Review on Enhance Your Viewing Experience with WIMAXIT M1560CT2 Ultra Slim 15.6" Touchscreen HD Monitor - 1920X1080 Resolution by Matt Whatley

Good portable monitor, touch screen is buggy

EDIT: Update by lowering the overall view to two runs. "Fragility" intensified. On a bad day, the "touch" doesn't work at all. It's just that the touch component is constantly connecting and disconnecting, causing Windows to beep every few seconds to indicate new hardware is connected. Touching the USB-C cable or moving the screen or laptop can turn the screen off completely. Using a good quality USB-C cable might solve the problem, but I don't have one, I use the one that comes with it. PROCESSING END The monitor is OK. Looks good, with a matte finish, colors and brightness are fine. You need a USB-C to USB "power-only" cable to get more than 40 or 50% brightness, so I prefer using two cables, but one USB-C cable will do for starters . I've used it with two other touchscreens, however this may be the source of my problems: the touchscreen calibration "sticks" not. Running Windows Touch Calibration to set specific displays to specific touch inputs usually works for a while, but after about 15 minutes the touch portion of the monitor will disconnect and reconnect, often resetting which external monitor you're using which touch surface is connected. The touchscreen sometimes slows down and registers input a few seconds after pressing the screen. It looks like everything could be related to the monitor's power supply: potential problems can be solved by lowering the brightness or using an external power supply or a self-powered USB hub. However, I would not use this monitor as a user interface. I only rely on it for window changes and other conveniences.
