> 3 dayThis was packaged so “gorgeously” I was excited and wished I’d recorded myself. I didn’t know which item it was until I got to the package. It works well too once connected. I only have one drawback there’s no place to carry the cords. I know it seems simple but when you’re traveling it helps to store cords with their devices so I probably carry the whole box I might be heavier but I’ll stay organized and not leave a cord in the hotel or somewhere.

> 3 dayThis thing is awesome!! I installed it and since I had a true usb-c port the pc powered it just fine. The drivers even automatically installed when I turned the pc on. The resolution is great and the screens are way beyond anything I could have imagined. I love it. There is, however, one caveat. It appears they put so much effort into designing the most awesome monitor attachment ever made, then just went totally generic on the stand that helps hold the monitor up. I mean seriously you just pull it out and spin it a little to lock it. In my first 5 minutes of using it I had to reposition the kickstand twice. I finally used a piece of tape to hold the little flap that keeps it from retracting in place so that I could get my work done. The designed such an awesome piece then crapped out on one of the most important aspects to an item of this nature.

Greater than one weekI work entirely on the computer. I was looking for a mobile monitor for my laptop. Now I can finally work while traveling. Very well made and simple to use.wherever you are! I use this on my personal laptop and also installed a spare set of magnets to my work laptop so I can use it on those occasions when I need to travel. Transferring the monitor from one laptop to another is a snap. Having 2 monitors is a huge benefit for my productivity when traveling from my home office. Its pretty light weight as well. The stand it comes with isnt the best as it has fallen on me a few times. I work from home on it twice a week and it has been wonderful and makes work so much easier.

> 3 dayI recently purchased the Maxfree T2 Triple Portable Monitor for Laptop, and I have to say, it has been a game changer for my work setup. I use it with my MacBook Pro 14, and it works seamlessly. The picture quality is fantastic, and I love being able to extend my laptop screen to multiple monitors. The only downside to the Maxfree T2 is that its quite weighty, but it comes with a kickstand to support the weight when using. Once I got the kickstand set up, I had no issues with the weight. Additionally, the monitor does require a driver to work, but the installation process was straightforward, and once installed, the monitor was very effective to use. Overall, I highly recommend the Maxfree T2 Triple Portable Monitor for Laptop. Its a bit of an investment, but if youre looking for a high-quality portable monitor thats compatible with a MacBook Pro 14, this is a great option. The picture quality is top-notch, and the ability to extend your laptop screen to multiple monitors is incredibly useful. The weight can be a bit of a challenge, but the kickstand makes it manageable.

