It depends on what your current laptop is. There have been some pretty amazing strides over the past few years in laptops. There are some super power houses such as the one I own that actually uses desktop CPU (8 full cores) and GPUs. On the other end of the spectrum I am very surprised and happy with how excellent the Microsoft Surfaces have been.
We use some for our engineers and field compliance officers and they out perform our new Dell desktops in the office and they just seem to keep going and going. I recently retired some Surface Pro 1's (yes the first generation machines). They all still worked fine, I was able to restore and update them to current levels of Windows, but they have just become outdated hardware. But dam, they still worked even though they had been beaten up on pretty bad out in the field.
I absolutely love my Surface Pro 6 which I use both as a Roon controller and as a secondary computer. I take this with me on trips rather than bringing my larger laptop. Pretty remarkable machine. Surface Pro 7 and 7+ are out now (I just bought one for a new engineering coming soon at work).
