ARZOPAPortable Monitor, 15.6'' 1080P FHD Laptop Monitor USB C HDMI Computer Display HDR Eye Care External Screen w/Smart Cover for Mac Phone Xbox Switch PS5-S1 Table

UPDATE 11/04/2023:After buying this monitor in April and using it HEAVILY - like, for 5+ hours every single day, carrying it with me everywhere from home to school to work - the monitor still works fantastic! I love this thing! It actually outlived the laptop I bought to use it with, lol (that laptop's hinge eventually broke).Given that my laptop died and this monitor didn't, I actually used this monitor along with the Dex mode on my Samsung phone as the ONLY "computer" I had access to either at work or at home for a little over a month. That solution was good enough for me to at least complete some basic research during that time, as well as completely re-writing my resume to an entirely new format, so the monitor saved me a month of lost productivity!My only recommendation is to buy a better high-end USB-C to USB-C cable if you plan to use this monitor extensively. I still use the USB-C cable included with this monitor to charge my phone - it's powerful enough to activate my Samsung's "Super Fast Charging Mode." But I now prefer to use this cable (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Y874X96/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1) to connect my monitor to my PC, as it's a little thicker and less likely to be jostled.Nonetheless, I can't complain at all - my $1400 smartphone came with an even worse, and much shorter, USB-C cable, so I think 3rd-party USB cables are the way to go for all electronics now days. ORIGINAL REVIEW FOLLOWS:I love this little monitor! It's VERY light (lighter than my S23 Ultra!), and the case it comes in is cute, protective, feels good to hold (with a leather texture for better grip), and most importantly, does a good job holding up the screen when it's in use in landscape mode. I've never had the screen fall down on its own. The case also comes off fairly easily if you want to do that intentionally (just push it to the side so the magnets lose their grip).The screen is much thinner and lighter than I was expecting, which is great, because it's so thin it actually fits right inside my laptop bag along with my laptop, as you can see in the second image I uploaded. On the left is my laptop, on the right is the monitor.It's actually basically the exact same size as my HP Envy 360 15.6" screen, so it's quick and easy to look back and forth between the monitors. All I need to unfold a complete workstation on the go is the included USB-C cable - that cable both powers the monitor and conveys the image signal. Importantly, however, do NOT lose this cable, as no other USB-C cable I own, even my nicer ones, seems to be able to replicate the trick of carrying the power and image simultaneously. I marked the cable with some orange duct tape so I don't mistake it for my other USB-C to C cables.What's really cool is this monitor can actually work with my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, immediately putting the phone into Dex mode, allowing me to basically replicate a workstation experience entirely off of my phone! Make sure if you do this, however, to plug a USB-C power cable into the second USB-C port of the monitor, as this will actually then begin to send power to your phone, charging it; otherwise, I tested it with Ampere, and running the monitor unpowered from your phone increases my S23 Ultra's power consumption from -320 mAh, meaning my phone should theoretically last for 15 hours on a full charge, to about 1000 mAh, meaning it would die in a little under 5 hours running the external monitor. When I connect my Samsung fast charger (which charges my S23 at a blistering 4,500-5,200 mAh) to the monitor when the monitor is plugged into my phone's USB-C port, my phone charges at a very fast 2,400 mAh - not as good as my special-made fast charger, but actually much, much faster than most cheap store-brand chargers, which I was honestly not expecting! So that's cool!The sound on this monitor is louder than my phone, but quieter than my laptop; nonetheless, it's not a portable speaker, if you care about audio get a Bluetooth speaker or headphones. The monitor is easily bright enough to read comfortably in a room where I'm getting direct sunlight, but I'm not sure how it would be trying to read it in, like, direct sunlight standing in a field or something unusual like that. (Then again, basically every electronic device I've owned, especially my Switch, has eaten dirt in that exact scenario).When I first got the monitor, I actually messed with the color settings considerably, then eventually realized I'd actually made it worse and returned it to the defaults, which are fairly true!I don't think I'd want to use this monitor as a dedicated monitor for trying to, like, play a graphics-intensive first-person shooter or the like, but for casual gaming, video streaming, and my intended use, as an office computer, it's great! With the addition of only a few extra ounces to my laptop bag, I now have a second monitor I can use to play Udemy videos fullscreen while I have an IDE or note-taking software open full screen on my laptop, which has increased my productivity considerably. And if I don't need to run an IDE and think I'll just be doing basic MS Office tasks for the day, I can ditch my laptop entirely and use the AZORPA monitor along with my Samsung Galaxy S23U and a bluetooth mouse + keyboard (or a 2.4ghz mouse/keyboard plugged into a USB hub) as my entire computer workstation!All in all, I honestly never even knew portable monitors had gotten to be this good, this cheap. If I had, I'd have bought one earlier! I'm honestly considering getting a second, so I can go full 1980s Hackerman in a Starbucks with a triple-screen setup, lol.All in all, very satisfied with my purchase, at least after 1 month of daily usage and carrying the screen around in a laptop bag!

I've had this monitor for over a year now and wanted to wait to see how it would perform over a period of time - and I'm not disappointed.I work from home and use my work laptop and since my company blocks several websites and email sites I keep my 43" HDTV that's connected to my personal PC only connected to is and for over four years did all my work on just the 16" laptop while others who work from home connect theirs to 24" monitors.I don't have the room on my desk for all that and my large HDTV monitor.After living with managing contracts and spreadsheets on just my laptop I knew there had to be something out there for laptop users.I searched and found out these monitors have been around for a while.There was a sale going on and this one, while not on sale, was larger and less expensive than the same mfg smaller model so I purchased it.After a year of use it is exceptional. I love have two monitors and it fits on my desktop and since it's powered by the laptop extra cables are minimized.It has a speaker so for everything but phone calls (VOIP) I use the built-in speaker to listen to any work videos etc which is more convenient than putting on my headset that's used for phone calls.It has several picture adjustments and I've only tweaked a few (there's one that makes the screen easier on the eye strain).So if you have a laptop and want another screen to have more 'room' to work - I highly recommend this one.My laptop has the HDMI output and a USB input on the right-side so it closely connects to this monitor to keep them really close to each other.

I don’t usually leave reviews, but I had to for this one. The ARZOPA 15.6” 1080P Portable Monitor has been a game changer for me.Right out of the box, it was easy to set up — just one USB-C cable and it worked instantly with my laptop. The screen quality is excellent: sharp, clear, and vibrant. Whether I’m working remotely, streaming videos, or just using it as a second monitor, it performs flawlessly.It’s super lightweight and slim, which makes it easy to pack in my laptop bag. I’ve taken it to coffee shops, used it on flights, and even plugged it into my Nintendo Switch for gaming on the go. The built-in stand is sturdy and makes positioning the screen a breeze.This monitor has seriously improved my productivity and flexibility. For the price, it’s an amazing value. I honestly didn’t expect it to be this good, but it exceeded all my expectations.Highly recommend — if you’re thinking about it, just get it!
