Remote drains batteries over nite picture is clear but I've spent more time sitting i front of it touch screening than using remote
Constantin Lazarev
I've been using this 32" portable smart TV tablet and so far I'm really impressed with it. The screen is a good size and the picture looks sharp and clear. The touch screen is also responsive, which makes it feel more like a large tablet than a regular TV.
One of my favorite things is the rolling stand. It's very easy to move from one room to another , and I like not having to worry about mounting a TV on the wall. Of the built-in battery is another big plus because I can use it without having a power cord running across the room. The battery has been good for normal use and makes the TV much more convenient.
Android 15 is easy to navigate, and having access to apps and Google features is really useful. Wireless casting works well when I want to put something for my phone on a larger screen. Having a camera is also a nice feature for video calls or Zoom meetings.
The stand feels sturdy and the screen can be rotated, which gives you more flexibility depending on where you're sitting. It can be practically used anywhere like your living room , bedroom, kitchen, office , or even when entertaining guests.
Overall, this is a really useful device if you want something bigger than a tablet but more flexible than a traditional TV. I like being able to roll it whenever I need it and use it without being tied to an outlet. So far, I'm very happy with it.

Absolutely love this thing. My wife uses it everyday. It is very heavy on top, but rolls smoothly on all surfaces. We use this for recipes while cooking, tv while cooking/eating, we can roll it out to the hot tub or bath ect. She does her shopping and scrolling on it with the remote, I hooked up and used a bluetooth keyboard and mouse. The remote was too finicky for my liking. Being able to adjust the height of it is nice for the differnt counter/table heights we have. My biggest complaint is that you cannot download Hulu or Netflix on it.

I was looking for something smaller than a full-size TV but still big enough to enjoy movies and shows comfortably, and the 27-inch screen ended up being a good size for me.
I mainly keep it in the bedroom, but I’ve also moved it into the living room a few times. It doesn’t feel like I need to completely rearrange the room just to use it somewhere else. That flexibility is probably what I like most about this type of TV.
The screen is a comfortable size for watching from the bed or from a chair. I was worried that 27 inches might feel too small compared with my regular TV, but for a bedroom or smaller space it actually works really well.
The rolling stand is also useful. I can move it closer when I’m watching something and push it to the side when I’m finished. The whole setup feels more practical than having another TV permanently sitting on a cabinet.
I’ve mostly used it for normal entertainment in the evening. Sometimes I watch videos, sometimes shows, and sometimes I just leave something playing while I’m doing other things.
It’s not trying to replace a huge living-room TV, and I don’t think it needs to. For a bedroom, apartment, office or other smaller space, the size and mobility make a lot of sense.

While this seems like a great product, I purchased it to use as a portable streaming tv. Even after a system update, this device does not support many of the streaming platforms that I was planning to use.
Edit to add, after researching, this device is not Play Protect Certified, meaning that the apps that will run are pirated and will not run correctly. I will be returning this item.

This is a really nice portable smart device. Ive downloaded Sling and countless other apps onto it so far. It synced with my Google account. I've had it off the charger and it lasted about 2 hours before quitting. The only thing I will say that is a disappointment, the air mouse on the remote works for a few seconds and then quits. The pointer quits moving on screen. The other buttons work on the remote. I've tried new batteries. Hopefully the replacement remote will work. The picture quality is good.
Update 9/4/26: ok so I had this for about a month. It crashes a lot. The screen will freeze up and it will restart on its own. Just be warned.

Overall this a super convenient portable monitor with only two minor issues.
Display quality is excellent for a portable monitor. Text is crisp, sharp, and very easy to read. There are numerous display modes (text, web, presentation, gaming, etc...). I especially noticed reduced eye strain compared to my other portable monitor. Super light weight and perfectly sized for travel, work, PC repair, and when troubleshooting headless systems. This monitor worked with my phones, laptops, and tower PCs flawlessly; no drivers or setup was required. The stand reduces placement versatility, as it is on the right hand side only, so it's not easy to balance this monitor on smaller surfaces. The kick stand in general is a bit wobbly and could be improved. No carrying case or protective sleeve is included. That really hurts the value proposition quite a bit. Now I have to buy something to protect the monitor for travel, so that really reduces the value for the money.
Overall this portable has good image quality, is lightweight, and is versatile enough to use for spreadsheets and light gaming, but it really should have come with a case, and the stand needs to be revised for stability.

