Goal was to use this to increase productivity for work and personal. Been blown away by the quality.I am able to do everything faster than ever and gaming on these are ridiculous. Worth the money to triple my monitor space on my laptop. I bought two to add monitors to the left and the right of my main setup. Hardware installation was simple. USB-C Compatability made the connection instant with my Macbook.Software installation was smooth for even my older laptops using the USB driver.Both displays were installed and working right out of the box.Great purchase you won't regret I even bought the kickstands for variety.
After using Duex 12inch I bought a pair of Trio Max 14inch screens. I love them, once set up there is no mobile productivity substitute.Some differences with 2 big Trio Max 14" screens:the connected pack weighs 2x my new thin laptop!The magnets hold both, but I had to use 8 metal disks, 2 per magnet, to move Trio Max to middle, not sticking out when put away, then move it over 1 inch to swivel the closest screen after sliding it out.However the weight of either Trio screens retracted behind my laptop screen would pull down the laptop screen. If you have both Trios attached you need to pull them both out and swivel forward.Also, Displaylink is super fast connecting to 1 monitor on either the big USB 3.0 or USB-C 3.0, but adding the 2nd monitor sometimes Displaylink will power up both, but sometimes just 1 and I have to disconnect & reconnect the Trio without signal until Displaylink sets up a proper session.I have a new RP15 laptop with an 8-core Ryzen 4800H, with one of the fastest framerate Nvidia RTX 2600 custom cooling and overclock setups, and AMD Radeon 7 internal graphics in power-saving mode, so unless you have a very fast laptop graphics hardware, you will have to unplug and reconnect your 2nd Trio to get Displaylink to signal it. This is a fault of the Displaylink driver, which encapsulates the native hardware graphics stream and re-streams it to the Trios, once Displaylink initializes the stream, everything works great and games look good all across the 3. But getting Displaylink to recognize the 2nd monitor is the problem sometimes.It is definitely the Displaylink driver, as soon as I plug in the 2nd Trio the Win10 device manager recognizes the 2nd monitor, it flashes white as Win10 adds it, then goes black and sits there as Displaylink shows nothing. Hopefully this will be fixed in a Displaylink update, they both work eventually after reconnection 5 x sometimes, but buggy DisplayLink driver is annoying
The second screen works great when presenting or sharing my main screen during virtual meetings. Also increases productivity when working on my main screen while displaying reference materials on the Trio.
I purchased 2 of the Trio Max screens and I am glad that I did. They allow me to view multiple documents without having to constantly open and close windows. The directions were easy to read and setup was very easy. I am very happy with my purchase and now to convince my company for a reimbursement.......
I was a bit confused with assembly and added too many magnets to my computer, so id recommend watching a youtube video before you start assembling. However, now it is such a great addition to my learn from home life and has been really helpful with working somewhere besides my desk
We weren’t expected to receive this for another 4 to 5 days and got it today. I am super excited because the price was under every other monitor with the bells and whistles this offered. It works fantastic and because I know work from home, It is only going to enhance my job capacity.
I am heavily reliant on multiple monitors, and this product was perfect for me to be able to take the show on the road. Fit in my laptop case, and easily attaches and detaches. On the plane, I did not use the multiple monitors, but upon arrival I was instantly ready to get down to business. Easy set up, plug and play. Magnets are strong and provide adequate stability - based on the position of the notebook "lid". Important to position the bottom of the Mobile Pixels Trio Max on your working surface for added stability. Highly recommend.
