This previously popular portable monitor is back in stock with a slightly different model on sale for a better price. Instead of 144Hz refresh rate it's now 120Hz and the panel brightness has gone from 400cd/m² to 480cd/m². Despite these changes it's still excellent value and easily one of the best portable monitors.

If you don't require a touchscreen then you can get it cheaper here

Featuring a 16" IPS display with 2560x1600 resolution, 16:10 aspect ratio, touchscreen, 120Hz refresh rate with Freesync, 480cd/m² brightness, 100% DCI-P3 colour gamut, HDR, 1200 contrast ratio, 178° wide viewing angle, VESA mounting and dual speakers. There's two USB-C ports for display/power and power input, PD passthrough charging, Mini HDMI and a 3.5mm audio jack.

    120Hz or 144Hz?

    • Clear on 20/03/2023 - 19:19
      +3

      They updated the listing it seems. Lemme fix.

      I think it should have been like this last time anyway. Others seem to be 120Hz over HDMI and 144Hz over USB-C.

    • Pixie13 on 20/03/2023 - 19:20

      Feels like need to split the difference 132hz

        His or hz

        • Pixie13 on 20/03/2023 - 19:28

    • Clear on 20/03/2023 - 19:43

      My ultrawide doesn't fit in my backpack so when traveling a portable monitor is pretty useful alongside my laptop.

    • xoom on 20/03/2023 - 19:43

      Secondary screen for a laptop.

          I have an s22 ultra and dex has a laptop like interface. It can do the basics so for me its ok.

    • FabMan on 21/03/2023 - 08:16

      I take my Android tablet with my laptop to use as a second screen, it is very useful when doing certain work.

      • timhn on 22/03/2023 - 13:03

        How? Does it has to be certain tablet?

        • FabMan on 22/03/2023 - 13:18

          I use and app called SuperDisplay, install it on the PC and on the tablet.

  • YLD1 on 20/03/2023 - 19:50

    Doesn’t come with a stand

    Anyone who has this monitor recommend anything other than the stand they sell as an extra

    • Clear on 20/03/2023 - 19:51
      +2

      The protective case folds and can be used as a stand.

      • YLD1 on 20/03/2023 - 20:25

        Thank you for confirming

  • cosjav on 20/03/2023 - 19:59

    How about this one? Works out to be about 141 usd and seems better?

    • Clear on 20/03/2023 - 20:00
      +1

      Cheaper as there's no touchscreen. Otherwise it's good.

      • cosjav on 20/03/2023 - 20:00

        Ah of course 😅

    • blonky on 20/03/2023 - 20:07

      Colour accuracy is only 79% DCI vs 100% for this deal

    • AustriaBargain on 20/03/2023 - 21:23

      Apparently all these cheap portable screens are pretty good, if you can find the exact one on Amazon then it's probably fine.

  • theguyrules on 20/03/2023 - 20:03

    I need to get one of these for when I work while travelling at the end of the year. I don't really have a lot of use for one yet but it's good to know the prices are good!

  • robjan02 on 20/03/2023 - 20:14

    Hi Clear,
    I'm looking at getting this particular monitor and THANK-YOU for your help in the past.
    I missed out on the last deal you had as it sold out.
    Can you tell me what you think of this one (below) in comparison and if there are any discount codes for it too ???
    Thanks again
    https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004866405494.html?spm=a2…

    • Clear on 20/03/2023 - 20:22

      OzBargain rules prevent me from posting stores with <95% feedback but I'm sure the seller is fine. Colour gamut is less being only 100% sRGB without DCI-P3, but it is slightly bright at 500cd/m². Important to note the below if you get the 144Hz version.

      Please Note: The 144Hz version can only get 144Hz by type-c and DP port, if you connect the monitor to your device by HDMI port, it can only reach 130Hz.

      • robjan02 on 20/03/2023 - 20:25

        Thanks Clear….

    Are there deals on portable oled screens? I'm thinking with dark theme maybe they would be good for reading like eink monitors but cheaper and better.

      This one can be had for pretty much the same price as before with the coupon AN18 or US$192ish for the 13.3" 4k non-touch.

  • AFM7 on 20/03/2023 - 20:38

    Hi Clear,

    Any 14-17 inch touch screen 2k monitors with 144Hz or above?

    • Clear on 20/03/2023 - 20:49
      +2

      17.3" 2K 165Hz from US$165.73 (~A$249.69) with coupon AN18 or Bundle: 17.3 2K 165Hz US$179.27 (~A$270.09) with coupon AN18

      Quick glance found these two from same store. The US$165.73 has 300cd/m² brightness with mini HDMI + USB-C, while the US$179.27 400cd/m² brightness with mini HDMI + mini DP + USB-C.

        How did you get 179.27. I am getting 191.14

  • GalacticBacon on 20/03/2023 - 20:56

    Hey Clear,

    You don't happen to be aware of any similar displays with rear ports and a vesa mount for a wall mount?

    • Clear on 20/03/2023 - 21:02

      Various sellers have them as small as 10" with VESA. Rear ports not so much.

  • cosjav on 20/03/2023 - 20:57

    Would these portable monitors work well as a method to convert a phone with a broken screen into a tablet? (I have a Note10 plus hanging around and could make it into a decent, though not as portable tablet)..

