MAGICRAVEN Portable Monitor (01)

UPDATE: Monitor is dead after just 11 weeks of use. My computer sees the monitor, but the display is completely dark. DO NOT BUY.It's a decent monitor when offered at a reduced price. At full price, there are better options.First thing you need to know is the ports (USB-C and HDMI) are on the RIGHT side of the monitor. The pictures show them on the left. I really wanted the ports on the left, which is one of the reasons I ordered this monitor. But no, they are on the right. I made it work, but because of this, I almost returned the monitor immediately.Second, the "case" that comes with it is not very good. I have a smaller monitor, and the magnet in its case is superb. It almost doesn't feel as if there is a magnet in the case for this monitor. For a monitor that is supposed to be "portable", the case could be, and should be, better.Third, many of these monitors have a mini-HDMI port. This one has a full-size port. That's fine, but it's something you need to know.The screen is bright, clear, and a matte finish to avoid glare. There is no lighting flare around the edges. The bezel is reasonable thin, except for the bottom, which is expected.I decided to keep this because I lucked out and got it at an amazing price...compared to its contemporary. If I'd paid full price for this, I would have sent it back because of the port positioning and poor quality case. For what I need, it's good enough.

Have had just over three years. Use very rarely. Screen size and color are good, brightness is more than enough for me.Rating 3 stars because both USB-C ports have stopped displaying. Thought at first it was a connection problem, bought new cables and still nothing.HDMI still works and USB still charges, for now. But it’s a pain to have to have multiple cords running to and from laptop especially when working in often cramped travel situations anyway.

So far very impressed. This is the 17.3" 1080P Monitor. Using with my M4 Mac Mini, works well at 120Hz. 144 was a bit flaky, so moved it down. 1080P is fine for this size moinitor. Use it for documents and web browsing only, not a gamer.

I work from home with 2 extra monitors and bought this so for when I travel. But it works so well, I added it as a third monitor for my everyday set up. I haven't traveled with it yet, but it is very lightweight and easily fits in my backpack with my laptop. I had an issue after having it a little over 6 months, and since it was well beyond Amazon's return window, I reached out to Magic Raven, but honestly didn't expect much. But they quickly responded and made things right. Excellent customer service!

The image quality is very good on this display, better than my $1k gaming laptop that I am using it with. That being said, there is no stand included despite it being shown in every picture of the device. It very difficult to prop this up for use without a stand, it slides and falls over easily. Unless you have a plan for how to support it for portable use, you may want to try a different model that includes a built in stand and screen protector. I'm keeping it but I am not happy that it was pictured with a stand that is neither included nor available from the seller.
