I’m very happy with this monitor. I found it more than bright enough, and crisp, with suprsingly good colours. It was instantly recognised by my office Mac, so no hassle at all to set up.
I’m delighted by the additional desktop space, and as musician, writer and graphic designer, who often has to have a lot of applications and windows open, and finds a 27 inch iMac is just too damn small, this is going to be so useful.
I don’t use the speakers as I have professional monitors as part of my set up, but I tried them and if I was out and about and using the screen for Zoom or to watch a movie, they would be good enough, and of course there is a headphone socket – which I confess I haven’t tried yet.
The controls took a moment to work out, but they are pretty simple to use over all, and I haven’t had to change anything anyway, except turn the brightness down a bit, as I tend to keep my Mac’s screen quite dark to avoid glare, and this monitor was very bright in comparison when it arrived.
I’m tempted to buy another one, for the Mac in my recording studio control room.
Perfect for my needs, have been using for over a year.
The screen quality isn’t INCREDIBLE, but as a reasonably price second screen which I can fold and store away everyday it serves its purpose very well. Works well as a second screen to contain emails, messages, etc – with any video/creative on my laptop screen.
I’ve seen the odd review state the physical quality isn’t great, but I’ve had no issues with the screen or case/stand itself at all.
Would recommend.
I purchased this product specifically to have a secondary monitor to use at the library. As a mature PhD student in my 40s, my vision is not as sharp as that of my younger peers, and relying solely on the 13-inch screen of my laptop was hindering my work. Setting up the monitor was relatively straightforward, although I had to experiment with different outlets to find the right one for my laptop. Once I got it connected, the monitor worked flawlessly and significantly expanded my work view. It’s incredibly lightweight, making it convenient for me to carry it in my laptop bag to the library every day. I have no reservations about transporting this product, and I particularly appreciate the user-friendly interface upon startup. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase and would highly recommend this mid-tier portable monitor to both students and professionals alike.
I use this all the time for work as a second monitor next to my laptop. The screen is a similar size but also running at 1080p so it’s actually usable for spreadsheets, etc. The great advantage is that it only requires one usb c to usb c cable to provide both the power and the image. The image quality is great for PC stuff but can take a bit of fiddling if you want to hook up a firestick or games console to get a decent colour palette. Would be interested to see what their panels that are more suited to those applications are like. The speakers are adequate considering how thin the screen is, they won’t blow you away but they’re good enough for watching a few videos. I can run a firestick and this panel from a small battery pack so it could easily be used on the go if you’re camping or travelling. I’ve been using this for a while now and I’m very pleased with it. Definitely worth a look if it you use a laptop for work and don’t always have loads of desk space but need a second monitor for productivity.
Simply put this is a great travel screen. It comes with pretty much everything you need to connect to whatever you need. It doesn’t have an internal battery so it has to be powered by plug or via type C connectivity but to be honest you wouldn’t really expect it to have an internal battery. build quality is really good and when you unbox it you can tell the quality is good from the moment you open the packaging. Screen is bright with good definition, I lent it to someone to use and they said it was better than their laptop screen and I think that it was. Really really good.
The screen is excellent quality – feels substantial and is a great size.
The stand is magnetic and has never given me any problems.
The screen can be used horizontally or vertically (it doesn’t change orientation automatically but it’s really easy to do in settings on your laptop/computer)
It has all the cables included that you will need. If you’re USB C connection doesn’t have the lightning image next to it (mine doesn’t which was the only disappointment) you will have to use USB and HDMI to connect and power. I plug both in to my laptop but if I needed the USB I could plug the screen into a power supply.
The resolution of the screen copes really well with text documents and video. It’s not quite as bright as my laptop and the colour is slightly different but that doesn’t detract from it at all. I use it in my summer house study and I have no problems seeing the screen.
I love it. It’s worth the money and it really is plug and play!
Not many things are compatible with my tablet. This one is. The monitor also has sound, although the quality isn’t as good on the tablet. Only two downsides. I haven’t figured out how to use it as a third screen and it would have been better if there were an inbuilt stand or a foldable stand with adjustable height that came with it. Other than that I would recommend it!
