Love this monitor. So easy to pack and take with on trips.

Ive just recently purchased this InnoView Portable Monitor for Laptop, and Im very satisfied with it, so far. I cannot yet speak to the longevity of this monitor, because Ive only had it for a few weeks, and I have not yet had occasion to use it for travel, which is the primary reason I purchased it. However, what I can say is that it is a very nice monitor that connects easily to my notebook computer, using two cords provided by the company (using one cord for video and another cord to draw power from my notebook computer). The company also provides a third cord for separate power to the monitor, if needed; I dont need that, but its nice to have. Id thought Id be able to just use one cord to connect the monitor to my computer, but Im fine with the two cord connection. The color, resolution, etc. of the monitor are fine. No problem. Its not top quality, but for the price it is very reasonable and not a problem at all. What I really like, too, are: the monitor has a matte finish, which is what I wanted, and which I dont think a lot of monitors have; and that the monitor has a very good protective cover that doubles as a very sturdy monitor stand that provides two different angle positions. In addition, the customer service has been excellent. Ive had a few small questions, and company representatives have gotten back to me very quickly.

Portability and ease of use

I bought this monitor so I have a second monitor to hook up to my work laptop when I travel. Im used to always having two screens and this monitor is good quality and economical. I did buy a more sturdy aluminum stand for the monitor though. The hard plastic case stand was not sturdy enough for me.

I just want to start off by saying that I really like this monitor, it has features that I was looking for that are often missing in others. I like that I can use a single USB-C cable to power and display image, so when I plug it into a modern laptop like my MacBook Pro, its seamless. I also like that I have the option to use mini-HDMI connector for my older devices that only use HDMI for video. And it comes with a USB-A to USB-C cable for power in case your computer doesnt come with USB-C. The connectivity on this monitor and the cables provided are very well thought out. My only downside is that I think the cables are slightly too short, especially the USB-A to USB-C cable, as that is the one used for power and should be longer for convenience. One major reason I bought this was that it has VESA mounting capability. I havent tried it yet as Im still waiting for my monitor arm to come, but I just thought it was a major plus to have that option. Will update my review once Ive given that a try. Another minor thing to be aware of, the bezel around the display is silver but looks white in the pictures. If you have an all-white setup and this is important to you, take it into account, but in my opinion it doesnt look bad. That also reminds me that I did not like the sticker on the bezel. It comes off easily but leaves adhesive residue that is a bit hard to remove and can ruin the look a bit.

Great monitor. Works well with my HP laptop running Windows 11.

This monitor provides great convenience and does exactly what you need it to do. Setup was easy and the images quality is satisfactory. The monitor is a little larger, wider than my laptop and again, for mobility, this is a very nice product.

Some connectivity issues - didnt work with my 2018 Mac Mini; message said something about no cable being connected, although the screen was powered on via the USB-C cable included. Worked fine when using this cable plus the supplied HDMI cable. Also worked fine with a 2017 13-inch MacBook Pro over USB-C alone. Yes, I know its a pain to test products like this with so many potential hosts, but there we are. Im a little disappointed, but Im keeping it. Image quality is very good.

This monitor is the perfect companion to my macbook pro. Its size and thinness makes it light and easy to add to my bag with macbook. I am learning to code so I put instructional video on the monitor and I practice writting code on my macscreen. The settings on the mac allow me to use this monitor vertically. I am does not support that natively , but the macbook display settings lets me do it, if i need to. Mostly i just use it horizontally like in my picture. No glare on the screen. it works with JUST ONE CABLE connected to my Mac. You need to choose the correct USB-C port on the mac to get full brightness without plugging in the aditional power cord to the monitor. When the port does not provide enough power you will still be able to use it, but brightness will default to level30 and that is fine for indoor use. With the correct port on the Mac, the monitor will be able to display full brightness(100). Its truely an economical and quality way to extend your screen real estate! You really dont need anything more expensive. i have tried others more expensive, and the quality is the same or less. and those monitors are heavier or harder to carry around. Thanks INNOVIEW!

EDIT: Got a very nice response from InnoView. Apparently you need a full service USB-C cable. I have never heard of such a thing. Above and beyond customer service. Picture quality is awesome. Construction seems good. I really have no complaints, except.... I bought a USB-C cable that was longer than the one that came with the monitor. It doesnt work... no signal. It is a high quality cable. No problem there. I really find it odd and would give this product a higher rating if not for that. What do I do when/if this cable stops working.
