Solution

why not using jsut one model for cellphone and laptop and have a type_id property to distinguish between those? i think you'd be off the best with that.

you could then even create a method on the model or using a respository to get cellphones or laptops only.(Item::whereTypeId(Item::$TYPES->CELLPHONE)->get())

Try looking int single-table-inheritance - basically you define an abstract parent class and extend it with some specific subclasses that can encapsulate their unique attributes.