Decent build. Quality of the screen could be better but it’s good. Not excellent but just good. I bought it to be paired with Galaxy Note10plus and Galaxy S23Ultra. With both smartphones it works perfectly.
Now it’s connected through mini HDMI to docking station & phone – no issues at all.
The manual states that for laptops it can be connected in a few ways such as:
1) Using a Type-C to Type-C
2) Using the HMDI to mini HDMI + USB-A to Type-C (the only way I found I could successfully connect my laptop)
About a month ago I have accidentally damaged the HMDI port on the monitor and could no longer use it as it would not connect any other way without the HDMI cable. It was past amazon’s return policy so I have contacted the company and explained the situation to try and see if the can fix it for me.
Within a week I got a reply and they have kindly agreed for a replacement to be sent out to me as soon as I returned the damaged monitor. The whole process took overall less than 2 weeks for me to get my new monitor and I was able to use it again. Very pleased with the product and the customer service from the company.
What an awesome little monitor. The colours are bright and snappy and it’s very easy on the eyes. It’s a 12-bit panel and IPS glow isn’t a problem with my unit. I haven’t felt the need to calibrate it as it appears fine straight out of the box.
I bought this as the built in display in my dell gaming laptop is really not very good despite spending hours trying to calibrate it and oh boy does it deliver? Beautiful sharp image in a really well built package. I think mine got a little mixed up during production as it performs the same as a G1 Game, allowing 144hz despite it being labelled an A1 Gamut and coming packaged as such.
One feature I would like to see is the ability to mount it to a vesa stand or perhaps have the ability to buy a mount that would allow that which has also been manufactured by Arzopa. I bought a separate iPad holder and this does pretty well.
The menu controls can be a little fiddly but I suppose this is to be expected for such a slim panel.
Overall I can’t see a reason not to recommend this.
Overall the device is fantastic. What let’s it down is the hinge that is used as a stand. I think a fair bit more thought should’ve gone into that.
Lightweight monitor and works just as described, great audio and visual. So far tested it with the Switch and so far works perfectly. Thanks!
Really clear screen and easy use! Very practical for my job as always setting my desk up in different offices.
The minitor comes in a strudy box and is presented very well. It is simple to use, simply plug and play (for laptop using USB C or HDMI – both included in box). Screen is good quality and the in built speakers are reasonably good. The cover/stand works well as a cover but pretty awkward as a stand
The monitor did not work with my Samsung phone I contacted the Arzopa customer service and they responded immediately to try and assist. It would seem that certain phones may not work. Another phone in the house (hwawei) works perfectly but our One Plus & Samsung do not work. Customer service suggested an alternative solution for phones that dont work.
All in all a good product and great customer service
I love this monitor, I work from many locations and this is ideal lightweight companion to my laptop.
I don’t have to charge or power separately if I don’t want extra cable/plug, which is great.
Screen/resolution quality is brilliant.
I encountered an issue with the screen, which doesnt seem to be commonly reported, so just unlucky I guess. But customer care communication is spot on and they quickly addressed it, replacing the monitor and the new one is going strong.
I received the monitor today but upon opening it it is clear that the monitor has already been used, it is extremely dirty all over and has scratches on the screen. I have attached pictures.
Update: seller responded quickly and was quick to ship me a replacement, overall great customer service
This was bought for my 82 yr old mother who is learning to play the piano via an iPad tuition app. She was finding the standard screen too small to show sheet music and the tutorials together. This screen solves that problem entirely.
She was a little confused by the required connections but after contacting ARZOPA we received clear instructions with a photograph (worth a 1000 words). With the required adapter she was up and running in a few minutes.
Great screen, nice cover/stand, and helpful and attentive customer service. Strong recommendation.
This is a superb option for apartment home working, can move from room to room looks smart & has a small footprint.
Plugs & plays on my windows 10 Dell Laptop & power is non draining.
Quality is superb & price was fair.
