> 3 dayI picked this up thinking that despite it saying that it is a Macbook screen extender; that it could actually work on other laptops. However it cannot. It is tiny and would only fit a macbook air; it wont even fit a normal macbook (at least the ones that I have seen and the measurements I looked up). The screen is very small at 12 but the visibility of the screen itself isnt that great. Contrast is pretty poor but motion @ 60Hz is good (as shown by pictures). I just had to hold the monitor up to my laptop to do the testing. it comes with a built in USB-C cable (which also is dangerous if it breaks) and has an angle that is really only built for a macbook air.... This portable screen isnt very versatile as it has no stand and no way to use it with anything BUT a laptop that it can mount to the back of with magnets / glue which is pretty nuts.... So if your laptop doesnt match it exactly (just like none of mine do) it can literally not be used. So overall I put it back in the box because I dont have a laptop that matches this little screen also the fact that the box has a different brand than the external box and the brand in the listing, which is sketchy.

> 3 dayI ordered this monitor not realising it was designed specifically for the MacBook Pro. My wife owns one, but she didnt really need an extra monitor, while I was in dire need for my Dell XPS 13. Fortunately the monitor is also compatible with my Dell. Sort of. The backplate of the monitor is shaped to fit the Macbook, with slightly curved edges to match its contours, so it doesnt attach very well to my square edged Dell. It still works, though. The image quality is very good, though not quite up to the standard of my own laptop (which has a 4K screen, so I wasnt expecting it to). Colour representation is pretty accurate, and I like the matte screen. Im giving this monitor 4 stars simply because I dont think theres any real point in making a monitor that only fits a specific laptop. Ive tested plenty of excellent monitors that can be easily attached to laptops of any size, so this seems like a solution in search of a problem. Other than that, though, its very good.

> 3 dayI get spoiled when I’m in the office and I am able to use my three screens at all times. Then when I leave the office and I am reduced to just my laptop screen, I feel like I’m missing a big part of what allows me to be productive. This additional screen and its portability with my laptop, gives me the extended outlook that I need to be productive when I’m on the road. The color and clarity of the screen is top notch and the portability of the additional screen is perfect. Easily installed and even easier to use, I recommend this to anyone who travels for business and would love to have an additional screen available to them. Good quality materials are used in the manufacturing of the screen which allows it to be thin yet crystal clear. I cannot say enough good things about this product.

> 3 dayIts easy to use and drag across other items from your laptop to the monitor screen. It was very easy to hook up, i connected the monitor to my laptop and it automatically connected, i enjoy how easy it was to set up and it automatically connecting, I definitely reccomend this to anyone looking to have a setup of an extra monitor

> 3 dayThis works great. I love how it magnetizes on and holds there. It works with no issues and is a bonus to have available to use. The picture is pretty darn good too.

> 3 dayI misread the description and didn’t realize I was getting a monitor sized for a small MacBook. I have a 16” Windows based laptop. The good news is that it doesn’t just work on MacBooks. The monitor comes with a base plate that can be attached to the back of your laptop screen so that it becomes part of your laptop. It connects via a USB-C connection and is easy to connect and disconnect. There is a USB-C cord built in so that you don’t have a long cord to worry about when it is installed on your laptop. There is also a magnetic metal cover plate to protect the screen from damage during transport when closed. I didn’t want the screen permanently affixed to my laptop, so I use it as a separate unit. I use a regular USB-C to USB-C cable to connect as I need a little more distance than the built in one provides. This cable came with the monitor as well. I actually use the monitor in a portrait orientation with the baseplate as a base on the table next to my laptop. It works perfectly for my needs. The display size is only 6” x 10.25”, though, because of the size I ordered. Next time I’d get a larger one if possible. The monitor gets its power from the laptop so there are no other power supplies needed. The monitor has a built in speaker that can also be used for your audio output. Now for the display. The monitor has a matte anti-glare display. I’m used to a glossy high-resolution screen, so the matte display is not my favorite. The display colors are not as true either. The gray shows up with a pinkish hue unless you turn the brightness up and then it’s almost blue. There is a single wheel control for all of the settings. If you push it, a menu will come up that lets you adjust brightness, contrast, color, and a myriad of other settings through pushing and scrolling. There is even a low blue light setting, but that makes the display very yellow. I haven’t figured out the best mix of red, green, and blue to give me the white background that I want, but since I only use the monitor for text (mainly spreadsheets) I’m not as worried about the color.

> 3 dayWorks very well on my small size Macbook screen. No extra cable is needed to connect, the cable is attached to the monitor itself. Made of metal kind material but still light weight and very easy to carry around.
