    I like everything about this monitor. It is thin and light but sturdy thanks to the steel body. The wide folding stand’s magnetic top flap allows you to slide it up and down to adjust the screen angle, while the magnetic bottom flap holds the lower bezel steady. Opened flat, the stand covers screen, and the whole thing slips into a padded sleeve. This is just right for occasional road trips, but I also use the stand every day in my home office. This is not something that will crash to the floor if bumped, it does have threaded holes for a VESA monitor mount. The other excellent feature is the one-button control. located on the side, next to the single USB-C socket for video and power. One click wakes the monitor. After that, one click pops up a row of symbols for brightness, contrast, overdrive, blue light suppression and language. Click to the control you want; wait until it flashes, then an adjustment panel pops up; press and hold the button to adjust. A short wait makes the popups go away. This is so much better than fumbling with tiny controls or having to use some awful app. Finally, the picture. Sharp 1080p video at 50 or 60 Hz. Good color and contrast. Moderately bright, uniform over the whole screen at a distance of 15 inches,

    The unit itself is extremely lightweight. The image is clear and bright. The holder and case an added bonus, and makes storage safe. In my instance, our computer was older, so we could not make it work. We only had an HDMI port open. Even with an A to C connector as well as splitters, we could not make it work on the particular laptop we wanted it to work on, as the monitor only has a USB 3.0 C port. We also loved the size, same exact size as our laptop. I ended up giving it to my son, who uses it for business and loves it. It is portable and it has great resolution and color. Just double check the ports available on your laptop.

    Lightweight. Nicely packaged. Includes a slipcase. Connected to my Mac laptop smoothly. Easy plug and play. If you work in graphics, this will likely not meet your standards for colors and sharpness.

    This AOC monitor was a great solution for me. I’m used to using two screens for my accounting system at work, at this allowed me to have a similar setup remotely. I chose this model because it had the same specs as the screen on my laptop (15”, uhd resolution). It made viewing easier on my eyes looking between the screens. The positives for this is the screen is crisp, light, and I love that it only needs the usb-c cable for data and power. Only negative is the screen brightness could be stronger, but overall this was a great purchase.

    This is a great product if you travel for work. It thin enough to fit in my bad and does the job. I wish the resolution was a bit better, but still good quality.

    It was just okay. Bought the Asus before and that was much better, however, very delicate since it tipped forward once and the screen broke. Both use the magnetic fold stand, which doesn’t feel very secure. The Asus display quality was better - I work with a lot of spreadsheets- and the AOC display was fuzzy- pixelated - something. Also display adjustments didn’t do much I have the Acer with built in stand and I like it much better.

    I purchased the ASUS monitor prior to this and once I had this side-by-side with the ASUS, I knew this was the best product. The stand is much more secure which is a big plus since I use it in the portrait orientation for forms that I have to complete. It just looks better too.

    Plug-and-play heaven! I unpacked the monitor and cable, plugged it in to my Dell laptop and I was good to go. No setup, drivers, etc. Just had to change my display settings to extend to the second monitor and I was back to work.

    Works great as a secondary monitor for work from home, while staying mobile. Colors aren't fantastic for media consumption but for spreadsheets or documents it's perfect. Blue light settings do help reduce eyestrain.

    This was a nice idea but if you have a Windows 10 laptop, the software is not compatible with AOC drivers. I don't have disc player on laptop so I needed to download drivers, instruction manual etc. from AOC website. There were all .zip files. I didn't have the proper software to open and utilized the files once unzipped. I spent 40 minutes with AOC support- they were helpful - trying to access the drives. Finally he admitted that AOC has been having problems with customers who have Windows 10 operating systems. The software is not compatible with Windows 10.

    The monitor doesn't support auto-rotation as advertised. AOC support confirmed they don't have drivers for Windows 10 release 1809 or later. The only option given to me was to return the product to BestBuy. There are no plans to produce the fix.
