DroiX PM14 4K Portable Monitor

I recently picked up this USB-C powered portable monitor, and I'm thoroughly impressed with its performance. Setting it up was a breeze – just plugged in the power and HDMI, and it immediately mirrored my screen flawlessly. With a quick function key press, I extended it for more workspace, which was seamless. Despite its 14-inch size compared to my laptop's 16 inches, the display is remarkably sharp and clear, making icons and text easy to read. It's incredibly convenient for travel; fitting snugly into my pack's tablet slot and offering additional USB-C connections and a headphone jack. The included felt sleeve protects it adequately, though it could be more accommodating for the power brick and cords. Overall, it's been a fantastic addition to my mobile setup, proving invaluable for both work and leisure on the go.

This screen is absolutely stunning its slim, lightweight design blew me away. It's the perfect companion for anyone who needs extra screen space on the go, seamlessly integrating with a laptop for enhanced productivity. The included felt-style sleeve provides adequate protection, reminiscent of higher-priced cases I've used for laptops in the past. While it's sufficient for a dedicated backpack, I'd opt for something sturdier if carrying it in a regular bag.The display is impressive, boasting bright colors and clear 4K resolution that's a joy to work with. However, the power and menu buttons feel a bit cheap and flimsy, contrasting with the otherwise polished product. Despite this minor gripe, I'm thoroughly impressed with the screen overall. It's already become a point of contention between my girlfriend and me, as we both vie for time with this cool new gadget.

Great quality display. If using USBC it's awesome. If laptop is older and you find yourself using HDMI, plan to have a second power cable.

Documentation in the package referenced battery level, and a non USBC port. The unit received has no battery. Okay for my needs, but be aware... power is required.

Best use case is USB Thunderbolt, one cable only from laptop to display. For this, it's PERFECT.

It took me some time to decide on a monitor which fitted my needs. I am a web developer and work from home most days. I needed something I could set up quickly, put away at the end of the day or take with me into the office. The monitor had to be Mac compatible. (I am using Macbook Pro M1 14" and Sonoma). I didn't need touchscreen functionality. The screen had to be bright and have a great resolution alongside my Macbook screen. It was simple plug and play. The Mac OS provides a lot of options for screen resolutions and colour profiles. I have mine set to 1920 x 1080 (HiDPI) and sRGB with refresh rate of 60 Hertz.

For the price point this monitor fitted my needs perfectly. I power it straight from my Macbook using the supplied USB-C cable. I mention price point because, as I suspected, I was not expecting a super solid build. The bezel and outer shell is cheapish plastic. The buttons at the side are solid enough and I have no concerns, for my usage, that this product will last and I am very happy with it. The stand at the back seems tight enough at the moment to stand at certain angles, although I have it at it's maximum tilt.

I hope this helps someone else, because it took a long time researching what would suit me best. Some products are way overpriced or had low screen resolutions. This has fitted the bill perfectly. As a side note, I tend to not give products 5 stars. A 5 star would have been better outer casing which would, I assume have pushed the price up.

This remarkably thin and lightweight portable monitor is ideal for travelers seeking compactness without sacrificing visual quality. While its slender design enhances portability, it does feel somewhat fragile, albeit the soft case provided offers basic protection against scratches rather than impact. Notably, it lacks a built-in battery, necessitating a constant power source from the connected device, a wall outlet, or a power bank. Despite its non-touchscreen nature, the 4K OLED display delivers crisp and vibrant images. In our tests, it seamlessly functioned when connected to a netbook drawing power from the computer and performed admirably when connected to a Nintendo Switch using a power bank. Included in the package are a power lead, HDMI cable, and USB-C connection cable, ensuring immediate connectivity options for various devices.
