Amazing on the go and at home!
I initially bought this as a portable second screen for working on the go, but I have also been using it as a third monitor at my home office. It works great! It’s about the same size as my laptop, so super easy to travel with. Text and color are crystal clear! The power cord is just a little short for some situations, but nothing an extension cord can’t fix.