I picked up this portable monitor as a travel second screen and it’s been a really useful piece of gear. The screen looks sharp for 1080p, the matte finish helps a lot with glare, and the IPS panel gives good viewing angles so it still looks clear even when you’re not sitting perfectly centered. It’s slim and light enough to toss in a laptop bag, and it’s nice having a second display when you’re working on the road or just want more screen space at home.
Setup is straightforward. If your laptop supports full-function USB-C (video out), it’s the best experience because you can do one cable for power and display. If not, the mini HDMI works fine, and you can power it through USB-C. I’ve used it with a laptop and also tested it with a console, and it’s a nice little “anywhere screen” for a PS/Xbox/Switch setup when you don’t want to drag a full monitor around. The built-in kickstand is convenient too. It’s not a heavy-duty stand like a tablet case, but it holds the screen at a comfortable angle for normal use.
One important note, and this is where I want people to be careful: just because the cable and connectors are “20A style” or accept a 20A-shaped plug, that doesn’t mean you should treat it like it’s safe to run a full 20A load from a standard household 15A outlet. The wall outlet and circuit are still the limiting factor. I’d use this as a heavy-duty adapter/extension for normal loads within typical household limits, but I would not plug in a true 20A load and assume it’s fine just because the female end supports that plug shape. If you don’t know the draw of your device, it’s worth checking first.
Overall, as a portable monitor, it’s a great value. Clear image, easy connections, and genuinely useful for travel or gaming setups. Just be mindful of power and use it responsibly with whatever source you’re plugging into.

I love this screen! It is perfect to take on the go and use this screen instead of having to watch videos on your phone. It’s also great as a screen extension for a laptop. It’s beyond lightweight and easy to store. Set up is easy and it don’t take long at all to connect the wires and go. Easily this is great value for what you are spending! 10/10 recommend!

This portable monitor is ultra-lightweight, weighing in at 1lb, 7.5oz per my tests.
It includes a built-in "kickstand" on the rear, or one can also insert a pencil/pen in the hole on the bottom right corner of the monitor for a make-shift kickstand as well. It also includes the monitor mount screw receptacles on the back.
It has only a handful of connections and button. USB-C signal input, USB-C power input, and mini-HDMI input. It has buttons for power, menu "select", menu + and menu -. The nice thing is that for devices with ample power to the USB-C output jack, you can both power and send the video signal to this monitor with a single USB-C cable. The manual cautions about running the monitor at full brightness in these instances. The monitor was instantly recognized and installed by my laptop. Navigating through the various menu settings was a cinch with the three buttons on the lower left corner of the monitor.
A couple nitpicks I have about it is that it didn't come with a great method to store it when not in use. The included box is bulky and contains several pieces of foam that go around the monitor (confusing). Ultimately, I will probably try to find an enlarged "bubble-pack" shipping envelope and store the monitor there when not in use to keep the screen free from dust and scratches. The kickstand is a bit on the "light duty" end of the spectrum, but should work fine as long as the monitor isn't jarred. I would've preferred for the power button to be on the front of the monitor and all the cable inputs on the rear of the monitor for a cleaner installed look.
Also a caveat... not all USB-C cables pass video signals - some are just for power and/or charging. Be sure to use either the included USB-C or one rated for video transmission. (The included cable is not quite as flexible as I'd have hoped for and it retains bends even after being unpacked.) Also, not all USB-C jacks on devices support video transmission. In my particular case this monitor worked splendidly with my laptop, but not at all with my Dell Optoplex 7070 computer's USB-C jack - if I wanted to use the monitor with the Dell I'd need to pick up a DisplayPort adapter.
Overall this is a handy accessory to have and I'm eager to find even more uses for it. It holds its own among larger, more expensive monitors.