      Should work. Dex should fire up

  • Aerith-Waifu on 20/03/2023 - 23:50

    how would this run the ps5 everyone just got?

  • luvthebargains on 21/03/2023 - 00:48

    Hey @Clear
    Appreciate your hard work!

    I've just had a look at the store and found this one

    https://m.aliexpress.com/item/1005005274426278.html

    17.3 inch 2k touch screen

    Works about to be $262.49 at checkout after code.

    Does it look any good?

  • Masticccc on 21/03/2023 - 04:35

    Anyone know a 120-144Hz portable screen that is < 200 aud. 1080p is fine cause I use it mainly for gaming when travel. Most products I find are either 1080p 60hz or 2k/4k 120-144Hz.

  • YodaBaby on 21/03/2023 - 07:28

    So if I plug my non-touch laptop into this with hdmi cable, it becomes touch?

    • Clear on 21/03/2023 - 07:44

      Connecting a USB-C cable from this to the laptop will make the portable monitor touchscreen.

      • YodaBaby on 21/03/2023 - 08:58

        Thanks. My (old) laptop does not have USB-C. I assume this device is not for me.

        • Clear on 21/03/2023 - 09:00

          USB-A to USB-C cable will do the trick.

          • SkyArrow on 21/03/2023 - 09:23
            +1

            @Clear: Are you sure about that? The listing does not mention DisplayLink at all. You won't be able to get DP Alt-mode over USB-C with a USB-A to USB-C cable or adapter.

            • Clear on 21/03/2023 - 09:26

              @SkyArrow: We're talking about touchscreen functionality. HDMI for display and USB-C or A to C for the touchscreen to work.

              • SkyArrow on 21/03/2023 - 22:55

                @Clear: Ah yes, my bad, missed that it had a mini-HDMI input

  • ritzaus on 21/03/2023 - 12:04

    Do the smaller (<12") displays get within $100AUD on sale ever? I have seen some 14" ones but looking for something smaller for a project. Thanks.

    Thanks mate, finally pulled the trigger on a touchscreen one!

  • ZeroSugar on 22/03/2023 - 00:12

    Can you give any estimates on shipping to Australia? I need one of these within the next few weeks if possible.

    • frogduck on 22/03/2023 - 13:36

      I've found the estimated dates on aliexpress to be reasonably accurate these unless something goes wrong - at the moment it says 13 April via Singapore Post.

  • Jinxinferno on 22/03/2023 - 18:47

    I'd be super interested in something like this to use when setting up NVRs for clients. Currently I'm lugging a 21" LG monitor around, and using the mouse that comes with the NVR.

    @Clear if you find anything good thats about 16" 1080p 60hz touchscreen that would be pretty much perfect

  • repeat on 23/03/2023 - 12:18

    Is "IPS A" any different to IPS, and is it also 178 degrees both x and y viewing angles?
    I would like to use this both horizontal and landscape at times, and need the viewing angles to be wide in both orientations.

    Also, when selecting the configuration with the protective case, the Au plug is not available. When selecting AU plug, is that the actual power supply with an integral AU plug, or is it just an adapter to convert the US/EU one?

    Thanks

    • Clear on 23/03/2023 - 15:45
      +1

      IPS A refers to the grade of the panel.

      The AU plug would be an AU charger and not an adapter. Any old phone charger would do the trick if you have a spare.

  • jc123 on 23/03/2023 - 15:02

    Is a touchscreen worth it for the extra $50 cost vs no touchscreen option?
    My primary use is for it to be a second screen monitor alongside my Lenovo legion 5 Pro laptop so this is probably not it for me.
    I also foresee myself get annoyed by fingerprints on screen

    • Clear on 23/03/2023 - 15:45

      Depends if you can see yourself using the touchscreen. I personally don't.

  • kampret on 25/03/2023 - 09:09

    Ordered on 20-Mar but not getting shipped yet. Is this normal?

    • frogduck on 26/03/2023 - 17:30

      Mine also hasn't shipped yet - for my other purchases on aliexpress they usually ship in 0-2 days so i'd say this is unusual

    • frogduck on 29/03/2023 - 19:01

      Mine was noted as shipped today. Got a message from the seller few days ago they were waiting on more stock so it must have arrived.

  • sydney rider on 27/03/2023 - 00:36

    Received an email from AE today, "Your order XXXXXX could not be delivered as planned. This could have happened because of a failed signing, a miscommunication, or for other reasons. Please click below to view more details regarding your order.". Anyone getting the same issue?

    • frogduck on 11/04/2023 - 08:09

      I haven't received anything like that yet, the tracking for mine shows its waiting processing in Australia. Did you get this resolved?

  • frogduck on 26/04/2023 - 14:21

    Finally got mine! There was an issue with the address they wrote on mine but eventually got it. Looks like a pretty solid monitor from first testing. Mine can get up to 144hz from the windows settings which was unexpected! Only downside would be the visible glue around the edge of the screen but I'm sure I could scrape it off if I really wanted.

    Also tried it out with the PS5 and it works well 1440p @120hz and HDR.
