Picture quality is a hair below 5 stars, but worth the buy!

Im really happy with the screen. The sharpness could be better, but it does its job for me. The price is reasonable. I�d give it 5 stars for its compact and genius way it attached to laptops and it�s storability!
I was pleasantly surprised with this product's versatility. I was a bit skeptical at first, but when it's attached to my laptop, I can barely tell it's there. So if you're in a tight spot, you can leave it stowed, but pull out the additional screens when you have more room to spread out. I also was able to connect it to my desktop to use as a second monitor. I've missed my dual monitors in the office at work, so this has been a great tool. Having the ability to double screen my laptop or my desktop, depending on the day, is awesome!Great construction, great picture quality, and great range of motion. 5 out of 5 stars!
I purchased two 14" Trio Max displays so my laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad) could have a 3-monitor setup. But the displays are much too heavy for the hinge to support, plus the magnets are not even close to strong enough to support 2 displays' weight. The magnets are good for 1 display but not for 2. To address this I understand you're supposed to position them lower so they 'rest' on the table. That doesn't work out practically since this laptop has a charging port on the back. So that means the weight of the main display + 2 Trio Max's would be pressing down on the power plug- Not good!I emailed customer support to see if they could provide a solution(kickstand), after 5 days no response and I'm unable to use the Trio Max displays.Should be 0 stars for having an unusable product, but +1 because when I plugged in the displays via USB-C the picture quality/resolution was great... just can't be mounted to my laptop which is the whole point!Summary: Warning to potential buyers- if you are planning on having 3 displays or if your laptop charging plug is on the back of the computer the magnets won't be enough! And don't expect customer support to be responsive since they weren't in my case.
This is a great buy when you can’t carry multiple monitors. It makes working on just the laptop easy. Only downside is the added weight on the back of the laptop, be careful moving your laptop with the screen on it.
Boost up in productivity and enjy the functionality!

Just love it! I have 4 screens monitor setup at home and i enjoy it. But when I travel its very hard to work with single screen on laptop. Often you have to switch the tabs and go back and forth! After getting Trio Max my life become easy instead of switching its now moving to different screens. So it's totally worth it and adds more productivity to your work!
This is a great tool. I think it lives up to what it's advertized. There is only ONE thing you need to be aware of so far (I've only got a month of use so far) This is HEAVY on your screen. When you open your notebook screen, the weight will pull back on it. So, if you don't have this screen extended it will pull back on your notebook scree/monitor. Make sure your notebook has a top/screen that the lid doesn't easily go back.
I just opened and installed the screen on my Lenovo ThinkPad. I had a few worries about how heavy the screen would be it's way lighter than I expected. The only issue that I've been having is that it will randomly disconect from my computer for just a second which can be a little anyoing because if I am working on anything on the second screen, it will push it to my first screen. I checked to make sure the wire was connected right and it is. It might just have to be something that I deal with. Beside that issue, it is perfect. It's easy to install, the screen is great quality. It's exactly what I need for work and school.
