VA1653-15.6" Portable 1080p IPS Monitor with USB C and mini-HDMI

Great! Exactly what I was looking for, for my small server room. Light as a feather and thin, works as expected and makes it much easier to connect to the computer I need in a small space.

Really like how portable this monitor is and that it works off the USB C port on my work laptop. The resolution at 1080p means I have to do some scrolling with our internal apps, but it works well and two monitors are still better than one. Some might prefer a higher refresh rate for day to day work and a bit more crispness for text. For the price and specs however I cannot find much to complain about. I also have been using it in Eco mode since it spends a lot of time being powered by the laptop on battery.

I needed a second monitor at work because the old Dell I brought in won't connect to the new Asus all in one computer. I did not get the fancy "touch screen" type, just the regular version. I haven't taken this to work yet, but I've tested it out here at home on both my newer laptop and older-than-dirt PC. It was instantly detected and worked beautifully right from the start on both. I'm a little surprised that the manual it comes with it says nothing about anything. I guess that means it will just turn on when I plug it in (which it did), and will go off when I unplug it (which it also did). But there's apparently a battery in the thing, which means it has to charge somehow. If you're not using the USB C to USB C that comes with it, I'm not sure how you're supposed to charge it. I've gone ahead and purchased a USB C to USB 3.0 so I can plug it into my extended USB ported power bank. I'm hoping that will work as the ports on the work computer are full. Never ending drama. LOL Anyhoo, size is excellent, weight is almost non-existent it's so light. Picture is pretty darned good considering it looks exactly like the picture on my MSI gaming laptop. I'll have to update this review after I get it to work, but for now, I'm loving it!

Excelente monitor to work from home

I had high hopes, tried to connect the device with the cables provided and had no success. I had a variety of usb and stand usb cables. Regardless of what I tried it still did not detect multiple monitors. Went to staples and bought a usb c to hdmi cable $36. Still did not work . Local Best Buy or staples did not have the mini hdmi connection. Packed the unit up for return and notice others had bought the mini hdmi conversion. So I unpacked the monitor again and ordered the mini hdmi conversion. Tried still no success. Packed it up again and shipped it back. Side note the on off button on the back is raised so when put in its protective sleeve it can inadvertently be turn on. Each time I tried it the battery was dead.
