This is my honest review from a real person. I've had my Trio Max for about one week. So far, I'm impressed. I had issues at first with setting it up (my own errors, not the company), but after a couple of tries, it's all good. I was placing the magnets wrong...lol! But overall, my review and use of the product is great. It works for me!
This is an awesome concept to have. I’ve had it for two months and traveled once with it. Downside the magnates and clamps to hold it all together are not lasting and the screens are loosing its sturdiness. For this to be a long term piece of equipment, I question it’s quality. I’m feeling a bit disappointed because I have no solution on how to make it hold better for longevity.
I used this product every day and it worked wonderfully. It made my mobile job so much easier. The downfall I had with this screen is after about 30 days the weight of it binded up the hinge on my computer and ended up cracking my computer screen and breaking my laptop. This is a great buy but would be much better if it was not so heavy. Bought a new laptop and am afraid to use it now...
- the pivot point is made of plastic and was already broken after 1 month. - the magnet comes off the trio max. -the packing tape on the magnetic strips cannot withstand the heat of the laptop screen
Given the price, I expected more quality. product purchased 08/2021
OK Cons first: Sorry guys, I really wanted to love these monitors but I just can't justify the price point when the triple monitor set up is held together by these flimsy plastic clamps. My whole setup keeps coming apart whenever I extend them. Usually they fall off the magnets as well. I am not part of your R&D department so I don't know who tested these and developed the clamping system but there has GOT to be a better way to accomplish this mission. The whole setup just sags terribly and feels like I am playing a game of "Jenga" the entire time I am working remotely. I keep worrying that someone will bump my table in Starbucks and the whole setup come crashing down off the magnets. Pros: Excellent build for the monitors itself. Slide covers the monitor for scratch protection. I downloaded the driver software and they hooked up flawlessly. The right angle cables are an awesome thought. Shipping was laser fast and packaging was "Apple-esc"? (Can I say that?) All in all I was in love with everything but the actual deployment of the product. Sadly at this time I am going to return the monitors and keep shopping for a triple monitor set up that will be secure enough to not fall off my laptop during a normal day of leeching off a Starbucks WiFi signal or a barstool at Applebees. I may revisit later if the clamping design changes but for now this product is going back.
