Good so far - the case adds extra weigh
Once I read the instructions about where to plug everything in, it worked great with my Mac! It was easy to adjust the brightness also. The way the magnetic case folds to be somewhat adjustable is so much better than other case-stands I have used before.
The main drawback is that the weight listed is somewhat misleading and only accounts for the actual monitor, not the case, which is almost equally heavy (total about 2.7 pounds together). Still portable, but a significant extra weight when carrying other computer equipment when travelling. I got a plastic portable stand to use with it instead when I travel.
5.0 out of 5 stars Just what i needed
Good quality screen, easy to carry, perfect to use on the go
5.0 out of 5 stars Very good produc
Good product. Easy to set up. Good quality, make office work easy as second screen. I can just recommend.
Game changer for remote work and travel - this portable monitor is a must-have!
“Easy to carry, yet delivers incredible image quality. The perfect companion for those who work in different places or those who want to enjoy a larger screen on the go. Highly recommended!”
Top!!
Super Fast delivery! It’s light and easy to install, works well, colours and brightness are ok and you need just one cable to connect your laptop or mobile. On the top of it 2 years warranty from the company!
Nice bit of ki
Great ,Does what it made for, nice bit of ki
Perfect!
Brilliant monitor, looks fantastic and is compatible with almost everything. Got this to use when on the go or when hanging with my friends during a gaming session. Easily fits into my bag along with Ps5/Xbox, No longer need to lug around a big monitor.
Almost perfec
This particular item (probably just a problem with mine) has a slight defect that applies gentle pressure to a small area of the bezel. As a result, on a completely black screen you can make out a vaguely lighter patch right at the edge of one of the corners, which is not noticeable at any other time. A little disappointing, but it’s honestly not worth sending it back over because I’m getting daily use out of it and it’s really great.
Display and sound quality
This portable monitor is perfectly fine at home and in the office but the sound quality is not what I expect. If the manufacturer could update the sound system. it would be good news for the future buye
Surprisingly good for the cash.
I bought this screen to give me the option of a 2nd screen for my MBPs while on the go, or hot-desking in the office.
I’ve tested with both a 2019 (Intel) and 2020 (M1) MacBookPro and it works out of the box. Simply connect the single USB-C to USB-C cable between the screen and the MacBook, and within a few seconds the screen displays. Note: On the Mac, initially, the screen will look grey and washed out, simply disable High Dynamic Range in the MacOS display settings and the screen will come to life (This is a MacOS problem and not a problem with the screen, I’ve had to do the same on my other monitors)
The screen and resolution are perfectly clear enough to code on. I tested a few YouTube video clips to test, these also looked perfect fine.
As for the sound, it’s ok. Probably on par with a cheap bluetooth speaker. It works, but don’t expect to be blown away.
I’ve also tested with the Nintendo Switch, as I was curious if it’d work. I did spend a little time reading through the Q&A section getting mixed answers. Does it work with the Nintendo Switch? Yes. You’ll need power plugged into the screens ‘power’ USB-C port (either via the supplied cable and plug, or via a power bank), and then plug a USB-C to USB-C cable into the screens data USB-C port, and you’re good to go. Just to note, although the charging symbol was displayed on the Nintendo Switch, I saw a small amount of battery drain, so I don’t think this will keep the Switch charged (like the dock does), however I suspect you’ll get a good couple of hours of ‘portable’ play, on a lot larger 1080p screen.
For the price, really good value.
I regret not buying one before...
A second screen while you are travelling by work is more than welcome, so I regret a lot not grabbing one of these before. This one is easy to use and the quality is amazing – I have used and abused of it since the purchase and have had no issues at all – so, very happy with the item.
Great for cctv
I have this for my DVR for my CCTV and it folds flat when not in use , great purchase
Excellent for business!
Before I opened this the first thing I noted was the excellent packaging!
Unpacking just became better still – excellent quality product with nice set of accessories (cover, cables and charger)
Now I’m using the screen daily and I love it! Absolutely recommend this product if you are looking for a portable 2nd screen!
I have bought this for my daughter …. Now she’s 9! I don’t want her to have a TV that can access TV yet! But a monitor … I can deal with!!! I’ve linked it up to my phone and I can control what’s she watching!!!! Boom!! Sound and picture is banging too!!!
I am enjoying being able to watch films from any angle as the viewing angle will not affect my viewing experience! It has excellent image quality (19201080 Full HD IPS Screen Display) for gaming, watching films or even streaming your favourite series on netflix. sometimes you want to plug your phone in and see it on a bigger screen!! Have no worries peeps, this thing works in landscape and portrait!! Which makes it so versatile!! extending your phone screen also means that you can wathc and play movies or games on a real sized screen while on traveling. One great thing for me is that gou can connect your devices to monitor through Type-C or HDMI cable to play nearly anything through it… including your ps5!! And if I have to be honest the price is good for the spec of the screen.. thumbs up
Great Display
Fantastic monitor to enable me to run an extended desktop on my laptop. Makes life so much easier. Seems to be of decent quality, came with all the cables required. Fits snugly inside to laptop bag too. Good purchase.
Convenie
Great picture and video quality.
No buffer with video.
You can charge phone when connected with battery charger to screen.
Sound needs improving as it varies with different devices connected.
Sound through Headphones ok thou.
Perfect multi-tasking scree
I use this to extend my screen to read academic papers as I’m writing, and for general multi-tasking when I’m away from my office.
It’s actually not bad for media use either, quite surprised by the quality for the price.
Really lightweight and easy to pack along with my laptop.
I use it with an Acer swift 3. For this laptop, I use a hdmi to mini hdmi to connect to the screen, as it doesn’t have the capability to use the usb-c option.
I would recommend this portable screen.
Wouldn’t usually bother leaving a review but I’m just so pleased with it I felt I had to. I wanted to be able to tidy everything away at the end of each day as I work from home so don’t want a big ugly monitor sitting on my desk permanently, so bought this and it’s absolutely perfect. Resolution is just as good as my laptop (Thinkpad T480) and it’s so quick to set up, out of the box and up and running within about 30 secs. Just to note, I did ask the seller if it was compatible with my T480 and they told me it was only compatible with a specific Thinkpad model, but it works absolutely fine with mine! Suspect I’ll be the envy of all my colleagues when I do go into the office and they’re all trying to work from one little screen and I whip this out!
