    Delicate and needs better brightness

    Okay, so the good: The price - excellent The screen size - excellent The cover/stand - best I've used Ease of use - plugged it into a 2019 13 inch MacBook Pro and 2024 16 inch MacBook Pro, flawless. The bad: The buttons - I accidentally put it in my laptop bag with the buttons facing down, guess what, the power button broke and is now pushed permanently in, unusable. While this was my fault, my wife and daughter's monitors, the buttons are on the front so I am going to ding AOC for this design. As an add, I gently carried this around in my laptop bag, so the button breaking means it's delicate/fragile. Brightness - It's very dim, even when you turn it up to 100%. Flickering - randomly, the screen started to behave bizarrely, unplug, plug back in, fixed. It could be the drivers on my MacBook, only happened on the 2019 model. However, worth mentioning.

    Reliable, Lightweight, and Perfect for Travel or H

    I bought this AOC travel monitor for use with my HP Pavilion laptop during ham radio field events, camping, and portable operating — and it’s become a permanent part of my go-kit. Pros: • Lightweight and ultra-portable • Crisp, bright 15.6” display • Easy plug-and-play setup (HDMI to mini-HDMI) • Great as a second screen for laptops on the go • Runs great off a portable power bank or solar generator What I love: The screen is slim, packs easily in my gear bag, and works perfectly outdoors. I use it for digital logging and monitoring ham radio data during Field Day events. Even in daylight, the screen is visible and responsive. The fold-out stand is simple but effective, and the build quality has held up well in real-world conditions. If you’re into travel, portable setups, or just need a reliable second monitor for productivity or hobby use, this AOC is a solid choice. Definitely worth it. Would buy again in a heartbeat.

    Nice Screen, Just get the Right Connectors

    It's a nice Monitor. Love that it comes with a case on it that allows it to stand, and that protects the screen when I put it in my backpack. Resolution is nice. Size is nice. And its very lightweight. It comes with one usb-c to usb-c wire, I believe made for power. **You need to have a mini-hdmi or USB-c cable to connect to your computer. My *one* complaint is that for some reason when I use the USB-C cable to connect from the screen to my laptop, it also sends power to the laptop (since the screen is connected to an outlet). At first, this used to charge my laptop which was great! A 2 in 1. But then I realized it started to just heat up my laptop and actually decrease its power. So I had to get a mini-hdmi to hdmi adapter so I can just connect normally. So no issue anymore.

    Excellent for trips and easy to use, also really great for gaming if using a console as well! Highly recommend. Keep in mind, you must buy an additional micro HDMI adaptor/ cable, which is not included. If it came with a micro HDMI cable/ adaptor, i would give it 5 stars

    The product serves exactly the purpose I wanted it for. I can quickly set up a multi-monitor work station anywhere I want inside or outside. Compared to a MacBook display, the colors are not as true, but that's ok for my needs. I would recommend the product for anyone who has a similar desire for affordable flexibility and portability.

    I love the ease of setting this up ( Even though the salesman duped me and said I had to have an HDMI cord which I didn't). The clarity is very good. I'm thrilled with this purchase.

    Most reviewers are using this AOC monitor wrong.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I’ve been using this AOC portable monitor for three weeks now, and it’s been running non-stop without any issues. It's a Type-C to Type-C DisplayPort Alt monitor, but it’s important to note that just because your laptop has a Type-C port, it doesn’t necessarily mean it will work with this monitor. You need to verify that your laptop supports DisplayPort Alt mode over Type-C. If you understand how Type-C technology works, this monitor performs fantastically. I use it in my car, connected to both my Asus ZenBook and Galaxy S23 Ultra. While the brightness could be better, especially in direct sunlight, for $109, it's hard to complain. For comparison, the Asus ZenScreen is significantly brighter, but it costs around $200. This monitor also features two VESA mounting holes, which is great if you're considering using it as a mini rack monitor, and it includes a mini HDMI port for connecting to more traditional devices. In terms of power consumption, it’s impressively efficient, drawing only around 6-7 watts during use. One pleasant surprise was discovering that the monitor supports HDR, even though it's not listed in the official specifications. With some tweaks in the OSD, I was able to get the picture quality much sharper than the stock AOC profile. As for the speakers, they're relatively quiet. They're slightly louder than the speakers on my Galaxy S23 Ultra but still quieter than my ZenBook’s Harman Kardon audio system. While they’re not the best speakers, they get the job done. Overall, this monitor is a significant upgrade over the previous USB 3.0 AOC portable monitor Best Buy sold.

    Has potential. Speakers lack volume. The screen is nice for an IPS screen. Comes with a usb-c cord. Has two usb-c ports and a mini HDMI port. Is not a power sucker. Saw just a slight drain to my laptop. Is mountable, which is nice if you’re looking for a mini screen. It has its use, it’s cheap enough just wish the speakers had more output. Not a gaming monitor, (not that it’s advertised as one,) but will add productivity to your workstation.

    The exact thing I wanted for school. With more and more information being online instead of on paper I split my touch screen laptop into tablet mode and keep my notes, class videos, and homework questions on this screen and write on the touch screen below. Makes life easier on the go and I 100% recommend it to any engineering student. It's simple plug it in and that's it no external power or setup the screen does have some options and buttons just like a normal monitor and they can be a little confusing to use at first but it is super simple to learn if you want to. The image quality is 1080 it's enough for work and I really do like the case it comes in.

    Super lightweight, excellent display quality, and easy to use on the go. Works perfectly as a second screen for productivity. The touch response is smooth, and setup is a breeze. A game-changer for mobile workstations! Requires a video compatible usbc cable FYI
