ASUS ZenScreen OLED MQ16AH (review)

[@AWAShowme]

had to return to this video to learn how to maneuver the case! Thanks very much. Keep up the great work.

[@zelafary8685]

Absolutely amazing video! Great presentation of information and you bring out great points from personal experience and thoughts! Great job!

Cool review. Thanks for posting.

They really need to sort out the tripod issue. I can't find a stand for it anywhere.

[@RoryDraper]

wouldn't a standard tripod camera mount work?

[@jbrown-acuity]

Good to see the tripod mount.

[@audaceus]

Wait, is this not touch screen?

[@alifmohd7371]

why oled screen always come with glossy screen? not like others screen which has matte texture

[@fiuploii]

Can I use a media player, to watch movies, connected to this monitor, via mini HDMI ? Thanks!

[@ariskaraiskos8079]

good question, but what about the sound? this screen doesnt have sound output right?

[@fiuploii]

@@ariskaraiskos8079 Right!

[@leatherhidegaming]

Teoh, does the the brightness reset to the default level whenever you switch an input in sRGB mode? I had this issue on the 13-inch version where the brightness kept resetting whenever I switched input for example. I needed to turn the device off and on or enter the brightness menu for the device to realise it was at the wrong level to reset itself.

[@teohontech7141]

I no longer have this display so I can’t test that.

[@Hoopyip]

I bought this monitor recently and am going to return it. The text looks horrible from Mac OS. I tried the different modes and sharpening options, which didn't help much. Using my iPad via Sidecar looks a lot better.

[@ariskaraiskos8079]

i am having the same.... you really didnt find any solution? very dissapointing :(

[@lexville12]

Whats your verdict between this model vs Prism Nomad 13/15in screen?

[@bleepbloop5598]

Would the 270° rotation not work for the orientation with HDMI top facing then?

Can you review the innocn 15A1f portable oled monitor? It often sells for $200.

[@ottomantaiga8118]

Got the one with kickstand

[@HappyHopping11]

Do you just plug the USB port to the USB to AC adapter and leave it plug in while you use the monitor? Or is there a battery inside and only need to be charge up when it's low? If so, then there is a lifespan of these LCD due to the battery life?

[@teohontech7141]

There is no battery. It's powered by USB-C from the computer, but if computer cannot provide enough power an additional cable to power source is needed. Lifespan is many years depending on how many hours you use it a day.

[@HappyHopping11]

@@teohontech7141 first of all, thanks for the reply. So people who doesn't need battery should avoid models such as the MB16AWP then? and that's what I want--no battery. I am not connecting this to a PC. I need this on a Oppo Blu-ray player, so I should be able to connect the USB-C to a USB to AC Adapter that plugs to the wall?

[@teohontech7141]

@@HappyHopping11 The advantage of built-in battery is the display will not drain the battery of portable devices, e.g. laptops, tablets. This will be able to connect to your blu-ray player and if there is enough power you can use one single cable. If there's not enough power to power the display, you will have to connect another cable from display to power.

[@HappyHopping11]

@@teohontech7141 thank you. this is definitely 1 of the candidates that I want. I am just browsing around for 12." to 13.3" size, so far, I only find UPerfect and Asus, if there is noone else, I'll go w/ the Asus

[@jevgenijhuebert-weizenegge7138]

Can you enable hdr10 via monitor settings no matter if signal is hdr or not? It’s very important to me because I search for an Color grading monitor

[@poet8236]

Thanks ... just have issues connecting it via anything thats not (Mini)HDMI. USB-C is simply not working for me, not via PC, not via Windows-PC, not via MacBook, not via iPhone. It always says no source was found when I switch to C1 or C2 althought its connected.

[@snoozeyoulose9416]

Yeah, turns out that this monitor has had a slew of issues.

[@typerightseesight]

[@ddjcz3]

I edit a lot of videos and photos and I've been looking for a portable monitor, but I'm wondering whether to take this video monitor Asus zeensceeen MQ16AH Or take the Asus proart PA148CTV. Could you help me choose?

