ASUS - ZenScreen MB16AMT

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'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.

During COVID, my work gave us a few hundred to improve our home office that we could keep even if we left the company. I got one of the Asus zenscreen things, like a laptop in a sense but is touch, micro HDMI, and USB c (dp). I use it on my Chromebook, regular laptop, and even my mobile devices. heck, I even played consoles on it! Only thing that somewhat annoys me is that it's only 1080p60 but I can't really complain since it was cheap as it was just over the max budget my work gave so I had to pay for what was over. If I had the same opportunity today, I would get a similar style (builtin battery/truly portable) but I would focus more on the resolution, even if I had to go with some random Amazon brand. Don't get me wrong, I do love that it's touch+name brand but I feel it would be better for me if it had a larger resolution. Though if cost is a non-issue to you, the zenscreens are really nice.

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.

Asus ZenScreen 13 or 15, 13 is super light, 1 cable (powered by USBC) Quality isn’t great - not for gaming but prioritize which content you want on your laptop and which can be on the secondary.

+1 love my Zenscreen

I use it all days every days for code!

I have a 15inch m4 macbook air and i use my old asus zenscreen 15inch. It's now my secondary monitor even at home and i keep my macbook docked. At coffees i have the screen over my laptop screen to take less space on a overly expansive stand lol ( FLEXSTA ). At work i have them side by side with my laptop on a roost stand. At home i have it rotated 90degree next to my studio display

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.

Kung gusto mo ng smoother display for gaming or just better scrolling experience, [Z1FC](https://s.shopee.ph/8zvatXbarM) na. Kung gusto mo lang ng basic, reliable screen for office, presentations, at okay ka sa 60Hz, ok din si ZenScreen, pero ayon nga lang medyo pricey. Ako personally, Z1FC talaga yong mas sulit since budget friendly siya, magaan din, and yung pinakagusto ko is yong 144Hz na sobrang noticeable talaga.

I got a zenscreen from asus. They have many sizes, plug and play 1 usb-C to usb-c cable.

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.
