Portable laptop screen?

Posted 20th Feb 2023

Hi all
does anyone recommend a portable laptop screen for working on the go?
Looking to get one but not sure if anything was recommended. I'm not hoping to spend too much as I usually work at my own desk and have a set up!

Thanks

Probably be best to just buy a cheap laptop

Yes, but the portable screens are handy to allow two screens to be used, with less bulk than a normal monitor. (edited)

I have the 2K version of this;

amazon.co.uk/Por…DXX

It's quite nice and great as a second screen, but I never got comfortable with the ergonomics. I prefer my second screen to be above my laptop, which is just not possible in the real world (well, until Lenovo release this years laptops!).

Mine was also before USB C, so it's powered off a wall wart and HDMI. The wires weren't really an inconvenience, but I can see a USB C version is one less thing to worry about.

I paid only £1.50 less then its current price,I highly recommend this one, 400 NITS:

Perfect also with every phone I tried in DeX mode.

I RARELY recommend something,this is one of those cases.
