"As to fragility.. my current monitor I used on a motorcycle tour, and 9 months living out of a backpack at this point. I think it's holding up fine."
"Crushed it, broken bezel, smashed in aluminum housing on two corners, head and shoulders shampoo ruptured all over it. Dropped it. ... Still works great."
"The portable travel monitor travels super well ... I spent probably 2 months traveling/living out of hotels this year between work and pleasure."

"I use a 15" portable Asus USB monitor on my Studio as the third monitor. Run FCP in the 2 desktop monitors. The USB for anything else. Works great."
"Portable monitors are "low quality" if you're, idk, a photographer or video editor that needs high quality color grading. But if your job is answering emails and creating spreadsheets, the difference won't be decipherable."
"Very good screen"

"The ASUS I thought was gonna be handy with the threaded 1/4-20 on the back to mount with tripods and stuff, but it doesn't work since the thread mount is so shallow that the monitor just spins on most mounts/not deep enough to "lock in" unless you have the ability to shorten the thread length (like on a cold shoe mount or something)."

"It has 15,6" and proportion is 16:9 so there is some difference there, because MacBook has a proportion of 16:10."
