Review on G-STORY G STORY Ultrathin Portable Direct Connected Compatible 15.6", 60Hz, 便携式, GSV56UM, HD, HDMI, 4K by Charles Ligon

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Nice and bright 4k display and decent speakers, but everything else needs work

Pros - bright screen (requires connection to a higher voltage or may need to connect both USB-C ports if using lower voltage) - very thin and light - speakers are either front facing or downward facing (better than aimed at). rear part like most portable monitors) Cons - requires a lot of power to work (previously I could only connect one USB port to my game console to turn it on, but now it takes at least 2) - auto-rotate feature cannot be disabled - only 2 tiny holes for the vesa mount (I had to search everywhere for screws that might fit and yet it's not as secure as a regular 4 hole vesa mount) - physical buttons and a fiddly scroll wheel (remote included helps, but the remote itself is finicky too) I also don't have touchscreen capability to work with my Samsung phone, or my PC. It was very easy to connect my previous portable monitor and use its touchscreen, but for some reason I can't get it to work. Disappointing as the touchscreen is a big selling point for this monitor.

Pros
  • 60 Hertz
Cons
  • Lower refresh rate
