TL;DR: Vibrant 2.5K, pass-through charging; but finicky USB-C.

Op nag portable monitor din ako and 2 weeks ago lang ako nag research. Lumalabas na ang maganda ngayon na pwede sa shopee ay Arzopa Z1RC. Ang original plan ko ay yung Asus zenscreen pero sa specs daw sabi sa research ko di sya competitive sa price at ngayong 2025. Ang isa ko pang tinignan ay si AOC. Touch screen sya pero below specs din kay Z1RC. Si Z1RC more on productivity, meron syang counterpart sa Arzopa nakalimutan ko yung model. Anyway few things to ask lang Saan mo gagamitin? Oo like pairing sa gaming rig pero like what exactly? Supported ba ng pc mo yung USB A to C? If sa GPU mo isa lang ang HDMI mo kailangan mo ng converter. Anong device pang gagamit mo?

I bought myself the 16" Arzopa Z1RC and for the price it's a remarkable addition to my setup

I also have the Arzopa Z1RC. Camera bags were too expensive for me so I bought a knockoff pelican case instead tho i'm trying to sell it cos i rehoused my setup to a sub-3L case after that. All of these fit in my Black Diamond STreet Creek 24L backpack: SFF PC Arzopa Z1RC Eweadn Tank 68 Crack edition(very heavy mind u) Beyer dt 880 14inch laptop mouse usb hub dji mic I'm also looking at a hardshell type bag. check out the company called Bange Their are also chinese knockoffs for them that offers more capacity.

I have had a few. Had a couple Asus models, when my last ones screen cracked during travel I bought the ARZOPA 16" 2.5K Portable Monitor, 2560x1600. It’s cheaper and better quality than the Asus. Just wish it came with a protective cover, but am using the old Asus one.

I have Arzopa Z1RC (similar specs to yours but 60hz) and I love it. Its dimension perfectly matches with my Macbook Pro 16”. I generally use my Macbook with stand and I put the monitor above keyboard so It stays below the Macbook’s display. To correct the angle I made some supports from paper towels to put between the monitor and the speakers. Power usage is around 5-8w depending on brightness level https://preview.redd.it/82ff2ei6nxgg1.jpeg?width=4284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d186500ca2321a61a82cc75db08b5f558bb5d424

I returned an Azorpa same experience compared to my Samsung amoleds. I have a couple of Innocn oleds that look very similar to my Samsungs. The 13.3 are about $100, the 15.6 $150. You can't correct that monitor to get even close.

Update. I’m always anal about best bang for buck and eventually got the Arzopa Z1RC. It’s 16inch 2.5k 60hz. Available on Aliexpress for roughly €100 but I wanted it sooner so bought it through the Arzopa website with their starter discount code to total €142. Monitor arrived today and I am really impressed with the build quality. Picture is extremely clear and it’s working as expected.