Simple to use, wish it was more adjustable
Bought this to use as a portable second screen for work. Using the included USB C to C cable for a one-cable solution works great, quick setup.
Picture quality is fine, nothing to write home about but nothing to complain about either.
My only complaint is that I wish the cover/stand had a few more steps of adjustability. I find it’s either angled too little or too much when using i
4.0 out of 5 stars Good Value, Does what it says on the tin!
It does exactly what it claims, and at a good value price. Very happy so far!
Original review: It was good while it lasted, a month or two. Then I opened it one morning and the screen was cracked and broken all over, on the inside though not the outside. No idea how it happened because I’ve been using it everyday and didn’t have an issue, always handled it delicately precisely because it was a big help, since my MacBook screen is tiny (11.5 inches lol). Shame on me for having already discarded the box, as I cant get my hands on a box big enough to package is safely and ship it back for a replacement, though I will endeavour to source one for a little while longer because the 1-year warranty hasn’t ran out yet.
Edit: I managed to send the monitor back to the manufacturer and they’re sending me out a replacement, as it is still within the warranty (what a lifesaver that is!). So hopefully all should be good. Very helpful and responsive customer service.
Good screen, poor sound
I’m please with the screen, i’m a mobile person and need the second screen for productivity and due to me traveling quite a bit, this is deal. Sound is really poo
Pleasantly surprised at this price point.
Sturdy, apparently good quality screen at this price point. Settings menu does take a while to get used to.
My major gripe is the diabolical case, where one needs PhD in origami to figure out how to make it stand and not collapse while it is supporting this quite hefty screen.
Cables were too small for me.
Had to spend extra money on a longer power cable and hdmi cable. This would be fine if it’s going to be right next to your device, but if you were buying it for a 2nd or 3rd monitor for a desktop pc you’ll want longer cables.
When I did get it up and running the next day though it looked fine, I would purchase another one in the future
Nice quality brushed metal case. A bit heavier than the all platic ones but worth it. Included cables are good quality but could do to be a bit shorter. If your usb c is fully featured thunderbolt (lightning bolt symbol) the included usb c to usb c cable will be all you need. If you only have basic usb c or just usb you need a full-size HDMI socket on your laptop. A HDMI to mini-HDMI cable is included. Power is then provided via the usb c or old style usb on your laptop, the cables are included. There is a usb power plug included as well as a further option. I used this screen with both types of connection and both were instant plug and play. My only slight gripe is that the screen takes over the sound as well but is not as good as the laptop. There’s probably a way of transferring sound back to the laptop, just haven’t sorted it yet. The wrap over cover provides good protection in transit but is not very good as a stand other than the screen in an almost upright position. All in all, and excellent product at one of the cheapest prices.
Nice picture, very convenient for travel and work optimization.
It is a nice screen and very reasonably priced. It is excellent when connected to USB C as then the power and picture is supplied all down one cable, meaning nothing else to plug in, the picture is bright and sharp, but I haven’t used it for gaming. I still have not gotten it to work any other way even with VGA and USB-C to power it. Also don’t forget that if you have a device like a Surface Go 2 with only one connection you then cannot use USB tethering at the same time. I have a Samsung Galaxy Tablet and it doesn’t work with it either. I find the sound quality inferior to my Surface Go 2.
I would only buy if:
1. You have a device with a USB-C connection.
2. Ideally you will mostly use Wi-fi and/or have multiple connectors on your device.
Great reasonably priced product, but be aware of it’s limitations.
Bought to use instead of the faulty screen in the unreliable MacBook pro
My expensive 16″ MacBook Pro has had 2 screen based problems the latest apparently because of a cable but because it is integrated with the screen not worth bothering to repair again.
I bought this so I can continue to use the computer. This screen looks good and works instantly with the USB connection.
I recommend it.
The battery life is reduced but I would expect that, and at least I can use the computer again.
I can’t comment on its suitability for gaming since I don’t do any.
Great screen, great price
Love the screen. It does what it says it does. Connects with ease to my laptop and MacBook as well as my console. So very happy. Great product and
Lovely bit of ki
This is a lovely monitor.
Clear image, and a thin bezel. The stand is very handy, and I’m using it as a third monitor sitting on my desk beneath my other two that are on a monitor stand. Will be useful for travel as well, as the stand folds over to cover the screen.
It’s powered by USB-C as well, so you can actually power it from your phone if you ever feel the need!
So good I don't know why anyone would pay more
This is a really good monitor. No flicker, good colour and the case is great. The case was a deal breaker for me – I can’t understand why anyone would want a ‘portable’ monitor without a case, and this is fab. The only downside is I now need a bigger laptop case!
Well made, screen quality good, tidies away rather nicely.
2 weeks in and this is working really well as a second monitor attached to my laptop. I appreciate being able to fold the monitor down and pack it way in a drawer of an evening leaving me with a clear table for dinner.
The image quality is excellent for office work, I don’t game, and the monitor is well made. I suggest adding a monitor stand – I use the one for my iPad – i’m sure the cover is adequate but it did place the monitor too low and so replicated my issue with the laptop screen. a small additional expense but worth it.
A doddle to set up using USB-C and then runs nicely without the need for a second power cable.
excellent purchase of my purpose.
Just what I needed!
Great product. I’m an animator and prefer to work on 2 screens. This is the perfect solution to taking my 2 monitor workflow on the road! Great device would recommend.
Great little monitor high quality
I like the quality of the picture and that it supports hdr although it’s not hdr10
Excellent second, or third ;) monitor!
Excellent second monitor (well third for me) I use this monitor with my gaming rig to display my pc current loads on GOU and CPU and also display the temps. It works excellently and looks so cool!
My partner also has used this as a second monitor for her laptop when studying in coffee shops (requires being plugged in to use). This comes with a plug put a power bank can easily run this device for hours.
The picture quality is excellent for the money. Crystal clear picture and very responsive. The monitor has built in speakers but like most devices phones and tablets these are just enough and won’t blow you away but still handy on the go!
The build quality is very sturdy and definitely designed with portability in mind.
