Laptop consumes Desktop. 2-in-1 device uses Laptop. This is just my guess. Please confirm.

Hello. In your perspective, what would be the next major laptop competitor entering the market?

Laptops don't consume desktops.
They cater to three distinct markets and scenarios.
I own at least one of each type.
My Surface Go 3 2in1 won't ever substitute a desktop.
However, the desktop becomes useless when I'm on the go.

I would say the laptop has taken the place of the usual home desktop, indeed, but the desktop itself has also evolved and continues to offer two main cost options—budget office PCs or high-performance workstations for gaming.
Gaming laptops and mobile workstations are merely more advanced versions of these, leaving a distinct cost structure for standard gaming desktops.
Don’t forget about expandability and the ability to upgrade over time.

I prefer mini pcs as they offer better desktop-like performance. My favorite is the GTR mini bee link. If I were a student, combining them wouldn't be a bad idea.

Bee is considered a desktop. It's just really, really small.

This would better fit small form factor or NUC type devices.
Mini-PC was once a temporary standard, featuring laptop designs based on atoms and early flash storage. Typically measured between 10 to 13 inches. Existed before Chromebooks became widespread.
I remember a period when Dell had numerous units available at around $100 for any laptop priced over $1000. That’s how I ended up owning one.

I believe there might be a valid explanation for why a same configured 2-in-1 device is more expensive compared to a traditional one.
