UPERFECT Truely 4K Computer Monitor, 15.6" UHD FreeSync 100% AdobeRGB 450 Nits Brightness HDR IPS Speaker Eye Care Game Display 2 Type-C Full HDMI for Laptop Phone, VESA & Smart Case

UPDATE 06/02/2025 - All the issues I previously described were because of the PD port. Apparently, the electrical charge from the PD port to the other USB-C port interferes with the display's touch function and is a charge that the Galaxy S25 Ultra sees as dangerous to the phone. So, the only way to charge the phone while you are using it is wirelessly. My wireless charger does not charge fast enough, and after watching the video for a couple of hours, the phone battery is very low. Again, the only way to use the touch feature on the display with the Android phone is to use only the USB-C cable that came with the display, and no other cable connections between them. Also, other USB-C cables will not transmit video. I can use a magnetic connection adapter on the end of the cable, and that is good because it is always how I charged the phone before all this. It must be a 24-pin connector.The worst issue is that I can't plug into the USB port on the monitor. Get an emergency message from the phone to unplug the charger. The monitor passes current from the PD port to the USB port to charge your phone. Nice feature if it doesn't blow up your battery. Another issue. Touch on the display does not work. I noticed that the instruction manual that came with the display admitted this was a known issue, and they think they have a patch, but they have not had time to get back to me. It won't matter if I can't use the USB port. I got it to work as a non-touch display, even with Dex using an HDMI to USB-C cable, and could use my phone as a touchpad, but I could do that with a non-touch display. I could charge my phone wirelessly and use the PD and HDMI ports on the display, but I bought a touch display. The third issue. Display either constantly disrupts Bluetooth on the phone to my ear buds, or completely disables my Bluetooth and forces sound through the display's internal speakers. Not good in a public place. I have scheduled a return. I'll have to pay more to buy a better brand.

I recently purchased the UPERFECT Portable Monitor, and it has quickly become a versatile and indispensable part of my tech setup. I took it on a trip to test it out, and it’s clear that this monitor offers an impressive mix of portability, functionality, and quality, making it a standout product for both productivity and entertainment.The touchscreen functionality is smooth and responsive, especially with Windows. What’s even better is that no drivers are needed—just plug and play. The touchscreen is perfect for scrolling through documents, using pinch-to-zoom, and navigating through apps, bringing a tablet-like experience to your desktop setup.When using it with Windows, you can easily configure the monitor to duplicate your screen or extend your desktop. The ability to rotate the monitor and set it to Portrait mode is particularly useful for reading full-length Word documents or PDFs. Pairing this with your landscape-mode laptop is a great productivity hack, especially when reading or editing long documents. The adjustable kickstand allows for tweaking the angle to maximize the use of this feature. It’s a thoughtful design that adds a layer of practicality to the monitor. I tested it with browsing the internet, reviewing Microsoft Office documents, doing some simple whiteboarding, and even played a round of Angry Birds with the touchscreen for input.The 15.6" FHD 1080P IPS screen is a joy to use. It delivers sharp, vibrant visuals, and with a 178-degree viewing angle, you get consistent image quality no matter where you’re seated. Whether I’m using it for work or entertainment, the screen never fails to impress. The brightness is sufficient for outdoor use, making it practical in a wide range of environments, although I wouldn't use it in direct sunlight. It was fantastic spending an office day out on the porch with dual monitors.One of the features I absolutely love is how well this monitor integrates with different devices. I’ve been able to use it with my iPad, and applications like Netflix seamlessly take advantage of the external display. Watching movies from my iPad or iPhone on a larger screen feels much more immersive, especially when traveling or lounging around the house. I also tried hooking this monitor up to my Steam Deck, and it worked perfectly—great for gaming on the go. The included HDMI cable worked with my HDMI output from my laptop as long as I separately provided power over USB-C to the monitor. This should make using it with other devices, such as a PlayStation or Apple TV/Roku/Firestick, as they don't support video over USB-C like the Steam Deck does. It would be a good option for those heading off to college, as they could use this monitor in many different ways whether at the dorm or library without taking up a lot of space.The built-in kickstand is another highlight. I've had other monitors come in an "iPad"-like leather folder that let you slightly adjust the angle when open. The problem is these tend to fall down easily and would certainly do so with a touchscreen. This one is solid and really supports using the screen as a touch input. The kickstand rotates to support both landscape and portrait orientations and has an adjustable length. It even has a color-changing LED light. You can choose a single color or let it rotate through different shades, adding a nice personal touch to the design. It’s a small detail, but it gives the monitor a bit of flair and makes it more enjoyable to use. The integration of inputs into the kickstand is brilliant. It keeps cables tucked away, resulting in a cleaner, less cluttered workspace. I love the single-cable solution when using USB-C for both video and power. It reduces the need for extra cords and makes the monitor incredibly easy to pack and transport.I also want to give a shout out to UPERFECT for their support. I reached out to them regarding a question I had on inputs. They responded quickly and were very focused on making sure my question was addressed to my satisfaction. When I glanced through the product manual, admittedly something I don't do often enough, I came across their clever support diagram. It really emphasizes how much they want to help you address any concern and are very customer focused. We've probably all dealt with some Amazon sellers who are less than helpful. Not a concern at all with UPERFECT as you can buy with confidence from them.Overall, the UPERFECT Portable Monitor is an excellent investment. It’s packed with features that make it versatile and easy to use across a variety of devices. Whether you need a second screen for work, a portable display for gaming, or a way to watch movies on a larger screen, this monitor delivers in every way. I highly recommend it for anyone in need of a reliable, high-quality portable monitor with touch input.

I tested this on an M1 Pro MacBook Pro 16 and it works really well though I did have to figure out a few things. If you use HDMI, you'll need additional USB-C power. It comes with a power block and two USB-C cables and one HDMI cable so you should be good to go, as long as you have power within the length of the cable. I will likely use my own cable for power that's longer as the places where I'd work tend to have more distance to the plug.When I tried to run it from the MacBook Pro without additional power, the monitor reset frequently so definitely run it with additional power unless your laptop puts out more than a MacBook Pro.I want to run this monitor at native resolution (4k) and macOS didn't offer that so I used a third-party program called EasyRes to force native resolution. The resolutions that macOS offers max out near HD.The speakers are weak. But it's light and thin so that's too be expected. I'd just use the MacBook Pro speakers in generalThere's no case or cover which was a disappointment so I'll have to look for one. I found a soft case for it that Amazon sells for $20. There are additional cases for less and more. The monitor does fit into the padded pouch of my Swissgear Carbon packpack and I'll just put the portable monitor in the case and then put the case in my backpack.