[@teohontech7141]

Both are good so for me I will probably go with the larger display (priority for me) or cheaper model. I don't have preference for IPS vs OLED.

[@alfie7801]

It would have been wonderful to hear something about connecting a smartphone, iPhone, to this. Since most of us use it 42/7. 🤷🏽‍♀️ maybe, no?

Hi. Is there any option to open service menu to check display time?

[@WMARUoriginal]

$399US for an OLED of this size is not bad, but if it was 4K this would be more enticing.

[@larryerb28]

Just not bright enough for outdoors

[@duyanhnguyen8621]

then it will be double or triple the price

[@overkill845]

Why you want 4k on a such small screen? it is strange

[@overkill845]

instead of 4k 144Hz feature is better, because 60Hz feels so slow in 2022

[@BackusCreativeImaging]

I'd prefer 2560 x 1600 at 60Hz for this screen size for creative work :)

Hello If you have experience with Samsung Dex and touchscreens combo I wanted to ask for advices. I also appreciate answers from any viewer, in case the creator of this channel can't respond to my message. I'm interested in using Samsung Dex with a touchscreen monitor myself. Since I spend time in my home mostly and don't really need an additional battery. To not mske things longer, I have my eyes on two devices. 1. Magedok OLED full HD 13,3. Has touchscreen and no battery. Very similar to Asus Zenscreen OLED 13,3 2. Magedok IPS full HD 14'. Similar to above, just a little bigger and IPS instead of OLED technology. Had no battery as well. My phone is Samsung S20 FE. I tested Samsung Dex using another monitor (no touchscreen) and it works, but drains my battery very fast. So asking about BOTH monitors my questions are as follows: 1. Does plugging the power source (to the monitor) stop phone battery drainage? Does it even slow it? I watched reviews, but all they say is that plugging the monitor I can just boost the brightness. So I'm worried it would still consume my phone's battery even when I plug monitor to separate energy source (even if it doesn't need it). 2. If you aren't sure about the above. What would you recommend me to get additionally? Would buying an USB adapter solve it? I have hope that maybe an active (and not passive) adapter could help, being able to PD power deliver devices using it. Any experience with using it? 3. Most importantly. Can an use touch screen from the MONITOR when connecting monitor to my phone? Does it transfer both signal (image) AND touch or just the image? I want to control my phone through the monitor (its touchscreen), so both signal and touch transfers are needed. 4. If the above is true, how much control it gives. Can I use the monitor just like I used my phone? Meaning, could I play 3D android games and use controls just like on my phone? I play one game especially (Sky Children of the Light), it has two on screen 'sticks' (for moving the character and camera, with two thumbs). So I was wondering if using Samsung Dex I can play it normally just like with my phone - Or if it supports only clicking one area at the time (so I couldn't play normally with both thumbs and move the character/camera at the same time). You can even test the game itself if you got some time as it's free and without adds. I'm worried that it works just like a mouse even with touchscreen and offers zero support for multiple touch points pressed at the same time. For now this is all. Thank you. Best wishes, Jon

Hi,, can it play 4k movies as mp4 or mkv format or can't or lag! Thank you

Interested to try this as second monitor to go underneath my Alienware 34" QD-OLED. Tried mounting my 27" IPS on the side vertically but it was crammed and overwhelming for my space.

I'm looking to do the same, did you end up getting this for that setup?

[@cheesychester9647]

@@jay9404 No. I reorganized and made the vertical 27” fit nicely, just had to shift some things around. My desk isn’t very deep so the portable monitor idea would have limited my table space for my keyboard/writing area.

[@jonintrovertedpotato3866]

With uperfect. I believe you are talking about IPS screens. Meaning different Zenscreen model. Then yes, uperfect has better prices and the screen itself has better contracts ratio. However, when it comes to OLED. I believe uperfect has a far more costly screen? There is only one OLED optical in their shop and it's very costly.
