This is for people who need a second screen but can't drag a regular monitor around. It's 16 inches, about the size of a laptop screen, and runs entirely off a USB-C cable plugged into your laptop — no wall power needed. Fold-out stand attached, fits in a backpack. The whole point is portability without being useless.
The screen is sharper than most laptop displays and refreshes 120 times per second, which means smooth scrolling and window-dragging that doesn't feel laggy. The extra vertical space from the slightly taller 16:10 shape helps when you're working on documents or code. It's bright enough to use in a lit room, and colors look fine for everyday work.
There's a mini-HDMI port if you need to plug in something that isn't USB-C, like an older laptop or a game console, but you'll need to power it separately for that.