I would definitely recommend!
I use this for my work as a second display and at home for organising my media/files
On my laptop also watching movies on from my tablet
Good build quality and decent image quality quite crisp
My only draw back is cable magment I use angle connectors
This monitor works well with a steam deck. It. Well. Design ed. Is very portable. I’ve had no problems with i
Easy to use, light and portable. After a few adjustments the display is good. Only little down point is the sound that is not really good.
For text and graphic displays this screen is very very competent at it’s job. It works exceptionally well with my Acer Chromebook. Plug in and play; set-up via Settings > Device > Display. Done within seconds.
I’ve found the HDMI connection to be the most reliable. The 60Hz display is more than sufficient for my use. Streamed videos render clearly.
The screen cover-cum-stand is stable and adjusts well to my desired angle.
The screen requires power at all times.
Unless you’re a gamer and specifically requiring a higher screen refresh rate, I recommend this device.
Really good resolution, easy to use, light. Only downsides are that it can sometimes bedifficult to keep upright and the cable can be a bit temperamental. Otherwise it’s been a godsend when traveling to different offices and sites
The screen is brilliant, really lightweight and a newfound student essential for me. Though I would suggest purchasing a portable monitor stand as well, so you don’t have to spend as long adjusting for the perfect viewing angle. Still, the “Smart Case” that this comes with is more than good enough.
A side note:
If you’re a Samsung user considering buying this as a portable movie screen I can’t tell you enough how well it works with my S22 and the DeX software that it comes with.
With my work I meet dealerships and train them up on new systems and this is perfect to be able to duplicate the screen and to have a largeish group looking at my laptop screen and also the second screen. Very crisp and clear screen and very quick and easy to set up!
Purchased this in September 2022 to add a 3rd monitor for my uni course, and it’s done really well as far.
Bought to use to replace a screen on a very expensive laptop at it was going to cost over 800 to replace so got this in the meantime. Excellent picture .. used for editing. Lightweight and works dircectly from the computer without having to plug it in the mains.
I had originally given this unit a bad review, only because i was sent out a defective unit and was to stubborn to send it back.
Well Arzopa reached out to me and I explained the situation and they were happy to send me out a brand new unit.
This one works well and i am happy with the product.
The only bad thing i can say about these screens in general(from all brands) is that it is not clear to the user that your device has to have some special type in order to use it as a usb-c screen. Which was not clear to me.
This is a brilliant portable 2nd screen, it’s lightweight, easy to use and was very well priced compared to some of the competition. Delivery was fast next day. Does exactly what I need it to.
Can’t seem to get it to be any louder than a mouse.
This is a great screen if you are always working in different locations but still need a 2nd screen. Picture quality isn’t too bad and it is very easy to set up. My only complaint is that the cover/stand doesn’t work great and personally I find the screen sometimes falls over if I’m working on a shiny desk or surface. Would be great if it had a separate stand mounted on the back instead of having to use the cover.
Really great additional screen at an affordable price. The picture quality is good and monitor has its own speaker. The plug in was seamless with the c type input in our newer laptops however required its own power source and HDMI cable (all included) for our older laptops. It does need it own stand/ support as the case is not sufficient to support it. Overall very happy with the purchase, would recommend.
OK so first of all, for the money, this is a great quality monitor with good picture and for its size and weight, it works well.
The screen does have a slight high pitch whine when in operation which you can’t hear if you have music on or similar but if the room is silent it’s a bit annoying. Minor but worth mentioning.
Apart from that one issue… Its a great monitor.
Really impressed with the quality of this screen it worked first time on my MacBook and now works as my second screen when I work out of office!!
Great connectivity, through power (PD) and HDMI connections.
Lots of cables in the box – couldn’t ask for more.
Opened and was concerned about what appeared as a dent in the screen but realised it was in the plastic screen protection film.
The screen protection flap / stand is the only weak link. Great for transport but requires some fines to set up in using mode – the magnetic attachments are not quite strong enough so the flappy bit can slip if the screen is knocked. Trying to work out how to prvoide some more friction to stop the slide. Once balanced it is great!
