Amazing on the go and at home!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Nice for the price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a nice portable laptop for the price. I wish the power cord was longer to make it easier to plug in while using it with my laptop. I currently have to sit close to an outlet or us an extension cord. Manual says if you use the mini HDMI cable then your laptop will power the monitor but my laptop doesn't have a mini HDMI port.

Great monitor with a couple small drawbacks.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I finally gave in and bought this as an extended display, and man am I so glad I did. It has significantly improved my workflow. Only downsides are that if my Macbook Pro isn't plugged into a power source, the Acer monitor dims to about half brightness. Changing the brightness on the monitor doesn't do anything to fix it (although the brightness settings do work when my Macbook is plugged in). It's not a huge deal, since I usually have my Macbook plugged in anyway, but it is slightly annoying. I imagine if you're the type of person who wants to be able to take this thing on the go and you don't have access to an outlet for your computer, it could be a problem. It also takes quite a while to connect to the Macbook - it makes my laptop screen go dark for about 10 seconds and takes a while to boot up on the monitor. Again, not a huge deal, but a bit annoying. All in all, when it's plugged in and going, it works great. Solid monitor for the price.

Works greatwith XBOXseries S
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor has both HDMI and EDP inputs. The pael is very good quality. There is a small speaker for sound (do not expect a full sound system). For the price this is a good deal. I have used it with anXBzoX series S. Works perfectly. You need a USB cable A to C to provide power to the monitor from one of the XBOX USB ports.

Acer Portable Monitor
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great for minimizing space and working on the go and travel. Not as user friendly when trying to set up the clarity and brightness of display.

Comes with HDMI to Mini HDMI cable
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It wasn't clear to me that this would include the required HDMI-to-Mini-HDMI. The Best Buy site even suggests an insignia cable as an add-on. So I bought it, then returned it. This comes with quite a few cables and accessories, including USB-C to USB-C, and HDMI to Mini HDMI.

Love this Portable Monitor
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just needed a portable monitor to use with my lap top while on the road for work. This made it easy to hook up and use without having to read difficult instructions. And it fits perfect in my computer bag. Love the ability to have an extra screen and the slim cover fits perfect. I'm loving how it makes my travel time easy to work from with my lap top and an extra screen!!! Definitely 5 stars!!!

Great second screen
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted to have another screen for productivity, and this was marked down to $100, so I thought it looked like a solid deal. Out of the box, my only complaint is that it's a little dark, but the settings were easy to adjust brighter. The folding makes for easy storage.