Would I recommend to others? 100% this is excellent value for money
Awsome portable display
Im using this display for few months now for work, gaming and watching some tv series. Its working atleast 12h a day and no problems with it! a charger stoped working, so they have send me a replacement. 2 in fact. It easly runs on usb-c so if you have a free spot in your laptop that will do aswell.
Clear colors many resolutions
I bought this monitor to be able to work with my laptop anywhere I want. I really like the connectivity of this screen and does come with quality cables that enable seamless experience.
I tried it with few devices and I found it very compatible. It has many colours and resolutions you can choose and personalise your experience.
Satisfied with the battery too.
Nice Widescreen Monitor for increased producitvity
I had 2 monitors at home but needed one more. but I did not have bigger desk so I decided to go for a portable monitor and I am glad I did it. this thing is so small and portable. the screen is wide, full hd. The screen is matt so light reflection is also not an issue.
it comes with mini hdmi to full hdmi, USB C to USDB C and charging cable. I connect this using provided USB C cable to connect with my PC’s thunderbolt port so I dont need to connect external power supply to this monitor. it comes with a flip cover which is magnetic and which also provides as a nice stand.
I have been using this for more than a week now and I have not seen any issues with this and my productivity has surely increased as I now can use 3 monitors. This is really useful for smaller desks and looks good at desk.
Brilliant for remote working
This is a portable Screen which is brilliant to use with a laptop as an extended screen – ideal to use if you’re remote working from home.
Having 2 screens makes it so much easy to work.
Simply plug it in via the hdmi connection and it’s good to go.
The screen can also be used with an android phone and also an extension with gaming platforms.
The screen is very high quality and comes with a protective case which also converts into a stand.
Very good purchase.
Great performance for the good price!
One of best products I ever had! It is very easy to connect with my laptop and mini pc.
Sometimes I need 2 screens for my work so I connect portable monitor with my laptop in just a few seconds. It’s perfect quality of display! I can use portable monitor with my mini pc and it becomes my laptop. This monitor is easily to move, it’s light weight, perfect RGB quality, easy to connect and I really enjoy to work with it. Superb!
Working from a coffee shop just got easier!
Very happy with this portable monitor. This monitor just made life easier with the easy plug and play concept. You get a two options for the connection – HDMI and USB C which you get on nearly all laptops.
The monitor has definitely increased my efficiency, I can go to any coffee shop and have two monitors!
I really like the free stand you get for stability.
Note, you will need a plug as it is not battery powered – it is only mains powe
Very impressive screen quality
I am currently using this product as a second monitor whilst working from home and the quality is very good. The screen is very simple to set up and can be powered from your laptop which cuts down cables.
The price is also very affordable given some alternative options. Would recommend!
Great screen - slight disappointment at firs
Only had the screen for a few days – so far so good – great bit of kit – perfect match for my laptop that has the same sized screen – I do a lot of work that is a lot easier with 2 screens and so away from the office this is perfect and it slips into my travel rucksack along side the lap top no problem.
4 stars cos it was a bit frustrating when I first got it as the HDMI cable supplied turned out to be faulty and so the screen didn’t get a signal from 3 laptops I tried. Had to buy a new cable and problem solved – UPDATE – Mentioned needing to buy a new cable to Aztine – they asked for a picture of the cable – I said I had already throne the cable away and sent a screen shot of the order placed on Amazon for a replacement – Aztine refunded the cost without me asking them too – can’t ask for better service really.
Very Good Product, and good customer service
Bought this in October and very pleased with the Monitor. Had occasion to contact Aztine customer services who contacted me back straight away and sorted everything out out. Would recommend this product and Aztine.
So good I bought another.
Perfect for home working in limited space. I bought one of these after looking around and readings lots of reviews, and I have not been disappointed. I haven’t used it for gaming so couldn’t comment on that, but for office applications and videos it works perfectly. It is compact and easily fits in the laptop bag, connection easy with the USB-c port. In fact I was so impressed I bought another, and is the mini hdmi port that one to the same laptop again all working perfectly. My only gripe is because of cable positioning I can’t put right next to each other.
Aztine monitor exceeded my expectations for the price. The ability to work with my different PC’s has increased my productivity. Product support has been excellent; support proactively reached out by email before my product arrived. The monitor provides extended mode with my Nintendo switch and Surface 5 Pro.
The USB-C (Thunderbolt) cable from the monitor plugs directly to my Book’s USB-C socket offering a single cable solution. The USB-C cable provided with the monitor is full function and any alternative USB-C must support Thunderbolt as noted by a thunderbolt symbol next to the monitor’s USB-C socket. A USB-C power delivery (PD) charging cable may not work.
I needed to use the HDMI cable from the monitor to my Surface 5 Pro and iPad Pro. The Surface Pro has only a mini-DisplayPort so an adapter (mini-DP to HDMI socket) is required. The iPad Pro’s USB-C port can connect directly with the USB-C cable from the monitor; but I was hesitant to use this configuration for a long period since it drains the iPad battery. So with the iPad Pro I used a USB-C hub with an open HDMI socket in the iPad and the HDMI cable from the monitor; the hub provides power via a DC USB-C input. Each time the HDMI cable is used on the monitor power needs to be supplied by the USB-C power input on the monitor. Though I can only use the iPad with the monitor in mirror mode, it does provide a wider screen for viewing videos.
The speaker on the monitor is ok, but is not of the audio quallity coming from the PC. I selected the audio from the PC when listening for a long period. The brightness and clarity of the display has been good for text and great for pictures and video.. The OSD seems finicky; it may be me turning the wheel while pushing to select.
The magic cover is adequate, but needed to be setup per the instructions with the front flap folded back toward the monitor to help keep the monitor from sliding down. The cover makes it easy to pack the monitor and move.
What I needed was a monitor that can be used on my different PC platforms and is portable. Aztine portable monitor provides me an good cost effective solution. The customer support has been excellent; they quickly addressed a hardware problem. They responded within a day given the time difference. They reached out before dellivery of the monitor giving me a contact should problem arises and comfort that they tend to satisfy.
A decent secondary monitor for daily tasks
I picked this up to help with working with a laptop and as a backup. It states “gaming” but it’s only a fixed 60hz so it will work of course, but you’re not going to get an excellent experience unless you don’t care about high refresh rates for smooth performance. It’s light, portable and if you have a device that can provide power and video via usb a very elegant one cable connection. Otherwise you can power it via usb power adapter and connect via HDMI. Overall it’s pretty good for adding screen space for a laptop or a large display for a phone that supports it.