The on and off button is malfunctioning and have to wiggle the button to keep the screen on. Once it is on, works well
This is a good solid extra screen for your computer. I has many features and connectivity possibilities. You can flip it verticle or horizontal. You can actually game on it as long as your not expecting it to perform like a +500 screen it very good.
The screen quality is good and the no issues with the display however the screen cover/stand is really hard to banace the screen on and subject to falling down. However the after-sales team where very helpful and I would recomend getting the stand with this product.
Great screen for the price, easily connects to my Galaxy S20 – basically just plug & play, whatever is displayed on your phone is reproduced on this screen in good quality. The only disappointment is that Sky GO will not work with this screen.
To resolve
set the HDR MODE = OFF , under “MISC” the Brightness settings can now be accessed.
Perfect monitor for travelling. Not too heavy and very portable. Would highly recommend.
Overall I am happy with this monitor, light and easy to use.
However, on the description and compatibility. It stated that was compatible with Sony Xperia XZ3 phone, this is not the case. I have tried using the USB C to USB C cable provided, even bought separate HDMI to USB C cable, and neither work. Monitor shows as follow: NO SIGNAL and Go to power saving.
The portable monitor works great with my work/personal laptop via mini HDMI to HDMI.
Please advise, so that I can use with my android phone – Sony Xperia XZ3, thank you.
I must admit, after reading some of the reviews, I was slightly nervous, but I was pleasantly surprised and mostly happy at what I got.
Pros: –
* connected to my MacBook Pro (2017) via JUST the USB-C to USB-C Lead that came with the monitor, to the display and it worked perfectly. No other cables connected to either the Mac or the display.
* I was initially concerned about brightness and screen bleed, two other negatives I’d read in the reviews, but I could happily work & see the screen clearly easily, without making any concessions at around 75% brightness. I also experienced no light bleeding around the edges.
* the screen quality for movies was crisp & sharp and when playing fast moving games on it, I could see no discernible screen blur.
* the sound was clear and at full volume, with the screen on my desk and me sitting in front of it, could hear it quite easily. However, I would suggest plugging in an external speaker (via its small headphone jack), if you wanted to have more people viewing it and sitting further back.
* the quality of the manufacture feels pretty good.
Cons –
* The stand, (that doubles as a screen cover), is a bit flimsy. Don’t get me wrong, it will support the monitor’s weight, but I’d be a bit nervous if I was moving the screen around a lot that it didn’t collapse, as there’s no locking mechanism to hold the stand in one place.
* you can set the monitor to a portrait aspect and that works fine. However, because the cables connect via the left hand side, you HAVE to place the screen so it’s resting on its right-hand edge. Trouble is, there are a couple of tiny buttons/switches used for the On Screen Display on this side, which means you feel like either the screen will topple over or you’ll damage the buttons (or both). I’ve no real reason to display in portrait so it’s not a problem, but a heads up if you think you will.
* some reviews mention about a letter or card in the box, offering a free accessory if the buyer left a good review on Amazon. I received no such thing in my packaging.
All in all, I’m very pleased with my purchases and would recommend it!
I purchased this as I am always on the go and I cannot work as efficiently without two monitors.
So when I’m not in the office I take my laptop and this screen. So, if I’m in a coffee shop i pug it in and work.
Benefits:
– Screen Quality
– Colour
– Easy to use
Cons:
– Brightness (could be better)
– Volume (it doesn’t go very loud)
– Hz (if you’re using this screen to game, the Hz/frame rates are dreadful I wouldnt bother)
I’m using this as intended, as a portable second monitor for work. It’s not being used for gaming or anything especially intensive but suits me perfectly.
It’s light and easy to carry in a backpack. Easy to use too. Had a slight issue using the wrong wire such clearly didn’t allow enough power to the monitor but once solved, all was well. Picture is good. As I say, I’m not using it for gaming etc. so can’t comment on performance (frame rate etc.).
The stand works fine. Know some would perhaps want it to be sturdier but that would possibly make it heavier.
