Review on DUEX Portable Kickstand: Lightweight, Adjustable Brightness, 12.5" IPS Laptop Monitor - Second Screen, USB Connectivity, 1920X1080P, 60Hz by Todd Bartsch

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Great idea, bad execution.

I think I should start by saying that I had to return the first one I got because it didn't have software drivers and drivers to download. This in itself was a pain as the company is overseas based. Forget the nice ivy marketing. I really wanted this to work and I'm getting it to work, but it's not what I was hoping for. It's made from very thin materials, but proved too heavy to attach to a laptop. It's just too heavy for loops. It's ok, it comes with a stand! This stand is the thinnest POS I've seen and took about three months to complete. I have tried to get another one, even contacted the company but it seems they are overseas and cannot reply through the retailer. You can also just buy a monitor and plug it into your laptop unless you're constantly on the go. I was hoping to take it with me to meet clients, but it's too uncomfortable unless I attach it to the back of the laptop, which again is very heavy on the hinges. If you look at my photos you will see that I currently have it on a very crappy little iPhone stand until I find a better solution. Bad customer service. For this money you can buy another laptop.

Pros
  • The adjustable stand allows you to place it in any workspace.
Cons
  • Limited size options
