Our take
At $39.99, this portable monitor is very budget-friendly, but you get what you pay for. The 60 Hz refresh rate and 250 cd/m² brightness are fine for basic tasks, but for gaming or design work, I'd prefer more. The matte screen reduces glare, which is nice. The USB-C and USB 3.0 connectivity make it easy to hook up to modern laptops. However, the 16-inch size is a bit small for a primary display. It's a decent secondary screen, but don't expect high performance.
