Kogan 15.6" portable monitor on sale. I think it's similar to a monitor made by Lepow (they are probably made in the same factory but branded slightly differently as they have the same ports).

2 x USB-C, HDMI mini, headphone jack, speakers. Comes with HDMI mini to HDMI cable, USB-C to USB-C cable, wall adapter and USB-A to USB-C cable (for adapter). Works with Switch.

Relatively cheap compared to it's usual rip-off price of $500. I haven't looked at portable monitor prices since the start of the pandemic but I think prices across the board are higher, maybe due to the chip shortage.

    Save yourself $60 and can grab the ones off eBay for ~$160 delivered. Just rebadged generic USB-C monitors.

    • taeryn on 11/03/2021 - 22:30

      Any suggestions on half decent ones?

        I use the Corprit branded one. I use mine as a Switch dock with a powerful power bank.

        • FireRunner on 11/03/2021 - 23:34

          I saw a review for the Corprit one and the screen was all washed out and looked horrible. Does yours look ok?

    • Ghost47 on 11/03/2021 - 22:30

      Hmm interesting, just looked and saw the ones you're talking about. Seems to be branded as "Corprit". After skimming through a couple of Youtube videos the quality seems to be okay, wonder how it stacks up to this one.

        the ebay one can't be any worse, this is kogan after all

      Haha, pretty much the rule with every kogan product imho

  • clx on 11/03/2021 - 22:34

    I don't get the difference between that and this: https://www.kogan.com/au/buy/kogan-156-touchscreen-full-hd-i…, which is touchscreen but has a much lower RRP.

      Simply put, the RRP is Bullsh!t.

    • taeryn on 11/03/2021 - 22:48

      Screen is thicker would be the reason I'd say.

      • clx on 11/03/2021 - 23:02

        I think the screen is thinner for parts of it

  • bargaino on 11/03/2021 - 22:41

    Do these have some sort of generic power input (e.g. 12V car source) or does it need to be USB-C? Specs are vague.

    • McFly on 11/03/2021 - 23:12

      Specs aren't vague - it's USB-C only for power.

    Pretty dim. You should be able to do better for this price or not much more

    • superroach on 12/03/2021 - 00:34

      Main reason for the dimness is the amount it's allowed to draw over usb c sadly - an inherent problem for all usb c monitors.

      • cosjav on 12/03/2021 - 10:59

        This one suggests "Brightness: 400-500cd/m2 (Dynamic Brightness in different display modes)"

        Not sure if its true though….

        (edit: actually, might require separate power since it comes with power adapter - the post has conflicting info…)

      • Phoebus on 13/03/2021 - 00:33

        No. USBC can provide 100 Watts

  • mingofmongo on 11/03/2021 - 23:56

    Does anyone know of a portable 15.6" monitor that has a built-in battery AND works with the Switch (without the need for a dock)? This one meets half that requirement (works with the Switch) but I'm guessing it either drains the Switch's battery, or needs a USB powerbank to be connected to power it. It'd be good to find one with a largeish battery built in. Appreciate any tips!

    • pizzaguy on 12/03/2021 - 00:34

      Can you connect Switch to any display without using dock?

      • mingofmongo on 12/03/2021 - 07:24

        This one claims you can, and shows a picture of it working that way. I was surprised myself as I know the Switch's display out specification is a somewhat arcane version of displayport over USB.

    • superroach on 12/03/2021 - 00:35

      Probably won't happen, besides the need for a decent charging rate, you are also going to battle the switch with it's arcande usage (or misusage) of the power specification - in short, be careful plugging anything into the switch while attempting to use it in dock mode (high power), as it can destroy a voltage regulator inside it and leave it not charging.

    • The Value on 12/03/2021 - 01:03

      Doesn't exist. The Switch needs a lot of juice in docked mode. I use a 60w power bank.

    • Melb69 on 12/03/2021 - 07:00

      There is the ASUS Zen one with battery. The Switch does not work without dock and power. Which sort of counters the portability.
