Review on WESTHOD Portable Monitor Extender Speaker - 12", P2, HDMI, HD by Nate Sandstedt

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Why settle for 1 portable monitor when you can get 2!

In our family there are about 8 laptops and 3 mini PCs. We all like to have a second or even a third screen for our laptops and computers, so I also have a lot of monitors as well as portable monitors of different sizes and features, but I am very impressed with these OFIYAA Tri-Screen Portable Monitors. It allows you to easily add 2 additional monitors to any 13"-17" laptop thanks to the spring-loaded brackets that attach around your laptop's screen without tools. The brackets make it quick and easy to mount and remove, and it stays in place. This worked flawlessly with my 15" MacBook Pro. WHAT I LIKE: [+] When not in use, both monitors fold up and tuck into the frame, making them compact for storage and portability. [+] Two monitors can easily be rearranged. Attaches to most laptop screens with built-in spring-loaded brackets. [+] Both monitors feature an IPS HD 1080P screen with built-in speaker and buttons to change display settings. [+] You can combine the monitors into one Stack in a pyramid/triangle and then mirror all the screens so you can share your screen with two other people sitting on opposite sides without having to look over your shoulder!Present to other people using your laptop without a projector.[ +] Both monitors have 2 USB-C ports, an HDMI port and a USB 2.0 port for maximum flexibility.If Your laptop has a UBC Type-C port, you can just use 1 cable to power the monitor and output video/audio. HDMI port, then you need to power the monitor through a USB-C to USB 2.0 port. [+] You can use just 1 monitor in portrait mode if you want and use the mount frame as a stand! Very neat.[+] Includes 2 sets of USB-C cables, an HDMI cable and a USB to USB-C cable.[+] Also comes with a carrying/storage bag for the monitors :[-] I like the fact that both monitors have a built in speaker, I couldn't find a way to use both speakers as stereo speakers at the same time. At least on my MacBook Pro, I had to choose one or the other from the sound settings menu, but that's not the deciding factor. VALUE: Of course those are 11.6" screens, but I'd rather have two extra 11.6" screens than one 15.6" screen. " portable monitor every day. Anyone who has used multiple monitors knows that having more monitors is far more productive than having one big monitor. I also like the fact that they mount to the side of the laptop screen, freeing up desk space underneath the two monitors actually becoming one with the laptop. Really very smart design. CONCLUSION: 10 stars out of 5 Since it doesn't take up much space on my desk or get in the way like other portable monitors with stands, I highly recommend this dual monitor to anyone looking to increase their productivity.
