> 24 hourI use this at home for a 3rd monitor to have communications apps on for work, then I also use it for a second laptop screen when traveling. Its easy to set up, light, good picture, and a great value- I dont think you can find a better monitor for this price out there. It also comes with a mini-HDMI to HDMI adapter, which is nice. I didnt rate its gaming performance as this is not a gaming monitor.

> 24 hourIve got a Dell 13 laptop that I work from home with... Well at my age, thats a mighty small laptop screen - and I have to have multiple programs open including screen sharing - (I work in IT). So I sit inside slaved to a big monitor. I want to work sometimes outside, its spring you know... I need another monitor, bigger than 13 if possible, that I can take outside. This is the size of a very thin 15 laptop and a fraction of the weight. I sit at my patio table, under my umbrella, with the laptop plugged into AC. I connect a USB-C cable from the laptop to this monitor- for both power and video- And just a USB hub into the one USB-3 plug on the computer for my mouse/headset and I am ready to work. Cake. I got my ice-tea and I can work. As for the quality, if feels really good. The cover becomes a stand, and it has VESA mount holes on the back that are easy to get to because the cover is magnetic, in case you really want to mount it somewhere. Image is sharp and colorful, I have no trouble running my screen sharing in it and Zoom meetings. Having dual monitors outside on a wonderful spring day is a great way to manage stress at work.

> 24 hourIf youre like me and still have a VGA backup monitor in your closet for just in case, this monitor is the upgrade backup youre looking for. Ive tested it with my Nintendo Switch, and can run both off of my power bank. You have to detach the joycons or use a pro controller, because the joycons will keep toggling the charge if theyre attached. I tested it by going straight USB-C from the 2080 in my desktop - it worked immediately as a second monitor and took power straight from the GPU, no extra cords required. My final test was on my laptop - I plugged it into the USB-C port and it immediately gave me a mirrored desktop. Toggle the windows display settings to Extend, and youve got a fully functional second monitor. Theres a two year warranty on this thing, so I feel pretty comfortable tossing out the old VGA backup monitor (and all of the related cables from that era) and moving forward with this as a backup.

> 24 hourRecently used this monitor on a trip when I needed to get some work done. I love that it is so portable but quality like my monitor at home. I’ve got a Mac mini, so it means that I can use my actual computer when traveling instead of logging in remotely. It came with all the cords I need to hook it up anywhere. I love the USBc cord since it does power and visual/audio at the same time. Definitely a must buy.

> 24 hourI went into looking for a portable monitor with the hopes of: 1. Being able to store it easily when not in use 2. Being able to carry it around when needed 3. Only needing one cable for power and display 4. Having a sturdy, integrated kickstand instead of a smart cover A lot of the portable monitors I saw easily hit the first three points, but the last one didnt seem to be as common. I almost wanted to give in until I saw this one, and so far, it has exceeded my expectations. The picture quality is amazing, the kickstand is far from fragile and it even comes with a sleeve that can protect the monitor and carry all accessories. I can say that I am very pleased and would definitely recommend it to anyone else looking for a portable monitor!

> 24 hourI received my Cocopar monitor and immediately plugged in to my iPad Pro to try it out. Made a few adjustments, such as, brightness, color and set HDR to auto and it worked great with the USB-C cable provided. The iPad provided the necessary power to power both the iPad and monitor. Make sure you are using the magic keyboard with a secondary charging port or a USB-C hub for prolonged use as the monitor will drain the iPad fairly quickly. Evening using Shiftscreen software to use this monitor as an extended monitor for my iPad Pro worked good. The response time was good and the monitor worked great throwing some ultra 4k HDR video to the screen, but I was using the HDMI cable and powering the monitor separately and not through the iPad.. I didnt notice any dropped frames. Plugging this into my MacBook Pro worked great with no complaints for a portable second monitor and was pretty much plug and play as an extended monitor. Even on my work laptop, a windows machine, with a little click here and there in the settings it was up and running quickly. The monitor is a solid metal build and the bottom flips out instead of a screen cover providing the stand and there is a rubberized strip on the monitor to keep it from slipping. Multiple viewing angles are possible and had no fear of it falling over or slipping out of place. It is light and easy to put in my laptop sleeve to carry with me. There is no screen protection so you have to be a little careful when putting in the same bag as your laptop, but included in the box was a protective case which is padded and includes a zippered pocket for cables and other accessories. I would use the case, although it does add some extra bulk to the portability. Some have mentioned they are unable to get High Dynamic Range (HDR) output, but it will not output HDR unless there is HDR content to show. I know that when looking, for example, at the setting on an iPad Pro, it only shows SDR output, but it will automatically chanage then viewing HDR content. This is a good portable monitor. Dont expect this to compete with $1500 or $5000 monitors, it wont. However, for the times you need to bring along a second screen to be more productive this is a good one to purchase. Its well built, has a base to support multiple viewing angles and multiple ports.

> 24 hourThis monitor is a lifesaver. It is slim, lightweight, and reasonably durable. I drive about 500 miles a week, go through airports and hotels, setting up two or three times a week. Recommended for anyone who needs a portable monitor that plugs and plays instantly! I have had GREAT customer service with personal and fast attention from real human beings at Cocopar when I needed a new cord (provided free of charge!) and have purchased two monitors in the last two years. PLUS the monitor feels and looks sleek and high quality. Professional enough for mainstream administrative functions.

> 24 hourI got this to use as a second screen for my work laptop while traveling. It is so perfect for this and, as a bonus, I can also use it to watch movies from my phone!
