Hi. Thank you for your question. The main disadvantage would be the size of the screen. Although, this all depends on the level of magnification you require. A desktop magnifier is available in larger screen sizes, even up to 43"! Another one would be a desktop unit can have a built in x/y table. This is a platform under the camera that moves in all directions, allowing you to move the document you are reading more easily. If you would like to discuss these products in more depth, please do give us a call on 0800 0025555 or email us at enquiries@visionaid.co.uk and we will be happy to help.