This review is for a VLH 15.6" 1080p Portable Monitor. This is a handy little device. It has two ports for video out: a mini HDMI port and a USB-C port. There is also a USB-C port that is for power only (no video) and a micro USB port, which is supposed to be for component output. So in that sense it may have three video out ports. It comes with a mini HDMI to standard HDMI cable.
The first thing I noticed about this monitor is that it's both thin and light. I like the fact that it came with a mini HDMI cable because that may have been a hassle to find. There is also a VESA mount on the back.
The monitor works well and so does the included cable. There is one thing that concerns me with this product, however. It is so thin that I feel like I can easily break it. To be clear, I have not damaged it at all, but it's so thin and light that I worry about it. It would be nice to have a case to protect it, though there is a bezel around it like other monitors.
Overall, I like the monitor and I think it'll come in handy. The VESA mount makes it have multiple uses because you can attach a stand to it, so I like that as well. I recommend this if you want an inexpensive travel monitor, but it could also be too thin and light for its own good.

Do I ever really need a second screen for my phone? No, of course not. Is it pretty cool that this works? Yeah, it really is. It took a bit for this guy to get delivered but, once it did, I popped it open right away. First impressions, the packaging was excellent. You'd think you were buying a full blown laptop. Solid box. Styrofoam suspension inserts and the screen wrapped in a soft protective bag. Nicely wrapped cables. Excellent presentation. But how does it stack up?
I pulled the screen out and unwrapped the included USB-C to USB-C cable (a USB-C to HDMI cable is also included). I flipped out the attached stand (more on that in a second) and plugged the cable into the screen and my phone. Like magic, my phone (a Samsung) immediately recognized the screen and prompted me to use my phone as a touchpad. In all honesty, most of the credit there goes to Samsung, but the screen gets props as well for having nice tight fitting USB-C connections as well as snappy response. There was no delay after plugging in the cable. If you haven't tried using your Samsung phone (or tablet) with an external screen, give it a shot. The DeX software is pretty cool. It's like having a laptop in your pocket.
As for this screen, colors and response times are great. Clarity is just what you'd expect from a laptop. I was able to watch a YT video on this just like I would on a laptop. No lag or tearing and you'd never know you were looking at a budget screen. I've included a couple of pics of websites and you can see they look just as you'd expect.
The only major downside I've found so far is the flip out stand. For whatever reason, designers decided to put the stand all the way to one side of the screen. That's fine, but then they also made it roughly 30% of the width of the screen. The result is the screen being quite unstable and wanting to tip over very easily. I'm fairly certain the screen will not be happy with constantly falling over, which may lead to damage and, with this being such a low cost, it'll just end up in the landfill. This could easily have been avoided by putting the small flip out stand in the center of the screen or making the stand wider so it could fully support the screen. I hope future revisions will take that advice.
All told, I'm quite impressed with what you get for what you paid. I'm not sure how much I'll use this screen going forward but it's handy to have when the time arrives. If you're in the market for something like this, I'd say you can't really go wrong.

This monitor offers a solid portable display option for gaming on the go. The 15.6-inch screen has a Full HD 1080p resolution and runs at a smooth 60Hz refresh rate. It’s lightweight and slim, making it easy to pack for travel, and the IPS panel ensures consistent colors even when viewed from the side.
The instant one-cable setup via USB-C is very convenient, providing both power and video without extra adapters. The brightness of 300 cd/m² and 800:1 contrast ratio deliver clear, vibrant images with good detail in both bright and dark scenes. It’s compatible with multiple consoles and gaming laptops, which adds to its versatility.
The price feels a bit steep for what you get, especially considering it lacks higher refresh rates that some gamers might want. Also, the speakers are not very powerful, so external audio is recommended for the best experience. Despite this, it performs well as a secondary screen for travel gaming.
This monitor is a practical choice for those needing a portable, plug-and-play gaming display with solid image quality. It’s especially useful for console gamers on the move who want quick setup and decent visuals without bulk.

