MAGICRAVEN Portable Monitor 14 inch 2160 * 1440P IPS Laptop Monitor, Dual USB C HDMI Second Computer Screen, Gaming Display with 2 Speakers, Travel Monitor for Laptop PS4/5 PC Phone Xbox Switch

I decided to try this portable monitor because my larger secondary screen was taking up too much space on my desk, and I couldn’t be happier with the change. This 14-inch monitor is compact, functional, and delivers impressive image quality for its size. Design and Portability The slim, lightweight design is perfect for smaller setups like mine. It fits seamlessly into my workspace without adding clutter, and I can easily tuck it away when I’m not using it. The build feels sturdy, and the included stand is stable and adjustable for different viewing angles. Display Quality The 2160x1440P resolution is fantastic, providing sharp visuals and vibrant colors. The IPS panel ensures excellent viewing angles, so I don’t have to sit directly in front of the screen to get a clear view. It’s ideal for tasks like writing, gaming, or even streaming videos. The first screen I received did have a few dead pixels, but customer support was so helpful and sent me a replacement very quickly! Connectivity and Features With dual USB-C ports and an HDMI input, setting it up was incredibly easy. It worked flawlessly with my desktop PC without needing extra software. The USB-C functionality is especially convenient since it handles both power and video through a single cable. Why It Works for Me Switching to this portable monitor was a game-changer for my setup. It provides all the functionality of a larger secondary screen without monopolizing my desk space. Plus, its compact size makes it easy to move between rooms or even pack for travel. Pros - Slim and compact, perfect for small desk setups - Sharp 2160x1440P resolution with vibrant colors - Easy plug-and-play setup with dual USB-C and HDMI ports - Lightweight and portable Cons - The smaller screen size may not suit those needing large displays for detailed work - Limited audio output (if built-in speakers are important to you) Final Thoughts If you’re tired of bulky monitors taking over your desk, this portable 14-inch monitor is an excellent alternative. It offers great performance, sleek design, and versatility without sacrificing too much desk space. I highly recommend it for anyone who needs a secondary screen that’s both functional and compact.

The screen looks good, operates as expected. It has some advantages over many similar models, in that it comes with the cables you need if you aren't planning on using it via the latest generation of USB C ports out of a laptop. It has a USB wall wart, like a phone charger, and comes with a mini HDMI to HDMI cable. Even more impressive to me, the mini HDMI cable fits snugly. So much so that I don't hate it the way I've hated every other mini HDMI cable and port I've ever used. This size and resolution make for good visuals with no perceived pixelation unless the image was meant to be pixelated. Color looks good enough out of the box. All in all, a nice little display, once you scale text to something that doesn't strain the eyes. That said, I have found it more fatiguing than may larger displays, but that's probably the reason one usually doesn't go back to a smaller display once you've upgraded.

UPDATE: I would like to say that as soon as I wrote my review for the 14" MagicRaven 2K monitor that the manufacture reached out to me to make things right by sending me a replacement at NO CHARGE! I have travelled now 2x with my new monitor and have been wrapping that thing up in underwear and sweatshirts and it has traveled without issue. It is fragile but it is also a super thin monitor so I guess that is to be expected. Thank you MagicRaven for making things right and I do suggest this as it is VERY affordable and all you need to do is be careful with it. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I spent a month reviewing portable displays for my pending work trip to London before I finally pulled the trigger on the 14" MAGICRAVEN 2K Portable Monitor. I work from home and have a setup with 2 large monitors on swing arms and was not able/willing to go back to a single laptop display, so I decided to invest in portable monitor. Upon receiving my monitor, I was more than excited. The monitor was easier than expected to setup. All I did was plug in the single USB-C cable that was provided and the monitor powered on, had a GREAT picture, and responded amazingly. I was hesitant to make the purchase because there were reviews stating that the monitor was fragile. I have a Briggs & Riley @Work backpack that has a ton of padding and spent 20 years traveling the world for work and never cracked a laptop screen so I figured I would be good. You can see in my photos the amount of padding and that I also packed it with the flat part of the screen against the flat part of my laptop. Good. Right? Not so much. As soon as I get to hotel in London, I tested the monitor, and it worked fine. I packed it up again for a short trip on the Underground to my client’s office with much less stuff in my backpack this time. I get to my meeting and pull out my monitor and it was CRACKED!!! (See Photo) I babied this thing for a 5000 mile journey and on a short trip with no explanation the thing seemingly cracked out of thin air. As much as I loved it the day, I pulled it out of the box I am unfortunately going to return this and look for another monitor. More than likely I will spend more on a Lenovo portable monitor as the reviews of those say how durable they are.

I recently acquired the MAGICRAVEN 2K Portable Monitor, and I must say it has completely changed how I work and play on the go. Firstly, the 14-inch 3:2 IPS display is stunning. The 2K resolution delivers crisp and vibrant visuals, whether I'm browsing the web, editing photos, or watching videos. The aspect ratio is perfect for productivity tasks, providing ample screen real estate without feeling cramped. The portability of this monitor is a standout feature. It's incredibly lightweight and slim, making it easy to slip into my laptop bag or backpack. Setup is a breeze with dual USB-C and HDMI connectivity options, allowing seamless connections to my laptop, phone, or gaming consoles like PS4/5, Xbox, and Switch. This versatility means I can use it for work presentations, gaming sessions, or simply extend my desktop workspace wherever I am. The built-in speakers are surprisingly good for a portable monitor of this size. They deliver clear audio without distortion, enhancing my multimedia experience without the need for external speakers. I also appreciate the sturdy build quality and thoughtful design details, such as the adjustable kickstand that allows for multiple viewing angles. It feels robust enough to withstand travel and frequent use, which is important for a portable device. Overall, the MAGICRAVEN 2K Portable Monitor has exceeded my expectations in terms of performance, portability, and versatility. Whether you're a professional needing an extra screen on the go or a gamer looking to enhance your setup, this monitor ticks all the boxes. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a high-quality portable display solution!

I would like to say that I have been really impressed with the quality and beautiful display of this monitor. It is crystal clear, vibrant colors, and it weights not much more than my phone! The only thing better than this product is the amazing customer service I received from MagicRaven. After several months of daily and heavy use, I had a problem and I reached out to see how they could help me. They responded within a couple of hours and without any further questions told me they were going to send me a replacement at NO CHARGE! Thank you MagicRaven for letting me enjoy this amazing portable monitor even longer and providing my with a customer service experience so awesome that is hard to find these days! So please, make your self a favor and get this display today! You wouldn't be disappointed and if anything happens, you would be greatly satisfied by the support from the people at MagicRaven.

This monitor is a beauty. High resolution, great aspect ratio, nice brightness. I have a Surface Pro 7 and the monitor works perfectly with the USB C cable connection- nothing else needed. Easily configured as an extended display in Windows settings. Great value for the price I paid.

Excellent picture, good controls, multiple connector cables included, nice case with built-in stand, works great with my Windows laptop using extend screen and other modes. Very light and thin. The unique 3:2 screen size ratio works well for me, providing extra height when displaying documents on this screen, next to my laptop. Fantastic value at well below $100 on Amazon.

It died after a couple of month of use. Sent in a video of it to their support and got a new one after a week. Review: Pro - Clear and bright, lightweight, great portable monitor Cons - Gloss screen, attracts dust through static
