Sliding Mitre Saw with Laser Guide.

Is there a difference between that and a 'Cut off / chop saw' and if
so what please?

It can be swivelled to do angled cuts - both in the vertical and
horizontal plane. And because the whole saw slides can cope with wider
wood.
I have a similar old B&Q one - but with a 10" blade which will cut 12"
wide. I'd not like anything smaller. Of course it depends on what you do.
