Dual-monitor office setups have spoiled us, and it’s easy to see why — a second screen practically doubles your productivity. Especially with a job like mine (when you scope out great products all day), it helps to have a second screen to make sure you get all the information right. If you’re on the go, it’s not always possible to keep another display — unless it’s a portable monitor. Now you never have to bid adieu to convenience.
ARZOPA
This 15.6-inch display is plug-and-play, works with almost any system, and can even be used as an external screen for the Nintendo Switch.
Why is this a good deal?
You don’t realize how much time you spend switching between windows until you don’t have to anymore. This monitor lets you keep everything visible, and at $76, it’s one of the lowest prices we’ve ever seen. It’s also a bargain compared to other portable monitors that start at $130 and go up from there.
Why do I need this?
The Arzopa is a small, easily portable screen that can be propped up with a kickstand. It displays at 1080p resolution and a 178-degree viewing angle. There are also multiple display modes to choose from, including duplicate mode (which shows what appears on the main screen), extend mode and second-screen mode. It weighs just 1.44 lbs and is only 0.35 inches thick at its largest point.
Worried about getting scratches on the monitor? Never fear — it comes with a leather smart cover that protects the screen when not in use. You can throw it into your bag alongside your laptop and not worry about damaging the case. It’s a great way to display more content in either landscape or portrait mode, and you can even use it as a way to play your Nintendo Switch on a bigger screen without using the dock.
What reviewers say
“I work from home and my company sent me a big monitor to use with their laptops, but my office is in the basement. Sometimes I like to work on my dining table where there’s lots of natural light and I’m surrounded by my cats and dog, but being on a laptop – multitasking or having two tabs pulled up can get frustrating and difficult to work with. This is where this extendable monitor comes in EXTREMELY handy! It comes with a magnetic cover that also acts as a stand. It truly is plug-and-play with no charging required. It is so inexpensive for what it offers, and is incredibly easy to set up and start using,” one user raved.
“So I needed an at home work monitor that would fit in my small New York studio apartment/desk/work from home space. This thing is great! It has a built-in speaker which is awesome because my MacBook speaker is actually damaged right now,” said another shopper. “It’s very bright and very light and compact and easy to travel with. So far I have had no issues and I don’t expect to.”
Another customer wrote, “I wish it came with some kind of cover, because it’s pretty big but very thin. I would worry about just sticking in in my laptop bag by itself.” (Note: The top-selling TedNetGo laptop/monitor sleeve is a great option, if you need a case, and it’s just $10.)