The VLH 15.6” portable monitor features a 1080P Full HD IPS display that delivers clear image quality and good color consistency. Text appears sharp for productivity tasks, and videos look smooth with solid viewing angles. The IPS panel helps maintain brightness and clarity even when viewed from different positions.
Setup is straightforward. The dual USB-C and HDMI inputs make it compatible with laptops, PCs, and gaming consoles such as the Switch or PS5. When connected through a supported USB-C port, the one-cable setup helps reduce clutter by handling both power and display through a single connection. HDMI works reliably as well, though it may require separate power depending on the device.
One important detail is that this monitor does not include built-in speakers. Audio will need to come from your laptop, console, or external speakers/headphones. For users who rely on integrated monitor audio, this is something to consider before purchasing.
The build is slim and lightweight, making it easy to travel with or use as a second screen for remote work. It feels sturdy enough for regular handling, and brightness controls are simple to adjust. The VESA 75×75 compatibility adds flexibility for mounting if you want a more permanent setup.
In terms of value, this monitor offers strong portability and good image quality for productivity and casual gaming. As long as you are aware that it does not include speakers, it serves as a practical and affordable external display option.

This monitor is a game-changer if you need more screen real-estate when on the go. Whether you need to extend your screen for more viewing space or need to mirror your desktop to show clients, this is great value.
All this said, it is delicate and the stand in the back could be better.
Here's what stands out to me.
✅ Love the Plug & Play for all devices that support USB-C video like iPhone, iPad, mac laptops, and PCs.
✅ Great flexibility by also having an HDMI port. It's awesome they provide the essential HDMI mini cable for this but you will have to run the USB-C port for power in this setup.
✅ For transporting, the size is just right for laying on top of a laptop and putting in your bag. The laptop surface can protect the screen as the screen frame keeps the screen slightly away from the laptop surface (assuming their isn't an embossed emblem on your laptop.)
✅ Buttons on the front make it easy to adjust settings.
☑️ Stand in the back is not as robust as it could be. It props up the monitor but it's easy to knock over.
✅ Great brightness and picture.
I'm really enjoying this monitor so far but if there are any changes in my opinion or its quality, I'll be sure to report back in. 🤞 I hope you found my notes, pictures and video useful. Be well! ❤️🔥

This FHD monitor is essentially a laptop/notebook 15.6" screen repurposed as a travel monitor. The colors look good on it being an IPS monitor, and it has several ways to connect it to a computer (Mini HDMI and USB-C). Both cables are included. The power draw is low, and you could theoretically use a small AC power adapter to run it without issue (not included).
As for gaming, it is only a 60Hz refresh rate without any variable refresh rate or "gaming" features like that. It will certainly work for gaming, but I'd look elsewhere if I were serious about a gaming portable monitor. This is more of a general purpose portable monitor.
The kickstand on the rear is a little flimsy. I don't know if I'd trust it for more than a quick use. There are VESA mounting points on the rear, and I have found that it fits fine in a desktop "cell phone" style mount that expands up to about 9 inches (see picture).
While I wouldn't say this is a bad deal, you can probably find an alternative using a similar 60Hz, 1080P, IPS panel for cheaper (some even come with a smart cover).

Worked great hooked up to my Legion Go S, just requires a mini hdmi cable to usb c to work. The screen was quite bright and the colors looked good for a 1080P screen. My games looked crisp and I enjoyed having the bigger fov playing my games. Included is a clip of the start screen from fallout 4. It does come with a usb c cable already so it can be powered, and a mini hdmi to hdmi cable, but it still requires a mini hdmi to usb c cable if you want to use it for a handheld pc. The monitor also has vesa mount screws if you want to mount it, along with a built in stand.

