💻 COOLHOOD Ultrawide Portable Monitor with 17.3" Screen, 1920X1080MP, 60Hz Refresh Rate, Blue Light Filter, and Super Thin Design Review

TL;DR - Well packaged - Great colors - Helps a lot with on-the-go performance - Use the included USB-C to USB-C cable (or replace with a 3.1 compatible cable) - Slim and durable I'm I love to travel a lot and I just work from different locations as my tech job allows me to work remotely full time and I wanted to try this as part of my mobile office setup. Wow what's the difference, I'm used to having two monitors at home but having them everywhere is amazing. I was at my parents' house for a…

A portable monitor can be a really good thing, especially if you have old eyes like mine. Keep this in mind when you open the box and take out the instruction manual. Tiny tiny writing that is hard to read without a magnifying glass if you have eyes as old as mine. Well, that's not such a big problem since magnifying glasses are almost everywhere. There are two USB-C ports on the right edge of the monitor, each of which can be plugged in for power. When I first powered up the monitor, it took…

This review is for 15.6 inch Portable Laptop Monitor, Ultra Slim Travel Monitor with Built-in Speakers and Metal Body, USB-C Second Monitor, Gaming Monitor for MacBook/Phone Xbox PS4 PS5 Switch 1080P HDR IPS screen. Arrival: Monitor came in a very attractive box and was well protected, complete with two interface cables, power cord, power adapter and instructions. The monitor itself measures 14 x 9 x 1/2 inches and all other dimensions and controls were as published. The monitor was tested on a

This is SO cool, I love huge screens (12.9 iPads, 16 MacBooks) but the 17.3 beats any backpack I have. So while it's lighter than my MacBook Pro, its size makes it pretty awkward to be portable. Where can I find a 17.5" backpack? That's why I'm giving 4 stars. I'm also giving 4 stars because the brightness isn't very bright. I would have liked a brighter screen. For comparison, that's about the fifth tick the brightness of my MacBook. Does the screen itself have an odd tint too? I know it's a…

The Coolhood 15.6-inch 1080P HDR IPS Portable Monitor is a great monitor for almost any use that doesn't require high quality audio at high volume. Such a thin body just can't deliver the high quality sound needed for music or other important audio signals. The maximum achievable volume is also somewhat lacking. This shouldn't be taken as a huge criticism of this excellent monitor. For almost any business need, such as meetings, spreadsheets, word processing, and even CAD work, audio should be…

It's a great second screen to take with you on the go or just use with your laptop. It should fit a 17 inch laptop perfectly. Overall, it's slightly larger than my current 15.6-inch HP notebook, but it's almost the same size as my old 15-inch Dell notebook. So if your laptop bag fits an older 15-inch model, or almost any 17-inch model, there's a good chance this monitor will fit in the same bag as your laptop (it fits mine). In terms of weight, the panel is not very heavy, but it isn't either…

I'm hesitating between three and four stars for this, but in the end I only chose it because they finally have the right control over a portable monitor. Love the fact that they use multiple buttons instead of that awful toggle switch. However, it is important to know that the image quality achieves three stars at best. If you're a regular computer user you'll be fine, but if you're really into video then you won't like this monitor. And it's truly a portable monitor that can be used with a…

This portable monitor is big. It's the same size as two iPad Airs side by side. I've attached a photo of the monitor below, with a 14-inch Macbook Pro above it, and a 10.86-inch iPad Air above it. However, it really is an incredibly useful presentation tool. I'm on the road for work and often have to demonstrate something, and not every conference room has a projector or television. Or sometimes the settings are missing and using a TV or monitor is not practical. Now I can present my work…

The screen has small bezels which means it doesn't take up more space than necessary, the anti-glare screen gets bright enough. The package includes 2 USB C-to-C cables, as well as an HDMI cable and a 18W PD charger. There isn't much padding in the box that the display comes in. Not sure if this is exclusive to my device, but the top left corner flickers when using a USB-C cable for video input. The display works great using the HDMI input and I used the display with the included power adapter.

I use my laptop for a variety of programs for both work and personal use. Sometimes it's useful to have a second display so I can see all my work at once. This portable monitor is really big and able to meet all my needs. The display is great with clean lines and beautiful colors so I don't have to worry about whether I can see things clearly or not. It's easy to carry and fits in a laptop bag next to my laptop. It's very quick and easy to set up, which I really appreciate.

This is a great 17 inch display for mobile gamers. The magnetic case and included stands are pretty good too, and the connection to a PC or vape deck is 1 cable! Just a Thunderbolt cable and you're done (I think a USB-C with display-out support would work too). The screen is bright! Slim and looks high quality. I just wish it had a touchscreen and a built-in metal/aluminum kickstand on the back like the others. 4k would be a nice addition too! Overall this is still a great display for my budget

COOLHOOD Portable Laptop Monitor 17.3 Inch 1080P FHD USB-C Laptop Monitor HDMI Computer Display HDR IPS Gaming Monitor with Smart Cover and Speakers Travel Monitor for Mac Laptop Phone PS4/PS5: Excellent Large Truly Portable Monitor, unless you rely on it for serious color-critical work. To put it bluntly with some settings, the colors are pretty decent. And the brightness isn't bad if you turn it on and enable HDR. The image (after fine-tuning) is excellent for most tasks. I am a commercial…

The case that comes with this monitor protects very well and is comfortable to carry when I carry it from place to place. I noticed that even the cables come in reusable cases which is awesome! I don't particularly like messy bundles of cables.[ Summary ]This is my favorite portable monitor. I have several and have tested more. The colors are beautiful and with well-defined edges. The movement is smooth, the declared refresh rate is maintained. It performed well in the performance tests I ran…

I got this portable screen as an extra display for my daughter. It's 17.3 inches, larger than most laptop screens. It works well with your iMac and the resolution is high enough to fit next to the main display. This allows her to drag objects around without jumping with the cursor. The display is low thin and comes with a nice flip case. It can be folded into a stand. We only operate it with a USB cable. It serves as a power source and data transmission. This results in a cleaner setup with…

To be honest I knew it could be big but my goodness! Not to say it's huge, but it's definitely bigger than I'm used to. This is definitely a step up as there are more options with this one. More functions and features. I've been having a great time with it since I've had it. As it's also perfect for gaming, I'm a gamer, it's perfect for me and my needs. I haven't had any problems since I received it. Just plugged it in and it worked great. Next to the stand, I would like to list the stand…

I didn't expect the resolution to be this good on this monitor. I said good, I meant fantastic. This is a true IPS monitor with an amazing viewing angle that is very easy to see even at an angle of almost 90 degrees. The colors are beautiful and vibrant and I had no problem connecting to my mini computer that I bought it for. One small issue is that the brightness slider on the side feels a bit flimsy, making it easier to set and forget, for example. It comes with all the cables you need to get

This is perfect when my daughter is visiting the house and needs to work or my husband needs to take his laptop to work. It comes with all the necessary cables and connects quickly to my main laptop. It was a little difficult to figure out how to stand out, but it stands up pretty well and protects the monitor when not in use. The sound was ok, as was the display. For the price, this is a good little secondary monitor.

I'm glad I chose this portable monitor. It works not only for me, but also for my children. It's very light, which is nice. It comes with a stand built into the lid. The picture quality is excellent, very clear. I highly recommend it, especially for this great price.

Very good product. Nice box and packaging very similar to an Apple product. Includes 2 USB-C cables and one HDMI cable, plus a power adapter. I was able to connect a USB-C to my MacBook and the monitor immediately lit up and was recognized. The case works well as a stand and protects the monitor when travelling. Very happy with this purchase!