Good looking screen with high build-quality
I’m happy with this purchase. The display quality is quite good. It’s nothing like the screen in my 16″ MacBook Pro, but it’s easily on par with mid-market computer monitors. The build quality is very good – it feels solid and well put together. The HDMI port is great for connecting it to my Raspberry Pi – which is why I purchased it.
Two nits. First, the screen came with a protective plastic cover stuck overtop. When I removed it, it left a gluey residue behind along the top of the bezel. Some adhesive remover cleaned it right up, but that shouldn’t be necessary. Second, the monitor has built-in speakers, but they are very quiet. Even at full volume, you won’t hear them if there is much ambient noise.
Overall though – highly recommended. I’m happy with this purchase.
l;dr:
+ Good clear image
+ Compatibility
+ Brightness
+ Form factor
+ Ease of conectivity
– Stand
– Menu system
– Included wall adapter
I got this as I’m going to be working from a relatives house for a few days over the Christmas period and as a software developer having 2 screens to use is must really so I plan to use this alongside my 16″ MacBook pro’s retina display.
I’ve only briefly tested it out today at home but so far I am quite impressed, the clarity of the display is very good and the brightness is perfect, would definitely be very usable in a well-lit room.
The size actually matches the MacBook’s 16″ display quite nicely and doesn’t look out of place next to it.
Works well with my Nintendo Switch (non-oled) via a dongle which is a bonus, and initial input lag tests are acceptable for a portable display (but don’t expect to win any e-sports matches).
I also tested it with my 2017 ASUS Rog Strix gaming laptop and again it works very well, being detected instantly and giving a good clear image.
Having both micro HDMI and USB-C for connectivity makes it very versatile, I could well see me using this as a HDMI monitor for my camera equipment.
The case makes it easy to prop-up the monitor in 2 common viewing angles but the magnets on my unit feel very weak and I suspect they will not last forever.
The OSD is a little cumbersome in that you have to long press for brightness controls otherwise you just get the volume adjustment, there is also no other controls besides brightness and volume.
I believe this type of OSD is common among these portable monitors though so I imagine it’s par for the course.
The included wall adapter is horrendous, please don’t use it and supply your own (or draw power from the device you’re connecting if applicable)
Overall very happy with my unit.
Good quality portable monito
I was very happy with my product. It looks sleek and good quality. The case it comes in is good and sturdy. Easy to set up. Plug and use. Very light and easy to carry about. I was very happy when I opened the box. Great as a second monitor while working from home. Picture seems good also. Would recommend.
Very Impressive
Great product, works perfectly straight out of the box. Really well made. Was looking at better known brands but reviews mentioned installing drivers to connect certain devices. None of that with this, just works with my phone and laptop straight away!
Excellent product, would recommend.
I needed this for work and it works perfectly. I plugged into my windows laptop and macbook with the supplied usbc cable and it worked with no issues. Fits in a standard laptop size bag and not too heavy. Would recommend.
Very portable. Plug and play.
This screen is very portable and is great to use with a laptop in this work from home era. I can power it with my laptop USB and then use the hdmi cable for the signal, so no additional power supply is needed.
Picture and sound quality are not the best I have seen, but this is what you would expect for the price.
Increased my work productivity significantly
I am a IT professional and I sometimes have to travel for my work. At home I have a big monitor however for travelling and staying at hotels it wqs really horrible earlier for me so thought about giving this monitor a try by checking nice reviews about it.
Now I can say this really is a must have for me. It is very lightweight and definitely a good quality screen. Comes with a nice leather style cover that looks nice.
This can be powered by a phone that is just unbelievable. I connect it with my Huawei work home and watch movie even without connecting it to any other power source that is the best thing.
It has really doubled up my work productivity so definitely worth it for me.
I would say give it a try and you would love it.
Exactly what I hoped fo
Purchased 2 x of these specifically so my partner and myself could travel a little and work from remote locations.
Each of us has a second “travel” monitor to extend our laptops.
These are exactly what I hoped for, they have USBC and if I use it on my older laptop I can use HDMI and an external power supply, so I’ve got all bases covered.
Screen quality is very nice for working, I haven’t tried gaming.
One of the BIG selling points for us is the weight of the screens – 0.7 lbs. Slips into the laptop bag and barely adds any extra stress to the carry experience.
Can’t wait to resume world business travel with these!
Really needed for multiple use desks
Amazing unit! Can’t believe I didn’t purchase this before.
I needed a portable monitor for my desk that I use for my TV and for work. This is the perfect solution. Comes with all the bits including a case.
Pros –
Clear display, full HD
Multiple connections – USB C and HDMI
All wires provided
USB C can power and transfer image
Cons –
No battery option. However as connected via usb C it’s not a problem.
I’d recommend anyone to buy this! Good product from Aztine
The build quality and picture quality on this Aztine portable monitor is absolutely brilliant and I am so glad I went for this one. I’m so impressed with it that I had to take a few photos so you can see what I mean. Please see the attached picture which shows how I am using this monitor by attaching it to my laptop to extend the screens, rather than mirror them, as it gives me that extra workspace when sitting in bed. I’ve tried displaying a logo screen which has some contrasting colours that I hope showcase the quality adequality in the photo.
I’ve been browsing the net on one screen and watching Netflix on the other and the picture really is top draw for a monitor this size. I thought I would have to attach external speakers as the monitor is so small that I thought the speakers may not have been any good. Well, I have absolutely no need for the external speakers as the dual built in speakers are more than capable of delivering an excellent sound.
It comes with a nice magnetic case that doubles as a stand, but I prefer to use the tiny little stand you can see in the attached photos. It is tiny and only meant for a phone, but as the monitor is so thin and light I have absolutely no problems sitting it on that. One of the best features is that if you have a laptop or device that has a full function USB Type C port then you only need to have the one cable connected and that will not only power your monitor but also pass the video and voice over it. My laptop doesn’t have a full function port so as you can see in the photos I had to use the supplied HDMI cable for the video and sound, and the USB C cable (also supplied) for the power.
