Thanks for doing this video. Had been looking at it on Amazon but it didn't show photos of the VESA holes and I was a bit sceptical. But sure enough there it is in your video! :) Cool feature for sure.
Glad it helped.. yeah, it’s a great feature, and helped me decide that that was the model I should get. Weird how not all of them have a vesa option, since it’s just a few screw holes 😉
I recently bought one of these monitors for my setup and it is very good, very practical and easy to use, the only negative point is the way the product is presented, firstly you don't know if it is original or not because in the box where the the product is sent does not have any logo or any identification of the model of the monitor, but that aside, it is an amazing monitor and with a great cost benefit 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
That's very true; the only way I saw the model number was on the Amazon listing. They could really do with making it more clear, since the specs vary wildly between models.
Do you have to do anything special to enable the speakers on this monitor in Windows? I have four of these (or similar, but two do list the model number as 156A08 in the accompanying booklet), and I just hooked each of them to a Windows 11 laptop via the HDMI port. In all cases, the monitor displays fine, but in the Windows 11 setup, none showed up as an alternate sound device. With my older two (or at least one of them), I think they HAVE showed up as an alternate sound device and it was easy to switch sound to the monitor, possibly when connected to a different laptop. By the way, I know the speakers on the monitors are working, as I can hear sound when I connect to a Raspberry Pi 400 or Orange Pi 800. This isn't the biggest problem, as I primarily bought them for the display, not the sound, but if I play some kind of video on the monitor, it's a bit disorienting when the sound comes out of my laptop.
I've got mine connected via USB C to my Windows 10 HP laptop via a USB C hub that has a HDMI port.. Windows shows it as an output source in the Volume popup named 'HS156PC (NVIDIA High Definition Audio)'. I didn't do anything special to make it do this, and is actually the first time I've even checked it worked. Maybe check in Device Manager? I see mine listed in there.
Hello, sir I hope you are well. I need your advice, I want to buy 17 inch uperfect portable monitor but worried, you know Chinese products quality 😅 can you tell me your review after months of use, Is it worth the money? Or other portable monitors with better quality
I'm still really happy with mine and use it for work at least 3 days a week. It's got one dead pixel which is hard to notice. If I needed another I'd likely buy the same one again. Hope this helps!
Hi, I just got the monitor, and I tried to connect it to my pc by using displayport to usb c cable, but it doesn't work. I have on my pc, HDMI which's connected to my main screen and a displayport, so I got a USB C to DisplayPort Cable, thought it would work with this portable monitor and I can use the screen touch future as well. Is there any way to connect this monitor to displayport on pc? Thank you.
I’m using a Display Port to Hdmi cable and it works great with mine. Haven’t tried DP to USB C tho. Sounds like you’ve got a different model from mine if yours has touch. Have you got a hdmi port on yours, or mini DP?
I got the updated model las month and today i figure out the screen frame is a little bit curve at the bottom it's pretty awkward...the screen it is not the problem just the frame
Hello! I am looking at a similar model but it has a different screen. I was wondering how did you find the model number on your monitor? They dont list them on their website and its a pain to find a specific review about the panel i want.
I think the model for mine was on the eBay listing, but I totally agree.. the model numbers are rarely shown, which makes it extremely difficult to find the one you’re looking for. When I was researching which one to get I had to be really careful to look for the exact spec + make sure the image matched what I was expecting.
I got this Used from eBay and I used my mini fridges usb output port to power it as it actually powers fine, also you can connect the switch directly to the to the type c to type c cable, the one I got only came with a 5v 3A adapter
Did you try plugging the Switch into the monitor without the dock, instead using the USB C output on the Switch? If so, did it work, and can it charge the switch if you have the monitor power adapter plugged in?
Not all smartphones will output to hdmi.. so make sure yours does (maybe try with a tv). As long as it outputs a display over hdmi, it’ll work with this monitor.
Could you please verify whether or not this display supports freesync? I saw in the product page they mentioned it but I doubt they support it. Thank you.

Does it charge your samsung while connected?

6:51 Camera says oh look piece of dust. XD

Interesting. Is that curve on the rear of the case, or on the front bezel? Did it show that in the product images before you bought it? 🤔
The curve is on the front bezel, not on the rear of the case. This detail was not visible in the product images before I bought it.
Bit annoying, but I guess it doesn't get in the way if you're wall mounting it. Shame the images don't properly show you what it'll be like :(
Can you play movies with a flash drive or TF card adapter for the hdmi or usb C input? Does this have media playback?
I'm afraid it's just a monitor with no media playback capabilities.. but you can hook your phone or iPad up to it easily these days
@@Endpoint101 thanks! Do you know of any usb c monitors that have media playback? I think there's one 18.5" that has it

Can anyone confirm if this model has freesync? Is the option there in the settings menu on the monitor?
Not that I’ve found, no.
9:30 can you use a dock or hub between phone and monitor
Yes, I believe you can
I got this Used from eBay and I used my mini fridges usb output port to power it as it actually powers fine, also you can connect the switch directly to the to the type c to type c cable, the one I got only came with a 5v 3A adapter
Ha! Nice! 🙂
@@Endpoint101 it does support switch AC adapter you have to use it if your portable monitor only came with 5v 3amp for it to run smoothly in ACNH
@@Endpoint101 and I realized I got it used from the offical company on ebay as I found out
@@VOLTRONDEFENDER4440 Ah yes, that's where I got mine :) It's still in daily use for my working-from-home setup.
Can you use with just ONE cable to power and transmit image at the same time? I want to buy to use as a second monitor with my MacBook Air M2.
Hi how do you turn the monitor off?
It auto powers off if there’s no signal, or you can just hit the power button on the side.
Can you use with Macbook and use just ONE cable to power and transmit image?
I'm afraid I don't have a Macbook to check that with.
can it draw power from laptop instead?
Great review! Thank you. Simple and straight to the point.
Awesome; glad you found it useful!
Wil this work for any android phone? Would I need any special cables for it work? My cell phones both use the c port to charge. Thanks
Not all phones, no. But a lot should be able to output to hdmi. It likely won’t have the desktop mode that Samsung has.
man, you just super man, thx for this review. U really help me choise my work\switch monitor
You're welcome.. I'm still using mine daily. Haven't had any issues, apart from 1 dead pixel I noticed last week.
Isn't the other port a thunderbolt port?
Did you try plugging the Switch into the monitor without the dock, instead using the USB C output on the Switch? If so, did it work, and can it charge the switch if you have the monitor power adapter plugged in?
I want to use with just ONE cable with my MacBook Air M2. Can I use with just one usb type C to power and transmit image?
That's a really smart screen
Yeah, it’s so flexible in what you can do with it. There are 4K & touch-enabled versions too.. so many options! 🙂
Can I just use one thunderbolt cable from MacBook instead of two cables?
I'm 99% sure you can do that, yes.. the MacBook will power the monitor as well as output the display.
@@Endpoint101 That's what I wanted to know!
Hello is this compatible to any smartphone???
Not all smartphones will output to hdmi.. so make sure yours does (maybe try with a tv). As long as it outputs a display over hdmi, it’ll work with this monitor.
Could you please verify whether or not this display supports freesync? I saw in the product page they mentioned it but I doubt they support it. Thank you.
Yeah, I doubt it too.. but I’ve not got a graphics card with Freesync to be able to check for sure ☹️
Great review thank you
Glad it was helpful! 😊
Has the monitor touch?
Not the model I have, but there are models with touch.
Is the screen orientation can be changed to portrait mode?
Yes, you’d just do that in Windows settings.
Is the screen glossy or matte ?
Matte
