Love the idea of this product so I ordered one. There is a gap in the regular monitor market for 16 by 10 monitors under 20 inches. There is literal nothing available... especially in high definition like this is. This is going to make a great vertical monitor for me to pair with a 4k 27". (usual monitors in vertical positions are too high but this will be perfect). Then when I travel overseas to see family... I can bring a mini workstation with me. Dual use :). So glad this exists... I might even order another one.

[@FIREWOLFTECH]

That's another great use case ! Thanks for sharing and I know you'll like and appreciate the 16:10 2K resolution 🔥

[@eliah_B]

Ik bought it as a second monitor for m'y desktop to stand vertically Next to my horizontal curved 27 inch screen. Ik will Also connect my Xiaomi 6 pad to it with a keyboard.... Let's see, it's ordered and on the way

[@drishalballaney6590]

@@FIREWOLFTECH btw I wonder have you tried this monitor with a samsung device for dex to see if it would work?

[@FIREWOLFTECH]

@@drishalballaney6590 I haven't tried it with a samsung device , but I did try it with an iPhone 15 Pro Max and it worked

It looks good, but one drawback is the backlight bleeding, as your copy is completely seen during the Diablo sample gameplay.

[@Knox420]

well thats every monitor, other then oled tbh.. also this is super cheap compared to the other similar

[@kj908studio]

yo Thanks for reviewing this I love your setup! I am working on a similar setup with my gaming laptop and currently have a 4 year old G-story 15.6inch 1080p 60hz portable monitor its touch screen which is cool but its Definity time to upgrade!

[@FIREWOLFTECH]

You’re welcome and thanks for the feedback 🙏🏽 Touch screen is a cool feature to have on a portable monitor, how often did you use it ? I figure for me I would rarely ever use it. And I agree, a monitor like this one would be a huge upgrade !

[@kj908studio]

@FireWolfTech no problem 😊. Yes its amazing for use with a dex phone or tablet that's why I originally bought it and for occasional switch screen times I was a otr truck driver. But ever since covid I've been a line cook and bought a gaming laptop and rarely use it anymore. It's my 5th screen lol so it's the last screen I upgraded and I have one more monitor before I upgrade that one.

[@jccnguyen]

4:58 the downside is that you can't scale it up to 1440x900 hidpi. I have one that is 17in, same resolution. Using default resolution makes text too small. On Windows I can scale it to 125% which is great.

[@hvasya]

I have portable screen with same resolution & Mac os, sold it with this reason - all too big or too small.

[@JediMasterNater]

I bought the monitor but the HDR does not work on it when connected to Xbox series X, is that an issue with this monitor in general?

[@Rekt-ui7pq]

I have this same question? I was planning to buy the same monitor and I hear a lot of people say it doesn't get the full HDR or you can't change the settings?

[@cvzone]

Same on the Steam Deck. It says the Display does not support HDR. On Windows and MacOS it's working fine. Also my Xbox Series S says "no HDR10 supported for Games and Movies". On PS5 HDR is detected, but it looks not so good, I prefer SDR here.

[@antstockley]

Hdr only works on xbox series when playing in 4k

Does the power supply for the monitor run directly from your gaming PC via a USB C cable?😊

[@PHOBIAx57x]

Yes you can, as long as the port outputs power

[@Bludawg27]

Could I plug my phone into this for camping an watching KZbin?

If your phone supports usb-c display mode or with the use of adapters, you’ll be able to connect to it as long as you have an external power supply powering the monitor

[@MacAoi]

[@magnetoforce704]

The website shows the monitor case is attached to the monitor, but when you opened the box, there was no monitor case.

On this monitor, what is the rated latency per ms?

[@mrman6035]

3

[@userwithzaza]

Latency is terrible. I bought this laptop to play call of duty warzone. So i use call of duty geforce now on my s24 ultra and already with controller there is latency and with this monitor it is way horrible.

[@samurai96420]

​@@userwithzazaits not the monitor's latency you are using a cloud gaming service to play the game it gives you a latency between 10 to 20 ms depending on you internet connection the monitor itself doesn't have too much latency it's like 3ms which is decent for playing games

[@CHRIS_NYC]

Didn't realize I picked up the newsoul version of this which has more nits. I'm about to return for the uperfect. What do you think?

[@DJIsher1]

Is the Newsoul monitor decent? I see the same one on Amazon, but don’t wanna pre-emptively buy it before buying the Uperfect. I can’t find this Uperfect monitor on Amazon, only the Newsoul. I’d much rather buy from Amazon in case I need to return it. Just seeing if there are any noticeable differences.

[@Benedictus899]

It clearly says at 02:52 that the monitor DOES NOT run at 144Hz while you say that it does.

[@samurai96420]

It does run on 144hz but not with hdmi you need to use type c for display output in order to get to 144hz

[@Benedictus899]

@@samurai96420 Yeah I did some research and apparently you need a specific cable which might or might not work, and there's no concrete information about which cable actually works. Either way, this is not what he said in the video. He said that he got 144 Hz by using HDMI which is impossible. Almost all the "reviews" for this monitor seem to be ads and not actual reviews. Do you own this monitor? Were you successful in connecting it to a desktop PC via USB C cable?

[@shareshareshare7902]

How bright is the screen?

[@Kris_413]

Can it hold in a bag like a laptop would?

[@walnutsz]

Is that 120hz or 144hz? It looks like 120hz when you connects to your pc

[@FIREWOLFTECH]

144Hz on PC and Mac, and 120Hz Max when you connect a PS5 or Series X

[@user-pc7ww7kz2i]

I ordered this 1 week ago, I am looking to pair this with my Xbox Series S. I’m wondering if the monitor would turn on if I only plug it into the console

[@FIREWOLFTECH]

It would definitely fit in a backpack, but it also depends on how your backpack is, because it might only fit in the main area. I'm not sure about the size of airplane tables, they may vary by airline, but should still be able to use it even if the tray was smaller. As for the Pokemon card, I purchased it already authenticated via eBay. There are many grading companies that you could use, the one I have is graded by PSA.

[@vegaf2011]

@@FIREWOLFTECH thanks, yea I ended up getting a backpack for now so I can carry it. Got myself a very large one just incase haha.
