Acer PD193Q 18.5” FHD 1080P Foldable Dual-Screen Portable Monitor | Adaptive-Sync | Auto Pivot, View Vertically or Horizontally | 2Wx2 Speakers | Plug & Play for PCs | 2 x USB Type-C & 1 x Mini HDMI

I've just received this dual monitor and I am so disappointed. First off, there are no instructions, user guide, nothing. Unbelievably, after trying to find a pdf manual online, I could not find one. I can’t believe it, a product that was released this year, and there is no manual online, nor from ACER or from any other site. So I try to understand how it works.Second disappointment: according to the Amazon questions function: Yes, the Acer PD193Q portable monitor can be charged using the USB Type-C cable plugged into a computer. According to the product information, it comes with a USB Type-C cable that supports data transfer, power delivery (15W), and DisplayPort over USB-C connection.Well, guess what. I plugged it into two different laptops and it would not turn on. Sure enough, when I put a second cable to an external power supply, it turned on. One of the reasons because of which I bought this was to be able to use it with only one cable and avoid more cables and chargers.Third disappointment: in the Amazon answers, I had read: “the foldable design with adjustable stand suggests that you may be able to adjust the viewing angle or fold one screen back, implying the potential to use a single screen if desired”. Well, yes and no, because, you see, the upper monitor always stays on, so what’s the point of flopping the upper monitor back and leave it on and consuming energy if you are not seeing it? There is no way to turn it off, which is ridiculous and, to be honest, the “tent” or “folding back” function is basically useless because, honestly, how many people are going to use this to show a presentation to somebody who is in front of you?Fourth disappointment: I flip it and only one of the monitors (the right one) changes to vertical view, the other remains in horizontal but, as it’s flipped 90º, it’s actually turned.Fifth disappointment: this device is SO BAD that if you close both screens together, they are still on and shining unless you remove the power button. Can you believe that? This device doesn’t even have some kind of sensor or button or whatever to turn the device off if it’s completely closed, such as what all laptops do. What’s the point of having two completely closed screens against each other turned on?Returning it immediately. If I were you, I would steer away from this device. No wonder it only has two stars.

Good quality image. I would probably have ranked it much higher but I was disappointed that it wasn’t plug and play AND it took installing a driver (which work ended up not letting me do when I had to replace my computer) and only works with three cords. 1 USBC power, 1 USBC for one screen, and one HDMI for the other screen.Since my IT department won’t let me install the driver I can only use one screen with USBC power and HDMI.Work ended up replacing it with a new one from an unrecognized manufacturer and it worked right out of the box off 1 USBC cord (not at full brightness). Adding a USBC power connection let it go to full brightness.

Lo mejor q compre en este año

**Came back to edit my five stars down to two. For a while, everything was fine, and then the top screen started blinking on and off. At first I thought it went to sleep or something so when it came back on, I thought everything was fine...until it kept doing that. Now it blinks on and off intermittently, yet regularly, throughout the day. For some reason it has to do it twice, and it doesn't matter if I'm in the middle of working - it cuts off. I have no idea where to even start to diagnose the problem AND also, now this screen is more magnified than my other monitors. So, this is disappointing and I'm thinking of returning it, rather than spending the next however many months trying to pay it off. But this was the only one in the style I wanted that had the Amazon payment plan. S.O.B ***Firstly, let me say that the 5 stars are for the monitors ONCE YOU GET THEM WORKING. The setup sucked so much, but I already knew it was going to suck because of the reviews. So, I was able to remain patient throughout the process, knowing that it could be figured out and all of the other monitors like this are well outside of my budget. I did eventually get my computer to recognize the second monitor (which, I realized, was what made everything difficult). I plugged, unplugged, restarted...all of that. And because my computer only has, like, one USB-C and one USB-A I have to use docking stations.I'm not sure what finally did it, since I was also changing around which docking station they were plugged into, but when I finally looked back, I saw that I had an extra drive up besides Windows (C). I think mine said (D)? Either way, I knew it was the screen because, well, it certainly wasn't there before. I double clicked to download the only thing available, watched my screen spasm, panicked that I'd broken my new computer, and then allowed the restart.Again, it didn't come on immediately, but it eventually turned right on. I adjusted my display settings (I had NO idea that you could move the screens around to match your set up, even though it says it right *there*) and I'm now typing this from the top screen. Score!Now, as for the monitor, this is awesome as heck. I'm definitely a fan of the monitor size. But, it's also thin and portable, has a good enough picture and has it's own speakers in the back. I'd also say that it's design saves me a whole lot of room, where I can get two monitors for the space of one.So....setup sucks, description/directions could be much clearer, but it's pretty sweet once you get it up and running.
