AYY Portable Monitor for Laptop 15 Inch, FHD 1080P USB-C HDMI Travel Monitor External for Computer, Second Display HDR IPS Gaming Monitor Extender for PC MAC Phone PS4/5 Xbox Switch, Built-in Speakers

Great monitor, light, portable, easy setup. Could not get it to work on any of our phones or tablets, but did not buy it for that. Purchased for my laptop and it does great!!!

I was looking for an inexpensive screen for a digital picture frame I'm building using a Raspberry Pi. The AYY 15 inch Aa5G1B looked like it would fit the bill, so I decided to try it. I REALLY like it! I've recently used other portable monitors, and I really wish I'd got this one instead for that application as well. It's a great size for my need, and it would also be great as a second monitor for a laptop. It's light enough to carry with a laptop. It is able to be used with a DP-enabled USB-C port alone, or it can be externally powered and used with a standard HDMI output. It comes with all 3 cables to do either, as well as a USB power supply (5V, 2A). Even though it's light, it also feels solid and able to withstand the rigors of life on the road. The cover is also the stand for the screen while in use. The biggest thing I like about this cover vs the others is that it's actually attached to the monitor's back with a couple of screws. The cover stays attached while setting it up. The other screens I tried are simply held in place magnetically, which is sort of a pain. The screen has a native resolution of FHD (1920x1080). The image is bright, crisp, and clean. This is the case of both the single-cable use on a USB-C and on my Raspberry Pi using the HDMI output and the external power supply. While I'm not a gamer, the response time is plenty fast to watch a FHD 60 FPS video without any problems. Something I didn't see in the description was the warranty. The screen comes with a full 1 year warranty. If you go to the website and register it, AYY gives you an additional 2 year warranty, for an explicitly expressed 3 years of warranty coverage. That's exceptional for any portable monitor, let alone one that sells for $50 in the US! I only just got it today, so I can't vouch for the longevity of the monitor, but a warranty like that gives me great hope. I honestly don't have anything negative to say about this thing at this point. It gave me a great first impression on unboxing it, and after 5 hours using it so far, my opinion has only gotten better.

While not the best display on the market by any stretch, I give this monitor 5 stars because of the value for the money. It runs at a pretty basic 60 FPS, has standard 1920 x 1080p resolution, and has acceptable color accuracy. Nothing here blows me away, but for the price and convenience of a small display, it works great and is extremely reliable. I use mine sideways underneath my camera for video calls, which has been working great for me. I also put it on my own stand, which works okay, but what's nice is that you can get a VESA mount and put it on a stand properly. I just don't own one. It's very easy to use, you just need to plug in the power and your display cable. Or, if your device supports USB-C Thunderbolt display, you can just plug in one cable which will charge and output the display signal. Very minimalist, from an aesthetic point of view, which I like. Black bezels and nothing too fancy. I haven't traveled with it yet, but it seems pretty durable, and it has a little case that you can put it in for travel.

At $60 this is a fantastic monitor - at $100, maybe not so much. It was packed well - a thick, board game styled box with medium stiff foam cushioning the panel itself. beneath the panel is a space for a 2000ma USB power block, USB cables and a mini HDMI to full size HDMI cable. It can be mounted on a monitor stand if it has the 75mm mounting holes. The picture is bright with decent blacks, and nice color. The 2D portion of Performance Test did seem to smear a bit - but I suppose it could do that on any monitor, but I thought I should mention it. I plugged it into the Thunderbolt port on my Thinkpad T480s, and it worked with the single cable - great if you're doing presentations. It also works with some phones and tablets. Sound is usable - mostly. Very tinny, but given the speaker size you can't expect much. Like I said at the start - at $60 this is a FANTASTIC monitor. Right now, it's OK...

