Awesome!

This little guy is awesome! So big while still being light and portable for easy travel. The case is nice and easy to use and keeps the screen safe. I live that it's USBC c for connection and charging.

Easy to use.

This Plugable Portable display is just that, plugable. I used the included cord to connect the display to my laptop and it worked right away. I like that it includes an attached travel cover that can also be used as a stand. The size of the display seems just right and it is light weight while still being high quality.

Great for remote workers!

The Plugable Portable Travel Monitor is an excellent choice for on-the-go professionals and digital nomads. Its lightweight, slim design makes it easy to carry in a laptop bag, while the 15.6-inch full HD display provides sharp visuals and vibrant colors. The monitor connects via a single USB-C cable, simplifying the setup process and reducing clutter. It's ideal for expanding screen space when working remotely, making multitasking much more efficient. While the brightness could be a bit higher for outdoor use, the overall performance and portability make it a great travel companion.

The Plugable 15.6" USB-C Portable Monitor is versatile, sturdy, and easy to use.

The Plugable 15.6" USB-C Portable Monitor is a fantastic buy if you're looking for something portable, sturdy, and easy to set up. The build quality is great-it's lightweight but feels solid enough for travel, and the 1080p display is sharp and clear, perfect for work, gaming, or streaming on the go. What really makes it versatile is the 100W pass-through charging, which lets you power your laptop while using the monitor. Plus, it works with all kinds of devices, from laptops to gaming consoles like the Nintendo Switch, so you're not limited to just one use as long as you carry the included USB-C cable with you. It even comes with a protective cover that doubles as a stand, making it easy to prop up anywhere. The only small downside is that the screen is a fingerprint magnet, so keep a microfiber cloth nearby if smudges bother you. Overall, it's a great value for what you get-portability, solid build, and flexibility for different devices. Definitely worth considering if you need a portable second screen!

confusing

I am baffled by this product. I had high hopes based on the influenster stock photo, but upon arrival I am confused and disappointed. The product had a very simple instruction pamphlet that just stated what the screen can be used for. There were no directions on how to set up the screen, turn it on, if it needs charged, etc. It had 1 cord with it, but I have no clue if this cord is to charge it or is what's used to connect to it. I tried plugging my phone and laptop into it using the cord provided and my own USB-C cords and pressing the buttons on the tablet but nothing happened. I could only get the brightness display gauge to show up on the screen. I do like that the screen feels very durable. It is not a glass screen so it would survive being dropped. I also like that it comes in a fold up case that can be used to stand the screen up. Overall, I wish this product would include more paper directions in the box on how to initially use it and some FAQs.

What a Nice Addition!

This monitor comes with a usb type-c male to usb type-c male cord that I used to plug the monitor into my laptop. I've never had a dual monitor set up and it's so nice! I like to play games on my laptop and this will come in handy for that! It's so slim and light; and the stand folds up to become a screen protector when you're not using it! It has three buttons on the side, two for lowering and making the screen brighter, and one for switching the "temperature" of the color! There's five modes for the temperature: cool, normal, warm, sRGB, and user. The screen quality is decent, not as good as my laptop but still nice.
