💻 Certified Refurbished AOC E1659FWU-R Portable Monitor with 1366X768 Resolution and Brightness Level 3.0 Review

I work remotely from home but sometimes I need to work at another remote location to visit friends, family etc and I really need a second monitor (in addition to my laptop) to be efficient. Do you use it to monitor your computer, especially when you fly? To find a solution I googled portable monitors and this came up. After some research, this was the cheapest with the best reviews. I could buy it, refurbished by Revain, for $83. GOOD BUSINESS! I had some reservations because my work laptop…

I needed a second screen for work as I have been working remotely since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. I didn't want to spend a lot as I'm on a tight budget and just needed something that worked well to make my job easier. I found this refurbished product (I think it's basically like the item in the opened box) which I'm happy with as it's listed as checked and tested, everything works. The only difference between this and the new one is that it's about $15 less, doesn't include a…

It was pretty good while it lasted. Unfortunately, the screen in my backpack broke so I can no longer use it. Yet. Pros: Does what it's supposed to, probably lasts more than a few months if I don't crack the screen (it worked before it happened), good picture quality (although not something we're all used to) Cons: Any When I used my laptop unplugged, the screen went to sleep for some reason (not sure if it's a driver issue or something else). I wish there was a brightness/button adjustment…

I bought this product to have a small travel monitor (fits in my laptop bag). I had to have my own company to install the drivers. After installing the drivers, it was easy for me to connect to my laptop. It is ideal as a second display and serves its purpose perfectly! I also bought a case for it.

This monitor fits the bill. I got it for two reasons: First, my daughter's laptop screen broke so I wanted to set it up as a home computer. Second, I would like a portable monitor that I can take to meetings. It looks and works like new. One good thing for you is that my daughter's laptop doesn't have a USB 3.0 port and this monitor still works fine. (Actually I thought I'd have to return it as I didn't see 3.0 until after it shipped). I didn't even need the second USB port that comes with it…

It takes a little effort to get it working with my Windows 10 laptop. I had to download and install the driver, make sure the monitor was unplugged, restart my laptop, and then plug it in. Not exactly plug and play, but it works for what I need. It also requires two USB ports, so you may need a powered USB hub if you want to connect other devices alongside a monitor. Overall it does what I need for a reasonably priced second monitor and is very portable, about the size of my laptop but lighter.

While the monitor is good value for money and well suited for a virtual school, I was disappointed that you have to use two USB ports to power the monitor. I had to buy a USB hub to connect my monitor, mouse dongle, etc. Still a good product.

I bought 2 of these USB monitors for my 17 inch laptop. I had no problem setting them up on my HP laptop, plug and play for me. I particularly like the fact that they are USB powered and you don't have to plug them into an outlet, but of course if your laptop is unplugged battery life will be drastically reduced. The images are nice and sharp for what I use them for. (I've tried using a USB hub but only one monitor works so I have to use 2 USB ports to get both monitors working at the same…

This monitor is very handy and lifesaver. I've just started a master's degree and use it to have an extra screen when I'm in an online class or working on my homework. It is very easy to use, just plug and play. The only thing I don't like is that you can't change the brightness, it's a bit brighter than I'd like. It's not the thinnest monitor and I wish it came with a storage pouch.

This monitor is ideal for travel and home use. It's lightweight, about the size of my 15.6-inch HP laptop, and my backpack easily fits in both. No need to carry a heavy power cord around - just a USB Y-cable that I use everywhere: in restaurants, cafes, hotel rooms, even sitting in my chair at home. The monitor requires two adjacent standard USB ports to power the monitor. So get a one-to-many USB adapter if you don't have enough USB ports and need capacity for a wireless mouse. keyboard…

I couldn't wait to check it out as I was hoping it would turn out the way I had envisioned it. I wanted to set up 3 screens that are mobile friendly. these screens are the answer! That's easy! The screens have a USB connection, not a power plug. Just plug them into your USB ports and you're done. There was no software download for my 2019 HP laptop. I have now set up 3 screens for easy mobile use. Laptop in the middle, two new screens bought here on the sides. You don't need a separate power…

A very useful tool when you are on the go and need a portable lightweight monitor. I've been using my monitor for over two and a half years now and haven't had any major problems. The only thing I would add is a setting to adjust the brightness and color temperature as this is not adjustable even after the drivers are installed and the monitor does not follow the laptop's main display settings.

I bought a refurbished monitor as a second monitor to work with my MacBook Air and it works really well! The resolution isn't the best, but I only use it for paperwork. To be honest I don't understand how difficult it was for some people to set it up. Downloaded Displaylink for Mac OS from their website, plugged the monitor into my laptop (you only had to use one port, although the instructions advised you sometimes need to use two as one port doesn't provide enough power on some laptops), my…

The monitor is lightweight and looks nice. It doesn't work well with a Mac, so if it's a Mac, if you have one then look for something else. You have to be very knowledgeable about computers to even get them to work. I had to buy a multi USB connector and then search the internet for tutorials from other users on how to download and install drivers specific to my computer model. This then slows down the computer and makes me

I bought this while traveling for business and it was very helpful to have a second monitor and it works great. I highly recommend

I broke my work, gave away a second screen and had to buy it myself. This one is bulkier than the one it replaced, but the screen is bigger too. I love that it has 2 USB sockets so you can figure out which one works with your computer. I wish it had a travel screen protector. I had an old laptop bag that works.

I bought this refurbished product because I am traveling and need a monitor for my work. So far it works as advertised but given the history of this model I didn't want to buy it new. I will withhold my reviews until I see that this product can withstand the rigors of travel and use. (Updated) This product is not recommended for working from home or sharing presentations or documents over the network via Teams or Zoom etc. The monitor's refresh rate is sufficient for indoor presentations, but…

game changer. Having two screens for productivity, but being able to move those screens around is amazing. I really love this product. I plugged it in and it worked. It requires 2 USB sockets so I bought a USB connector and used it as a mini dock for the whole setup (with a mouse). This is necessary so that I can work from anywhere.

I bought 25 screens for my team for the budget season. They loved them and worked great on every computer. You can connect with or without a cable. My team uses it all the time as a second screen when traveling or even at the desk. Very important!

I was looking for a monitor twice the price when I came across this portable monitor. After reading the reviews I thought it might be worth a try. Got the monitor today. It is very light which makes it ideal for travel. He's a bit fat, but that's not a problem. The picture is clear and the stand is solid. The kit included a cable that I plugged into the laptop and the monitor immediately loaded the drivers and started working. I can extend my laptop screen and use it as a dual monitor. All in…
