Greater than one weekGreat price for this nice portable monitor! I’ve been looking for a portable monitor for a while, couldn’t make up my mind which to go with, with this nicely discounted price, I give this a try,it turns out beyond my expectations, good quality picture resolution and with a protective cover that also stands, love it!

> 3 dayThis is indeed a great monitor with excellent display parameters. I am able to connect it just to a single USB-C adapter with the provided cable. HDMI-to-mini HDMI is supplied too but is not necessary for me. The only problem with the monitor I have that if brightness jumping to 200 (this is what I read from OSD menu, the valid range is 0-10 though) upon connection/disconnection to a DOC station. But I am fine to move it back to normal 5 manually every time. It does not bother much.

> 3 dayI purchased this 60hz HDR 2.5K monitor to pair with my Dell 7670 Workstation which has built in HDR display. I wanted another screen of similar size also supporting HDR, which is why I purchased this. Im outlining my pros/cos as follows. I will update as I use this, though there is one con which may result in me returning the display if I cant figure out a solution. PROS: Deep blacks! When displaying all black, theres very little light bleed and it almost looks as if the display is off. Very nice. Great size and portability, especially only needing one USB-C cable for power and display. CONS: The cables stick out pretty far from the side of the display; a vertically oriented right-angle USBC cabled/adapter would go a long way toward protecting this port and making it look nicer. Its not a true 16:10 monitor as advertised, so it doesnt perfectly match the size of my workstation display. 16:10 will have an aspect ratio of 1.6, whereas this display is actually 1.5 (2520 pixels divided by 1680 pixels equals 1.5). Its not a *huge* deal, but it does mean the letterboxing in videos are slightly different between the two screens. Not a dealbreaker for me, but others may want to know. Also, I cant seem to turn off the low blue light which I assumed was user adjustable. When HDR is enabled, the option to adjust color/contrast/etc is greyed out. And enabling HDR after making color changes just reverts back to warm whites. Perhaps this could be corrected in a software update? And the biggest of all: In HDR mode, the display is VERY washed out....almost uncomfortably so when using spreadsheets, docs, webpages, etc; the display just looks like it has a grey film over it and I find myself squinting to see it better...almost like its doing some aggressive dithering or something. My native display is a gorgeous HDR display, so this is pretty disappointing. However, if I turn off HDR it looks great, I get crisp text, ok blacks, and a good bright white. Ive tried alternate cables (hdmi, different USB-C, using the supplied power adapter, etc)...nothing seems to work. Im going to keep researching this and try to figure out a workaround up until my return period; Ill update this post accordingly. Update 1: A couple weeks in and Im feeling less excited about this. There are times when the monitor just looks so dull/washed out, and I cant figure out what is making it do this. Colors lose saturation and it gets dimmer, and then will sometimes pop back to normal. Update 2: I reached out to the seller directly, and I am very impressed with their responsiveness and willingness to help. After a few back and forth messages, they offered a solution that works perfectly! Added 2 stars for that.

> 3 dayPurchased because I wanted a second screen for workflow and sometimes for entertainment. I have a Samsung Galaxy Book 13.3 and this screen compares very well to that. It isnt quite as bright as that Sammys OLED, but plenty good enough for daylight, with high contrast and bright colors. Thin and light, this screen is supremely portable. Plug, play, done. Ridiculously inexpensive compared to the performance quality. Absolutely recommended.

Greater than one weekThe USB-C cable may be faulty, because it works... sometimes. Works better on my work laptop (Dell) than my other work laptop (Samsung Book 360). Sometimes it detects a signal, and sometimes it just doesnt. May need an HDMI docking station, and if so, Im dropping another star. It doesnt work with my Samsung S7+ tablet, and not with my Samsung S20 Ultra... at all. WHEN IT DOES work, the video is good both in HDR and not in HDR. Speaker is tinny, but wont use it since Ill have laptop speakers... when it works.

Greater than one weekI bought this on sale and am using it as an external display for an iPad 11 Pro M2. Id say the image quality is very close to what Im getting on the iPad display! I didnt think 2.5k would be all that much noticeably better than 1080 on a 16in display, but its so good that Id trust it for photo and video editing as the main display. Ive only had it a couple weeks, so I cant comment on longevity, but so far... highly recommended!

> 3 dayThis display caught my eye because of the 3:2 aspect ratio. Initially, the native resolution and scaling was a turn off since it made the screen area much larger than on my MacBook Pro. And, anything other than the native, out-of-the-box resolution didnt look very good at all. However, using a Mac app called Better Display, I was able to set the default resolution to 1674x1116 with a 2x pixel density. Once I did this, it made everything so much better. Text and images scale great and the size of the display matches the height of my Macs display so the cursor moves from one display to another in a perfect line. This may not matter to most but it was huge to me. Colors look good, the on-screen controls work well to tune color reproduction to match my Mac and it gets exceptionally bright. I dont work in a bright environment or outside so I cant speak to that but for indoor use, maximum brightness is quite a bit more than I would ever need. Overall, aside from the initial resolution problem I was able to solve, I am incredibly happy with this display. So much so that I bought another one and absolutely love my mobile set up. The display is light, easy to stow in a backpack and the cover does a decent job of protecting the screen itself.

> 3 daySe los recomiendo mucho, al principio tenia mis dudas, la calidad esta excelente, no lastima, los colores muy buenos, y es muy ligero, mi iPad pesa más que el monitor, viene con múltiples cables de conexión, muy grata compra.

> 3 dayIm using this with my laptop as a third monitor for my office setup so no gaming or or any high demand activity. overall it is a great monitor for my purposes. I really like that you can use usb-c for both video input and power.
