27" 1440. [https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-ZenScreen-Transportable-Monitor-MB27ACF/dp/B0DM6RWJDV?th=1](https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-ZenScreen-Transportable-Monitor-MB27ACF/dp/B0DM6RWJDV?th=1) works great.

Monitors in a broadcast environment at a minimum need to be able to be calibrated. Asus ProArt monitors are nice, but really belong in post houses paired with monthly color probe calibration. They're pretty bad for field work compared to set monitors

Asus ProArt. They come color calibrated from factory.

Those monitors have come a long way really quickly. I know View Sonic Volor Pro and Asus ProArt models are crazy light for the quality you get.

Asus ZenScreen. I'm selling mine if you happen to be in New York (I went up to an 18"), although it's LED and 1080. No reason why you'd need 4k resolution on a 16".

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..

I used to use a ZenScreen but somewhere along the way I stopped using it. Don't know why to be honest

I've been using the ASUS ZenScreen for past year with my macbook and it works pretty well in bright environments. Got mine for around 200 euros and brightness is decent enough for outdoor cafes, though you still need to find some shade on really sunny days
