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

The 16 inch 1366 x 768 USB monitor (AOC e1659Fwu) has been working great for years. It's slim, with a neoprene sheath and kickstand. For work I have a second screen to allow active work on one screen, procedure, email or remote screen on another. anything. This monitor has a lower resolution, so I have to scale down some elements to fit or move them around. In Windows, you can also shrink this extended screen. The AOC monitor displays images, text and films perfectly. So I bought an AOC…

Update 2: AOC got back to me. Their official answer was "Brightness/Color and Portrait mode don't work on Windows 10." Given that Windows 10 has been the current version of Windows for a number of years and they only released this monitor in May. You should probably place this constraint in a prominent place. Update 1: I have contacted Displaylink (driver manufacturer) and AOC regarding brightness/rotation issues. AOC has not returned to me yet. but display link is there. They told me that…

I bought this because I'm traveling for work and working with multiple windows on a laptop sometimes sucks. It has made my life away from work so much better and overall I am very happy with the monitor. There are a few things that make me wonder if I should have bought Asus, but if this thing doesn't fail I'll keep it to myself. very restrictive. You need a device with a USB-C connector AND it must support "alternate mode" for video transmission. You CANNOT use this with a USB power adapter or

I think a lot of reviewers are confusing "portable monitor" with "tablet". Yes, modern portable monitors are more resistant to damage. But many of the reviews are about a device that you can throw in a car and put a shopping bag on top of it. This is one of AOC's first attempts at a portable monitor. If you keep that in mind and treat it LIKE YOUR DESKTOP monitor, you'll be fine. Don't pack it in an overstuffed backpack. If you're putting it in a car, place it on the floor away from other items

Ooooooo. when to start First I googled for several hours to get this working. And you can get it working with more research, but I hope I'll save you some trouble. For reference, I'm using Mac OS Mojave 10.14.6. Before we talk about the driver needed, although the AOC website says you don't need drivers if you have a Mac, let's talk about the USB situation. As such, it comes with a branched USB cable. There is a very short USB cable and a longer one that splits in two. If your Mac is fairly…

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…

Shame on you, AOK. You promised that the monitor will automatically switch from landscape to portrait mode when the monitor is rotated - THIS IS WRONG. There are instructions in the user manual (by the looks of it) that don't make any sense at all - it says to disable auto-rotate and then enable hit again. AS? There is no pivot setting anywhere. The incorrect auto-rotate is the reason for the 3 stars. Also, the installation was a bit tricky and during the installation I got a warning that the…

I travel a lot and need two screens. These are definitely durable. I've dropped them a few times and they haven't cracked or broken. I've had them for a little over 8 months. I didn't pack them in my suitcase but they pack easily in a bag with a laptop. They are light. Everything is plastic outside, but very durable. I would recommend them to any other portable display. They flicker sometimes, but they're not meant to be on all the time like a regular desktop screen. Just turn them off when not

The monitor is VERY light and works great once the software is installed. The problem I have is that it was bought for use with a work laptop that I don't have admin rights on and until you install the software it's just a fancy paperweight. Overall a small issue that won't affect many. By the way, a USB cable is included, but it is not very long. Depending on where you plan to install it, you may need a longer cable. It also comes with a protective storage/carrying case which is nice.

I bought this monitor in August 2019 as part of my mobile office. It is lightweight and only requires one cable for power and display. I've used it on 3+ computers between my work and my PCs. It is a plug-and-play device that requires no software downloads to use. I would give this monitor five stars for the above reasons EXCEPT for having to replace this monitor every year. Yes, that means I've had 3 replacements, or FOUR monitors total, over the course of 3 years. After about a year, the…

I bought this to use as a second monitor when someone else in our family uses our second full size monitor dock. I have Windows 10 on work laptops and Windows 11 on my laptop and tablet at home. This monitor works great with both - just plug and play. The image quality is okay considering the price. I wish it had some buttons to adjust video settings like color and contrast. I'm sure there is a way to do this with the software they provide, but I haven't taken the time to figure it out. The…

Works great with my Acer Chromebook. Unpacked, plugged into my Chromebook, pressed the AOC power button and it's immediately ready for use. How everything should be.

It's great!.but. Do not download AOC drivers. They haven't been updated for a long time and will mess up your Windows 10 or 11. It works great without them.

Once installed, this small monitor is perfect as a second screen if you don't want to spend too much money on a Bluetooth monitor. Unfortunately Mac doesn't work as plug n play when you connect a monitor and you have to download the driver and change some settings which can be done in 10 minutes. Everything works perfectly!