> 3 dayShort version: this does work on macOS over a single cable, it uses Silicon Motions Instant View (its basically display output over USB, and is similar to DisplayLink) so it does need a driver for it to work. I was able to test this with a 2016 Macbook Pro 15 and a 2016 Dell XPS 13; this thing is too large for 13in laptops, but 14in should be okay. It includes a microSD card reader that out of the box comes with a small microSD card that contains the Instant View drivers. The display themselves are okay for 1080p60hz, just keep in mind the angles I have in the picture is as far as they will go towards the keyboard. I wouldnt call this thing portable however, it takes some time to deploy and honestly just get a larger (16in 4k) portable monitor and save yourself some money while youre at it Long version: I got this since I was expecting to be more on-the-go for work, and I always need extra screen space. I was aware that it would use Silicon Motions Instant View for macOS compatibility over a single cable (macOS doesnt support Displayport MST, which means that it needs software solutions to support 2 displays over a single cable; in this case, Instant View is a competing implementation similar to how DisplayLink works, which is display output over USB). The build quality is good. The whole thing comes with a faux leather wrap, and the plastic itself despite feeling a bit light, doesnt feel too flimsy with a pretty durable ratchet to adjust width. This thing is too big for a 13in laptop like the 2016 Dell XPS 13 I tested this with, but for 14in laptops and larger it should have no problems; the 2016 15in Macbook Pro has no problems. Theres a small stand that leans on the back because otherwise any laptop (except something like a super heavy mobile workstation/gaming laptop) would tip over from the weight. The viewing angles actually work okay, but doesnt lean together towards the keyboard too much. In terms of practical use, it aint good. Its very cumbersome to deploy, and youre only getting 2 small 1080p displays. In comparison, you can just get a 15in or 16in portable monitor and just have an easier time; this is actually what I was using before (I have a 16in 16:10 4k portable monitor), and in fact it is far more easier to use and is far more portable than this thing. Maybe say if youre always going to different places but sit at a single spot in the place for an extended period of time, maybe this will work, because setting it up and then packing it up is quite the task. It does come with 2 USB-C to USB-C (one end is 90-degree angled) cable, a USB-C to USB-A cable, and a 5V3A charger; this is for if youre connecting to a laptop over the USB-A cable, or if the USB-C port on the host laptop doesnt provide enough power for the 2 displays. Because this uses Instant View, it doesnt count towards a GPUs supported number of displays count. So say if youre connecting this to a M1 Macbook Air thats normally limited to a single display output, you can use this, and then still have that 1 display output for something else. This also means that for Macbooks with dGPUs, because the display output is over USB instead of DisplayPort, it doesnt activate the dGPU (which might have some power savings advantages despite having to run the Instant View drivers) The price of this is quite an issue. At the time of this review, its $600 with a $100 discount. A 16in 4k monitor can be had for around $200 to $250; you can get 2 of those for the price of this thing. Its not very easy to pack/unpack, its quite heavy, the size is awkward to carry around in a backpack (its very square). However by using Instant View, you can use this in macOS with a single cable. If I remember these dual-monitor laptop things are subject to some lawsuits on the original manufacturer that created the design, so to some extent I also doubt the legitimacy of this product. At the end of the day, it has its flaws, but it does work. Just keep in mind of your use case, a portable monitor is probably 99% of the time a superior solution and a better use for your money.

> 3 dayThis extended screen setup offers a convenient way to extend your screen real estate, but there are a few things to consider. Firstly, its worth noting that this monitor is quite heavy, making it more suitable for production or gaming setups rather than casual portability. The added weight puts strain on the laptop screen, and while the manufacturer includes a foldable leg for support, there is still a risk of potential damage to the screen or hinge when moving the computer. To address this, I personally built a dedicated stand to hold the monitor at a secure angle. In terms of image quality, it is average overall. It tends to look best when paired with a 13 screen with a similar resolution. I tested it with my 15 HP gaming laptop, and the stark contrast in display quality between the high-resolution main screen and the two lower-quality external screens felt a bit odd. One issue I encountered is related to connectivity. Since it connects via USB-C, I experienced some challenges with SWRE (Simple Windows Runtime Editor) in adjusting windows across multiple screens, as well as with NVIDIA surround. Im not a Windows expert, so there might be solutions available that Im not aware of. However, its important to note these compatibility limitations. I have a point of criticism regarding the included supporting software. Instead of providing a direct download link, the software comes on a mini SD card that mounts when connecting to the computer. This unexpected approach could be improved for user convenience. Another aspect I didnt appreciate is the bright white logo printed prominently on both screens. Its not only visually displeasing but also distracting. I mitigated this issue by covering the logo with black Gaffa tape. Taking all these factors into account, I would rate the riple Portable Monitor for Laptop four stars. It would greatly benefit from a better design to support the screen, the inclusion of an HDMI input, and the repositioning of the plugs away from the bottom. However, despite these limitations, its truly remarkable to have the convenience of three portable screens that can be easily transported in a case. I hope this review provides valuable insights to help you make an informed decision

> 3 dayThe 13.3 1080P FHD dual screen is incredibly clear and bright, making extended work sessions much more bearable. The USB-A/Type-C laptop attachable monitor extender for Mac/Windows support M1/M2 chip MacBook monitor for 13.3 to 16.5 laptops is also an awesome feature, allowing me to move my laptop around without having to unplug the monitor. Setup was relatively easy and the adjustable angle and size helps me find the perfect viewing angle. Im very impressed with this product
