Hard disagree. I can game anywhere I can get power, wireless mice are ridiculously cheap, mine weighs less than 5lbs, heavy compared to ultra lights but compared to a desktop that's literally nothing. If you're using the built in speakers on any device, you deserve the bad audio quality lol. My laptop's screen has no issues. 240hz, anti-glare, 1ms response time. This really should be about low end gaming laptops.

It’s possible to make good built in speakers. The MacBook Pros sound great, even the new iPads sound way better than you’d ever expect from such a thin device. My 13” M4 iPad Pro even has decent bass, it’s ridiculous.

Is it as good as a stand alone amplifier with two tower speakers? No, of course not. But I’m not bringing those along with me either.

Sure, but like you said you're not expecting top-of-the-line quality from tiny speakers. Mine are pretty decent too but I almost never use them as I get much better quality from just plugging in some good headphones.
