“Really great potable monitor for the price. Has a vesa mount unlike others in the price range. Would be nice to be able to just use USBC for power and display.”
“I got this monitor for gaming primarily and not specifially for RaspPi use. Appears to be well made and is extermely portable, which is what I wanted. However it requires a stable surface to stand upright. Fortunately, the supplied box makes a good base where you need to place the monitor on an uneven surface (as I'm doing).
I also purchased the Rasp Pi USB-C PSU (3A model) as the power lead was longer than the PD version. The monitor appears to consume ~1A with headphones so there is enough power to run an older RaspPi.
I would also suggest people use a Rt-Angled HDMI lead for connecting into the back of the monitor and 3.5mm audio extender lead. This allows for better portability & cable management out from the monitor without needing to unplug leads from the back of the monitor which is awkward.
I installed a Hama 205022 HDMI lead (CPC #: AV30044 £10.44) and a PRO SIGNAL PSG3224-2M generic 3.5mm audio lead (CPC #: AV28366 £1.66) + ~1m of 6mm spiral wrap to keep the 3 cables tidy.
As I've only been using the monitor for a week, I can't give an opinion on its long term performance & reliability, hence 4*'s.”
“I wanted a light monitor that I could quickly and easily set up, and when I saw the black variant became available, I felt this was worth it. I don't own any other similar monitors to compare against - my other monitors are much larger and intended to be static on the desk. However I am generally very impressed and happy with this monitor. The image quality is good and the flick stand works well. The interface recess is a bit fiddly to plug/unplug the USB and HDMI cables. No HDMI cable was supplied, so I decided buy a 90 degree angled HDMI cable and a 2-1 HDMI switch that solved that for me. I saw other monitors advertised that could operate via a single USB-C connection to PC/laptop. That sounds like desirable feature that I will miss, but I can live without it.”
