We looked at the display brightness and the viewing angle width. We considered how many types of connections (USB-C, USB-A, VGA, etc.) the monitors supported and the number of connectivity ports they had. We evaluated the monitors across many aspects, starting with how premium the design and build felt, how lightweight the monitor was, the screen size, and whether it offered full HD or 4K resolution. ![]() We’ve tested various monitors to arrive at the best portable monitors for you. Aim for the brightest you can get while considering that more glowing screens will use up even more battery when powered by your laptop. Most are limited, only topping out at a little over 200 nits. If you plan to use your portable display outside, you want as much of that as humanly possible. The final significant factor is brightness. However, if you’re using a mobile screen away from the mains, they will drain your laptop’s battery pretty fast. Screens without a battery are cheaper and lighter. You can get portable screens both with and without. But more compact models with 11-inch screens are available.īattery or no battery is another critical question. Speaking of bandwidth and resolution, most portable monitors are 15.6-inch panels with a 1080p resolution of 1,920 by 1,080 pixels. That said, some portable monitors support micro HDMI and even VGA. Running over USB-A can also limit resolution and color fidelity due to lower bandwidth. For everything else, it could be more problematic. Just be aware that it will require software and drivers, which could present a problem depending on your device to drive the display.įor most mainstream Windows PCs, that should be fine. That said, many mobile screens also support old-school USB-A connectivity. That’s the most reliable way to connect a portable monitor and ensures both compatibility and plenty of bandwidth for any resolution a portable monitor is likely to offer.

Sometimes I use them for work but if I’m using my laptop for entertainment 100% of the time I’m using the glasses. Convenience, weight, and design are all great. Once it’s at the level of the Samsung Nebula app these things will be the future. The Nebula app is literally in beta for IOS. It’s still not “there” for mass adoption but I honestly feel that’s a software issue. Otherwise this is the crispest, brightest and largest image. In the beginning it may cause minor motion sickness but nothing like what’d you’d experience in VR. The standalone software moves with your view and requires some uncomfortable eye work seeing the corners. While the screen stays fixed in space which reduces motion sickness it’s not as crisp as the standalone. You can see the whole screen but if you want to focus on a detail in the edges you still have to do a little angle change of your head.
