Jack of all trades, Master of none
> 3 dayI have to admit, I was a bit hesitant to take a chance on an unknown company without much of an Amazon footprint. However, Im glad I did! The monitor has exceeded my expectations, and I wouldnt hesitate to purchase from this company again. I emailed the company to register my product and found they were prompt, friendly, and highly professional in their response. This service level only adds to my satisfaction with the monitor itself. Though a newer model is available, this model was perfect for my needs, especially at its sub $100 price point. I primarily use it as an extra monitor for emails, messages, and general text, and it performs flawlessly. The monitor is super lightweight, and with the free gift you can request when registering the product, you get an additional case that seems to protect the monitor even more. It runs on USB-C, so there are no proprietary cables, and it has worked for me both angled and in line with my laptop, depending on the desk space. No issues working off my Mac (2016 MBP), and it powers directly without needing the extra charge cable. One important thing to remember is to ensure youre using the included cables or ones that meet at least USB 3.1 standards. As other reviewers have mentioned, I initially tried using a different cable from a reputable company, only to find that the monitor didnt work. After reading the reviews, I switched to the cable in the package, and the monitor worked seamlessly. This is a critical piece of advice that can save you time, frustration, and a trip to Best Buy.

> 3 dayThis monitor is what I was looking for. I have a 4th generation iPad Pro 11 that has become my main daily driver. I felt like a needed the extra screen space but felt unsure about how practical it would be. I was looking for something compact, sturdy, with great image quality and reasonable price. I found this monitor and was originally attracted by the low cost but was unsure about the other qualities I was looking for. The monitor arrived in a very nice box. Packaging I would say was more than I expected for a product in this price category. It came with all the cables needed. Connecting to the iPad was straightforward and it worked immediately without any glitches. I just needed to go into settings to choose to extend vs mirror and that was it. One the features that I like the most is being able to connect power to the monitor and the iPad receiving charge at the same time. I was concerned that I needed to get an extra Y split cable to send the video signal to the monitor and charge but again, all cables included in the monitor are sufficient. As far as the image, the HD resolution is sufficient for me for the kind of work that I do which is mostly text editing, note taking, etc. I love how many of the iPad apps look so much nicer as they get blown up in this bigger screen. As a plus, I’m able to connect this to my MacBook Pro, also without any issues. I’ve already taken this monitor to meetings in public places. With the use of an external power pack (26,000 mAh) I’m able to be completely mobile for 5+ hours which is more than plenty. The iPad can power the monitor on it’s own but I’m unsure as for how long. Overall I’m extremely satisfied and honestly surprised for the value I’ve received.

Greater than one weekJust purchased the monitor listed and it arrived quickly and well packaged. The device worked out of the box and was easy to connect and begin using. The intended purpose is for this to be used during travel to expand the monitor real-estate for my laptop. I will update this review should the experience change. For now, we are very impressed and excited to use this monitor .

> 3 dayAll in all, this portable screen has been a game changer! I am predominately WFH and have multiple spots where I like to post up and work, and sometimes it involves moving around to new locations or even going to coffee shops, etc. My point being though, this screen is an amazing secondary companion for traveling with me anywhere and allows for the most necessary second screen! I would recommend this product to anyone needing a second screen for work or just everyday life. Have connected all types of laptops to it with no hassles at all. The connection instructions are easy to understand and all functionality of the screen is great. The customer service is kind and they even sent over a cool carrying case! GREAT PRODUCT

> 3 dayThis portable monitor is great for people who aren’t exactly tech friendly. I’ve normally only had laptops so when I bought a mini Mac to save money and used this portable monitor for the screen I was a little bit out of my realm but the instructions are clear, everything is labeled and they give you all the cords and plugins you could possibly need! It’s really slim, a little heavier than I thought but not by a lot and the screen itself is great! Overall if you’re looking for a portable option that isn’t super expensive this is the perfect product!

> 3 dayI unpacked this, plugged it in, and it worked immediately that it actually scared me, like Woah, this is wild! I need an extra monitor to work while traveling, and super happy I found this. The screen is even larger than my MacBook Pro screen. Very important that it is also slim (and so is the magnetic stand) for easy packing in my suitcase or backpack. Great product and customer service seems all there should I need to reach out.

> 3 dayI travel for work and hate leaving behind my two external monitors and having to work from a small laptop screen. NO MORE! This monitor worked great on my first trip. I love that it is powered by the USB-C cable, so I dont have to carry extra cables or power supplies if I dont want (it does come with other cables and a power supply, so theyve thought of everything). Screen quality is very good. It is light and easy to pack in the same case as my laptop. Overall, a great product!

Greater than one weekI needed a portable monitor for my PS4 - I dont have a TV anymore, but want to game again - this monitor works perfectly. Its small and doesnt need another power cord (two cords from the PS4) which is really convenient. And the company is very responsive - I registered for a 2-year warranty and a free monitor stand. And Amazon had a coupon, so this cost right at $100 - cant beat it.

> 3 dayI recently purchased the ForHelp 15.6-inch Portable Monitor, and I must say, it exceeded my expectations in every way. As a frequent traveler, I was specifically looking for a portable monitor to use as a Samsung Dex terminal, and this monitor turned out to be the ideal companion. First and foremost, the setup process was a breeze. With the included cables, it was truly a plug-and-play experience. I connected my Samsung S22 to the monitor, and voila! It worked flawlessly right out of the box. I didnt have to deal with any complicated configurations or technical hiccups. For someone like me who values convenience, this was a huge plus. The size of the monitor is just perfect. At 15.6 inches, it strikes the right balance between portability and usability. The screen is vibrant and sharp, delivering crisp visuals that enhance my Samsung Dex experience. Whether Im working on spreadsheets or watching videos, the monitors display quality impresses me every time. Another feature I appreciate is the monitors versatility. It not only serves as a Samsung Dex terminal but also works well with other devices. Ive connected it to my laptop, gaming console, and my wife’s iPad, and the results have been consistently excellent. The monitors compatibility with different devices expands its functionality, making it a worthwhile investment. Portability is a key factor for me, and this monitor truly delivers. Its slim, lightweight, and easy to pack in my travel laptop bag. Lastly, I must commend ForHelp for their exceptional customer service. They truly want their customers to have an ideal experience with their products. Its always reassuring to know that a brand stands behind its product and cares about customer satisfaction. In conclusion, the ForHelp 15.6-inch Portable Monitor has been a game-changer for my travel setup. Its seamless integration with Samsung Dex, outstanding display quality, portability, and versatility make it a standout choice. If youre a frequent traveler or someone who values convenience and performance, I highly recommend this monitor. Its worth every penny and deserves a solid five-star rating!

> 3 dayI was having the most stressful day at work, shifting through different programs and kept thinking “I really need a second screen!” I purchased a different brand back in 2020 and hated the quality and how glitchy it was, so naturally I was afraid that this would be the same scenario. I ordered it because it was cheap and has a high rating. Plus the same day delivery was a plus. VERY HAPPY TO REPORTTTTTTT…it’s perfect. I just connect it to my MacBook and have a second screen. picture quality is great and it looks beautiful next to my MacBook. The screen real estate is perfect to have a few programs opened on that screen and work more efficiently. If you are looking for a second screen…THIS IS IT!
