Packard Bell 15.6" Portable FHD 1080P Monitor – Ultra-Slim IPS Display with USB-C & HDMI, Smart Cover & Speakers, HDR, Plug & Play – Ideal External Monitor for Laptop, PC, Phone, and Mac

It's a great HD monitor with a very good picture and fits right in my laptop case with the laptop.

Screen itself is exactly what was expected, smaller secondary screen. My problem was with the case/support. It is not very stable. Can't tell you how many times it collapsed with the slightest bump. And yes, I read all of the enclosed material and have it set up properly... just not stable...

Good for the price

This is not only a nice little second screen, it is also a great way to mirror your smart phone or ipad. Once I figured out the correct slot to use, the screen mirrored instantly. The only thing to be aware of that if you have an older iphone or ipad with a lightening port or a device with a micro USBC you'll need an adopter because this only comes with the standard USBC connectors. Also be aware that while the screen can draw power from the device it is connected to, if that device is running on battery, it will drain it at a pretty good clip, so you will probably want to plug either the device or the monitor into a power source. One nifty idea I had was to cradle my smartphone in one those wireless controllers and than mirror the phone display to this screen to create my own little portable gaming machine.

Pros: -The setup is very easy and I was ready to go in less than a minute. I've hooked up to a few laptops and home computers and everything works great. On some computers, I did have to connect an additional cable, the USB-C, to provide power for the portable monitor to power up. There were no issues running this on computers with Windows or Linux. -Great and sturdy built quality. I love the overall feel and build of the unit. It's lightweight, but feels good in hand to carry around. The stand is easily removable and also serves it's purposes as a screen protector to make it easy to travel with. -Beautiful display and colors. I've played video games, watched videos, and overall web browsing and the colors are nice and vibrant. The brightness is really good and can be adjusted in the settings menu of the monitor. There are a few different picture settings: standard, text, movie, and game. I can even adjust the low blue light setting, which is useful for me to turn on a few hours to reduce my blue light exposure at night. -There is Freesync support in the settings. A really nice feature to have when I'm playing casual video games. I haven't noticed screen tearing or ghosting on screen while I'm playing. -The screen is anti-glare which is a really nice aesthetic as it gives a matte black look when the screen is off. Con: -I don't like the settings button which is used to open and navigate through the in-screen menu. It's a little sharp to the touch and in order to select something in the settings menu, the button needs to be pushed down all the way to register the click. This is the only non-premium feel of the entire unit. -The magnetic cover, which also serves as a stand, does an okay job of keeping the monitor upright. It relies on the thin indentations of the cover to keep the monitor in place. This works great on flat surfaces, but slightly tilted working spaces can be difficult to keep it in place. Overall, this is a fantastic monitor with great value. It's easy to setup, feels premium, and the picture is great for 1080p. I've used this portable monitor to play casual games and it has worked very well. The portability of this monitor, with the cover, makes it easy to carry this unit around to expand my desktop workspace from my laptop.

Im amazed how far technology has come in recent years. This is a really cool setup. I currently use this as my 2nd monitor for my old Apple laptop. I have a small battery bank that powers this monitor (it only draws about 5w of power) and I connect through HDMI. The computer instantly recognizes it and extends the desktop to that 2nd screen without any prompting. The spare screen comes with a cover that doubles as a kickstand. The resolution is obviously not as high as my native laptop screen (which has a Retina display). Scrolling through the menus is easy to navigate. There is a “wheel” style button on the side that allows you to scroll through the menu options. The Screen weighs a little under 2.5lbs and is super thin (at only 3/8” thick). When connecting to my work laptop, I like how this is also capable of connecting through USB-C only. If you use this method of connecting to a laptop, it makes it very “clean” there is only 1 cable that performs the role for both Power and Audio/Video. Overall, I think this is a really nice and improved the performance and capability of my current laptop. Its cheaper than buying an permanent screen and it also allows me to travel with an extra screen since this easily fits into my laptop bag. The build quality feels great.

This is exactly what I wanted. Easy to transport and great resolution. I appreciate that is comes with a cover and cables.

This is a good external monitor and works right out of the box. It comes with different cables to suit your need. It has a very slim profile so it offers excellent portability. It feels quite sturdy and has a nice weight to it. The screen is also decent and has adequate colors. It does have the option to draw power directly from my laptop but it drains the battery quickly, so I still have to plug my laptop in when I have to work for an extended time.
