> 3 dayIf you need multiple monitors with a portable option these do work nicely. They install quickly and quite securely, you will need to use the kickstand on a MacBook, but my laptop can support the added weight just fine. Setup is quick and the monitors come online quickly they work well mirrored or extended, and so far when disconnected and reconnected my devices remember my settings, I am not sure I would count on that but it seems to be the case the few times I have used them.

> 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 dayI 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 daySetup and connection is very easy and straightforward. They worked right out of the box, and use only one cord. I didn’t even bother reading the instructions, and everything works fine. They are adjustable like any external monitor: brightness, contrast, color, etc.. Personally, I would like them to get a little brighter and provide a bit more contrast than they do, but that’s probably a compromise of the single cord functionality. They do not draw power from anything other than the laptop to which they are connected a USB - C in my application. My old eyes can always use more brightness and contrast from a monitor. Anyone younger than 40 probably won’t have any complaints. They’re a bit pricey, but if you need portability with quick and easy connections, this works well. Unit folds on itself, and stores just like a laptop would - same size/ dimensions.

> 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.

> 3 dayI like it very much, the packaging is very beautiful, of course, the most important thing is that the screen is very easy to use, the pixels are very high-definition, and there is no lag at all

Greater than one weekBoth screens worked beautifully, Im using a chromebook and it worked nice on here. I used it for my work computer which is a Dell Latitude 7410 and it worked well with that as well. Its nice because I need 2 screens to do my job smoothly and thats what this provided. It is adjustable to fit most laptops and theres a little kickstand for it to sit on. It came with all cords needed which are USB-C. It also came with a protective cover/carrying case for it to be nice and portable.

Greater than one weekTook a few minutes to figure it out since Ive never used multiple monitors before, but no problems after that. Folds up to the size of a very thick laptop, and includes a case to protect the screen. Not exactly light at 3.1 lbs, so I dont carry it in my computer bag unless I really think I will need it. Color looks ok and I like it so far.

> 3 dayThis dual monitor add on for laptops is REALLY cool. So far, the only complaint I have is about the weight of the item, but I understand this is mostly due to the battery. I had no troubles hanging it on the back of my precision laptop - Im incredibly thankful that it has a kickstand to keep the monitor up from the extra weight. The battery lasts for a good amount of time - gets even better if the brightness is lowered a bit.

> 3 dayThis is pretty cool for traveling or even working in the living room. The screens are very heavy and you may need to use the kickstand support that comes with it depending on your laptop. Note, there is a micro SD card that it comes with to install software in order to use the monitors. So if you don’t want to install something then do not get this. Overall, it’s convenient and made well just know you’ll have to download software. I hope this was helpful!
