UPERFECT - UPERFECT 16.1" 144Hz Portable Monitor

I got my dad a UPERFECT 16.1" 144hz 2560x1440p one for about £200. Need portable because he uses it on some bike trainer thing he uses that simulates a real race. Wanted something portable that he can easily take between the house and shed and mount on the front of the bike. Does the trick. He's been playing MW2019 on it and says it feels great to game on as well, 1440p resolution on that screen size will look like bloody 8k res I assume, and the 144hz helps. Overall he's happy with it, but of course you can get similar specs for cheaper with just a bog standard monitor. But if like my dad you have your reasons for wanting a small, lightweight and portable monitor, then yeah.. just get one. If you're going 1080p 60hz the cheapest one I found was an MSI one though, so just grab an MSI one instead at those specs. At least it's a reputable brand.

i have the uperfect. just to note, HDMI is 2.0 so you will only get 120hz at 1600p. if you want to have full 144hz, you will need displayport to usb-C BI-DIRECTIONAL. note that BI-DIRECTIONAL is important, otherwise it won't work on desktop gpu. you will also need to connect power source to the other usb-c port

it has been performing pretty well. i got the J118 instead of the K118. the only difference is J118 got full HDMI instead of mini HDMI, and some aesthetic differences. colors are vibrant and no visible ghosting during motion.

I use UPerfect 16 inches, 2.5K almost two years as the secondary one for my MacBook 14 in. Still love it, even as it has a some glow zones on the top of the screen, not visible at all, especially with the light theme.

I recommend the UPEFECT. I use mine for my ROG Ally and Samsung Dex setups.

UPERFECT 144HZ 16", i have a post of it on my profile, same with the keyboard. They're both discounted on Amazon often.

Make sure to get one that is bright (>400 nits or check reviews). A lot of them are unusable in daylight. I wasted money on one before. My wife and I have been using uperfect's monitors for the past 3 years while digital nomading and have been happy with them. The exact model is no longer available but i'd probably get the 2k uperfect near the top of [this list](https://redditrecs.com/portable-monitor/) (ranked by aggregated Reddit reviews, you can see breakdown of comments) when mine breaks. It has 400 nits and I like 2k resolution for making sure my eyes don't get tired reading blurry text.

I won’t go for 4k. It’s an overkill for portable monitors smaller than 19in. It may not be able to be powered by just a USBc from your MacBook too. What’s more important is to get one that is bright (>400 nits or check reviews). A lot of them are unusable in daylight. I wasted money on one before. My wife and I have been using uperfect's monitors for the past 3 years while digital nomading and have been happy with them. The exact model is no longer available but i'd probably get the 2k uperfect on this list based on aggregated reddit reviews https://redditrecs.com/portable-monitor/

I recently did an analysis on reddit data on portable monitors. If you're looking for something tried and tested i'd probably go for one of the ones at the top [https://redditrecs.com/portable-monitor/](https://redditrecs.com/portable-monitor/) A key thing to look out for is to get one that is bright (>400 nits or check reviews). A lot of them are unusable in daylight. I wasted money on one before. Fwiw my wife and I have been using uperfect's monitors for the past 3 years while digital nomading and have been happy with them. The exact models are no longer available but i'd probably get the 2k uperfect one near the top of that list if mine breaks. It has 400 nits and the 2k resolution is great for making sure my eyes don't get tired reading blurry text.

You should be able to get a good one for plenty less than $1k. But make sure to get one that is bright (>400 nits or check reviews). A lot of them are unusable in daylight. I wasted money on one before. My wife and I have been using uperfect's monitors for the past 3-4 years while digital nomading and have been happy with them. The exact model is no longer available but i'd probably get the 2k uperfect ranked near the top of [this list](https://redditrecs.com/portable-monitor/) (ranked by reddit reviews) if mine breaks. It has 400 nits and the 2k resolution is great for making sure my eyes don't get tired reading blurry text.

