Review on AOC E1659Fwu 1366X768 Brightness 3 0 Powered USB Hub, Portable, Wall Mountable, Ultrawide Screen, ‎E1659FWU, LED by Jacob Watson

The comments in the cable and connector reviews are scattered throughout the card and don't mention any model numbers. There are THREE different variations of this display, so reviewers need to be specific about what they bought. I purchased the I1659FWUX 1080p model in November 2022. This variant has a USB 3.0 type A connection on the back. (Not to be confused with the I1601FWUX model, which has a USB-C connector.) The I1659FWUX comes with a cable that has USB 3.0 Type-A connectors on both ends and a USB Type-A connector on one end supplied with additional USB cables when the main connection is not sufficient. My main monitor is also a USB 3.0 hub. I have an I1659FWUX connected to this hub and it seems to be getting enough power that way. I've had other devices that weren't happy with the performance delivered through this hub, so I felt the I1659FWUX was somewhat low on power consumption. In Windows 11, I think it's best not to install any drivers or utilities for this monitor. As it turns out, Windows 11 can detect it and run normally without drivers or third-party software. All display settings available in Windows 11 for displays will work with this monitor. When Windows 11 was first discovered, it wanted to apply 125% scaling to the display. I changed it back to 100% for my own scaling. However, 125% was definitely more pleasing to the eye and I might consider visiting again. Not much to talk about. The thing just works. This is a fantastic size if you want to place an app on a second monitor and remove it from the main display. I mainly use it for Spotify (which I use during my workday) or for Teams or Zoom when I'm in video conferences. I attached the display to a desktop clamp monitor arm using a Vesa mount. It's bigger than my main display. The 1080p model of the I1659FWUX has an IPS display, while the 1366x768 model is listed with a lower quality TN panel. I don't see any reason to switch to a 1366x768 model right now. The $25 savings over the I1659FWUX isn't worth it. I don't use this monitor for photo editing or anything color sensitive, so I didn't bother to check dynamic range or anything like that. Without any picky analysis, this is a beautiful, clear, bright and colorful display. I don't feel like it's very different in character from my main IPS display (which is calibrated). Anyone who has the opportunity to use a second monitor of this size will not regret it. Working with a USB cable without other cables is awesome.