This is well worth the money and it shows that you can get absolute brilliant picture and sound at this low price point and still have a top quality build using lightweight but durable materials. If any doubt then just give it a try is what I would say, as with Amazons comprehensive returns policy you are always safe guarded if for some strange reason you didn’t think it was as brilliant as I think it is.
Easy to use
The monitor was well packaged, nicely made and has a functional look. The display is easy to set up and is bright and vibrant.Very impressed with the performance of this monitor, for the money it performs very well. It is also very light, and I have been absolutely happy of owning it.
Perfekt als Zweitmonito
Gekauft habe ich mir diesen Monitor, damit ich zu Hause einen Zweitmonitor habe.
Da ich jedoch gerne auf dem Balkon sitze suchte ich einen tragbaren Monitor und bin mit diesem sehr zufrieden.
Die Qualitt ist top, keine Verzgerungen und die Verpackung ist ebenfalls einwandfrei und anspruchsvoll gestaltet worden.
Excellent portable monitor!
Excellent device, can be powered up with an power bank and hooked up to any HDMI device using the HDMI to mini HDMI cable. Very useful to increase productivity using it with a laptop. How have I managed without this all this time! 5 stars *****
Soo good
The quality of the display is more very good ,than what i expected. It is soo compact and its wort every penny.
Super Erweiterung für Reise
Nach allem, was ich bisher sehe, ist der Monitor genau das, was ich mir davon versprochen habe.
Er ist top mit Kabeln ausgestattet. (3 Kabel und ein Netzadapter)
Wenn man einen USB-C Ausgang mit Power und Daten frei hat, dann reicht sogar ein Kabel, um den Monitor zu nutzen – sonst braucht man 2.
Auch gut: Eine Schaummatte zum Schutz auf Reisen liegt bei.
Das Bild ist nicht total brillant, aber schon ziemlich gut. Man muss sehen, dass dieser Monitor einen guten Kompromiss darstellt: Die anderen in dieser Preisklasse haben entweder nicht diese Auflsung oder sie sind 2-3 cm dick und wiegen an die 2 kg – Inakzeptabel, wenn man das Gert auf (Flug-)Reisen mitnehmen will.
Dieses hat die hohe Auflsung und ist schmal und leicht – mit Falthlle 1170 g.
Ich bin sehr zufrieden.
Perfect additio
I borrowed one of these recently to replace the traditional big monitors which I couldn’t connect anymore. Was so impressed, had to get one for myself. Brilliant little addition to my WFH setup. Plug and play with the type c connection. It just works! Easy to use, clear, bright picture display. Can’t go wrong!
Light-weight and good screen quality
I’ve been using this as my second screen for work for 5 months now and find it really good. It’s slim, light-weight and the screen screen quality is excellent. It was quite easy to set up and conveniently comes with a variety of device connections. I haven’t used it for its speaker function but the audio seems quite clear and sharp
Screen quality is good
I use a laptop while working from home and love the portability that it provides. I am not fixed to a room or desk and wanted a portable monitor that occasionally when I need a second monitor then I can have it handy and not take up too much space. This display ticked all the boxes. It is a good size of 15.6″, the bezels are not too thick and it is also not too heavy to carry in a laptop bag. Connecting it to a Windows laptop is straight forward — plug and play. The screen quality is good for working on spreadsheets and also for playing some online games and watching media. The magnetic stand and screen cover is easy to use and protects the screen. I am very pleased with this screen and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a portable screen.
Fabulous Monitor - way better than expected
Very well packaged and presented – very Apple esq. Very nice IPS display with fab picture quality. Works right out of the box. I bought for my Motorola G100 which comes with Android ‘Ready For’. Out of the box I plugged it in to my phone and it just worked – powered up the monitor from the phone!!!!!! Brilliant! Just simply works!!!! If you power the monitor it also reverse charges the phone!!!!! Amazing. No mains? not a problem me battery pack does the same thing!!!!! The screen is beautiful and bright. The cover is perfect, toggle control works well. Came with really nice cables in the box and a mains charger. HDMI is great – but with full throughput ‘C’ I’ll only have to use that with my laptop. Speakers are OK – but that’s no bigy cause I use buds. On top of this 2 years warranty! Very impressed – keep up the good work Aztine.
Great for on the move
Fantastic portable monitor which makes my laptop into a dual screen. It’s perfect when I’m staying in a hotel or away from my normal set up. The monitor is lightweight, compact and easy to view from different angles. It comes with a portable case/ stand which is great. I didn’t realise the USB C port also power’s the monitor as well as transmitting the display so no need for a power cable anymore. I’ve used this constantly since purchase and I’m very happy with it.
Just to add, this is excellent for using with my PS4, makes it very portable and able to use in places I normally wouldn’t be able to. Picture quality is good and very playable as a temporary screen on the go.
Great Second Display
This works really well as a second monitor. It’ll run on my Mac with a single cable providing both data and power. The difference between the resolution is noticeable, but it’s fine. Note that the monitor doesn’t have a battery. Perfect for my needs, and the lack of battery means that the monitor is surprisingly light. In fact, the case almost doubles the weight!
It also works perfectly with my SNES Classic Mini and SEGA Mega Drive Mini. The sound quality is actually good, but the speaker isn’t very loud. However, there is a 3.5 mm audio jack for an external speaker/headphones
Beautifully designed, light as a feathe
I was very pleased that the screen came well packaged and arrived safely. On unboxing you see a very clean white exterior box which literally feels empty.
After removing the styrofoam you are blessed with this elegant piece of glass in a gorgeous velvety feeling magnetic cover.
The screen is huge. That’s what she said. No literally that is what my wife said. She was right. The size of the view area is bigger than most laptop screens. The slim design makes it easy to handle . The casing allows you to prop it up and position it to your liking.
One side has your POWER usb c slot the other side has a usb c as well. Very important that you don’t confuse them and get it right.
Comes with the hardware needed to connect hdmi to mini HDMI, usb c to USBC and the power cord. Super easy to set up. Just plug in and play.
For a 1080 display it is by far the best I have seen and/or used.
Overall I think for the price you are paying for a super super light weight portable video screen this is definitely a great if not greatest option. I tried it out with extending my laptop screen worked fine.
Then tried making it a external screen for my DSLR worked fine.
