It's nice to see more options for gaming Mini PCs.
I do hope manufacturers will still make other form factors like the Minisforum G1 Pro and not just concentrate on cubes like the Steam Machine. Also, something more discreet and less gamery looking.
Is this better than a gaming laptop of similar specs? Seems like 5060 laptops can dip under 1000 usd often.
Depends on the gaming laptop. Some gaming laptops limit the TGP wattage so the GPU is operating at lower performance levels. Also, I don't know how noisy this cube is but laptops can get very noisy.
Mind, it's hard to find 5060 laptops for under $1000 nowadays. If you find a 5060 for $1000-1100, that's already a decent deal.
RTX 5060 Mobile, so this isn't as beefy as the ordinary desktop variant?
Yup. It's hard to fit high performance desktop cards at that size. Even the low profile Gigabyte RTX 5060 is 182mm long. Normal-size dual fan cards are usually 200mm or longer.

Depends on what you need, power limit of this is probably higher than those small laptops. But laptops are portable and have newer CPUs.
