01-04-2025After using the ARZOPA 2K Portable Monitor 16 for over a month now, I would say that it is one of the best purchase decisions I have made, by far. It is indeed lightweight with excellent brightness and contrast that is adjustable based on ones own preference. Easy to set up and connect with the laptop by using USB-C cable and simply plugging it in. It also has an elegant magnetic cover that could act as its stand although I opted to buy the Arzopa adjustable monitor stand for more stability and a little elevation. There was just a minor information that needs to be updated for this products advertisement in order avoid the risk of unmet customer expectation and that is to remove the USB-A to USB-C cable information since as per clarification with the seller, the box no longer contains the said cable type since the monitors charger head uses a USB-C port. The monitor itself also have only USB-C and HDMI ports. Thus, the Arzopa product box contains two (2) USB-C cables together with other accessories as per the product information. Amazon customer service support, Latoya, and the seller, Nanyan, are very supportive about my inquiries and clarifications about it and I sincerely appreciate it. Overall, it is a great product to purchase, especially for people who prefers portability over heavier extension monitor which limits the ability to carry or move it from one location to another. I hope this product is durable so I could enjoy using it for many years. A little background on my purchase decision: I initially considered buying a traditional PC monitor to use as my extension monitor but after hearing about portable monitors from a friend and knowing that I may relocate to another place after study, I decided to reconsider purchasing a portable monitor and searched for the best quality one that would fit my budget and I found ARZOPA 2K Portable Monitor 16 to be the best among those listed in amazon.com.

> 3 dayAwesome screen just be aware not all cables are created equal. It wont work with any old cable only high quality cables or the ones it comes with. The one it comes with can transmit data AND power, but old cables will make it automatically default to sleep mode.

> 3 dayGood monitor for the price. USB C connection works great. The provided cables are a bit stiff but greatly appreciated. Save me some money to buy HDMI adapter. The only negative is getting the Smart Cover to work as a stand. I ended up using a book to prop it up like another user did. We will see how long this will last.

Greater than one weekInitial review. Same-day overnight delivery rocks! ordered it at 2 am, and got it before 2 pm the same day. The monitors case is crazy light, but well-made and sleek looking. It weighs nothing compared to the full laptop. I will take it on my overseas flight tomorrow to work remotely. Just need it for data, not graphics intensive. So far, so good! and the ~ $100 price is great. I added the 3-year warranty just in case.

> 3 dayWorks great right out of the box. USB-C carries both the video and power when plugged into my Macbook, so no need for HDMI cable. Recommended!

> 3 dayI bought this monitor as I wanted a second monitor below my main one. The clarity on this display is amazing, as its higher resolution than full HD and the screen size is small at 13 inches. The speakers on it arent the best but they do the job and can save you if you really need them. It works flawlessly with the Samsung S21 and the phone instantly recognizes it as an external display and enter DEX mode. The monitor is lightweight and quite thin, the only thing Im not the biggest fan of is the cover as it only offers 1 position and it is not ajustable. Overall pretty good purchase if you need a small external display thats capable of clear sharp images

Greater than one weekLove this thing. For what I am using it for it is great. The speakers arent great but better than I expected. Only thing that Im disappointed in is the cover stand. It does not let you put the monitor on an incline. I have to use a switch stand to lean it at a good angle to use. Other than that for 140 it was a great buy

> 3 dayThis was a top ten purchase for me. I had been using a larger monitor in my home office, but had to look around my laptop to see it, and then not very well with my vision. This monitor allows me to have the second screen right next to my laptop (Surface 8). The time it saves in copying and pasting, keeping track of emails while conducting a class and anything else a second monitor is good for is significant. I wanted this smaller monitor as it is the same size as the laptop and fits all of my travel bags. The cover is nice and can be used for a stand, but I purchased a small foldable stand to give more stability. Key points about his monitor: it is powered by a USB C cable from the laptop; it does not have a battery; this is not a problem as this only serves as a second monitor and has no other capabilities (WIFI/BT). A higher level USB C cable must be used (3.1). I tried other cables I had, but it only worked with the included USB C cable until I bought some higher level cables. Settings: I was playing with the settings and made this discovery. When the monitor has the HDR setting set to AUTO, it will deactivate come other settings. I went back and forth with their support until this was determined. At first, I though there was a problem with the setting menu button. I may but another to keep on the home desk and not to unpack after each trip.

> 3 dayTLDR: If you have a Mac and are struggling with the aspect ratio being correct, check out the BetterDisplay application that lets you add custom resolutions. I originally gave this a pretty poor review and Im updating now as I realize it may be a Mac issue and not the display. I have a 2020 MacBook Air M1, and by default, the only resolution that actually looks like the aspect ratio is correct is 2560x1600, but everything is a bit too small to read. 2560x1600 is a 16:10 aspect ratio. All of the available resolutions were not 16:10, so you get stretching when choosing them. By default, this display looks great at 1680x1050, but that wasnt an option to choose in Macs settings. I found a program called BetterDisplay that allowed me to configure additional resolutions and add more 16:10 aspect ratio options. Once I did that, everything looks great. The speakers are awful, but I didnt expect to use them anyway so I dont really care.
