KYY Portable Monitor 15.6inch 1080P FHD USB-C Laptop Monitor HDMI Computer Display HDR IPS Gaming Monitor w/Premium Smart Cover & Speakers, External Monitor for Laptop PC Mac Phone PS4 Xbox Switch

The display backlight failed on my early 2013 Macbook Pro last week, during law school, and this seemed like a good temporary solution before I could get another computer. I ordered it Tuesday night and received it Thursday afternoon. My laptop only has an HDMI output, so I was glad this screen too that input, not just USB-C. I use this in front of the old display, held up by Velcro dots. Its pretty bright (although not quite so bright as the original screen in full sunlight), and extremely sharp. Did have to do some color calibration and tweaking of settings for optimal display, but thats expected. I also love that it can be powered by the USB port on my laptop. Only real downside (aside from clunkiness) with this setup is the USB power and laptops dedicated GPU mean reduced battery life, but its still cheaper than a new laptop. Also, I have to manually adjust the brightness based on my setting, but thats to be expected. As others have said, this monitor might not be the best for audiovisual work, and I cant speak as to gaming delay (although I notice no input lag in regular use), but for text-based work (in-class notes, and the occasional YouTube video) its more than adequate—actually a bit better than Id hoped for the price. That said, I have noticed only one issue with the monitor itself: At certain low brightness settings (around 1-5 out of 100), a weird quiet buzzing noise comes through the speakers, even when muted (I use the MacBooks built-in speakers, rather than this monitors). This usually goes away with an increase of a brightness point or two, but is a bit weird. Aside from that, a week later of daily portable in-class use, its working well for me.

I bought this for my wife to use when she goes to her WeWork office. Setup is super easy and it comes with everything needed to connect it. As long as your laptop has a thunderbolt connector, you do NOT need to use the included AC adapter. Picture, size, and screen quality are all great for work related tasks. The included cover and light weight make transporting it easy...she can just drop it in her laptop bag along with her other stuff to go from home to office.

I was a bit hesitant to buy this portable monitor at first, but after setting it up and tweaking the display settings a bit, I found it to be convenient, compact, and a great addition to my home work space. However, after using this portable monitor for four days, Im beginning to have my doubts again. For three out of the four days, Ive had issues powering the portable monitor on. In order to get my monitor to turn on I have to alternate the external power source cord between the two usb ports each time I attempted to turn the monitor on. If this werent an issue, Id say this monitor is great after customizing the display settings to meet your preferences. In summary, this monitor is decent, or even good at times, but Id recommend going with one that has a more dependable power system than this one, especially for the price.

Great product—great size for travel and relatively good picture. Given the cost, it’s really good overall. It’s nice that it comes with multiple wire options as well for plugging into your laptop or other device. The only issues I have is that there’s no volume control or way to adjust the brightness on the screen that I can find. Additionally, the magnets on the case are pretty weak.

I needed a good monitor to connect to a Raspberry Pi. After trying several different more formal monitors with stands I came across this one. It was less expensive than most of the others so I gave it a try. Im so glad I did. It is terrific. The color and resolution is excellent, and it works perfectly for my intended purpose. Ive been using it for several years now and have absolutely no complaints. All praise for the great quality. Id buy it again in a heat beat.

Small details render in a low quality way. Can see pixels around the edges of a heart emoji, for example. My built-in laptop monitor of the same size and resolution does not have this problem. Other than that, its an elegant, lightweight, straightforward screen.

We use this monitor for our outdoor cameras and it is great. Nice clear picture!!!

A light product which is excellent for home use, as well as for travelling. It is also a viable option for gaming with

Full disclosure this is my second monitor from KYY as my first one broke. However, KYY was very generous in helping me resolve my issue and replace the damaged monitor. The monitor visuals are fantastic, and it is an extremely handy option to have as I primarily work remote and need a second monitor for when I am hot-desking around the company sites. Very useful, great picture, very convenient. Extremely useful for co-op video game nights as the monitor can be powered completely by an Xbox or similar, meaning a great small footprint in a couch gaming night. Very impressed by the KYY team in their customer service and product.

Pros - High Quality Picture - Thin - Good Build Quality - Comes w/ all the cable types you would ever need! Cons - Does not seem to work with 3rd party USB-C to HDMI cables - Wish it came with 90 degree cables for a cleaner look when plugged into the side of the monitor Overall a great quality to price ratio. I am using it as a second monitor under my main ultrawide and its doing the job perfectly!