Lastly, used it to make wider and bigger my phone screen and worked easily.
If I had to say anything to help make this design better it would be to add the ability to cast your screen onto it. Even though being plugged in results in better data transfer, I would be ok with a second or two lag to be wireless.
Awesome product I would definitely recommend this to all tech friendly People. Follow me on here daily reviews and/or answering questions on the products reviewed
Great Compact Screen which fits in my laptop bag
I use dual screens for work and it was a hassle transporting screens around when working at different branches or staying in hotels. This compact screen fits in my laptop bag, is light weight and allows me to continue to work with dual screens anywhere I go.
I’ve only had this for a day, but so far it’s been fine. Picture quality is perfectly adequate. Not as good as the retina displays on my Macs, but then I wouldn’t expect that. I’m using it for business stuff so can’t really comment of things like colour accuracy or refresh rates, but I have no complaints.
It works with my 2019 Retina MacBook Air using the USB-C cable supplied in the box (you need a specific video-capable USB-C cable, which is what it comes with). It can be driven from the Mac’s internal battery, but I wouldn’t expect the battery to last too long. When the screen is plugged into the power supply, it charges the Mac, just as it should.
It also works with my 2015 27″ iMac. I had to buy a mini-displayport to HDMI adaptor, but they’re only a fiver or so.
I’d give this five stars if it wasn’t for some niggling design annoyances. It comes with a magnetic folding cover that doubles-up as a stand. It’s adequate as a cover, but a tad precarious as a stand. But it’s usable. Finally, the positioning of the ports, on either side, mean it’s impossible to use in portrait mode without using some kind of 3rd party stand solution, and I’m not sure how that would attach.
For the money, however, there is nothing to complain about. Nice product.
Perfect with my new PS5
I went away to a holiday home. There was no TV. But I really wanted to play my new PS5. I tried my luck with this portable monitor and it did not dissapoint.
Really clear IPS screen display. Full HD 1080p Powering is really easy with the USB which I plugged in my console. and the size is great same as my laptop which is great as I use this as my second laptop monitor as well!
Lovely display
I bought this to use with a recently purchased mini PC that I am using for out-of-work software development activities. The size of it means that it perfectly sits underneath my larger 28″ dual monitors which I use for work. The picture on it is great and the provided case serves well as a stand and protection when moving it about.
I use the HDMI connectivity direct from the mini PC but it also has USB-C connectivity which works perfectly from my developer spec laptop as a mean of power and data transmission (for the picture). It can also work for phone/tablet too but I am yet to put this to the test. The picture is nice and sharp and the colours are bright, and blacks are black. It is a lovely little portable monitor.
Light weight and good quality
I’ve been using it only for a week but so far I am very pleased with the screen. The first time connecting it the image was slightly blurry but I tried adjusting the settings and it got better immediately, very easy to adjust and adapt to your needs. I’m also impressed with the time of response, previously I was using a desktop monitor and it took some seconds to duplicate screen or move folders from my laptop screen to the monitor, but with this screen it’s done instantaneity.
Good, clear picture
I’m using this as a ‘confidence monitor’ attached to an ATEM Mini Pro for live-streaming church services. I have it laid flat on the table beside me so it is not as visually intrusive for people in the congregation as a more traditional upright screen would be. It enables me before the service to set the sound levels will reasonable accuracy and, at any point while I am conducting the service to check with a glance that what I want to be on screen on the livestream is, and that the next powerpoint slide is ready for when it is needed.
Additional screen for home office
I have moved to Samsung dex as my primary PC, this runs off my tablet, this screen can attach to my tablet to give a additional screen for multitasking. It is a screen only, but it’s good quailty, light and portable.
I purchased this screen as I will soon be returning to an office environment for a few days a week. Over lockdown I have been using 2 screens and so was looking fi a portable solution for work.
The screen is slightly wider than a laptop but very easy to fit in a rucksack. As you can see from the photos it is about as thick as a pen. Weight wise it is about the same as a laptop and feels solidly built. The monitor comes with a cover which also serves as a stand. The monitor is great as a second monitor for working and in this capacity you are not really using it to its full capacity.
The new use I found for it was even better the sun was out, we were having a few drinks with neighbours but a Euro match was on. This monitor provided a great solution with a few additions
1. Fire stick
2. Mini hdmi adapter
3. Power bank
These are all things I sure most of us already have. You can power both items from the power bank creating a truly portable solution for the garden or camping. You could carry all these items in a small bag and set everything up in a few minutes and be enjoying portable hd quality TV.
The picture quality is great I’ve watched bbc iplayer, netflix etc and it’s as good as my full size TV. The sound is good without being crazy loud but if you want to annoy the neighbours you can attach a portable speaker.
This is a great device for work or leisure.
Awsome, wish I had purchased one soone
I didnt realise you could get things like this. It was recommended by a friend.
The screen was packaged really well. It came with a variety of leads and a power supply. This is a great solution for me when I want to watch something in the garden or when were away in the caravan. Rather than being cooped up inside.
It has mini hdmi, USB C and 3.5mm connection. I purchased a mini HDMI to HDMI adapter and was able to run my firestick on it. The added bonus is I can power the firestick and screen from Power Banks too. So I can totally go off the main grid.
The picture is really good, as you would expect with an HDMI feed.
With the firestick having bluetooth, you are able to bluetooth another speaker to it if you need more volume. Alternatively you can use the 3.5mm speaker connection.
There is a folder cover type thing which you are able to keep the screen covered and clean. It then make part of the mount.
Very impressed with it, looking forward for the next opportunity to use i
Was good while it lasted
Was a really good addition to my current two screens. I wanted one screen dedicated to the CCTV for gate access and this did the job. The picture was as close to 4k as it gets but unfortunately my cameras are not. All was going well till I knocked it off my desk and broke the screen.
Can highly recommend this for sure
Brilliant for working on the go
The idea of working on the go ha always been daunting for me as I usually end up sat in a coffee shop, constantly working round a single screen as appeared to my home duel set up.
This was a game changer, lightweight sturdy and as easy as plug and play. Thanks to the travel case and slim profile I can just slip it into my laptop bag so no need for any extra luggage when I’m out and about working.
I am genuinely frustrated at myself for not updating my travel set up sooner as I could have got so much more done!