My personal home computer and also my work from home computers both have dual monitors and whenever I go somewhere whether it's officing at the office or using my computer while on vacation, I never feel as productive as I do when I have dual monitors. When you've used dual monitors for almost 26 years, going to a single monitor definitely makes you feel limited. Now lugging around and actual monitor isn't practical however this monitor definitely fits the bill.
Upon receiving the monitor it was in a plain cardboard box with only the padding to protect the display, a couple of cables and instructions. The unit itself is very light, which is a good thing for weight savings but at times it does feel fragile. There is a fine line between light and substantial, and this errors on the side of light. One thing that I really like about this unit is that it comes with a myriad of ports for connection Also it has OSD menus as well to be able to adjust settings on the monitor. The other thing that really drew me to this model is that it had a VESA mount on the back. I envisioned being able to mount this next to my Intel NUC, which at this time is headless but using a simple monitor like this that only requires one (1) cable is awesome! The only thing that this unit lacks is built in speakers and some type of cover to protect the screen. If it has that it'd be perfect for me.
I went and grabbed my Microsoft Surface Pro 9 and for kicks, just plugged in the USB C from the SP9 to the monitor and it immediately recognized it. By default it duplicated the display so I went into the Windows menus and changed it to extend the display so it would act as a secondary display. This worked quite well especially because the kickstand on the back allowed me to angle the screen to mirror my Surface. After playing around with it, I decide to give it a go and plug in my Samsung S23 Ultra into it. I wanted to see what would happen as do remember I'm not running any power to this display and have only the USB C cable connected. To my surprise once connected to my phone, it automatically enabled DEX and made my Smartphone into a computer. I could use my smartphone as a trackpad to move the cursor around on the screen. Very nice!
Now I'm sure you're now asking about the display itself. The display is crisp and bright enough for what it is. It's not super bright but if it was it would drain the battery on your device much quicker. However for me it's bright enough. It's nice for productivity work, as well as for watching movies. Now this does say it's a gaming monitor however for me I don't game. Also, typically gamers would want a higher refresh rate than 60hz so I would say that it's probably not the best choice. The viewing angles are pretty good as well from side to side and up and down. However there are some limitations with it as with any monitor. On the bottom right side it has a little whole that I was unsure of what the reason was but in the manual it states it's for a pen or pencil to help use it for a stand. My guess is that the instructions were written for many different models as I found inaccuracies such as the function of the hole and also that it stated it had a different type of stand.
So what do I think of this monitor. For me it's perfect. It's light enough, bright enough and has the portability as well as functionality that I can use. I can use it daily for my Intel NUC when I need to manage my Plex server and when I need to take it I can just unplug it and go. It's light enough that it doesn't cause any undue weigh either.
The only reason I am giving this 4 stars and not 5 is because with the price a cover should have been included with it and possibly speakers. I would have loved touchscreen as well but for the price point I understand why it didn't have them. But a cover, sleeve or something to protect the display would have been good to have at the price paid. Also, I'm not sure one would want to call it a gaming monitor, I'd say it's more productivity than gaming. But all in all it's a nice monitor and I'm happy with it.
P.S. I'm trying to attach photos of it at different brightness levels after setting my phone on a fixed ISO and shutter speed. We'll see if it translates well.

I got this to replace a small monitor I use with my security cameras. That monitor was about the same size, but much heavier, needed an AC plug, had a big footprint and was just not ideal. This replacement has been great, it was very easy to setup, and I can run it from the USB plug on the camera DVR, using much less power with a nicer picture, too. I took a few pictures to show the image quality. Ignore the black square on the display in the pictures, that camera is not plugged in, the monitor is fine. First image is the display, second image is camera up close to the display in upper left corner so you can get an idea of pixel clarity, and third image is basically the same idea, up close but with enough of those buttons in the lower left of the device visible that you can get an idea of scale.
I would give this 4.5 of 5 stars, but that's not an option, so it's 5 of 5 rounded up.
The things I would take half a star off for are:
* no way to rotate the display in it's settings that I can find. That would have been nice so I could run the cables a different way, not a big deal though. Most systems you would plug it into can rotate the display in software anyways.
* feels a bit delicate like you should be careful not to squish, drop, bend etc the frame at all. It's good and well built, but it doesn't seem like you fend off a bear attack with it.
But these are really minor gripes and the fact that I can run it off a regular, low-power USB plug more than makes up for it, especially such a large display with the nice picture it has. Also it includes a Regular HDMI to Smaller HDMI cable like you'll probably need, so that saves $$$.
The price is very reasonable for a USB powered display of this size. I have other smaller USB displays that cost almost as much as this one does, and they're a quarter of the size.
So I would recommend this product for the value and functionality it offers, as long as you don't need to fight off a bear with it you should be fine.

