Review: Sleek, crisp & so portable! - I absolutely love this portable 4K monitor. I originally bought it for traveling, but I’ve ended up using it just as much at home in my second office — it’s a total game changer. The 4K screen quality is beautiful and crisp, and I’m really glad I invested in the higher resolution. I love how easy it is to adjust the brightness on the side, and the one-cord setup makes it incredibly simple and clutter-free. It’s just as thin as my MacBook and fits perfectly in my laptop case, making it ideal for travel. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a high-quality, portable second screen.
Review: Very Good Portable Monitor - Got this as a second monitor for when I'm traveling. I'm surprised at how good it is for the money (~$76 when I bought it and at time of review). It includes all cables and a cover. It's literally plug and play - hook up the USB C from my laptop to the USB C on the monitor and voila! I have a second monitor. I'm using it with a Windows laptop so setting up the second monitor (location, which is primary, etc.) is simple: right-click on the desktop, select Display Settings. My laptop monitor is OLED so I knew that there was no way a non-OLED monitor would match it in either color or HDR. Out of the box, the colors are a bit off, but I was happy to find that this monitor it has fairly comprehensive adjustment settings. and I managed get it to be pretty good. If I wasn't comparing to an OLED screen, it would be perfect. I was recently at a cafe where someone else had a different portable monitor, one that is available here on desertcart for over $100. Neither of us could tell the difference in quality or image. Its a good monitor. Last note, I don't use the monitor for gaming so can't comment on that. The speakers work fine. They are fairly weak but I never intended to use them since my laptop speakers are very good. Overall, a very good monitor. The only thing I wish it had was a better case for transporting it. While it has a cover, a more robust case that would protect the screen from damage is almost required if you intend on putting this in your backpack, etc. I'd give this 4-4.5 stars, but for the price compared to other offerings on desertcart, it's a 5 star product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What size is the vesa mount?**
A: 100mm x 100mm

**Q: Could this be used on an airplane to watch movies (plugged into your phone) and could 2 sets of earphones plug into it?**
A: You question had me curious, so I experimented.  Short answer is yes... with some qualifiers (basically the right connectors and power).

I did a simple test and was able to connect with my phone with a USB-C to USB-C cable and then get audio out with headphones connected to the USB-C OTG or to the 3.5mm jack (but not both at the same time).

It only has one USB-c connector that will work with a headset and only one 3.5mm headphone jack.  As far as I know, the audio will go to one of the connectors (USB-C "OTG", or 3.5mm jack, but not both at the same time.  So, "could 2 sets of earphones plug into it?"  Not literally.  But you could, for example, plug a 3.5mm headphone "Y" cable into the 3.5mm jack and then plug in 2 headphones that have 3.5mm plugs. 

The other qualifier is that you need to make sure you have enough power to keep both your phone and the display running.  It does power up just from my Samsung 20 FE (simple USB-C to USB-C cable), but not sure how long the battery would last.  You likely need external power for both the screen and your phone (at least the screen, then your phone should last at least as long as it usually does watching movies on battery).  You would need to plugin the screen to a separate source of power (which it possible with a second, lower, USB-C connector on the left side).  To also power your phone and still be able to have a video output to the screen, you can use something like this (note it has HDMI out and power in [PD Charging] to power the phone)... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07S8MKJ6Q?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 
With an adapter like above, the cables that come with it, and one more USB-C cable for power to the hub (that is passed to the phone), it all works and stays powered on (assuming you have a power source to plug both the hub/phone USB-C power cable and the screen power cable into with sufficient power output).

I have a nice pic of the example setup but Amazon is stupid and does not have a way to post a pic as part of the answer (but will let you post a vid, go figure).  Hopefully you get the idea from my description.

**Q: Is there a different mount you recommend for this monitor?

I saw 4 holes in the back and am thinking about paying a small mount?**
A: Hello friend
Thank you for your question!
Yes, the holes on the back of the portable monitor can be used to mount to a stand, such as VESA.
However, we do not recommend mounting.
Because our small portable monitors are mainly built to be portable, thin and light, the screws cannot be fully screwed into the back of the monitor.
As a result, the stability of the monitor's connection to the stand may not be fully guaranteed, and if you need to mount it then you need to be careful to prevent the monitor from falling off.
Hope this helps

**Q: Can this connect via Bluetooth?**
A: No Bluetooth connection, just HDMI or C