Overall it’s fine for what I need it fo
Only thing to fault are:
– It struggles to pass charge through to a laptop, meaning of you only have a USB C laptop for your charger, you need to use the HDMI cable to connect the two + its own power supply, and then have the laptop charger plugged in for long term use. For short term of course, you can just connect via USB C to the laptop, but your power will fairly quickly drain (for me within 1-2 hours).
– The settings require resetting each time you power off and on the device
Otherwise this is an amazing product and would recommend anyone who likes moving about or expanding their workspace/entertainment space to give this a try!
The screen is a bit dull but as a second screen it works well m, especially for the price
Good little accessory for my laptop. Although the stand could be better but I’ve managed.
Works well and actually miss it when I don’t take it with me, good for impromptu presentations or training when you don’t want everyone crowding round one screen, works well for day to day use whilst travelling
Now we don’t need to crowd around a laptop for zoom/teams calls with friends & family in Europe
good price, good quality and perfect for commuting and Uni work
Bought this to replace a monitor I had, did no5 want to spend to much so wen5 through reviews etc. This came up and I wen5 for it, I don’t regret it so far it’s been great I’m even thinking of getting another. Brilliant price and great for what I needed it for.
Looks like a big tablet, easy to bring in my backpack to my work trips.

I liked it so much I bought a second one so I could have 3 screens at the same time. I have two USBC ports on my laptop, using these on the train or when working away have been fantastic. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

Far better than laptop screen. Yes the cables supplied are a bit on the short side but at least you can use straight out the box. Lovely packaging too. Bought longer cables. Very pleased with it.

The support to keep the monitor in the correxr position is challenged plus the position of the HDMI port, as a right handed, should be on the right side of the monitor. Apart from that too.early to give a proper review.

It works very well.
It is very slim and portable and you don’t need external power supply if your laptop has an USB C capable of provide power.
You can extend your desktop or configure it as second monitor.

Needed to add a second screen to laptop setup in a hurry, this was on offer but reasonable rating, and I’m not disappointed at all. Congress with HDMI and USB c linking cables and mains power supply.
Don’t panic when you see the size of the box, that’s for all the cables nicely packed, the unit itself is dinky.
Having to work from home I really needed a second monitor but didn’t want anything bulky. I came across the Arzopa portable monitor and didn’t know what to expect due to the mixed reviews. I’m so glad I got it, it was long overdue. This portable monitor is perfect for me! I just plug it in to my macbook with one wire and it works. When not in use I like that I can just pack it up and put it away. The display is really good too and the screen size is perfect for me. I’ve also tried to connect the Nintendo Switch and it works really well and the graphics are not bad at all. Overall great product and I’m happy with it.
The product so far seems good and its great how it is packaged with all the cables, well organised. However I have seen this with some Chinese products the material has a strange smell. Fishy smell the cover, the cables, when I open the packaging not sure why Chinese products have this odd smell. I can imagine it will be a sickening smell to some people.

I ordered this portable monitor thinking it was not going to live up to my expectations. It arrived well packed and with all the necessary cables and leads and when switched and connected to my laptop, the picture me absolutely wonderful. I can’t fault this monitor at all. It’s brilliant!
I did have a problem with the screen randomly cutting out but we found this was caused by not enough power so I stopped using my usb ports on my plug socket and started using another one and the monitor works great!
Basically my desk lighting was drawing more power than usual causing the scree to cut out and flicker..
The display could be a little brighter but is good quality. The stand works well and it is possible to run it with just a single USB C cable if your laptop has a suitable port – otherwise the bundled HDMI cable does a good job and you will need to use the bundled power supply for it. Would happily buy it agai
Took ages to come and connectivity was not straight forward as I thought but one e-mail to customer support resolved the issue promptly.
Generally it is fit for purpose and I like it, an I will recommend it to a friend.