This mobile monitor has been awesome. No, it’s not the best screen on the market—but it doesn’t claim to be, and the price certainly doesn’t demand it. For what it’s designed to do, it performs extremely well.
Portable monitors in general have been a huge upgrade for my mobile office. I’m very accustomed to working with multiple screens, and having a second display on the go is almost a necessity for me now. As for this specific monitor, it’s been a great solution.
The display is bright enough for indoor use without any issues, even when sitting near sunlight. It can be used outdoors in direct sunlight, though glare becomes noticeable and brightness is more limited—especially compared to something like my Dell XPS 17’s screen. That said, it’s still very usable in most real-world situations.
Setup is incredibly simple. A single USB-C to USB-C cable from the monitor to my PC and it powers on automatically—no drivers, no software, no fuss. The monitor does not have an internal battery and instead draws power from the connected device. Even so, it works impressively well when plugged into my S23 Ultra. Yes, it draws from the phone’s battery, but not excessively, and it’s an excellent Samsung DeX setup. I’m actually writing this review using that exact configuration. If power draw is a concern, there’s an option to plug in a second USB-C cable to power the monitor, which then charges the phone while in use. That flexibility is a huge plus.
The included cables are thoughtful: a USB-C to USB-C cable (data, power, and display) and a mini HDMI to HDMI cable. Personally, I wish the HDMI cable were mini HDMI to mini HDMI so I could easily use it as an external monitor for my DSLR camera, but that’s a niche use case and easily solved with a different cable.
The built-in stand is slim and easy to deploy, but it’s not perfect. It’s off-center, which means when cables are plugged into the opposite side, the monitor can want to tip that direction. It hasn’t caused major problems for me, but it’s noticeable. The stand itself is also fairly flimsy—because the monitor is so light, it works fine in normal use, but I wouldn’t trust it to survive any real pressure or impact. I also wish it came with a protective sleeve, as that feels like a missed opportunity for a truly travel-focused product.
Overall, this is a simple, well-executed portable monitor that delivers exactly what it promises. It’s easy to use, versatile, and a fantastic value for anyone who needs a second screen on the go—especially if you’re using laptops, phones with desktop modes, or other mobile setups.

I travel a lot for work and for hockey and when I do I often take a laptop and my Nintendo switch with me. When I saw this screen pop up amIbhad to snag it because I've always wanted to be able to plug in my switch to something bigger on the go and miss my extra monitors when I'm away from my office.
This screen comes in a relatively non descript box, but is well packaged with nice close celled foam. It was drop tested in the box courtesy of my toddler snagging it off the counter when I brought it inside and the screen held up perfectly fine thanks to the good package design.
As for performance, it is decently bright when plugged into both my Switch and my laptop. I tested it using the included USB C and Mini HDMI cable to my laptop and Windows immediately recognized it as a new display. I will note Windows got a bit confused, I suspect because I was using USB C as a power source, and thought it was actually two displays, but I was able to configure it just fine to work without issue. I watched a video and loaded up a video game on it to see how it looked and was quite impressed. The controls on the panel are also easy to adjust using the On Screen Display and you can tweak all the usual settings. There are also default modes for things like movies and games to help adjust for those types of viewing experiences.
I tested this on my switch by using my phones USB C charger to power it and plugging the provided Mini HDMI into my switch dock playing in "docked" mode. It worked picking up the display immediately same as if I plugged it into a television. What's nice about this is that means it will work on an airplane for me too if I want. I frequently travel 16+ hours for work via plane and have the fortune to sit in a seat with power delivery and space enough for something like this so it'll be a nice upgrade from just looking at the handheld screen of the switch. It will also serve well in hotel rooms where I frequently struggle to get access to the HDMI ports or for lounges between flights where my coworkers and I can have Mario kart races with a bigger display.
I will suggest you also order a case to go with it as it doesnt come with one. Not a deal breaker at this price point and for how well it works though. It does seem like something soft sided that can slide into a backpack would do, but I wouldn't want to travel without a case because the entire screen is quite thin. Despite being thin it does still have 75x75 VESA mounting options which is really nice if you want to use this in a permanent location. It also has a kick stand on the back which holds up well, but I suspect may be a potential point of failure if not handled with care.
Overall, I'm very impressed with what this display does for what it costs. If you're in the market for a portable display this is one I'd consider as a first point. I'm sure I'll learn more about how to use this thing more effectively as I travel with it but so far I'm very impressed.

