I work from home and decided to pick this up. My friends have TWO but i could afford that many. This one is cheap enough and also looks great. Compact portable size for my 15inch laptop with good quality display. Helpful for presentations and multitasking.

Get more work done!

I started my own business this year and wanted a laptop instead of a PC because of it's portability. Sometimes I work from home and sometimes I work from my parents house as my dad is ill and I'm trying to spend as much time with him as I can. Working from just 1 screen slowed me down a lot. Having the 2nd monitor allows me to move QUICK! I am a lot more efficient having 2 screens than just the one. Once you have 2 screens, you realize how much more productive you are. A few months ago, my screen had a crack that wasn't due to anything I could attribute it to. I contacted the company and they immediately sent me a new one. I was super happy about that, especially considering the price point.

Good quality and design

This is a great idea to make the secondary monitor sticking to the back of the laptop. I was a little hesitant about this design, but once I received a month ago, it has been doing great, standing strong. The double sided tapes and magnets are super strong, the monitor is not going anywhere. Monitor resolution is very high, display contrast and brightness are on par with my MacBookPro. This product has made my life so much easier. I will probably order another one for a friend for Christmas.

Magnets don't do the job
on December 7, 2021

UPDATE: The 4th (gorilla glued) magnet did not stick & neither did the other one on that side of the monitor. I am sending it back. Someone needs to come up with a better idea that actually works! ORIGINAL REVIEW: The product comes with 4 magnets that you stick to your laptop with the stickers provided. 3 of the 4 magnets are holding great, but the 4th (probably the one that holds the most weight) did not hold. We used gorilla glue to attach that magnet to my laptop, and now it is holding. I am very careful when sliding the monitor in and out. I'm not convinced it will be long lasting if I were to slide it in & out all day long. The picture quality is great. I am excited to have the 2nd screen. I maybe should have just bought one of the free standing 2nd monitors. But if you need to work with limited space (such as on your lap), then this is definitely the way to go.

Unusable, magnets aren't strong enough

Couldn't even reach the point of turning on the monitor because the magnets aren't strong enough to hold itself to any laptop and the stand doesn't let it stand on its own. It's a piece of junk, don't buy it

Tech to make projects easier
on November 30, 2021

I only recently became aware that companies made second screens for laptops, so I broke down and got one because I have a few things that it would be handy to use.
I am still getting used to it but I can give one tip to start. The screen is very bright when you are installing it. On the front, next to where the plug is, there are touch buttons to adjust the brightness.
The install instructions and the QR code that I received with this item were not accurate. The QR code is no longer valid. If using windows operating system, just plug in the monitor, it will start up right away. The sticky magnetic pads are easy to install but the added monitor is heavy enough that you must use it with a table or flat surface so that the weight can rest on it. The frame of the monitor is larger than my laptop so for me, that is a little irksome, next time I would purchase a smaller 2nd monitor if it fit my needs.
I have noticed that the coloring it slightly different from the laptop and the focus is a little bit off comparatively. Overall, however, I do like the monitor and has made my project much easier to manage rather that flipping back and forth or scrolling through long pages/documents.
