Since 2020 I have become a fan of second screens, especially for video conferencing. But really a lot of what you maybe working on is often easier with a second screen. If you dont have one yet, or have never tried one, this appears to be a great, easy to use, second screen, or primary screen if you have something like a mini-computer. Although I do own a few computers, I am not a super tech guy, so this will be in terms I can understand. First off, this is super easy to use. It does come with a little instruction book, but didnt find that very helpful except how to use the case as a stand. But it does show how to hook up different devices to the screen. This does take a USB, USBC or HDMI output (and comes with those 3 cables). So at least some Apple devices, and an iPhone, will need an adaptor. For the laptops in my house, the USB C to USB C worked perfect. One end in the USB port on my laptop and into a USB C port on the monitor. Then you go to your home screen and right click to adjust the display settings. You can set it up as a second display of your monitor (so if you are sitting with a small group and just want them to see your screen, you can), or you can set it up as a screen extension up, down, left or right of your display. Some setups do need you to use a power input (comes with a wall wart and USB power cable), but my laptop USB C has enough power to power the second monitor. The extra power input is optional, or as needed, with some hookups, and required for some hookups. On the other side of the screen are three buttons for the settings. You can scroll through, adjust the brightness, sharpness, color, etc... This screen does have some little speakers, I did not get them to detect through my laptop, but did get them to work on a mini-computer with this as the only screen. They work, you can hear, but are not spectacular. If you want to listen to music, these seem very similar to most laptop speakers, adequate, but not good. Headphones, earbuds, or something else will make your experience much better, but if need to listen to a video call, these will work fine (or you can use the speaker so the laptop if that is what you are connected to). Picture quality is good, sharp, not crazy high resolution, but certainly as nice as my computer monitor. Again, I am not a tech expert, if you are a gamer and need something with a super high resolution or response rate this may not be your first choice. Even without the second power, on my computer, it is plenty bright to see in a room with regular light. Certainly if you have never used a second screen, not sure how it works, but seen others using them, this is a great screen. Easy to fold up and carry, easy to hook up, and works great. May not be the best on the market, but priced fairly, well built, and works as intended. In my opinion, that is a 5 star product.

This awesome monitor made me wonder why I was not using this more often or gotten this sooner. The portability and great resolution and features makes it simply an awesome accessory to my laptop. Often at clients offices using a small laptop monitor only made presentations difficult without turning around and looking at the screen or projector behind me - this plugins in just fine to my macbook and lets me mirror - share or extend my existing screen wonderfully. RECOMMENDED - get one you will not regret it. Sturdy and rugged to a point also - I keep it in my laptop bag and it gets tossed around a lot and had no issues at all.

This product is nice and portable. The only issue I have is it falls down when put on smooth surface like granite countertop so I have to put something behind it.

I love having a second monitor hooked up to my laptop, this item is perfect. Im an IT guy so this monitor works great for troubleshooting and config when Im out and about. The size is perfect, it fits in my backpack with all my other stuff. The display is clear and bright, I highly recommend this monitor.

Easy to use and ready to go out of the box.

If I could give it 5 stars just for the packing alone, I would, as they did a really great hob in the way they packed it. What I really like about this monitor is the picture quality and the ability to use it on the road. When Im shooting pictures or video with my DSLR, I use the monitor as a reference and the images just blow me away - its that good. Crisp, clear, bright, dark, etc. - everything you want in an inexpensive monitor for photography and video. Its very light and thin, has a VESA mount, which is rare for these types of monitors, and I can connect my phone to watch movies. As expected, audio is not the best as none of these thin monitors have good sound, so dont expect the sound to blow you away. To get the best image quality, play with the settings until you reach the levels you like - everyone has different tastes, so there isnt a killer setting that will please everyone. As previously stated, it comes well packed, with USB-C and HDMI cables and a power adapter. The cover is a very nice design as well that integrates with the body of the monitor. They sure do have a nice design team for their products, thats for sure. Overall, a very elegantly designed and great looking monitor which can be used on the road.

Ive charged it and I turn it on and it immediately goes to power saving mode then shuts off. Ive not been able to use it at all. What a waste. UPDATE: Customer service diligently contacted me regarding the issue I was having. Your device must be plugged in to the screen to make it stay on and work.. HOWEVER... previously when I was doing that a bunch of pictures with a bunch of numbers with bright colored lights were flashing all over the screen so of course I unplugged my phone not knowing what was happening to the screen or my phone. Customer service assured that the screen they sent me was still in testing mode and apologized for the inconvenience and was willing to replace it. They communicated quickly and well. I ended up turning it on and off and on and off many times. Eventually it booted itself past the testing mode and worked and works great! Im able to plug my phone into it and turn it into a computer screen! With my Bluetooth keyboard and mouse it really is the most convenient, simple, and light way to feel like your using a real computer. I watch Samsung TV on it in any room as it is very portable, browse the internet, and even work from it. I highly recommend and if you do end up getting one in testing mode rest assured they will work with you quickly as they have very responsive customer service.

This Monitor is a great choice for anyone who needs a reliable and high-quality external display for their laptop or computer. With its 15.6-inch size and 1080P IPS display, offers clear and vibrant visuals that are perfect for work or entertainment. One of the great features of this monitor is its 8-bit accuracy and 100% sRGB color gamut, which ensures that colors are displayed accurately and with great detail. The 1200:1 contrast ratio also helps to create deep blacks and vivid colors that really pop on the screen. Another great thing about this monitor is its dual full function Type-C and HDMI inputs, which make it easy to connect to a wide range of devices,like laptops, tablets, and gaming consoles. the reason I gave it 4 is because the build quality to be a little bit lacking,and it doesnt feel as sturdy or durable as some other monitors Ive used in the past. That being said, its still a great choice for anyone who needs a reliable and high-quality portable monitor.

This monitor comes well packaged. Includes all the cords I could need, along with a protective cover which doubles as a stand. All I had to do was plug in the monitor to power then connect my phone, and my phone was mirrored. Ditto, using as an extended or secondary monitor from my laptop or tablet. The colors are great. Im very pleased and impressed.

This monitor has a nice quality image and the internal speakers arent too bad either. I like the attached cover that doubles as a kickstand as well. It is plug and play ready through the USB-C connection to a compatible device, and supports an HDMI connection that works well with gaming consoles. Overall a very nice portable monitor.
