CopGain 12 Portable Monitor for Laptop Screen Extender for 13.3 MacBook, Designed for MacBook Screen Extender FHD 1080P IPS Display Plug and Play P1M

I switch my worksites often as an estate realtor. This external screen is such a great helper for me. I use extended mode for my PPT and spreadsheets and mirror mode for demonstration to my clients. Very slim, fit into my laptop bag very well.

A high quality portable monitor for Mac users. Enjoy my extra display now.

Been looking for a portable monitor for my work laptop so I can more easily use it outside of my home office and was excited to run across this. However... this screen is really heavy and cumbersome. It was difficult to affix to my laptop and kept falling off, until I found a better temporary adhesive to keep it on without it slipping. The screen is also quite dim, even after I tried to adjust the brightness. All in all, Im a bit disappointed.

The CopGain is a beautiful piece of equipment. It was delivered in a lovely box with good protection. Yet, even the box it was in looked high-speed and sleek. I was even impressed with how the CopGain was arranged in its box. Everything was laid out elegantly and logically. Even the included instructions are explicit, well righten, and have some handy graphics. Before trying to install CopGain, I suggest you read the instructions carefully. You are given a couple of options as to how to proceed. Also, while not incredibly complicated, you want to install the CopGain correctly to get the most out of it. Now once installed... It is just a beauty to behold; having that extra-screen real estate available at the flick of a panel is so addictive. The way it is integrated into your MacBooks frame makes it feel like it was included in the design from the start. However, you do need to be aware of two issues with the CopGain. First, be mindful that the CopGain is only 1080p or just HD resolution. If you are doing any kind of graphics-intensive work, looking from the resolution of the MacBook screen to the CopGain and back again can be a little disorienting until you get used to it. The other thing you want to be mindful of is that the CapGain does use a precious USB-C port. It is worth their compromises, but you dont want to be surprised by them.

This is a nifty second monitor for a laptop. It works really well and is detected well by my Macbook. The real issue I have with this is that Ive had trouble getting it to stay attached to my laptop. The adhesive is pretty good, but I think overall the setup is just a bit fragile. That might be because of the way I use it. Overall, though, if I can get it to stay on, it will be great. Not having a second monitor is one of the things I hate most about using a laptop. Theyre convenient, but working on one screen is difficult for me. This makes that not be an issue. Once I figure a way around the adhesive issue (which Im pretty sure is my fault) Ill use this all the time. Sure, it doubles the weight of my laptop, but I can manage for an extra screen.

It fits nicely and helps out when I need a second monitor. It does add some weight to the laptop but its expected when adding another screen. The resolution is 1080 but at that resolution then the text is microscopic so the recommended is some other screen size that I didnt like. Its ok on brightness but nothing to write home about. I do like how it can stand up vertical if taken off the back of the laptop which is pretty cool. It comes with a metal screen protector and a nice fabric type one. Both have magnets and stick magnetically. Its pretty good if you need a second screen and dont want to carry two separate things.

If youre in need of an extra monitor while on the go with your MacBook, this portable monitor is perfect. The slim and lightweight design of this monitor makes it incredibly easy to carry around, and it even comes with metal and leather protectors for safe transport. This monitor is a great option for working remotely without any extra bulky cables.

Its a valuable tool that elevates my educational journey and makes using technology in my studies a delightful experience

Love the way it connects to my Macbook, simple connection method. Wonderful display quality.

Works very well on my MacBook 13.3. You can tell it’s something worth your money. Very high-quality design. And no more image freezing on iPad sidecar, much better than Apple’s solution. One cable and it just works.