This 15.6″ screen connected to the MacBook with a supplied USB-C cable, and that provided enough power to run it. (The supplied external power supply wasn’t needed for that setup). It was instantly detected, and with a couple of side-button presses it auto-adjusted to match my preferred screen display settings. It’s sat next to me on the sofa as I write this, propped up on its smart-cover magnetic stand.
When I do go to my desk, it works well in my 3 x screen setup – with the MacBook, an external 24″ monitor, and this little portable screen, the desktop extends across all 3 screens, and the MacBook still has enough USB power (even with a Graphics Tablet and a wireless charging pad on USB).
It’s bright enough to work fine in sunlight, and at night you can dim it or change it’s colour temperature to something more soothing.
Overall, this is a fantastic little screen, highly recommended!
Updated May 2022 – turn out this is also a fantastic little screen to use with the Steam Deck.
I’ve also been using it with Windows 11 recently to have a video play on this screen while it work on another.
Just brilliant, this is my favourite computing/gaming accessory in the past couple of years!

Great for travel, but needs to be always plugged in order to work. The only reason i added 4 stars is because the charging cable is ridiculously short. You constantly need to carry an extension cable which is annoying. But all the rest is fine. I suppose, i can buy another USB-C cable to solve this issue.
While the protective magnetic cover is great for protection when you’re lugging it around, it makes for a pretty average stand. Rather like ipad smart cover I guess or the one you get with the Amazon Fire. It is fine for on an office desk. But I have bought an additional table holder so I can have it above my laptop.
If you want the best possible experience, then you need to switch on DCR in the menu and you get a wonderfully clear and bright screen with USB-C. I have not tried the HDMI connection alternative.
Someone commented (I think the person who left the poor review), that the connectors should be at the back. Of course, if you did that, then you would end up with a MUCH thicker device to carry around. While the cable does take up some space sticking out, I just use a right-angle USB-C 2 USB-C cable so you save a couple a little bit of space. If you have the monitor on a stand, then it makes no difference anyway.
Just as a extra bonus (maybe it’s mentioned). But there is also speaker built it which I found pretty cool.
Well done to Arzopa. this is a really nice budget monitor. The photo shows it on a really nice stand / tablet holder I purchased from Amazon. It was a little more expensive (30.00) but well worth it and recommended this is the one https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08L4W9C9N/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It was a little more expensive (30.00) but well worth it and recommended this is the one https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08L4W9C9N/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The size and resolution is more than adequate for my needs, i use it for my aida 64 sensor panel along with my water temps in my pc. The display itself is sharp and clear and colours are great you might need to fiddle with the settings a bit but mine looked good out the box! Obviously has plenty of other uses i have tried youtube etc on it and it’s very good i also plan on trying the switch to see how that is on it.
Usb-c didn’t work i have no clue why as my pc has thunderbolt but i couldn’t get it to work however the usb a to usb c cable along with the hdmi to hdmi mini cable work just fine so not really an issue for me as it won’t move from where it is. I would have gotten another proper monitor but i don’t have the space so this was a great option.
Response times seem fine the only issue i have with my unit is a very small dead pixel thankfully barely noticable unless you go looking for it, this is just something you deal with when it comes to lcd screens.
The size,build quality, picture quality etc is all great for the price i got it for! I got it a bit cheaper during a lightning deal.
Brightness isn’t crazy high but more than adequete and not something to be put off by it’s a nice clear 1080p 60hz screen that worked right away and looks great beside my pc.
Last thing is it’s not heavy i can’t speak much for the stand certainly not amazing but works if you need it however mine is just resting against my pc.
Regardless of reason for wanting one of these it’s worth the price and hopefully will stand the test of time.
Highly recommend

Due to it being usb powered, it really is super portable and so easy to use. Most importantly – the way that the stand is made means I can fit it over my macs open screen with ease and just bypass to this one. The quality is great and the build quality is solid. Literally just a usb-c connection to the Mac and it automatically turns on. Superb.
Although I couldn’t get it to work with my PC via USB C, (Error 43 in Device Manager) it does work flawlessly with the included Mini HDMI cable, I have ordered a 5m variant so am hoping it still works.
