12000mAh? At what voltage? 3,7-4,2V? ~12V? That number alone is not enough to show how much power is in that battery.
Laptops use either 3 or 4 cells with 10.8V or 14.4V, phones run with 3.7V...

At their homepage they write, that the powerbank can charge an iPhone 15 Pro 2.2 times. So the voltage is probably just ~3.7V or less.
But to charge a 3290mAh phone battery just 2.2 times, shows that you lose quite a bit of those 12000mAh...
That is why such mAh numbers are not good and confuse customers.

Dug up some tech specs and added to the end of the news post. Their US site is down, but found it elsewhere.
It appears to offer 7000 mAh at 5V/3A.

The efficiency is not at all impressive. Look at the specs, only 7000mAh.

How can a product be called a "Laptop Power Bank" when even the cheapest office laptop has a battery capacity greater than 35Wh?

It's main features are its thinness and max power output for fast charging. Nowhere it is written it has higher power density, there is no consumer breakthrough for battery power density.
What else would you expect ? It has the capacity of a 328 grams battery = not a lot

You and I may not like it (frankly, it's stupid), but by convention power banks are rated for capacity not in Wh but in mAh assuming average 3.7 V for the cells, so 12 Ah * 3.7 V = 44.4 Wh
That's, also by convention, just battery capacity before voltage conversion losses, and actually useful capacity is on the order of 80%, so in this case about 35 Wh - which is what it says on the tin specs page.
Fortunately, powers stations started to state their battery capacity in Wh, so maybe we're headed in a better direction.
OTOH, industrial energy storage capacity is still usually rated in MW (sic), because they usually (but not always) assume 1C charging/discharging, so 2 MW "capacity" usually means 2 MWh capacity.

Edit: I guess "laptop power bank" name is less because of the capacity but more power output rating. 65 W is enough for most office laptops or handhelds - and actually rare for low capacity (meaning: light) power banks. That said, I'd still get their 65 W 20'000 mAh (i.e. 74 Wh) version, as it's just 35% heavier but has 66% more energy and is more pocketable.

Laptops are now so thin and compromised that you need a power bank for your laptop?

Jesus, this industry is so dumb sometimes. Just make the laptop 2mm thicker - hell that would even give you room to squeeze in an HDMI port or a USB-A port....

/facepalm.

Dumb? Now they're selling an overpriced, easy to break laptop AND a power bank...

Similar things occurred with phones. They were fat and you could break a floorboard with a Nokia at some point.
Now they're thin and we surround the phone with protective materials to make it fat again, we charge them daily or we carry a powerbank. Thank goodness we have compact phones now. And an extra charger for the road. And a case. And powerbank.

Most vulnerable part of a phone, the screen. So let's design foldable, bendable, and around-the-edge screens! Let's make the back out of glass, too! I could probably add another page of interesting developments in tech.

No, but there are situations when you don't have access to a power socket and need to top up your laptop. Happened to me quite a few times in school, since only half of the seats in the classrooms had access to power sockets.

You reminded me of my old Ericsson 628, which you could get a high-capacity batter for that lasted a week or more on a single charge. Plus I modded it with a side flip antenna for better signal as well.