Pretty impressive for something that costs less than $60. It's a thin, lightweight aluminum slab that provides a reasonably (see below) good image and response time, and basically performs as advertised. No particularly weird design choices or major flaws. No dead or stuck pixels out of the box that I could see with a quick inspection. I want to point out a few things though. I did a quick test with my colorimeter, and of course it's way too blue out of the box. Bumping the green and blue channels down from 50 to about 41 gets it closer to 6500K but not exactly as the controls aren't precise enough. I measured a contrast ratio of about 900:1 after adjustment and fairly mediocre color and gamma accuracy overall. But, again, it's a sub-$60 display, so this isn't a surprise. Another thing is that the matte anti-glare coating is very heavy. The whole picture is noticeably soft and grainy which is probably more noticeable at a higher brightness. This is probably fine for most use cases when it's advertised as "portable", but it's something to be aware of. One other thing I noticed in the OSD is a "FreeSync" option, which is not advertised anywhere and surprised me to find. I can't test if it actually works as I don't have a modern AMD GPU to attach it to. I also don't have the tools for testing input latency or response times. I also didn't test the HDR or speakers as I don't plan to use them. It specifies a 5V 2A power draw on the back and comes with a corresponding USB power adapter and USB cable. However, while testing it with a USB power meter attached, it usually drew about half that, and at a brightness of 29 (which gives 80 nits after color adjustments) it was actually able to be powered from a PC's USB 2.0 port. I would not recommend doing that, but it seems like it would work in a pinch. Also, there's no branding on the chin like it shows in the pictures. The front is totally blank, which is great. The included Type C to Type C cable seems to be a 10Gbps cable, so that's a nice bonus if you want to use it for something else like external storage. Really not a whole lot to complain about at this price point. Would definitely recommend this as a cheap extra display.

I use it as a second screen when I go to the office, and it has been an excellent tool for boosting productivity. The image quality is outstanding, truly a 10 out of 10, with very accurate and vibrant colors. The brightness works perfectly in medium or darker environments, though under direct light it's better to adjust the angle slightly to reduce reflections. The build quality feels solid, and the materials give a sense of durability. Connectivity is also very easy with Windows, macOS, and Samsung DeX, making it simple to use in any setup without complications. Overall, the experience has been very positive.

Came today all boxed up solidly. Intructions, cords, everything I needed to get it up and running. . I tried it out on an old Chromebook (Acer R11), but I'll need to get an adapter to use it with an older MacBook Air. I also connected my Pixel 8 to the monitor with no issues. You can see I rotated the phone and the monitor accepted the rotated image. Video played just fine from phone to monitor. . With the Chromebook... to view YouTube videos and the like, I needed to plug the monitor into a power strip. The USB cord and plug block was provided with the monitor, so pretty easy to do. The USB ports on the Chromebook apparently do not put out enough power, so the monitor flickered and really couldn't handle playing videos just hooked up to the Chromebook for power and HDMI. . I purchased a stand so I could put the monitor above my laptop, as I prefer looking up instead of side-to-side. . Once I figured out how to navigate through the menu with the buttons, I was able to tweak any settings I wanted. The sound isn't all that loud, even on 100%, so I made my laptop my sound output and can watch video on the larger monitor screen with ample sound coming from my laptop speakers. . Overall... I'm very satisfied with this monitor. My expectations were absolutely met.... I'm buying an off-brand item on Amazon, so I typically temper my expectations based on that. . Lastly, the cover is okay, and I kept it for traveling with the monitor, but removed the screws so I can use the monitor in my stand and not fuss with the flap/cover.

Honestly for the price and the functionality it offers, I couldn’t be happier with the product. I was surprised at how extremely light it is but it doesn’t feel cheap at all, the image is nice and clear, obviously no 4K resolution here but again for the price you can’t beat it, it comes with a foldable flap cover which is cool and all the cables you need. I mainly got it for my switch and it works great, i will say my iPad is way louder than this monitor but i think the volume is just right for me and my use for it, all in all I’m very pleased with my purchase.
