Good picture. However, this is not enough to hold the monitor.

The picture looks nice. A bit grainy as it's only 1080p and the contrast doesn't match my Mac Pro XDR. I thought OLED would go with it. However, when connected to a single Thunderbolt 4 cable on my 2021 Mac Book Pro M1, only 20% brightness is supported. Minus one star because 1 USB-C is not supported and not advertised. It also makes white noise (fan). Not loud, but audible in a quiet room (my M1 Mac Pro isn't loud either, so I expect the monitor to be just as quiet). I have none of the above issues on my other brand 15.4" QLED portable monitor (there is only one issue with displaying 1080p on the M1 with no upscaling/detail). I also don't like built-in electronics as they seem slow and confusing. . Reconnection issues downgrades it from 3 stars to 2 stars and prompts my return as I don't have to disconnect and reconnect it multiple times after installing it and working for the first time.

Pros
