UPERFECT 2K 120Hz Portable Gaming Monitor, 16 2560x1600 QHD Portable Monitor 500 Nits HDR FreeSync Laptop Monitor w/VESA & Smart Case Matte IPS Eye Care External Second Screen for Switch, Xbox, PS5

This is my 3rd ips portable monitor. The first was an expensive but well featured AOC, the IPS bight spots on that monitor were unforgivably bad. The second was a ViewSonic 15.6 inch IPS and its very good. I wanted a 2560 ish display and 120-144 hz IPS monitor replace the AOC for a mobile work bag. More pixels and good colors for work and high refresh rate so I can also game on it. For the price I paid $170+ tax this monitor is great, minimal IPS backlight bleed, pretty saturated colors and its nice and bright. The one issue for me is the display is set to 20/100 backlight by default and does not seem to remember this. I wish it was set to 100 by default. It seems to not wake up with my computer either. This is more of an annoyance than a deal breaker but thats the worst aspect for me

Pros: - Portable and lightweight, making it easy to move around. - Features 2K resolution with a 144Hz refresh rate for a smooth and crisp viewing experience. - No dead pixels, ensuring that the display is free of defects. - One of the few monitors available that offer both 2K resolution and 144Hz refresh rate. Cons: - Black levels are not as deep as nano/micro-IPS, resulting in less accurate dark colors. - Brightness resets to 20 when in standard mode and unpowered, which can be frustrating if youre not used to constantly changing settings. - To get a fixed brightness level of 80(ish), you have to set it to Movie mode, which may not be ideal for all users. This mode will persist even when the monitor has no power. - Has a maximum brightness of 500 nits, which may not be bright enough for some users in well-lit environments. In conclusion, this monitor is a great option for those who need a portable and lightweight display with high resolution and refresh rate. While it has some drawbacks, such as less accurate black levels and a reset brightness level, it remains a favorite among Redditors who praise its performance. Additionally, the customer service of this brand is exceptional, making it a worthwhile investment while having a fair price point. Overall, its a niche monitor with a specific use case, but for those who fit that niche, its definitely worth considering.

Looks great, cover does the job but isn’t particularly suited to adjusting the angle outside of a very small range. Power pass through works as expected. Controls are a little fiddly and the speakers are terrible. Vertical alignment needs a stand high enough to clear the cables or controls. If I could give it 4.5 stars I would these are all minor complaints but make it not quite a 5 star product.

Update - below you will see that I wrote that while the monitor is great the leather folding stand case that came with it was not. The case stand had an awful smell with it. Bottom line up front is UPERFECT customer service immediately came to the rescue to see what they could do to help the situation. Shortly after I wrote my review UPERFECT contacted me an asked what the problem was and I told them the case smelled nasty. They asked if I would take an aluminum desk style monitor stand in lieu of the leather case. I said thank you but I really need a replacement leather case for my travel needs instead. They said okay we will with work with you on getting a replacement leather case for me, but in the mean time we will send you the desk stand free of charge. I received the aluminum stand and set it up on my desk. This stands is sturdy and holds up my 16” monitor great! It is not flimsy and for an added bonus the monitor can stand can swivel to portrait or landscape with ease. Thank you UPERFECT! I few days later I receive the replacement leather and of course I gave it a smell test. Immediately it had the hint of the other cases smell. But this time it was not punget and smelled normal. I’m a happy camper! Would I buy from UPERFECT again? Absuloutly! Their Customer Service is the reason the five star rating is deserved. They read me Patricia review and immediately went to work with me to make it right. Thank you UPERFECT! I wanted a monitor that was not low end but didn’t want to spend the money on a high end 4k. This monitor meets all my expectations for use for office and personnel use. The packaging is great, it came with all the cables you will need. It can be powered directly from my laptop (no internal battery needed) using the USB-C port or if you need to free your laptop port the monitor can be powered and view using the supplied mini HDMI and the USB-C cables. It is a large 16” that’s is super bright and resolution, clarity and refresh rates that are top notch. What I don’t like is the protective case. It has a nasty smell! I wish I could have it replaced. I’m not sure what it is made of but it definitely smells bad!