I tested with Forza Horizon 5 and the HDR function does work well and looks great even at 1080 (I usually use 4k) so am impressed with the picture quality. Mine does suffer from some light bleed at the bottom left of the screen, which isn’t a deal breaker, but for me is a bit of a disappointment as my games are fairly dark. If I press on the bottom edge of the casing, it goes away but as soon as I lift my finger it’s back. Obviously this is going to vary from monitor to monitor and for an IPS HDR screen, even expensive ones can have light bleed.
Overall, I am happy with the purchase and impressed with the picture quality even at 1080 and still feel I had value for money!
I got it primarily for my raspberry pi 4 and it works very well with it! With the pi being powered by a mains plug all the monitor needs is the usb for power and the hdmi for video and sound both from the pi and it works like a charm! As I have been making a battery powered portable setup I needed to use one battery bank for the monitor and one for the pi, but this works! And it’s blooming awesome! Lol
Picture quality is spot on for 1080 resolution brightness is fine too and adjustable from the monitors osd
Now for the niggles..
When connecting the monitor to a docked switch console, it works fine at first but if you let or put the switch to sleep it will loose the video connection and won’t fire back up when you wake the switch, but if you connect the switch directly to the monitor ( no dock ) it displays fine, so a silly little quirk there
And so far the only fix is to use my pi to display to the hdmi then go back to the switch when docked. Not a fault on the monitors part as I suspect it’s something to do with the switches docks firmware when passing the video signal throught the dock to an outside display.
There is a little touch of ghosting when playing games but it’s rather slight and dosent take away from the experience.
When it comes to using this monitor with my pi the monitor is simply awesome!
Great crisp picture, full 1080, and only needs 2 cables to function, had a great picture for watching movies , surfing the web etc
All in all a rather surprising wee monitor and considering speakers are built in it’s even handier! Ok sure the speakers ain’t too loud and don’t have a lot of body of bass to them but they do the job none the less!
Very chuffed with this monitor as it rounds of my portable battery powered setup very nicely indeed

I was quite suprised at the quality. Some extreme angles are a bit washed out but i dont think it fair to say this is somehow a let down. I can see the screen at angles i have seen my expensive computer monitor toally fail at. Same with laptop.
Quite honestly im very happy with what i got here. Its bright enough, fairly loud sound, hdr works quite well etc. I dont think youre going to be blown away but nor will you feel let down
A solid item. One i would recommend whole-heartedly especially at the price i obtained it for on amazon.
Only gripe might be the folder/stand but again i dont think it would ve fair to expect any more than they provide.
I use the magnetic cover that doubles as a “lean to” stand. It does the job, hasnt slipped, hasnt moved on its own. Angle is a littlw hard to set just right but i have not needed to immediately seek some other resolution. It does work and im currently using it.
For me i feel i made the right choice. A bargain.

A really handy screen that is so light, easy to carry and doesn’t take up much space. It is so helpful in the library in uni. One thing is sometimes the screen doesn’t double display by the usb c cable and the hdmi cable has to be used. I find the usb c cable handier when it does because it will charge it and work as a display. Still a great monitor though.
This is a good quality very lightweight monitor. I bought this as planning to work remotely in other countries with new workplace flexibility.
The only annoying things in my opinion 1) the cable connections are on the left side. My laptop (Dell) is also on the left side.. so cords get messy wrapping around the monitor. 2) the power plug cable is very short.. need to basically be directly next to an outlet or buy an extended one
It doesn’t have a built in battery but I can run it off a normal USB battery bank very easily so I don’t need to plug it into mains for quick checks on machines. I also have an AOC portable touch screen which is more than double the price of this one and in some respects this one is better.
If I have one criticism, it’s that the fabric covering the screen cover/stand isn’t that robust and a few days into ownership I noticed a small rip on the cover but that really is a very minor criticism. For the price and my use cases, this is an absolutely awesome screen that I full recommend.
