  • Rated 4 out of 5 stars

    Nice light weight travel monitor.

    This is a nice monitor. Easy to transport with my 16 inch gaming laptop. It's easy to set up, plug in and go. It auto shuts off or on when I shut down or start my laptop. It has bright vibrant colors. The kickstand/easel is great. I wish it had a side or vertical option only because I have limited horizontal space sometimes. I would have preferred a screen cover for when I transport it or when its not in use but I can use a cardboard piece for now. Overall for the price it's a great extra light weight monitor.

    Extremely helpful as a Laptop second screen.

    This is a great product to provide a second screen for my surface tablet. It fits easily in my tablet back and does not require a significant amount of room considering the screen size.

    Almost ideal, almost

    I bought this to use with a tall gooseneck stand while laying in bed because I have neck issues which make sitting in a chair for any length of time intolerable. I also use the monitor with my Rog Ally X when traveling etc. The monitor itself is just barely light enough that the stand I bought can support it. The build seems to be of decent quality. Picture quality is solid and the color is pretty good right out of the box while also offering plenty of customization options in the settings. The only reason this isn't a five star monitor is because of light bleed on the sides of the monitor. Perhaps I just got a dud but it hasn't bothered me enough to exchange it, although I just might if only to confirm whether it's a problem with all of the monitors or just mine. Since I bought this on sale I'd say it's a good value for the money and Acer has rarely let me down in the monitor arena.
