That design is stretching the definition of "laptop" pretty far.


Desktop replacement laptops like that one are admittedly more mobile than real desktops, but the weight and thermals mean they can't be used the same way as a MacBook-sized machine: on a couch, on a plane, etc. They also can't last long on battery (the one you linked has a 330W draw on a 78 watt-hour battery?).


Those have desktop class high TDP CPUs in them. The distinction here is that this is a low(ish) TDP CPU intended for laptops where battery life matters.
