Obviously it will look better in PC due hardware leverage.
But I will always play Mobile games on mobile due to ease & portability.
Even using emulater in mobile is good experience like PSP emu etc

Laptops are definitely much more powerful than mobile SoCs (there are exceptions for sure).

Yes

Super Computer >> Laptop >> Mobile

If u want to play Asphalt in PC then plug-in a controller and enjoy.

To be honest, if you're using a laptop only for playing Mobile emulated games you might be going about this whole thing wrong.

Sadly due to high taxes on electronics, so high cost & low income (relative to developed countries), most Indians can't afford a gaming laptop or justify spending that much on a laptop.

So not an uncommon occurrence in India, many play PUBG mobile on laptop in India, heck streamers stream PUBG mobile from gaming PCs :duh2:

I was referring to ones gaming mobile stuff even after getting a laptop. There more than good number of free games on Steam, origin, etc that they can enjoy and are better than PUBG mobile.

That goes to marketing & peer pressure. I have been asked by many of my friends to play PUBG mobile or COD mobile, which I declined. I only play CoC on phones & don't like touch controls for a shooter after using KB+mouse for more than a decade.

Maybe because it can potentially cause depression in school children. Many likely play it nowadays because of stay at home orders.

Moreover, many of banned apps had some security vulnerability or other, so easier to justify maybe.

I am just speculating.

Comparing a smartphone and a laptop. At this stage, I think I would go for a Realme Narzo 30A.
