Why mobile phones have become more powerful than old laptops, but modern laptops are still made with active cooling?

I want a silent laptop, with passive cooling - without fans, which are even audible on a new laptop, and over time they make noise louder. They say that the architecture of processors is not suitable for mobile phones, but in my opinion, this has not been the case for a long time. Linux has already been made for all processors.

want to? buy. what's the question?
Apple now has air on passive cooling. I don’t follow others, but there are certainly options there.

Well, how many percent of Linux is there on the desktop? 2? 3? Who needs to make a laptop not for 97% of potential buyers, but for 3? Vaughn Apple decided to invest and switch to ARM on desktops. So again, they are more powerful, and therefore there is active cooling. Use your laptop as a phone - 90% without doing anything, even with the screen turned off, here the gaming laptop will not turn on the fans. And smartphones for games with serious cooling are coming, but because. There is no fan - they still heat up. There is no smartphone designed to work from 100% battery to zero at full capacity, and there are a mountain of such laptops, this is quite a normal situation for laptops "for work". Laptops for games generally use a battery like an uninterruptible power supply to go from one outlet to another.

Because in mobile phones the processors are on a castrated arm architecture with a castrated frequency. And even taking into account these facts, almost any more or less powerful percentage on the phone in the load starts to heat up wildly and throttling. From a desktop load, such a percentage will simply die stupidly. And x86-64 is still powerful and hot unfortunately.
And so that the cooler does not make a loud noise, you need to clean it regularly.
