I'm not 100% sold on this one. Driver installation was very simple; however, the installation to the top of laptop is not as simple as they make it seem. Hard to get the position just right. The biggest problem is the connection cord included. It's too short! I use the Trio on the right side. If I plug into right USB port, the wire interferes with my wireless mouse. If I plug into left USB, I have to keep Trio opened all the way, not tilted inward a little because the cord is too short. If there is a way to get a longer cord, this would be almost perfect.
I am new to working from home and have gotten accustomed to working with multiple screens while working. The Trio gives me the visual layout I need to work efficiently. Awesome product and no issue thus far. Easy install!
I bought two of these for my Surface Book 3. The two Trios clip together so one slides out on each side of my main screen to give me 3 screens to work with. I am printing much less now as I can have two other documents on screen while i work in the third screen. The Trio is as clear and bright as my main screen and they are very lightweight! An installation tip - if you are seeing "please wait" on the screen when you hook it up check to make sure you are connecting the usb cable to the correct port on the Trio. The one marked with a power symbol is to charge other devices. You need to plug the Trio cord into the other port. A must have for working at home!
Great concept-problem with connection-need support

Looked around quite a bit before I made this purchase. Need to work from home from time to time. Using 2 monitors is key. I use windows.Received it and set it up. Despite using the USB C it�s not consistently connecting automatically. Have to disconnect and connect cable multiple times. It keeps saying �please wait� on a black screen.Easy to extend screen to other display using instructions, making it useful for my work. Chose this model because it was largest available (14in) but still wish it were larger.Magnets aren�t strong. Must use the plastic bar on top of laptop to hold screen up. Screen casing feels very fragile so need to be careful when putting it back in. Concerning for longevity.If can get it to connect successfully each time this product will be ideal for what I need. Suspect for others as well who are looking to use this in same manner.***If seller sees this please advise if there�s some step right after connecting monitor to laptop that would support immediate display without my having to plug and unplug several times. Would update stars if this weren�t an issue right now.
Totally worth the money to triple my monitor space on my laptop. I did buy two to add monitors to the left and the right of my primary display. Hardware installation was simple. Software installation was a breeze using the USB driver. Both displays were installed and working about 30 minutes after I opened the first box.
The biggest pro of this product is that it's light and effortless to install/uninstall anytime anywhere. I really enjoyed the flexibility it brings allowing me to take it to work outdoor or at a coffee shop in the summer time.Besides that, even I'm not a tech guy the initial set up didn't take long nor was it complicated. Have had it for 2 weeks now. No issue so far.
My second monitor has been a lifesaver while working from home during the pandemic. It's also lightweight and portable. I can't image working without it! One of the cables became defective over time, and the customer service was timely and excellent; they immediately sent me over a new one, free of charge. I highly recommend this product if you are looking for a double monitor..
