Pros and cons
Pros
- A matte IPS display and listed Full HD resolution provide a practical second-screen format for documents, browsing and video.
- The kickstand supports orientation changes and tilt adjustment without needing a separate stand.
- The stated weight of 0.61 Kilograms is suited to carrying alongside a laptop.
- The supplied contents list includes mini-HDMI and USB-C cables for common wired connection and power arrangements.
Cons
- The listed 60 Hz refresh rate and 20 Milliseconds response time are modest specifications for buyers prioritising fast-paced gaming.
- The monitor has no battery, touchscreen, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, so it requires a wired connection and an external power source as needed.
