SideTrak Solo Pro 15.8" Portable Monitor for Laptop | FHD 1080P LED IPS Dual Display w/Anti-Glare Screen, USB & Mini HDMI, Laptop Monitor Extender for Mac, PC, Chrome, HDR & Speakers

I got this screen to have an extra display when working off my laptop for you. I had first ordered a different version by the same company. However, I was not a fan of how small the screen was. I defiantly underestimated the scale of a 12-inch screen. So, I went and returned that one and then ordered this one. It was defiantly the better choice. The biggest down fall is the touch screen. Now the touch screen dose work well. It is just that being that it is not a Windows Surface or an Apple Tablet the computer gets confused some time. Those previously mentioned tablets are program to accept things like stylist pens and understand that when your pam in on the screen to ignore it and pay attention to the stylist. Now I do not know if this is an add on or a software update, they can make to the display. Like maybe if there is an option to select to only acknowledge a stylist pen and ignore other commands. However, if you do not plan to use a stylist pen then yes, the touch screen works perfectly.

It really is thin and durable. The picture quality was crystal clear. There is some challenges to connect it to PC, can't use the C to C option, had to do the HDMI for visual and C to C cable for power connection. Otherwise a great option for a second monitor

I was really looking forward to using these SideTrak touchscreen monitors to support my online training needs. Pricing was good, delivery was timely, packaging was neat – but I was not prepared for the technical difficulties and the lack of customer service support. Experienced no issues with the initial setup as side monitors using Dell laptop. Only have one USB-C port, so on one monitor, I am using the USB-C to USB-C cable (left), and a USB-C to USB-A PLUS Mini HDMI to HDMI cable for the other monitor (right). Installation instructions were easy to follow for the initial setup as side monitors. All aspects of these extended monitors are excellent (clarity, brightness, etc.) EXCEPT for the touch capability and audio... which is why I spent the extra money! When only one monitor is plugged in, the touchscreen works, but only after closing the large-tab Windows search icon. However, when plugging in a second monitor, BOTH monitors lose the touchscreen functionality, and all touchscreen activity reverts back to the main monitor. For example, when performing a screen highlight on the left or right monitor using a stylus, you can see the same area being highlighted on the pc monitor, not on either the left/right touchscreen monitor. In addition, when both monitors are attached, all audio playing from a video on one monitor plays to speakers on the opposite monitor (not to the PC). Nowhere (websites, support, etc.) does it indicate that only one Sidetrack will work at a time. There are only 3 troubleshooting questions answered on their website, none address these technical issues. I've verified and met technical requirements, tried various cabling combinations, read up on everything I could find on the Q&A, etc.. There must be an easy fix, but I can’t seem to get a hold of SideTrak customer support. There is no Chat functionality for technical support. I’ve called 9 times during their normal business hours – after waiting 5 minutes each, receive a “call back during business hours” message. Submitted a form online to call me – and the response is that they are having technical issues with their phone system… still waiting for someone, anyone, to call me back. Do I really want to keep a product when not one person in technical support has a working phone that can return a call to resolve a technical issue during normal business hours? I’m rating this a “1” not based on the product itself, but on its Product Support (or lack thereof).

Very crisp image - no additional power cord - single cord for power and display. The touchscreen is responsive, and the ability to mirror or multi-screen is great. Highly recommend for the finance professional.

UPDATE: 2 years owning monitor, stopped working, will not connect. While beautiful, this is too unreliable for the $350 spent on it. Great screen, extraordinarily useful and attractive. Slim space that it needs to take up on a desk. Only complaint is the C plug and cable. Cable does not fit securely into the plug on the touchscreen or my laptop. So I can accidentally knock it out. Overall it doesn’t hurt the functionally but Sidetrak should be using a better cable.

This was a game changer for me! Plugged it into my MacBook Pro and it worked seamlessly out of the box. Super easy to use, great display. The description said the touchscreen does not work with MacBook Pro. Oddly, it does on mine. I am running Catalina. I did not expect that feature to work.

I use this monitor holder daily and it is excellent. I highly recommend.

I needed this monitor for traveling to do my tax business on two screens. I like the touch screen and the multi usb options to ensure all computers can connect to this device. The only issue I had was not being able to successfully link it to my iPhone. They do have a good customer support number and I’ll call to find out how it works.
