Desktop is big and bulkier, while laptop is small and light.

On energy consumption, laptop consume less energy than desktop, which make it an ideal power saver.

Laptop is easier to be bring around, making it very convenient for people who needs to move around constantly. Meanwhile, desktop is hard to be carry around due to it's large size.

Until here it sounds like the laptop is better than a desktop.

However, desktop has it advantages too.

Desktop is relatively faster than a desktop, as due to it's size, it is able to provide near excellent air flow system to cool and maintain the desktop in moderate heat level, maintaining the efficiency of it.

Whereas for laptop, due to it's size, it is hard to have a powerful cooling system to cool it down, although there's external cooling system for laptops, it is still less efficient than the desktop cooling system - built-in cooling system.

Performance wise, laptop can hardly beat desktop, as desktop can be equipped with the most powerful hardware, while laptop will have it's limitation.

Well, both of them have their own pros and cons, and they both cater a different category of users.