I use it both as a second monitor for my laptop and the screen for my mini PC. The picture quality is very good and b rightness control is adequate. The speakers are small and tinny, but what does anyone expect out of tiny speakers. The 2 C type plugs are ok, the mini hdmi feels flimsy and the plug is hard to push in, thinking it may break. I see that as the weak link in the future.
Power – I have used a 5V USB wall plug, USB-C Display Port from a Dell Docking station, USB-C from a battery powered laptop and a Anker Power Bank as the power supply. All work equally well into the USB-C sockets on the monitor.
Inputs – USB-C and HDMI work well for both the Dock with a USB-C DP port and also a desktop with HDMI output.
Brightness – Plenty bright enough, in my well illumicated home office i run the brightness around the “30” mark, at “0” it is fairly Dim and at “100”, well fairly bright but I have yet to test it in sunlight but i expect it to be about as good as most laptop monitors.
On Screen Menu – this is again straightforward to change settings. I haven’t used the HDR mode – for office work this is not needed. its easy to change between inputs on the fly. The Brightness setting is saved between power cycles. I shut the mains off to my office overnight to save on standby power and I haven’t had to reduce the brightness of the display again yet.
Controls – the push button is a bit finicky to get it to click “in” but up and down are easy to use. it could be my lack of finger nails or my fat fingers….
Bezels – This was important to me and this seemed to have the narrowest bezels from the various vendors on amazon. the top and sides are 5mm and the bottom is about 20mm.
Case – its a flip case held on by magnets. the magnets could be stronger but it works well enough on my desk to keep the monitor facing me. It might be a problem when using in a meeting and passing between people to view but hopefully not too much.
Clarity – this is a funny one, it is replacing a FHD 1080P 14″ laptop display and it doesn’t look quite as sharp as the laptop monitor but equally it is bigger and this has helped with general viewing and readability for the given resolution. this could be due to the anti reflective coating being different between the two devices.

1. HDMI port for communicating with PC and other non-USB devices – yes, I know PC is not very portable, but I need to use the screen with different PCs in various locations, so it was important to me
2. Full HD resolution – it should be a standard now but in this price bracket not all portable monitors are
3. Build in speakers – maybe not cinema-like, but better than smartphone ones so ok for mobile use
4. Thin, low-weight design, easy to carry
5. Nice build quality and magnetic protective case that can be used as stand. On top of that, very nice feeling while opening the box, all well packed and organized, great impression.
6. Low power consumption – you can easily power it up from a power bank on the go
What’s missing in the product? I’d say nothing, especially for the price. Maybe the VESA mount, but it’s not necessarily going with portability, or touchscreen that may be useful for some. Overall purchase was great and I’d definitely buy it again.
It’s powered by USB-C (I have a USB port in my main monitor which then plugs directly into this monitor and powers it just fine) and uses a HDMI to Mini HDMI cable for visuals. The picture quality itself is great but you should keep the hdmi in cable somewhere were it won’t get knocked – I’ve found that even the slightest knock creates static on the screen which you then have to re-adjust the cable to fix (nothing too major, though).
WORD OF WARNING IF THIS IS INTENDED TO BE A SECOND MONITOR: Make sure to double check that your motherboard supports iGPU in your BIOS Chipset options. If it does not, please order yourself a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter as you will almost certainly need it if you wish to extend the monitor (and not just duplicate the main monitor screen to this one) – I made the mistake of not checking this and had to order myself a DisplayPort adapter later.
To my surprise when I plugged my phone into the monitor using the supplied USBC cable, it actually powered the monitor as well which was quite welcomed. This means I can use it away from a power supply as it draws power from the phone (not that I’d do this too often but at least I have the option). When you plug the monitor into the mains, it actually charges the phone as well which is great.
The monitor is very slim and has 2 USBC connections ( I think one is only for power but I could be wrong). The display seems very bright, crisp and clear in my opinion and the sound is good to. This monitor ticked all the boxes and has enough options for my use case.
Connecting it to my PC also gave good results as well although I did need to use the supplied power connection which I guess is to be expected. Overall and at the moment I am very happy with this purchase.
