Oddly enough this is EXACTLY what I've been searching for over the last few weeks. The features most lacking in existing options were full-size HDMI (while still being thin) and a built-in battery. I particularly love the full-size USB hub/host port feature. Shame it doesn't seem to be mentioned at all on their US/UK sites yet (still showing the V2).

[@mikejaques4702]

Hi, you are gonna use it with a phone or other device?

[@XGEOX]

@@mikejaques4702 I do have a Fold 3 with DEX, with which it would be great; but the main thing I want such a device for is as a self-contained portable monitor for various headless devices I have around the home and office. If they become inaccessible over the network (or I need local access), a battery-powered monitor with full-size HDMI and a USB port for a keyboard would be super convenient.

[@davidlane1248]

This is such a swiss army knife monitor I've been wanting a monitor to use for my switch for smash bros at my favorite bar, but having the battery, touch display, USB OTG port and ability to use this with my phone, all completely cut from wall power, is just awesome

[@lavender188]

I remember when @DIY Perks made a portable monitor using an old laptop screen and now we have this. That guy could make a lot of money from his ideas.

[@georginamcewan8846]

Had the V2 for about a year and it was one of my best gadget purchases for a long time. When I did the research it was much better than the Asus equivalent at the time and cheaper.

[@divyeshpatel6400]

I bought a portable touch monitor with CDN $190 (tax included) from amazon. It was from china, 13.3 inch screen with touch support also had 400 nits brightness and HDR. It was cheap. I liked it but later I returned it and bought a second hand windows tablet. Tbh, that monitor was really good with good colors and hdr was good.

As many mentioned: this is exactly what I have been looking for but it's not available anywhere. Which is a super bummer cause I am traveling for work next week and this would have been absolutely perfect for what I need/want.

[@virtuallifeform]

Very nice; I have one of their older models, based on your review, and it's been great used with a Raspberry Pi. I'm glad to see a larger one and the full-sized HDMI ports. I wonder whether this one could power the RPi 4B for any length of time...

Portable monitor market is in shambles here in asia, I can't buy any Strix portable monitors or any ViewSonic VX1755. Only choices are 60hz monitors.

[@muhammadidzhamrusmi5305]

[@shanedesir-parkes]

Don't worry not a single monitor of the pepper job website here is in stock and in amazon its a additional 100 in the uk

[@marcgo13]

Im honestly looking more into the bag you have on the thumbnail

[@HolyRamanRajya]

Blame Nintendo and Sony. They want to keep asians trapped in their consoles and not allow one to hook a phone with these monitors and start gaming at much better settings than ps5 or switch.

[@rikaze]

If you have access to taobao, you might wanna look into buying from there. Monitors are dirt cheap, just make sure to really drill into the reviews

[@hellodarren]

Recon i'll bag one of these when they're in stock, so may uses!

[@TesGon]

This is very nice. Almost what I was looking for. I wish the screen was only 13 inch and OLED. Would be perfect.

[@AyoSoma]

What is the bag/sleeve shown in the thumbnail?

[@toitoitoy]

Again something "BEST!" in video name :D

[@SpazzyJester]

And thank you for the video 😆👍

[@HolyRamanRajya]

Damn this can look great with the nucxi7. Kinda your own Surface pro but with proper x86 windows 11. If only power to the nucxi7(at lowest settings) could be done from this monitor but probably not possible. USB really need to get standardized, some ports support PD, another support charging, another set supports display port.

[@juanpablojono]

I actually found my permanent solution, Lenovo's Yoga Pad Pro or Yoga Tab 13 in the US. SD 870 13" Android 12 tablet with a HDMI input that turns it into a portable monitor! It's been working amazing for me both for work and play because it runs Android too! You should definitely check it out, it's really underrated!

Great Video! I ordered one, but I'm not completely satisfied with the picture quality; everything seems to have dull hue. Did you make and adjustments to the settings for the one you're using? I've tried a bunch of different settings, but the reds just aren't popping like I thought they would.

