> 3 dayI rarely write reviews here, but this thing is an all-time. I have a stack of mobile monitors that require a whole lot of cables and space. Buh-bye. This device is large and flat, with a clever cover/stand, an easy usb-c-to-c connection to your laptop for power and video, incredible little instruction manual, solicitous helpline, great all around. I bought mine for less than $100, which included all these things and a gift. It is quite mobile but I just ordered a second one for easier commutes. Even includes good cable connectors that might cost $40-odd to buy separately. Winner.

> 3 dayI have a new M1 MacbookPro and use this when I work at a coffee shop. I like that the monitor can be powered from my Macbook with only 1 cable. Thats right, just the laptop, monitor, and ONE cable and that is all that is needed! If I do need wall power, I only need to plug wall power into one of the two devices and the power flows from the Macbook-to-display or display-to-Macbook. Very convenient. It is surprisingly energy efficient. For example, today I started with my laptop at 100% charge and worked with this monitor powered by the laptops battery until I got to 75% charge. That was 90 minutes, which means I can get approx 6hr of use without being plugged into the wall. Thats pretty incredible. It has a matte, anti-glare finish which I really appreciate. I always have to buy matte screen protectors for my laptops to reduce glare, so I really appreciate that I did not have to do that here. I gave this 4/5 instead of 5/5 for 2 reasons: 1) They provide a cable with long straight ends. If you want to put the display right beside your laptop (and who doesnt?) there is no good way to set them beside each other without the cables getting in the way. Just ugly. The display is beautiful but the cables are ugly and awkward. I bought a braided nylon USB-C 3.2 cable with 90 degree on both ends and the problem is solved. I just wish it would have come with that cable. 2) The display looks nice overall but doesnt have that wow factor in terms of picture quality that my Macbook does. That is to be expected I supposed, because it is 1080p, but if Im going to give something 5/5 I want to feel wowed by the product experience. One caveat (and this isnt really an issue with the display) is that any cable you use to connect to your Macbook must support video. Most USB-C cables do not. If you search for USB 3.2 cables or USB4, all of them are supported as far as I know. But USB-C is a generic term about the size of the cable end and has nothing to do with the cables capabilities. Im sure many of you know that, but for those who dont I hope to save you some hassle! Customer support is great! They answered my cable questions in <12 hours.

> 3 dayThis monitor works perfectly for my laptops and is so super easy to use. No set up needed; just plug in the USB-C cords and it works. It also comes with all the cords you could need to be used with a laptop, already in the box. The magnetic cover/stand is easy to use as well.

> 3 dayI like the monitor and like the built in stand. However the screen was very fragile when my boyfriend went to pack it in and broke it against the cords that were in the case too.

> 3 dayI purchased this portable monitor to use with my Lenovo ThinkPad for work while traveling. Having 2 screens is essential to my job functions. I was debating between an extendable monitor that attached right to my laptop but I decided to purchase this option after reading reviews that it is hard on the hinge. I am very pleased with it being plug and play (I use the thunder cord USB-C to USB-C) so I dont need a separate power cord. I do want to caution it will drain the power from the laptop so make sure it is fully charged if you are using this option. The kickstand is very adjustable for different angles and there is a brightness toggle one the side of it. The picture is crisp and bright and I am very happy with the monitor, wish I would have ordered one sooner.

> 3 dayAfter a couple of days using this portable monitor I am very satisfied. The contrast and color quality of the screen is outstanding. It is very light, so it is very convenient for traveling and working during a business trip. I liked very much all the options for connection to the PC or laptop. You have an HDMI option for video, power supply through wall power, or directly from the laptop through USB type A, and connected to the USB type C to the monitor (this is how I am using it and it works perfectly), or power and video simultaneously through USB type C. All wires are provided, which is great. I truly liked the cover protector, very convenient for transportation. I highly recommend this product.

Greater than one weekBought this for the purpose of programming alongside lectures. So for my purposes it works perfectly. Was very easy to set up just plug it in automatically starts working. Hooked it up to my Macbook Air 2020. Had to adjust the screen resolution. Came with usb-c cords, hdmi cords, adaptor and charging cords. The ports are on the right of the screen so keep that in mind depending on where you plan to position the screen. The monitor is ultra-lightweight. Loved that there is no brand name on the monitor. The design is sleek and modern. I will say the case is finicky and will slide off as it is not attached to the monitor. It is magnetic so be careful about that. Its only been less than a day but so far Im very satisfied with my purchase.
