Small monitor that just works great

Judging from this monitor's video reviews, it really is an excellent package - thin, sharp, bright, responsive. First, it's a dual USB 2.0 Y-cable to USB-C. What happened was that USB-C worked properly on the RTX card.

Decent monitor, some ghosting, missing cables, REQUIRED to use remote

This is a decent average 4K monitor. The build quality is solid and the stand is really nicely designed to allow you to position the screen at different angles with sticky rubber grips on the bottom, which is perfect for the laptop I use. Color accuracy is pretty good. Neutral: The speakers aren't very good, even considering it's one of the only models with a front dome light. They can crackle quite a bit. HDR is mediocre. It doesn't distort color much, but doesn't add much either. The bad: NO…

False advertising - my new rating

I was delighted with this product when I ordered it and for the price I wasn't expecting an amazing HDR monitor. I noticed bad ghosting and then looked at the possibilities on another site. The response time is 8 ms. It states that the element supports rotation, no. It was an awful joke. Confused 1080p - Claimed touchscreen support, no. - The USB-C port for power delivery is poorly designed and the cable is very lost.

  • Complex setup

Absolutely the worst purchase I have ever made from Revain. I want to return this junk. This is a decent screen but its brightness is 0 and the screen was only fully bright once. I've tried many different ways to power it with a second USB-C cable but it's so tedious at the moment. This is one of the worst products you can ever buy on this site. Please switch to another model, another brand, another alternative - whatever!

Great for most people but not for me

This is a great portable monitor. Unfortunately I'd love to use it in portrait mode next to my main monitor, but it seems to have some sort of auto-detection when positioned on its side, and in portrait mode it also doesn't support 4K resolution on my Macbook Pro. via HDMI, nor via USB. -WITH. 4K works fine in normal landscape mode and I can use macOS to rotate the screen sideways in 4K, but when I actually move the screen sideways it tries to "auto-rotate" the screen view and it breaks 4K and…

Great monitor after replacing the charging cable

All in all it's a nice screen that works great. Received as a birthday gift on August 17th and although I had an initial issue with a defective USB-C to USB-A power cable, G-Story customer service was responsive and received a set of two charging cables. fixed the problem. The problem I had with the power cord was that it didn't offer a secure connection and had a tendency to fall out. Attached is a video I sent to G-Story Customer Service showing the cable falling out and not connecting. If…

  • Limited customization options

Pros - bright screen (requires connection to a higher voltage or may need to connect both USB-C ports if using lower voltage) - very thin and light - speakers are either front facing or downward facing (better than aimed at). rear part like most portable monitors) Cons - requires a lot of power to work (previously I could only connect one USB port to my game console to turn it on, but now it takes at least 2) - auto-rotate feature cannot be disabled - only 2 tiny holes for the vesa mount (I had