Brilliant for someone working on the go!
A quality bit of ki
My eyesight has been deteriorating over the years and my main grump is using my phone and struggling to read stuff and enjoy watching videos on you tube or Netflix and as I am into entomology I often miss the very small items on screen. My son popped into my office and found me about to throw my phone in anger and after talking he suggested buying a portable monitor like the one he uses alongside his laptop and it would let me see what was on my phone but at a much greater size equal to or bigger than some laptops. That was the day things changed and we popped onto amazon and started browsing. Eventually we decided on this monitor and it was duly ordered.
It arrived and even before opening I was impressed with the packaging and was excited to see what was inside. The monitor was extremely well packed and it came with all the cables I would require and a cracking case that also worked as a stand. It was so slim, modern and being made of aluminium it was so smooth and felt really well made, and that pleased me. I plugged it in using supplied cable n plug, set it up on the case/stand, and plugged my phone in using USB C cabled supplied. This was truly amazing, the colours and the clarity were brilliant and I was on cloud nine. I watched one of my videos and I could follow everything clearly now and was so looking forward to showing my son, and thanking him.
My grandson popped in holding his switch as always and asked if I could plug that in and I was sure we could as it had correct connections.and there we were for the next 20 minutes playing games. It is so easy to use, just plug and play and it even has twin speakers on the side, and with a headphone socket so as not to disturb people around you.
Making use of my portable heavy duty powerbanks, this will be truly portable and when on holiday or travelling it will go where my phone goes, wonderful.
For the money this was a fantastic buy.
I’m working from home and using a laptop, I did have an extra monitor but it was heavy, took up a lot of space and had multiple wires going to it. This was the perfect solution for me and I’m very pleased with it. Its lightweight, ultra portable and doesn’t take up a lot o space. It comes with all the wires you will need for connectivity and also has a nice protective case that doubles up as a stand. It’s plug and play so setup is simple, no need for software or installing files just plug it in. The screen has a good resolution and the image is really clear. It can be connected to the mains for power and to any device with a HDMI output. If your device supports USB-C you can connect it that way too, doing it this way is my preferred option as just the one wire provides the video an the power. The monitor is very responsive and has greatly improved my working setup. The settings can be changed using the buttons on the side and it also has a headphone socket for audio. Overall this is a fantastic piece of technology and I’m super happy with it.
Bright monitor with excellent colour.
This is a great monitor. The colours are bright, the backlighting is perfectly even. It has built in speakers that are a bit quiet, but perfectly satisfactory. The wheel on the side used to access the OSD works very well. It has a great selection of connection options and comes with all the cables needed, including a power adapter. It’s very light and seems well constructed.
The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is that the brightness resets to 50% every time the monitor goes to sleep. Still, it’s good value for money and I’m very pleased.
Research Paid Off - Great Portable Screen!
I have been looking for a large portal screen for a while now that was in price point. This 1080p 15″ monitor is perfect for my needs. Whilst working for home, and very little space, I needed something a lot smaller than a normal monitor.
Picture quality is as you’d expect for the spec with nice clean imagery. The USB C connections are great, and allow a number of connections.
The only, slight downside are the steaks are quite quiet. However, as this was actually a bonus, I haven’t marked it down from my point of view. The fact they’ve crammed speakers into this compact unit is great!
The unit is made from metal so is nice and sturdy. The magnetic fold out case is also a nice touch, giving you two angles to choose from.
I’d recommend this to anyone requiring a portable screen. Well worth it!
Very good and handy
I didn’t have room for a TV in my room so having this is so handy and easy and fits on my desk so well.
Impressive
Very good quality. I play my switch on it. Impressive!!
Portable monitor for small spaces
This monitor is very useful as a second screen when working from home. The screen is good quality and the monitor is lightweight, portable and slim. It is ideal for a desk where workspace is limited.
Happy :)
I use this for my xbox one s, the monitor is so good! Lightweight and easy to carry around. The good thing is that it doesn’t take up much space on my desk and once I’m done playing, I can easily store it away.
Excellent quality scree
I am using this as a second screen for work and it works perfectly and the picture quality is great. If you have a laptop or computer with USB-C port then you only need the one supplied cable to connect the two. If you are relying on an HDMI connection you will then also have to power your monitor separately using the supplied plug. I have not been able to use it with my Macbook Air (2015) as it only comes with a Thunderbolt 2 port and adapters are not easy to come by – I’m not even sure it’s possible whether it would carry power.
But this is less the fault of the Aztine monitor and if you have a newer model of Macbook it will work perfectly.
V good
Great for traveling with a console! Easy to pack and take on the go with the same quality as a monitor at home.
So pleased I ordered
Well packaged all the leads you will ever need. Very good build quality. Picture quality amazing. Easy to use. Vesitile. Better than expected by far.
Nice scree
Nice quality, sensitive touchscreen. Maybe a bit expensive vs. Other brands but came reccomended, so I am happy.
Great compact monitor for the price
I was looking for a gaming station to play my console games at work but having stumbled upon these monitors I decided to pick these up as they were half the price compared to those gaming station. I must say I am very impressed with this monitor, obviously does the job, the images are crisp for 1080p resolution as I do not need more resolution for my console. Volume could have been better but it is not a big deal. Overall very satisfied with the purchase and would definitely recommend if you are looking for a portable gaming screen or gaming station.
Sleek Compact - Perfect for Home Offices
Purchased this for the pandemic working from home as my partner used the office. This portable monitor is clear sharp and bright – yet don’t tire my eyes out. It comes with a sleek cover which acts as a great stand. When done, I can put it away neatly. It doesn’t drain my Mac as much as I thought. Well recommended.
I wish I knew this existed earlier, the device has made working from home so much easier and increased my productivity. The screen takes up minimal space, uses very little wires and it’s bigger than my laptop screen. Working is so much better with two monitors. I just link my laptop up via its USB C port, this powers the monitor and sends the video signal. It can also be used with a hdmi wire and a USB C to power it. All the wires and mains plug are included as well as a screen protection film. The monitors case connects to the monitor magnetically and can be folded to make a stand, when not in use it works as a protector for the monitor. It’s simple to use and works straight out of the box, no need to install software or add drivers. I’m really pleased with it, the picture quality is excellent and it also has a headphone jack for audio. Great product.
