> 3 dayIf youre like me and still have a VGA backup monitor in your closet for just in case, this monitor is the upgrade backup youre looking for. Ive tested it with my Nintendo Switch, and can run both off of my power bank. You have to detach the joycons or use a pro controller, because the joycons will keep toggling the charge if theyre attached. I tested it by going straight USB-C from the 2080 in my desktop - it worked immediately as a second monitor and took power straight from the GPU, no extra cords required. My final test was on my laptop - I plugged it into the USB-C port and it immediately gave me a mirrored desktop. Toggle the windows display settings to Extend, and youve got a fully functional second monitor. Theres a two year warranty on this thing, so I feel pretty comfortable tossing out the old VGA backup monitor (and all of the related cables from that era) and moving forward with this as a backup.

> 3 dayBought 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.

> 3 dayI recently purchased this monitor to upgrade to a portable monitor that supports USB-C since my computers dont have enough USB-A ports anymore to support my old portable monitor. Its great being able to connect and power the monitor all through one cable. Also, I LOVE the integrated stand on this model and that it supports different viewing angles! Setup has been a cinch—its basically plugnplay. The only adjustments to the monitors settings that Ive needed to do is adjust the brightness occasionally. Doing so was intuitive without using any instructions. The only snag I ran into was connecting through my Microsoft Surface Dock 2 via USB-C—my Surface Book 3 was unable to recognize the monitor when plugged in through the docks USB-C port. However, it worked fine when I connected it directly to the USB-C port on the laptop itself (I seem to only be able to connect to this portable monitor when its plugged in though, because it disables the connection to the other desktop monitors plugged into the back of the dock). I dont think any of that is due to this monitors capability, however, so thats not reflected in my rating, just something I thought others may want to be aware of (i.e. I think this is a limitation of Windows and/or the Surface Book 3 not being able to connect a 3rd external monitor, at least not through the dock. I presume the mini-HDMI to HDMI port on my dock would work, but I did not try this since I already have two monitors connected to the dock. (I didnt buy this monitor to be used at my desk anyway, so this is all inconsequential to me). Great monitor for portability, Im happy with my purchase!

> 3 dayI work remote and choose to travel often for pleasure. This monitor has exceeded my expectations and is better than my home office monitor since it’s spacious. I didn’t have to read the directions and easy to set up. I used a dongle to connect to the monitor.

> 3 dayI was a bit hesitant and skeptical about how well this thing would work when I first purchased it, but so far it has exceeded my expectations! I purchased it in lieu of a second monitor for my laptop because 1) I wanted something I could take with me to use outside of my apartment, and 2) my boyfriend didnt want a permanent standing monitor at our desk because our desk is tiny. So I opted to get a portable, foldable one instead, and I am SO happy with my choice! I fits in my backpack or any work-like bag, and it works well so far with my Macbook Air laptop. The screen/picture quality is good, not great, but that doesnt bother me at all since I just needed a second screen to get my law school work done on more than just my laptop screen. I love it and would recommend as a 2nd screen/monitor!

> 3 dayI recently purchased a monitor, and had to return it due to it, not working with all of my computers. And I purchased this one to have a remote experience while working, but needing two monitors, and I love that it came with it so many chords, and it works with a Mac and Windows computer with no problem. I would recommend this brand due to having nice adapters and support if anything did not work with your monitor.

> 3 dayI needed another monitor screen while traveling and came across the Cocopar Portable Monitor while searching online. It was getting great reviews and I needed something compatible with my MacBook Air M2. It was delivered in perfect condition and I was surprised as how big the monitor actually is, yet still a great size for traveling. It will fit perfectly in my backpack with my laptop. The hookup was incredibly easy and I only needed the USB-C to USB-C to connect to my MacBook Air. The image is fine as I only need it to for an additional monitor and not gaming use. Definitely worth the price and I would recommend this to anyone who needs an extra monitor for traveling.
