cocopar Portable Travel Monitor 15.6 Inch 1080P FHD USB-C Portable Screen with Dual USB-C Mini HDMI Portable Monitor for Laptop PC Mac Surface Xbox PS5 Switch, with Cover VESA Mountable

Just what I needed for working from home and during travel. I work with spreadsheets and needed a bigger monitor for traveling. Easy set up (if you read the instructions) and very reasonably priced. So far I am very satisfied with my purchase and feel it was money well spent.

If 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.

After at least 4 days of usage now, I will say this seems like a good monitor. Of course I am fearful of cracking the screen while transporting it in my laptop bag but I figured if I was going to break it, I would have broken it by now. So far so good. I was able to figure out how to connect this monitor to my laptop using a single USB-C connection for both power and video without the need to reach out to support for help. Of course the ability for computer USB-C ports to support video-out will depend on whether or not they actually support that capability. Most computers these days still do not support it but most do have an HDMI cord for video out. The only problem with that is you have to connect a separate cord to the monitor for power. This is not an issue with this product as it is actually due to the fact HDMI cords do not transfer power through them. Also good picture quality. I hope it holds up well for a while. Only time will tell.

Got this as second monitor. Wanted something easy to setup and connect and portable for travel. Works great straight out of the box, just connect USBC to USBC and go! Picture looks great (maybe better than my actual laptop) sound is a little poor but I just make sure to use the sound on my laptop when given that option. Nice large size and easy to prop up with the included cover which was a bonus.

Wish I had gotten one sooner. I travel for work and having this extra screen makes me much more efficient. The screen is thin and fits easily in my computer bag. I am a little worried about cracking the screen since the cover is a bit thin but so far so good.

I just plugged it in and it just works! No adjustment to settings required. Thin and light! Metal frame feels like high quality construction. Kick stand holds in place no matter the angle. So far, I love it.

I have used lots of travel monitors and this one is good. It is lightweight, doesnt need to be plugged in (to anything other than your laptop), and the screen is clear. I havent had it that long, so not sure how long it will last (thats usually the issue with travel monitors), but so far, so good. I think the price point is really good too. I bought one for waaaayyy more last time, that was supposed to be amazing and it was just heavy and bulky and still broke a year after I bought it, so might as well buy the cheaper one.

I bought this a few weeks ago and have been experimenting connecting it with my devices. Ive had no issues at all and it has functioned exactly as described. It comes with everything you need to connect it to the device you want and its very clear on the details about how to use. So far so good. Would definitely recommend as an extra monitor.

This review is based on my first impression, written within the first 30 minutes after connecting the monitor to my laptop. I will update my review if the monitor develops issues in the future. This is an amazing travel monitor. The display is large and everything on the display is very easy to read. The monitor can be powered by the included AC adapter’s USB-A to USB-C cable, or by plugging the USB-A to USB-C cable between the laptop and monitor, or by plugging the USB-C to USB-C cable between the laptop and monitor. My monitor is currently powered by the USB-C to USB-C cable between the laptop and monitor, and in this configuration the AC adapter is not required. I recommend purchasing a Mini HDMI Male to Standard HDMI Female adapter, just in case you decide to use it on another computer that does not have a Standard HDMI Female connector. Just be prepared. As you can see, you have options. Please note that I do not have a MAC or Desktop PC, I ONLY have a laptop. I connect my monitor into an HP EliteBook 845 G8 Notebook PC (i.e., a laptop). The monitor is larger than my laptop’s screen, and that is perfectly fine. I like the fact that a magnetic leather is included with the monitor. I wish the package included a screen protector, but that’s not a deal breaker and not a reason to take away any stars from my rating. I have not tested the speakers. I’m not a gamer so I am unable to give a review that relates to gaming. The screen is a matte finish, not shiny, and I like that. The colors displayed on the screen are magnificent. That’s my review for now, perhaps I’ll append to this review in the future. As for now, I HIGHLY recommend this product. 5-STARS!!!

I purchased this portable monitor to use with my Lenovo ThinkPad for work while traveling. Having 2 screens is essential to my job functions. I was debating between an extendable monitor that attached right to my laptop but I decided to purchase this option after reading reviews that it is hard on the hinge. I am very pleased with it being plug and play (I use the thunder cord USB-C to USB-C) so I dont need a separate power cord. I do want to caution it will drain the power from the laptop so make sure it is fully charged if you are using this option. The kickstand is very adjustable for different angles and there is a brightness toggle one the side of it. The picture is crisp and bright and I am very happy with the monitor, wish I would have ordered one sooner.
