"It's the same size as my laptop screen and I can have both screens next to each other. ... Suddenly I realised how inconvenient is having large screen which is much further than laptop screen -- switching between screens is really painful for the eyes."
"So now I am considering purchase of another Arzopa scree, so i can work with three screens even in coffee shops."
"It can be powered & connected with a single usbc cable which is an advantage over a regular monitor"

"tbh, it wasn't noticeable to me, felt quite responsive."
"I got the 1080p for my deck and used for long time until I upgraded my gaming laptop."
"All the advantages of a larger display? ... I use it because there’s no TV in my room so if I want to game on a larger screen, this is my option. ... Some games just look and play nicer too and in full 1080. ... I also use it when I travel to family’s house (or anywhere) and the room doesn’t have a TV and I’d like to game larger display ... It’s also perfect for when I want to play co op with family or friends in a room and not use the main living room TV"

"Then they could not be powered at all, screen would show the azlrla logo and shut off."
"Had 2 Arzopas,. Both failed withing 6 months..."
"I have one, and I like it better than the Arzopa one, which I used to have. Just be careful, they tend to break easily; they're cheap electronics. ... Maybe not that much, but one died in two weeks, after filing a complaint I have another one, so far it's been alive for 2 months, we'll see"

"First the usb stopped working to carry video. Only mini hdmi worked."
"I have the 60hz 1080p monitor and I can't seem to get it working with only a usb-c cable... i have to power the monitor first. With my phone it's fine so I'm not sure what the issue is"

"Truly awful washed out colours"
"If you use one where the monitor doesn’t get enough power, when you try to max the brightness the display will restart. You won’t be snake to go above a certain brightness."

r/buhaydigital • Portable Monitor suggestion ->Hoping to get an Arzopa from FB Marketplace tomorrow for 35 quid. Think there's a warranty too. Looking good!
r/digitalnomad • Between these two portable monitors, please help! ->I love mine, but recently I found out it won't play full HD content from one particular platform because it isn't HDCP compliant. A big blow. There is no HDMI, just a USB Micro B. Fine for YouTube, Netflix and Amazon but for this one platform - Stan (in Australia) - it just won't. I have an Asus ZenScreen but not a high-end one, and I got it long before Stan acquired the English Premier League (my sole reason for having the subscription!!). Perfect for everything else, just not this. So now I need to buy a new one with HDMI. I've gone for an ARZOPA A1. Arrives tomorrow. Just something to consider when checking the specs..
r/Workspaces • For the people who have a portable monitor as a second monitor, was it helpful? ->ARZOPA Portable Monitor 15.6'' FHD 1080P - Ultra-Slim Portable Laptop Monitor with Kickstand - IPS Display for PC, MAC, Phone, Xbox, PS5 - USB C & HDMI Connectivity - A1 I have managed to get 2 of the above monitors on special sales In the $60 price range. I can plug USB c to c from the deck to the monitor, an plug the deck charger into the other c port on the monitor. This lets you charge the deck and power the monitor. It works decently well for me
r/SteamDeck • Budget portable monitor recommendations? ->I move mine between my Big Screen TV. (ok, its a mid size these days at 55 in.) My Desktop PC Monitor (a nice ultra wide) With HDR and all the fancy stuff that I really cant tell if its working or not. And recently I have a small 'portable' monitor 15" i picked up for $60 on amazon prime days. The portable monitor is interesting in how it works. I plug the USB C power brick from the Deck into one USB C port on the monitor. I then use a USB C To C "Video" capable Cable from the Deck to the Monitor. I then have the Deck working on the monitor (and charging) Without a Dock at all. Which is really sort of handy when traveling. The Monitor fits in my rather large lunch box. :) The Single Power Supply powers the monitor and Deck. NO DOCK NEEDED. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CH9WTW56 ( I got it on sale for like $80) A slightly smaller one i got on sale a few weeks later. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CH9XW8RK I am currently using one as a second monitor for my Desktop PC. I am trying to figure out how to mount it to the side of my PC case, or somehow fit it INSIDE the case behind the glass panel. Which would be neat. But I cant get the cables routed. :) Makes me wonder when there will be Video cards with USB C outputs. So, Game Night = Big TV Gaming In the Game Room = PC Monitor. On the Go/Work/Camping = Portable Monitor.
r/SteamDeck • Best Monitor to Use in Conjunction with Docked Steam Deck? ->Mine is a cheap 1080p model (Azorpa A1). It cost me like 76 €. The video is not great, but definitely not terrible (I've seen terrible screens, and this is not one of them). But the build quality... it trumps all portable monitors I've seen. They have a slightly larger model that has much better specs (100% sRGB, and 144Hz), the Arzopa Z1FC. If I had to buy a new one, I'd buy that one. No questions asked.
r/MiniPCs • Anybody using a "portable" monitor as a full-time, primary monitor with your Mini PC? ->Arzopa. That's the brand. (I have pretty much this: https://www.amazon.ca/ARZOPA-Portable-Kickstand-Computer-External/dp/B0CH9XW8RK/). 1080p, has 2x USBC ports and an HDMI port, comes with all the cables you need, you can functionally watch/play stuff on it while it passes power through to your deck to keep that topped up as well. I use it when I travel and am in hotels and it's a treat.
r/steamdeckhq • Anyone use a portable monitor with their steam deck? ->tbh, it wasn't noticeable to me, felt quite responsive. About the only thing I'd say is to split the audio/video, I had the audio continue to output via the deck's speakers as they were significantly better than the ones built into the monitor.
r/steamdeckhq • Anyone use a portable monitor with their steam deck? ->I recently bought a 15.6 portable screen for that purpose. It's thin and light, turns on with just an usb cable. I just put in my backpack and go. It makes all the difference to my work as well.
r/digitalnomad • How do you deal with working with a single small monitor? ->YAS! finally someone asked this question! I have a portable setup (with m2). here's the display i use: [Arzopa A1 Travel Monitor | 15.6” FHD 1080P Display](https://www.arzopa.com/collections/monitors/products/a1-15-6-fhd-1080p-portable-monitor). It's a amazing combo, tho it was not cheap. I think its a fair trade. And with Better Display, Mwah amazing! (also, i got it from amazon.)
r/macmini • Mac mini + portable display ->Also, now after me my dad is getting one (the same one) for his new m4 😁.
r/macmini • Mac mini + portable display ->I bought the 15.6" Arzopa, decent enough screen and came with 3 separate cables which was good. Also it was handy to have a built in kick stand. It can be powered & connected with a single usbc cable which is an advantage over a regular monitor. I didn't however feel safe just throwing it in my bag like you can with a laptop and couldn't find a good case that would be compatible, so didn't end up taking it with me regularly. I found myself getting used to just using one screen to be honest. Even though I normally use 3 screens in my home office...
r/digitalnomad • Traditional Monitor vs. Portable Monitor ->My arzopa 15.6” is fine with most USB ports on desktop PCs. You’re asking about USB 5v power therefore you should be talking about power not USB 3 which is a data spec.
r/homelab • Portable Monitor Powered By Single USB 3 Port (0.9 Amps at 5 Volts) ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
