For work I prefer laptops simply because they are more flexible, I can bring it into a conference room, take it to a quiet corner if my semi-open office is noisy, etc. The CPU power of any recent MacBook Pro has been more than sufficient for web and iOS development. On personal side projects: I enjoy working in cafes & libraries.
