Perfect for those who also want a second monitor outdoors.

Lightweight and thin
nice design
Clear picture
Pricey

(This is about the MB16AH version). At home I could not do without at least a second monitor. When I was at school or work with my laptop, I often noticed the need for a second monitor like I am used to at home. This portable screen is ideal for that. It's lightweight, accessories are included, and as soon as you connect the USB-C cable, your second screen starts up immediately.

You probably won't use the built-in speakers that much, they don't sound that great. A refresh rate of 60Hz isn't super smooth either, but that's no problem for most tasks.

As a tip, I would like to give you a first glance through the built-in screen settings. There the color reproduction was set for me as I would rather not have it, namely on a fairly dark mode.

Hugely portable

Very portable
Image via USB-C and via HDMI
No battery that can deteriorate over time
The screen may not be bright enough for outdoor use

Very portable solution to add a second screen to your laptop on location. I specifically chose a model with HDMI input to have the widest possible options, and I definitely recommend that. The USB-C port can also receive an image, but then your source device must also be able to provide 1.5A of power in addition to the image, and that is not always possible. It's also a shame that it's about a micro-HDMI port, because those cables and adapter pieces are very fragile and I'm afraid that one piece will break. The screen can be used in portrait and landscape mode, and can be stored in the sleeve that also functions as a stand. The screen then simply leans against the stand, and is therefore not attached or magnetically connected to the sleeve. So if you want to move the screen, you have to be careful. Furthermore, it is very stable in the standard, I do not see it falling over quickly. I chose a model without a built-in battery because I always have a power bank with me or can feed it via the laptop, or have a socket nearby. This way there is no battery that can deteriorate and swell over time because I don't need it. A built-in battery would occasionally be useful to be able to use the screen with my smartphone for Samsung Dex, but that requires a dongle setup that provides the screen with power because my smartphone cannot supply 1.5A.

perfect mobile second screen

works immediately without installation via usb-C on my macbook pro
the screw thread at the back for mounting on camera brackets
protective cover that can also be used as a stand

Very useful at a competitive price. Image quality is a bit less - I wouldn't do photo/video editing with it - but it's a good buy to show as an extra screen for info.
