I use an Asus ZenScreen MB16AMT. It has a built in battery, touch support, and is 15.6", and gives you 4+ hours of use. I've used it in flight before to watch movies. But it is expensive, and given today's cramped planes, a smaller monitor (maybe 13.3") might work better. You could probably find a reasonable cheap monitor and a 20000mah battery pack would work great.

I really would recommend a monitor with a built in battery. I've got the Asus ZenScreen MB16AMT - touch support, battery that can last 4 hours, speakers, mini-hdmi and usb-c.

I've got an asus zenscreen MB16AMT. I love using it as a giant 15.6" tablet with my s24 ultra. Touch support, speakers built in, and a 4 hour battery so the phone doesn't have to power it. But like other monitors, it does have a "chin" section along the bottom that isn't monitor (power and menu buttons are down there). But its still pretty awesome with dex.

I've got the Asus ZenScreen MB16AMT. It has a 7800mah battery built in that gives you 4 hours of use on battery. 10 point touch support, speakers, usb-c or micro hdmi. I got mine in 2020 and still use it all the time. It makes are a very nice LARGE tablet. Its not cheap, but super versatile. Works on battery, or can be powered.

I've got the asus zenscreen MB16AMT which has touch, speakers (mediocre at best), and 4 hr battery built in. It does make for a nice large tablet. I got it in 2020 and still works great today. If you are looking for a tablet experience, go with the large monitor and get a good sized battery pack to power it - but that means you are tethered to both your phone and a chunky battery. If it is just going to sit on a desk, then the solution should work for you. Just don't expect great sound out of built in speakers. You definitely DO NOT want to pull power from your phone. Its just a bad idea and a monitor that size will drain it pretty quick, if it even can be powered by your phone. If you want to work more on-the-go anywhere, I would go with the lapdock format. I use my monitor when I'm commuting on the train, but sometimes I wish for the lapdock instead. But at a desk, the monitor with bluetooth keyboard and mouse are just perfect.

protoarc has a great selection of bluetooth keyboards and mice. As far as portable screens, the top of the line are Asus ZenScreens. There are also lower priced alternatives. I use a protoarc foldable keyboard, microsoft mouse, and an asus ZenScreen MB16AMT which has usb-c and hdmi, built in battery, 10 point touch, and speakers.

I use a portable monitor with a 4 hour battery built in. (Asus ZenScreen MB16AMT). Best thing ever! It doesn't drain your phone battery to power the monitor. Or for longer time, I'll use a usb-c hub and run both usb-c and hdmi to the monitor, and use a 45w PD adapter to power the hub, which keeps the monitor and phone charged.

they're a dime a dozen, but really I think any of those chinese 15.6" monitors work fine and dandy - I ended up getting two, a ARZOPA portable monitor and then an ASUS ZenScreen 15.6" I prefer the ARZOPA over the Asus. ARZOPA (or any of those crazy sounding companies) have usb-c and hdmi input, which is a plus. Other things I bought that I found kinda useful: \- Portable monitor stand: [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D2YCT3V7?ref=fed\_asin\_title](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D2YCT3V7?ref=fed_asin_title) \- Super portable laptop stand: [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B2WMTWTD?ref=fed\_asin\_title](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B2WMTWTD?ref=fed_asin_title) 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).

That's what I have, and I love it, and I spent probably 2 months traveling/living out of hotels this year between work and pleasure. The portable travel monitor travels super well, is a great size (I have the 15" one), and is very user friendly. I also travel with a bluetooth Logitech mouse that is like a decade old, but gets the job done and I prefer having on to using the trackpad on a laptop.

I bought a cheap ASUS zenscreen 1080p for about $150, and it's worked great. Image quality isn't beautiful or anything but it's fine for coding. If you're in video or photo I wouldn't recommend. I also use my ipad pro sometimes, but probably will leave the ipad pro home on the next trip -- the ipad with a cover and keyboard are a lot of weight. I think the asus zenscreen is quite a bit lighter, and it's a much bigger screen than the ipad.

Yeah, they're called portable monitors. They are usually USB-C powered, 1080p, and 14-17". Pretty easy to find, but save yourself some time and just look into the Asus Zen screen line.

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.

It's a 4 year old Asus USB A. The cable came with it and it's not HDMI at the other end (Or it is HDMI, just with different interface. ) It was not expensive and it super versatile. I also use it on MacBook Pro and a HP Windows laptop. Great investment as it still fits is a backpack along with whatever laptop. It's probably not what you want for gaming. But it's a GREAT accessory monitor. Unfortunately I can't give you exact model number today as I just moved yesterday and it's packed away at the moment. Also it's old enough I'm sure that exact model number isn't the same anymore. But don't overthink it. Just find one that says "works on Mac". The Studio will handle it just fine.

Follow up. ASUS no longer makes a USB A to micro HDMI. They use USB C with Display capability to their Micro HDMI port. The Mac Studio's USB C on the back handle this fine. They are display port capable. So yes, Asus Zenscreen Portable should be fine on your Studio. (Note it's now a touch screen as well. So undoubtedly more money than non-touch monitor) But shop around. It's not rare or complicated.

I used an ASUS ZenScreen for two years until it got broken thanks to the dumb security checks at a Vietnamese airport. Very good screen, recommend it, got a newer model after this one.

I can't recommend a specific one personally, but I would just recommend you get one that connects via HDMI, and not USB-C, as sometimes USB-C monitors require specific drivers which don't work with Linux. I have an ASUS Zenscreen for example that requires the DisplayLink software to run, which isn't compatible with Linux devices.

I have one of these. 100% recommend. Great viewing angles and no fuss. If I bought it again I would try to get one 16:10. Didn’t realize how much 16:9 bothers me. But I use it vertically anyway.

I use the Asus Zen Screen and it's been excellent. The first one that I got was a dud, wouldn't work over usb-c with the cable provided, but I returned it immediately and have had no issues with the replacement.

ASUS ZenScreen, Keychron Q1, Dell K512D. Then again, I don't carry much with me. If you're looking for lighter monitors, the Sony makes some lightweight ones like the Vaio Vision+. I could certainly lose a lot of weight with a different keyboard as well. This thing is about 1-2kg. If you're not picky with it, Logitech makes some nice, lightweight keebs. As for the mouse, I've been using this for at least 10 years (for gaming and professional use) and it's still running strong. Didn't really feel the need to replace it, and it's not heavy at all.
