Review: I badly needed a secondary display to take with me when I travel or work from a cafe for my 14'' MBP M4. I wanted something 1) inexpensive 2) lightweight 3) decent image quality. This display matches all of those and then some. The 2560x1600 resolution is amazing for when you need more "real estate" and don't mind small text. I run it at 1680x1050 and it's the sweet spot for a secondary code window. For watching full screen videos, the full rez is amazing, though and switching is a breeze. Power draw is very low/excellent. It drains my MBP battery about 30% faster than normal, but the trade off is more than worth it. You can also plug the screen itself to a power source and it will in fact charge (albeit very slowly) the MBP. Image quality is great, but specially great when you consider this is a $100-ish 16'' screen. If you work in the visual/creative arts it may not be up to your standards in terms of color rendition, but for every one else this travel monitor is a heck of a deal.
Review: The screen is crisp, bright, and looks great. It matches the resolution of my company-issued ThinkPad & it's great to have more screen real estate. When I first connected it via USB-C, Windows only recognized it as 1920x1080. I used a different port on my laptop & it then worked at 2.5K, then when I switched back that one was working fine too. I blame Windows haha. The case is pretty flimsy & the magnets that are supposed to hold it to the back of the screen aren't strong enough. So getting it set up when traveling is a bit fussy. Once it's in place it works great.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What size is the vesa mount?**
A: 100mm x 100mm

**Q: Could this be used on an airplane to watch movies (plugged into your phone) and could 2 sets of earphones plug into it?**
A: You question had me curious, so I experimented.  Short answer is yes... with some qualifiers (basically the right connectors and power).

I did a simple test and was able to connect with my phone with a USB-C to USB-C cable and then get audio out with headphones connected to the USB-C OTG or to the 3.5mm jack (but not both at the same time).

It only has one USB-c connector that will work with a headset and only one 3.5mm headphone jack.  As far as I know, the audio will go to one of the connectors (USB-C "OTG", or 3.5mm jack, but not both at the same time.  So, "could 2 sets of earphones plug into it?"  Not literally.  But you could, for example, plug a 3.5mm headphone "Y" cable into the 3.5mm jack and then plug in 2 headphones that have 3.5mm plugs. 

The other qualifier is that you need to make sure you have enough power to keep both your phone and the display running.  It does power up just from my Samsung 20 FE (simple USB-C to USB-C cable), but not sure how long the battery would last.  You likely need external power for both the screen and your phone (at least the screen, then your phone should last at least as long as it usually does watching movies on battery).  You would need to plugin the screen to a separate source of power (which it possible with a second, lower, USB-C connector on the left side).  To also power your phone and still be able to have a video output to the screen, you can use something like this (note it has HDMI out and power in [PD Charging] to power the phone)... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07S8MKJ6Q?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 
With an adapter like above, the cables that come with it, and one more USB-C cable for power to the hub (that is passed to the phone), it all works and stays powered on (assuming you have a power source to plug both the hub/phone USB-C power cable and the screen power cable into with sufficient power output).

I have a nice pic of the example setup but Amazon is stupid and does not have a way to post a pic as part of the answer (but will let you post a vid, go figure).  Hopefully you get the idea from my description.

**Q: Is there a different mount you recommend for this monitor?

I saw 4 holes in the back and am thinking about paying a small mount?**
A: Hello friend
Thank you for your question!
Yes, the holes on the back of the portable monitor can be used to mount to a stand, such as VESA.
However, we do not recommend mounting.
Because our small portable monitors are mainly built to be portable, thin and light, the screws cannot be fully screwed into the back of the monitor.
As a result, the stability of the monitor's connection to the stand may not be fully guaranteed, and if you need to mount it then you need to be careful to prevent the monitor from falling off.
Hope this helps

**Q: Can this connect via Bluetooth?**
A: No Bluetooth connection, just HDMI or C

*by G***S on 14 March 2023*

EDIT: After posting my original review, the seller reached out to me to offer support. They let me know that the monitor requires a USB C cable rated for USB 3.1. After acquiring a couple of these, I found that the monitor works just fine with them. Make sure that the cable states 3.1 or 3.2. I ordered one that says it supports 4K Video but ended up being 2.0 and it didn't work. Original Review: ordered for a work trip. Arrived quickly. Plugged the included USB-C Cable into my Surface Laptop and the monitor and it worked fine. Got to the hotel and pulled everything out. realized I didn't pack the included cable, but no problem, right? I have plenty of high quality (Anker) USB C cables in my laptop bag. Nope, big problem, none of my cables are passing video to the monitor!. Hmm... Maybe I'm not getting enough power - plugged in USB C to the laptop and another USB c to power. still no signal. surrendered - went to best buy, got a usb c port replicator with an HDMI port and an HDMI to mini-HDMI cable. got the monitor working with a whole lot more than the one cable I thought I needed! I did buy another USB c to USB c Cable and that one didn't work either. IN all fairness, all of the required cables are included with the monitor, I just didn't pack them. lesson learned! I will try the included cable again when I get home. I don't see any reason that none of the USB C cables I have tried would work and that concerns me, because cables are not forever, and I don't know what I would need to replace the original with.