Very useful
Very useful gadget for my husband’s work, it is easy to set up and easy to use, working very smooth, it is also light so perfect to take it with him or it can also be taken for holiday to watch movies, playing games ec
As I move back to work after the covid lock down, I have got more used to a bigger screen via my home monitor. I travel around the country a lot using a laptop, but often stopping to work at local service stations, coffee shops and staying overnight at hotels. My 12 inch laptop screen didn’t seem to cut it before lockdown, so have always wanted a screen of sorts to get me through.
Now in July and with the summer holidays which is now going to be in the UK camping and not abroad we wanted something with a bigger screen for family movies and playing the family switch on (4 way Mario cart is the best with the family).
With these two thoughts I started looking and couldn’t believe my eyes when I found these portable monitors which can be powered by no more than a 5v USB socket. This meant we could camp in the field with no direct power source other than a charged Switch and Power bank to power this. Price wise it was more than I was looking to pay, but given I will use it for work I decided to buy it.
First impression were good. It’s light and thin. It very similar to an Ipad type device by design and feel and comes with a flip over cover to protect it, and also act as a stand, which to be fair looks nice but is a little tricky to get into place to hold it, but once you have the hang of it work great.
It comes with a mini HDMI to HDMI lead which is what I’ve used for it to connect to a) my home working docking station to use it as a spare screen as a test and b) to connect it to our switch.
It also comes with a usbc cable, which I’ve used to power it via a spare USB slot on my laptop and also by my powerbank (as shown in the photo’s)
I understand, but have not tried it, but you can also used the USBC for video as well, there are 2 usbc ports on it, which mean you can use one to power and one for video. A nice little addition I think.
In terms of performance, it was plug an play and powered on as soon as both video and power are connected. The colour is good and bright, a little washed when compared to by LG monitor, but that was 4 times the price and powered by mains.
There is a small wheel function switch on the bottom which which you can push to flick through some usual functions like brightness, contrast, input and a few others. all of it works as seamless as you expect from a high end monitor and it feels robust and well made.
It has speakers, which as you would expect are tinny with not too much base, but are perfectly adequate for movie watching or playing minecaft and I probably won’t use them for work.
I think when I put this all together, I’m very pleased with the purchase. I works great and will I’m sure be fantastic on our summer holiday, but more as a long term investment will be very handy for my working away from home. A great bit of ki
Worth it.
So practical and so convenient. The portable monitor only needs a USB C cable to charge and to extend the display. I’m currently only using this when I feel lethargic and want to change of scenery when I work – working with two screens in the garden or living room has never been this easy. Monitor cover acts as a perfect monitor stand as well, so I didn’t need to purchase anything extra which I appreciated. Can’t wait to travel so I can use this at airports and hotels!
Lightweight option to double screen with a Macbook Pro
With the working from home I was really missing the double screen setup. Came very nicely packaged with a C to C cable, it was literally just plug in and play, works as a charm. Great display quality and responsiveness. The plus is that is quite lightweight like a tablet and comes with its screen protector, so can just put in with my Macbook pro in the same case making it easy to transport.
I usually use a three monitor setup at my office, but picked this up for a second monitor to keep in my go bag to set up when working at a customer site. I wanted a screen that was light, sharp and clear, and easy to set up, and picked this up to try.
The screen is sharp and clear. 1080p on a 15″ screen is the same pixel density as my laptop. Works fine in either portrait or landscape, no autodetecting so you have to change it in the OS if you want to rotate it. Had a detection issue initially (defaulted to 640×480), but it has been at 1080p since. Good viewing angles, colors stay consistent even viewed quite off center, it claims to be IPS and looks the part.
14.5″ wide by 9″ tall and 1/2″ thick with the case on. Weight is about 2.5lbs also with the case – which you need, as it is the stand as well, but the case is just under 1lb of that. Compares very well to trying to carry a full size monitor. The case is a protective full wraparound, magnetically held in place front and back when on, it is pretty secure from falling off completely, but does not provide any bottom cushioning when vertical in portrait orientation in a bag, so keep that in mind. My laptop bag has some cushioning under the inner, should be fine there.
As a stand, the case does a good job as long as you set it up on a flat surface and have the case on the right way – one side is the inside and is softer, greyish, and grippier, and the other is more black and slick, and if you put it on backwards it looks like it is attached but doesn’t work well at all. Confused me for a bit the first time I took the case off and put it back on wrong. Otherwise it is a fairly standard magnetic tablet case / stand. It is ONLY attached by magnets though, so pretty easy to disconnect unintentionally if you are twisting it at all while moving it in the stand position.
Connectivity is primarily USB-C. It has two ports, one is power only, the other is signal or both signal and power. My Latitude E5570 can provide power over the Thunderbolt / USB-C connector using the same cable as the video signal. So just the USB-C to C connector in the bag and quick to connect / disconnect is perfect.
The micro HDMI cable and separate power supply and USB A-C cable for power will be useful a few times a year when traveling for fun and I want to bring this with the xbox – but that won’t be a primary use, and holding a controller while staying at the right distance for this to be functional would not be perfect.
It has a speaker. Volume and quality compare poorly to my laptop speakers, this is more of a checkbox feature. I have no plans to use them.
It also comes with a plastic screen protector ready to install. At this size it is nearly impossible to get one of those on without bubbles, and I tried but was unsuccessful in avoiding those. But I don’t see any real need for it anyway – the case protects it for travel, and this isn’t a touchscreen to carry around, no matter how tablet like it looks.
Overall, it is meeting my need for a travel monitor quite well. We’ll see how TSA treats it the next time I hit the air, and how it holds up over time, but this is very good and quite affordable for what I needed today. Only issue is I keep trying to treat it like a touch screen, which it is not, but I’ll get used to that in time.
Fantastic product.
I used this to make an XXXL Nintendo switch. It’s perfect, it has a USB type C ports on both sides, so you can connect one to a slim power bank and the other to your Nintendo switch which you Velcro to the back. I fixed controller rails to the side and it just works perfectly! Seems to last ages with a very slim 10,000 Mah battery power bank. Screen is bright with great viewing angles. Very nicely made, good built in speakers, came with a case and cables for other use too. Couldn’t be more pleased with it.
Quality product at a great price.
