Review on UPERFECT Portable Freestanding Touchscreen Kickstand: High-Resolution HD Display, Touch Screen, Built-In Speakers, Tilt Adjustment and HDMI Connectivity by John Clements

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Awesome wearable display!

Let's start with the main thing: the display. The display itself is amazing. I use it as a secondary monitor for work connected to my MacBook Pro M1 and it works right out of the box with no issues. Because the MacBook has both Thunderbolt and USB-C ports, I can only use one cable to display and power the portable monitor. Both monitor resolution and text scaling can be easily adjusted in macOS as this monitor behaves like any regular external monitor. Colors are vibrant and the screen is bright enough for indoor use. I can turn the brightness all the way up (didn't check for nits) but it's bright enough to see inside on a sunny day. Your mileage may vary if you are directly outdoors. Please note that if you connect this device via USB-C via a phone, the phone's output most likely will not have enough power to set the brightness above 20%. So if this is your use case, I would recommend getting an external power supply for the monitor. As the display panel itself uses IPS the colors are great and the biggest bonus is the fantastic viewing angles, they're around 178 degrees so you can definitely view your content from almost any angle with no color degradation. . The touchscreen is connected to my Windows device via USB-C. The touchscreen works as you might think, it's 10-point multi-touch. This is all handled by Windows drivers anyway, so any issues with that lie with the manufacturer of the driver, not UPERFECT. I haven't tried the touchscreen feature with macOS as it requires an additional driver to be loaded, but interestingly the monitor works right out of the box (no additional drivers required) as a trackpad where touching the screen controls the mouse from the main monitor macOS. .The monitor comes with many accessories, UPERFECT includes all the necessary cables and power adapters to connect the monitor to different sources, so thanks for that. The only downside to this is that the cables themselves are fairly short, but that's fine most of the time because your devices will likely be close to the monitor anyway. Speaking of build quality, the quality is excellent. It's mostly plastic with rubber feet on the retractable legs to help stabilize the monitor. Despite being made of plastic, it still feels very sturdy. The front of the monitor is solid glass and the bezels match the monitor perfectly: the side and top bezels are small and the chin has the largest bezel. The stand is interesting in that you can use this touchscreen monitor in either portrait or landscape orientation. In landscape mode, the hinge is very solid and you can use it from multiple angles. If you want to make it upright, just mount it with the software and then you can rotate the entire hinge 90 degrees. There is a one button latch that releases the retractable leg to support the monitor. I only tested the touchscreen briefly, and overall the monitor is fairly stable, although it depends on how hard you press the screen and where on the screen you press (top half or bottom half). It also depends on the type of surface the monitor is placed on. Overall I am very happy with the monitor and use it every day with no problems! Highly recommended. The only thing that could have been better is if it came with a VESA mount so I could mount it vertically next to my workstation!