Initial monitor did not save settings, and even with the brightness control set all the way up, was not very bright. Customer service replaced the monitor with another model that was also 2K, but only 60hz. This replacement model remembered its settings (hdmi with external power), and has two modes of brightness. When powered only from the USB-C along with the video signal the brightness is lower, maybe about 350 nits, but when powered (pass though power to the monitor first) the monitor is really bright. In addition the replacement model has a standard size HDMI connector and is lighter that the 120hz model. Kudos to the UPerfect Customer Support team for doing all they could to make a happy customer.

I bought this screen for the exact purpose it was intended for, to be mobile and functional. As an IT guy that frequently has to more or less carry a mobile lab around with him, this has not only been a great monitor for personal use, but has saved me in a pinch within the first week of owning it. My issues with it are miniscule. The mini HDMI is a very tight fit and I worry about the connections getting worn out from unplugging and plugging it back in, however I believe that an USB-C to HDMI adapter would work and would be a good alternative.

I loved the monitor, great picture quality, brightness (more than what I need), and refresh rate, and it comes with a protective cover. It started to develop some white spots on the screen after a couple of months then I contacted customer support and they were really great, fast, and helpful. They decided to send me a new monitor. It works great.

I highly recommend this portable monitor. Its lightweight, has a very high monitor quality, and it surpassed my expectations while in use. Ive used it as an extra screen while I work on code and run various database queries, I use it as my proof monitor when I run Lightroom or Photoshop for my photo edits, and Ive also connected my Nintendo Switch to it and used it as a large / higher quality monitor. 5 / 5 stars all around

Update : I liked the monitor so much, I bought a second one. Its been more than a month now since I started using the first one, and its proven to be a solid choice. I cant find any faults with this monitor. The image quality, clarity, brightness all areas that matter are very good. I like the slim bezels that makes it much easier to put multiple of these side by side. I rarely write reviews online but this one deserves a good reference so here is my experience: I use multiple monitors at all times unless i am on the go and have to work away from home. More screen real estate improves my productivity and is good for business, and once you get used to at least two monitors, its not easy to work on a single monitor for serious stuff. I had an Asus portable external monitor for a year and used it on my travels. After I lost this monitor, I bought a uperfect with a rotating stand. I thought the idea was cool. The monitor was OK but standard FullHD resolution didnt cut it for me. I have a 16 monitor with QHD resolution, so I returned that monitor and started looking for something that would match the resolution and size of my laptop screen This one looked good on paper so I ordered one. It comes with a standard packing with all the required cables included. The cover case is OK and the build quality is good enough. What really stands out is the image quality and especially the brightness. The image is crispy sharp, and this screen is even brighter than my 400 nits laptop built in screen. It is so good, Ill move the screens to make this my primary and the laptop screen to be the secondary display. For reference my laptop is LG Gram This might not have the latest and flash oled screen or super diamond cut body but does what its supposed to do perfectly. Highly recommended

I bought this monitor for my M1 Macbook Air to use as a second screen when I am traveling or when I need some more screen space for work. The screen connects to power and video thru USB type C. It is possible to power the screen with my laptop but only at about 75% brightness or below. During the day when I am outside and need 100% brightness on the screen I have to power the monitor separately. I talked to customer service about this limitation and they were very responsive and helped me understand why the monitor was doing this. I dont see this as a reason not to buy it, but it is good to know for when I am working outside for the day. I havent tested any of the HDMI functionality. The cords it come with are kind of short, so it may require buying a couple extra cables. The picture on the monitor is very crisp and clean. I dont notice a huge dropoff in quality when connected to my macbook air and moving items between screens. Build quality is very good, for being plastic and lightweight. The included case and stand is kind of flimsy but it works well enough. Overall it is a good second monitor and I would recommend it to anybody using it in that manor.
