Pros and cons
Pros
- At 1.7 pounds, the listed weight supports carrying it with a laptop for a portable second-screen setup.
- The included smart cover is also described as a stand, so a separate stand is not required for the cover’s stated setup.
- The listing describes both USB-C and mini-HDMI video connections, giving compatible devices more than one stated connection route.
Cons
- It has no built-in battery, so it needs an external power source during use.
- It is not a wireless or touchscreen display, so it does not suit buyers who specifically need those features.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm

USB-C video also requires a compatible video-output port and cable, while HDMI requires separate USB-C power; the monitor has no built-in battery.
