[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently purchased the ThinkVision 14-inch Portable Monitor - M14d, and it has quickly become an essential part of my favorite tech setup. One of the first things I noticed is how seamlessly it integrates with my Lenovo P1 laptop and Samsung smartphone. The setup is hassle-free, and the connectivity is solid. Whether I'm working on the go or using it as a secondary screen at my desk, the M14d pairs perfectly with both devices, providing a smooth and reliable experience. Also, the monitor's resolution and color tones are fantastic. The M14d offers sharp, vibrant visuals that make working on documents, editing photos, or watching videos a pleasure. Despite being a 14-inch monitor, it feels much larger, giving off a 16-inch effect. This is probably due to the high resolution and excellent screen real estate utilization. The colors are accurate and well-balanced, making it ideal for tasks that require precision. Overall, the ThinkVision 14-inch Portable Monitor - M14d is a fantastic tool. Its compatibility, stunning resolution, and portability make it a must-have for anyone in need of a high-quality portable display. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a versatile and reliable external monitor.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At times (but not all the time) I need a second monitor to use with my ThinkVision 27 inch monitor. This is the perfect solution. I just plug it into my ThinkPad and it is ready to go. It has superb picture quality. The Lenovo Display Control Center and Lenovo Accessories & Display Manager software are very useful.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks to another reviewer who gave the tip that if you put the brightness down to around 20% you can power the monitor with your USB-C android phone, and it's still plenty bright. This allows me to use a portable monitor for my laptop as well as have a nice screen to enlarge phone entertainment while on a plane and otherwise travelling. Another cool feature is pass-through power. My Lenovo Thinkpad only has one USB-C port for power, but you can hook up the M14d for screen display in one USB-C port, and hook power to the other port and your laptop will still charge. Works for my phone as well. This fits all of my checkboxes for features and more.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I hooked this up to my computer and it had an issue for a bit until the drivers caught up, but has worked flawlessly since. I haven't owned it for too long but as far as I'm concerned it's working perfectly and is a good compliment to my ThinkPad laptop.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the perfect travel solution! Lightweight but sturdy. Great display. The ideal second screen solution to accompany my Lenovo ThinkPad.
