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.