[@joeygo0999]

Hey there Kevin I’m thinking about buying this monitor, does yours have light bleed!? I bought a Chinese one in Amazon but the light bleed it’s pretty bad and it was way expensive than this one!!! I’m gonna return it tomorrow :/ I know there are not that many options and reviews 😅

[@wvbassassassin]

@@joeygo0999 Hey, I ended up returning the one I purchased, and stayed with the one that I have which is a Cocopar J173FH10F. It has excellent color and brightness, it just lacks the battery that the one reviewed has.

[@Carftymk]

looks awesome but wish you had shown it bein gused with a mini PC. how many hours of light desktop use would that battery power?

[@TiVo2Go]

*Perfect monitor for me but I am holding out for a V4/V5, which I am sure will be coming.* *I say this because I already own 2 portable monitors.* *Blitzwolf & Espresso.* *I know eventually they will drop the 3.5 audio cable, USB3.0 & HDMI to slim this down even more, most of the portable monitors started off with these same connections and then dropped them in newer versions to slim down even more.* *So dropping those connections will allow this monitor to be slimmer, get even more life out of the battery and possibly increase to a 20000mAH.*

[@Naraayanay]

Should I also wait for portable monitor? I don't own one till now?

[@TiVo2Go]

@@Naraayanay Up to you, do the research. KZbin search Nitendo Switch & Portable monitor. Too many brands, many of them are the same tech inside and a 3rd party is just ordering these 3D printed mass produced overseas and slapping their logo on it. I know because one time I ordered a WiMaxit but then when it booted up it said Sibolan and when I complained the seller told me the IT guy forgot to re-program the boot-up logo. Also depends on what you look for. SIZE 13 inch is perfect for me because it fits in a small sling bag and perfect size for plane, bus & train tray tables. FEATURES Some have touch but when you use the Switch there is no touch. Some have 4K but Switch does not output 4K Some have 120hz but Switch doesn't go over 60 And now the new ones are starting to put portable batteries in the monitor. Some are like Apple and removing the HDMI & Audio and only using USBC which allows the monitor to be even slimmer and more efficient. But who knows what the Switch 2 has in store so buying one with all these features may be future proofing.

[@davidlane1248]

Lol the extra connections and full sized HDMI are selling points for a product like this. If battery life is your biggest concern, just velcro a 20,000 mah USB c battery bankto the back of the folio and still keep all the features too Also, why is your entire message in bold? That's obnoxious

Is it really full multitouch for Mac? MacOS does not support it natively, so for instance with a touch monitor you can use touch but you cannot do things like scroll pages with one finger as you would do on a tablet or Windows laptop....Can you do it with this monitor?

I personally have a Egobas Smart portable monitor also with battery. it has all these features (albeit a mini HDMI) and android TV but I sideloaded some alternative app stores so I can install apks that aren't restricted to the Google TV store sadly I don't believe there is a way to add the original play store and I plan to try flashing normal android but I already set up emulators and have been enjoying it as is for now so that will come when I get annoyed by the android TV experience.

[@wHyNoTCaTs-ef4yh]

Hey how's that egobas holding up for you... It's only available on aliexpress and I have bad history with shipping from them so is the product worth it 1 year later?

[@primepikachu5]

@@wHyNoTCaTs-ef4yh it was perfect but it's kind of slow when not using HDMI or USB C. Being an android tv OS made it harder to use things like retroarch and some streaming apps but the hassle wasn't too much I eventually got to play Megaman and Pokemon on it pretty easily. As a third monitor it's been great but I haven't taken good care of it since it's been falling from my desk tablet mount almost every other day. Which means it's incredibly sturdy. But the HDMI and USB C video stopped working recently and I'm not sure why. As a supplemental 3rd monitor it was just what it was, as a tablet it was good enough I watched 4 seasons of power rangers on it, and for gaming obviously bad but I was surprised I could even play up to GBA on it. So overall 8/10 might buy again