✅ For transporting, the size is just right for laying on top of a laptop and putting in your bag. The laptop surface can protect the screen as the screen frame keeps the screen slightly away from the laptop surface (assuming their isn't an embossed emblem on your laptop.)
✅ Buttons on the front make it easy to adjust settings.
☑️ Stand in the back is not as robust as it could be. It props up the monitor but it's easy to knock over.
✅ Great brightness and picture.
I'm really enjoying this monitor so far but if there are any changes in my opinion or its quality, I'll be sure to report back in. 🤞 I hope you found my notes, pictures and video useful. Be well! ❤️🔥

Well, it's an OK screen. I'm not in love with it though. It will be handy for a few of the headless machine I have kicking around. It's always a pain to have to get out a full size monitor and hook it up and this makes that process somewhat easier. It worked flawlessly with my MacBook as a second screen but as you can see from the picture, the color depth of the display is lacking. Everything is more than a bit washed out. As much as I played with the settings, I couldn't get an image equivalent to what I'm normally used to. Not even close. Same for the PS5 output, playable but very washed out.

This 1080P travel monitor is a game-changer for a mobile setup. It’s incredibly slim and light, slipping into a laptop bag without adding bulk. The plug-and-play functionality works perfectly over Type-C, so you can run it off a laptop or even a phone with just one cable.
The HDR display is crisp and bright enough for gaming on a Switch or Xbox, and the built-in kickstand is sturdy enough that it doesn't tip over easily. It’s an excellent value for anyone needing a dual-monitor setup on the go or a larger screen for mobile gaming.
I've been using it as a dual monitor for my laptop... Never done it before but it was super easy to figure out and changes how I work now. Its awesome being able to have 2 full size windows up at the same time. Especially for the kind of work I do I'm constantly changing tabs to take notes, code, whatever. Not anymore! I love it, and it's even a little bigger than my laptop screen streaming xbox games. Not as sharp as my 4k monitor but barely even noticeable for what I'm doing/playing. Worth it!

From the time I opened the package to the time I had the monitor working was about three minutes. Easy to set up. Once you open the box, you’ll see there are two different cables, one that plugs in to the USB-C port on the laptop and the HDMI on the computer. With that cable, you will need to run power. But I am using the second cable, which is a USB-C to USB-C. No power required. I put it to my USB-C port on the computer and ran it to the monitor and within seconds, it was working perfectly. I went into settings and instead of mirror my display I chose to extend my display. That now increases my working space. It’s fantastic. The display is nice and clear. There is a menu button to adjust the settings and color and a plus minus button where you can adjust the brightness without going into the menu. It’s very ergonomic. Very convenient.

This is an OK, but very basic portable monitor. It’s extremely lightweight, which can sometimes be a plus- but in this case, it makes the it look and feel cheap. The monitor can be mounted, or held up with its kickstand- which is also a bit flimsy.
The picture quality is pretty good, about as sharp and clear as other monitors that are under $100.
Comes with two cables (USB C, HDMI), but no case or cover to protect the screen. Unless you are personally carrying the screen around, it will most certainly get scratched during travel, or even just being stored when not in use.
I think for around $20 more you can find a better one that comes with case. If you’re looking for something inexpensive that works, this one is fine.
