Wow I am very impressed with this monitor for the price and the overall value. There were not very many options for a 17.3" 2.5k monitor. Sure there's some gripes I have with it, this certainly isn't a perfect monitor when it comes to functionality. So that's why I wanted to give a really honest review for those interested in purchasing one. The Good: 1. The screen size, the 17.3" vs the 16" is a huge difference and I was so glad that I opted for this size. There's another 16" 1080p that someone else uses and it is significantly smaller. There is slimmer profile options in this size but I like the thickness of this model moreso than the thinner versions. 2. Travel: I got this for travel and it fit perfectly fine into my large backpack that I pack my tech in. 3. Setup: The setup is very straightforward and the colors at first before turning on HDR are really not great. So make sure to either turn on HDR or custom set the settings to your desired color. 4. I/O or Ports: USB-C PD works perfectly on my M3 Pro MBP no need to use the power cable. HOWEVER when using Adobe programs I do opt to plug in the power supply. This has a full size HDMI port which was another big reason I chose this model, I just didn't want to have another adapter dongle for mini HDMI. I am using a 4k HDMI cable that's connected to my PS5. 5. Gaming: I was worried about two things here - this only being 60hz and the overall quality being 2.5k with my PS5 but after playing Jedi Survivor, Genshin, and Star Rail, it looks fantastic and glad that I didn't fork out double the price for the 4k versions. There's 0 noticeable latency with controller input and the environment colors and battling look great. The PS5 will make you calibrate the screen upon the initial plugin only and not anytime after. The Bad or The Meh: 1. The buttons on the side panel can be a bit frustrating to use sometimes but they all work and you don't really mess with them much. Switching inputs can be interesting BUT when I open my MBP it automatically turns on to correct input and same with the PS5. It is only when you want to change input after the fact that it can be a challenge pressing the correct buttons. 2. Magnet Strength - The magnet strength on the cover itself is just OK, I haven't had the screen fall using the cover but it does leave something to be desired. To fix this I just use my KABCON tablet stand and it holds it beautifully. 3. Smart Cover Protection - The protection is just OK, it will protect against scratches but not against crushing so be sure not to put it in a super stuffed backpack. I would suggest finding a zippered hard EVA case if they make one. 4. Mac screen compatibility - So this kind of caught me off guard but I know has some issues with the aspect ratio of this being 16:10. It scales natively to 1280x720 when I plug it in and the text is readable but everything is HUGE. When I change to 2560x1440 the text on the screen does some weird blurry crap. It's tolerable but it's not preferred so I switched back to 1280 x 720 and actually I don't mind it now since I don't have to sit so close to the screen. But I can see this being an issue for many people. Tips: 1. Get right angle HDMI and USB C adapters to use so the cords aren't sticking out awkwardly on the right side. This makes plugging in much easier and gives an overall cleaner look. You can see them in use in the photo. 2. Use a tablet stand - My recommendation is the KABCON tablet stand. Ive had it for years and it's very sturdy with many angle options. The build quality is really unmatched. It's not on a stand in the photos because my iPad is using it when I took the photos. 3. Cables - Use cables that are least 3ft. I have 6ft cables and this works out the best. Cord wraps will help organize things so it's not a big mess. Also I'm using a Thunderbolt 3 cable for MBP connection. Make sure you use the correct USB-C cables they are not all the same! For HDMI a 4k cable is probably overkill but better safe than sorry. In conclusion despite the minor gripes I am very satisfied with this monitor and have no remorse in purchasing it. The biggest factor will be how long it lasts. Ideally years would be nice but if I at least get two years out of it then it will have paid for itself. Can this be used as a main monitor for those looking to be budget conscious? YES this is very possible to use for that. Coming from a BenQ 32" 4k to this for travel I'd say this was a great and easy solution without much sacrifice. Also for console gaming this is an excellent choice you don't really need 120hz unless the actual game you're running supports it. So I highly recommend this product if it fits your wants and needs!!!

Great image, screen finish is matte, doesn't glare and very nice colors. Not perfect colors but very nice colors. Menu buttons same as the other monitors of this category a little complicated to figure out but ok once you "get it". It pulls between 1.5 and 2A of power, so I am running it from my laptop or my laptop's dock withiyt problems. the cover is good and it does have the vesa screws openings on the back. Feels solid. Lastly, its bigger than what it looks and thats a good thing but it is slim, the bezels are not think its just thiat it's big. Very recommended.

Packaging was not sufficient and the monitor was dead on arrival. My laptop connects to it and identifies the device as being connected, and even lets my cursor go off my laptop monitor onto the secondary monitor, but no image is displayed. The blue light is on. I have tried using the HDMI cable and the USB-C power cable, and I've tried the USB-C power/video/audio cable, and that does not work. Don't bother buying. Also tried on my phone and there still was no connection. Dissapointed. Edit: the company reached out and refunded me and gave me a new one. It works. But they're falsely advertising it's 2.5k, when it is just regular 2k. Personally I don't mind it being 2k, because that's a more standard aspect ratio, but the picture and description lie. The color is pretty decent actually. HDR seems to be funky and not worth using because it caps your brightness to 50%. Freesync doesn't seem to work. I'll have to keep my review at 1 star purely for the fact that they're lying about their product. Otherwise, it's a decent monitor and I'd give it 3.5 stars.

This is one of those items where I really wanted to give it 5 stars. Worked without issue with my M2 MacBook Pro while traveling. I take away a VESA star because I bought a stand to use and the screws provided with the stand for the VESA holes don't quite fit. And no where is the screw size documented. Support told me M4 8mm. Updated 12/31/2025. I have owned mine since August 2024, so over two years as of this update. I now use it with a MacBook Pro M4 16" laptop without any issues. No drivers are required. I use it only when I travel and it travels in a 16" laptop sleeve in my suitcase or well packed in a duffel bag. I have broken monitors before while traveling so I know better. I take a star off because when I pulled this monitor out on my vacation 2 weeks ago, the smart cover was demagnetized! Using the Smart Cover to prop up the screen without magnetization is tricky. I do have a multi-monitor stand for traveling but only bring it when I know I will be doing serious work requiring multiple monitors. I didn't have it for this vacation.
