> 24 hourTook a few minutes to figure it out since Ive never used multiple monitors before, but no problems after that. Folds up to the size of a very thick laptop, and includes a case to protect the screen. Not exactly light at 3.1 lbs, so I dont carry it in my computer bag unless I really think I will need it. Color looks ok and I like it so far.

> 24 hourThis thing is awesome!! I installed it and since I had a true usb-c port the pc powered it just fine. The drivers even automatically installed when I turned the pc on. The resolution is great and the screens are way beyond anything I could have imagined. I love it. There is, however, one caveat. It appears they put so much effort into designing the most awesome monitor attachment ever made, then just went totally generic on the stand that helps hold the monitor up. I mean seriously you just pull it out and spin it a little to lock it. In my first 5 minutes of using it I had to reposition the kickstand twice. I finally used a piece of tape to hold the little flap that keeps it from retracting in place so that I could get my work done. The designed such an awesome piece then crapped out on one of the most important aspects to an item of this nature.

> 24 hourI love having multiple screens when I work; my laptop screen just isnt big enough. It is so convenient not having to toggle back and forth so much. At first I thought no way are tiny screens going to work, however after following the setup instructions and adjusting the resolution, it was truly amazing. Now when I travel and work I have the ability to work as if I was in my office with multiple monitors. It does add a little weight that can pull down the screen if not correctly balanced but an easy thing to manage.

> 24 hourI love this triple screen. I have had one before, but that one needs 4 connectors to my computer (2 chargers, and 2 HDMI cables). It was annoying. But this one, OMG, one cable for charging and connecting.. Because of my work, I need to open multiple files and refer to each other, so this is a time saver for my work. Whats better is that it comes with a travel cover, which makes it more portable to travel with. So you wont worry the screen will get scratched. And its light, so you wont worry too much when traveling. And all you need is a C-type outlet to plug in. I cannot wait to show it to my friends.

> 24 hourShort version: this does work on macOS over a single cable, it uses Silicon Motions Instant View (its basically display output over USB, and is similar to DisplayLink) so it does need a driver for it to work. I was able to test this with a 2016 Macbook Pro 15 and a 2016 Dell XPS 13; this thing is too large for 13in laptops, but 14in should be okay. It includes a microSD card reader that out of the box comes with a small microSD card that contains the Instant View drivers. The display themselves are okay for 1080p60hz, just keep in mind the angles I have in the picture is as far as they will go towards the keyboard. I wouldnt call this thing portable however, it takes some time to deploy and honestly just get a larger (16in 4k) portable monitor and save yourself some money while youre at it Long version: I got this since I was expecting to be more on-the-go for work, and I always need extra screen space. I was aware that it would use Silicon Motions Instant View for macOS compatibility over a single cable (macOS doesnt support Displayport MST, which means that it needs software solutions to support 2 displays over a single cable; in this case, Instant View is a competing implementation similar to how DisplayLink works, which is display output over USB). The build quality is good. The whole thing comes with a faux leather wrap, and the plastic itself despite feeling a bit light, doesnt feel too flimsy with a pretty durable ratchet to adjust width. This thing is too big for a 13in laptop like the 2016 Dell XPS 13 I tested this with, but for 14in laptops and larger it should have no problems; the 2016 15in Macbook Pro has no problems. Theres a small stand that leans on the back because otherwise any laptop (except something like a super heavy mobile workstation/gaming laptop) would tip over from the weight. The viewing angles actually work okay, but doesnt lean together towards the keyboard too much. In terms of practical use, it aint good. Its very cumbersome to deploy, and youre only getting 2 small 1080p displays. In comparison, you can just get a 15in or 16in portable monitor and just have an easier time; this is actually what I was using before (I have a 16in 16:10 4k portable monitor), and in fact it is far more easier to use and is far more portable than this thing. Maybe say if youre always going to different places but sit at a single spot in the place for an extended period of time, maybe this will work, because setting it up and then packing it up is quite the task. It does come with 2 USB-C to USB-C (one end is 90-degree angled) cable, a USB-C to USB-A cable, and a 5V3A charger; this is for if youre connecting to a laptop over the USB-A cable, or if the USB-C port on the host laptop doesnt provide enough power for the 2 displays. Because this uses Instant View, it doesnt count towards a GPUs supported number of displays count. So say if youre connecting this to a M1 Macbook Air thats normally limited to a single display output, you can use this, and then still have that 1 display output for something else. This also means that for Macbooks with dGPUs, because the display output is over USB instead of DisplayPort, it doesnt activate the dGPU (which might have some power savings advantages despite having to run the Instant View drivers) The price of this is quite an issue. At the time of this review, its $600 with a $100 discount. A 16in 4k monitor can be had for around $200 to $250; you can get 2 of those for the price of this thing. Its not very easy to pack/unpack, its quite heavy, the size is awkward to carry around in a backpack (its very square). However by using Instant View, you can use this in macOS with a single cable. If I remember these dual-monitor laptop things are subject to some lawsuits on the original manufacturer that created the design, so to some extent I also doubt the legitimacy of this product. At the end of the day, it has its flaws, but it does work. Just keep in mind of your use case, a portable monitor is probably 99% of the time a superior solution and a better use for your money.

> 24 hourIf you need multiple monitors with a portable option these do work nicely. They install quickly and quite securely, you will need to use the kickstand on a MacBook, but my laptop can support the added weight just fine. Setup is quick and the monitors come online quickly they work well mirrored or extended, and so far when disconnected and reconnected my devices remember my settings, I am not sure I would count on that but it seems to be the case the few times I have used them.

> 24 hourThis dual monitor add on for laptops is REALLY cool. So far, the only complaint I have is about the weight of the item, but I understand this is mostly due to the battery. I had no troubles hanging it on the back of my precision laptop - Im incredibly thankful that it has a kickstand to keep the monitor up from the extra weight. The battery lasts for a good amount of time - gets even better if the brightness is lowered a bit.
