Handy monitor to use when you’re on the move. It’s come in handy several time so far when I had to work remotely and needed and needed an extra monitor. Worked as soon as I plugged it in. The price of the monitor and carrying case seemed pretty reasonable. There may be brighter monitors but works great for what I needed it for.

The AOC portable monitor is really simple to use and travel with. It comes with a cheap but adequate foam sleeve. I work from home writing web content. I love being able to cut my editing time in half while on the road by using this as a dual monitor system. It can display vertically or horizontal with the stand. A couple things I don’t like, however, is that the screen isn’t very bright and the resolution feels really dated. It is a bit tricky at first to use. The window you’re dragging over to the monitor has to be really really small in order for it to send over. But once getting the hang of it, this monitor has been perfect for my needs.

For it's purpose, this is good. I needed something easily powered and portable to support my work laptop. This is it.
The resolution isn't what you're used to if you have a good monitor on your desk, but it's adequate. I will be using it extensively for travel.
Greatest thing is no external power. It powers from your USB port. I've used it with 2 different laptops, and didn't need special drivers for either one. Definitely plug and play for me.

Great size, good quality, easy to set up, great price and nice sleeve included to store it in. Easy to grab and fit into a laptop bag/back pack. Makes it very convenient to have dual monitors especially if you are traveling for work.

I use this monitor to provide personal captioning to a hard of hearing student. Beautiful screen. Easy setup. Very light. Nice sleeve to protect it. Only drawback is that it’s not wireless.

This is great it you need a simple screen for your basic needs. I wish it was touch screen but it does it job. It's a simple setup, just plug and use. It's light to carry. It's a little bigger than expected, but I'm not complaining. It's bigger than expected so don't think you going to just going to throw it in a bag and go. It does come with it's own sleeve.

Most people have a second monitor at their desk but lack that functionality when traveling. This is a great option. Inexpensive, quality resolution and lightweight at a low price. I take this with me whenever I travel.

Love the size, fits perfect in back pack with laptop. For a 2nd screen this works great. It is light weight and don’t need multiple cords to run it. It is literally plug and play. Works great on the go.

Purchased a little over a month ago and I could not be happier. I read other reviews about connection issues so I was hesitant, but still gave it a shot and this this is awesome. I don’t use touch screen at all for work and they don’t advertise well enough how lightweight it is. I absolutely love it and will be using this while I travel full time and work from the road. No better deal out there. I just wish they made a USB type C version cause that’s what most of my cords are, but that does not dampen the usefulness of the screen. My work laptop has Type A with power pass through so I’ve had absolutely no issues with the product. Love the sleeve too. Thank you AOC!

Love it. Easy. Great. Way better than my last one which had an odd folding stand. This stand super easy pullout and still super light, and such a great price. Totally recommend.

I travel alot for my job and having a portable monitor to use with my laptop makes my job alot easier. My old monitor (another brand) stopped working and I needed one quickly before I traveled the following week. I found this monitor on Best Buys website and made the purchase that afternoon. It fits easily in my backpack and is not to heavy. The monitor connects to my laptop via USB with no software or drivers required. Good purchase for the price.

I bought this to replace an old monitor that was ready to retire. I work from home often and travel for work so a second monitor is necessary for me. I like that it sits lower and is flush with my laptop. I did not download the drive. Instead I choose to extend the display so I could drag the item I needed to the second monitor. It works exactly as I need and is so easy to use. You literally just plug it in and it is ready to use. The fact that it is portable is a bonus.

The AOC E1659FWU 15.6" USB-3.0 Portable LED HD Monitor is a compact and lightweight display solution that offers portability and convenience for users on the go. Here, I'll provide an in-depth review of this portable monitor, covering its design, display quality, connectivity options, and overall performance.
Design:
The AOC E1659FWU boasts a sleek and minimalist design, featuring a slim profile and a thin bezel that maximizes the screen-to-body ratio. The monitor's 15.6-inch display is housed in a durable plastic enclosure, which feels sturdy and well-built. Additionally, its compact size and lightweight design make it highly portable, allowing users to easily carry it in a laptop bag or backpack.
Display Quality:
With a resolution of 1366x768 pixels, the E1659FWU provides a satisfactory HD viewing experience. The LED backlighting technology ensures bright and vibrant colors, while the matte anti-glare coating helps to reduce reflections and eye strain. The display offers decent viewing angles, although some minor color shifting may occur when viewed from extreme angles. Overall, the display quality is suitable for everyday tasks such as web browsing, document editing, and multimedia consumption.
Connectivity and Portability:
The E1659FWU is designed to be compatible with a wide range of devices, thanks to its USB 3.0 connectivity. The monitor's USB-powered feature eliminates the need for an external power source, simplifying the setup process and enhancing portability. It also means that you can connect the monitor to your laptop or PC without requiring an additional power outlet. Furthermore, the monitor's USB 3.0 port acts as both the power source and the data connection, eliminating the need for extra cables.
Performance:
In terms of performance, the AOC E1659FWU delivers satisfactory results for general computing tasks. It offers a responsive and lag-free experience for everyday applications, including web browsing, document editing, and multimedia playback. However, it's important to note that this monitor is not intended for gaming or graphics-intensive work, as its specifications and refresh rate are not optimized for those purposes.
Portability-wise, the E1659FWU shines. Its lightweight design and slim form factor make it an excellent companion for business travelers, students, or anyone who needs an extra display on the go. It's easy to set up and dismantle, making it ideal for presentations, dual-monitor setups, or simply extending your workspace when needed.

I am very happy with this monitor. I wanted something the same size as my laptop and didn't take up too much space. This is perfect. However, the instructions to get it working are HORRIBLE. They are five years out of date. They give you a CD full of out of date drivers. What you have to do is go to Display Link's website to get teh Windows 10 version, install, change your display setting to Expand and then plug it in. Instead, I spent way to long trying to make sense of what I was sent. But at least it is working fine now. Sometimes I have to unplug and plug back in to get it on but not usually.

Took a little research to find the download for a MacBook. Once I found that and loaded, the monitor has worked great. I use it when I travel and when I want to work someone other than my office while at home. Just connect it to my PC and use.