I'd recommend getting one that is brighter. The one you linked is only 250cdm2 which is pretty low. I would look for something that either has >400 nits or have reviews saying its bright. A lot of portable monitors are unusable in daylight. I wasted money on one before. Unless you're always working in a dark room? FWIW my wife and I have been a digital nomad for 3 years and we've been using monitors from uperfect. We've been pretty happy with them so far. They're thin and bright and light enough to bring around. The exact models are no longer available though. But I recently did an analysis on reddit data on portable monitors, basically ranking them by aggregated sentiment - maybe you'll find the results helpful [https://redditrecs.com/portable-monitor/](https://redditrecs.com/portable-monitor/) I'm eyeing the 2k uperfect near the top of the list (for when my current one breaks). It has 400 nits and IME 2k resolution is the sweet spot for portable monitors. 2k is crisp enough so my eyes won't get tired reading blurry text. Anything higher is overkill for screens below 20 inches, plus you'll likely need to plug in an extra power cable. Its more expensive though so if you want something cheaper the Z1FC Arzopa at the top is on sale now on amazon i think and is at least 300cdm2 and has reviews saying its bright enough.

I recommend getting one that is bright (>400 nits or check reviews). Some of them are super dim and basically unusable in daylight. I wasted money on one before. I'm currently using one from UPERFECT, 400 nits and its pretty decent. FWIW I recently did an analysis on reddit data on portable monitors. Basically ranked them by aggregated sentiment.

Using Uperfect portable monitor ok naman sya yung 2K/144Hz binili ko sa Amazon last year kasi may discount sa Black Friday sale 10k naging 5k nalang hahaha dahil din sa bank offers na USD din ang discount. Check out Amazon mas marami silang portable monitors na higher refresh rate at screen resolution compared to Lazada/Shopee at the similar price. Tell me if you need suggestions I'll give you some link 🫡

I haven't tried, so my advice is null. I think there's more value then a separate portable monitor that has a built in stand. Bonus if the stand supports a vertical orientation. I picked up a Uperfect 16 inch monitor recently and it's been awesome. Runs 144 on one USBC cable. Also I find with a separate keyboard and mouse I can vertical stack them.

I wish I had the cash for one of the Duoone I instead just got a single 2k 144 monitor from Uperfect. For a quarter of the price. But it's not a nice of course.

it cant do 120 over mini hdmi? i have the 2k IPS version of this monitor from uperfect and it does 2k just fine, is the extra 1k really that much more taxing?

Im probably going to buy one myself. I have the ips variant from uperfect and I love everything except for the motion ghosting, so an OLED thats basically the same otherwise is huge for me. Plus im seeing t hem for 200$ which is kindof a bargain

how is it treating you? i have a 2k IPS from uperfect that i really like, so im wondering if this is worth the upgrade from ips

nice. i just got a uperfect 16" "gaming monitor" to use in the the same way, although vertical. been using dual 27" monitors for years, but found i really only use half the screen on the 2nd monitor really, mostly for email and notes and the occasional document/brief. figured i'd try and free up some desk space. i'm also a graphic designer so "the work" only really happens on my studio display in the middle. haven't set up the uperfect yet, i know its not as nice resolution out of the box, but since it's only really for "side items" i'm not overtly concerned about it. similarly priced, that arzopza looks pretty slick. the main reason i got the uperfect is barely any bezels and no "chin" chunk and no logo. it's basically just a rectangular screen. hope it does the trick! love your set up. nice posters and color scheme all around.

Flipgo from Jsaux. I have two of the 16in version and a 16in laptop and a Ugreen 16in portable monitor, 6 screens altogether, all fit in a small backpack. For small stays I just take the Ugreen with me. Every screen is 1600p vertically, I could never use only one screen of 1080p like the one in the glasses some people suggest, not that I did not try it. Flipgo exists also in 14inch Edit: sorry Uperfect not Ugreen is the brand of my single portable monitor

I ended up going with this one from uperfect. It’s pretty good and honestly overkill for the ally x. If I was buying today I would probably get the 2k one instead. Both are able to run off a single usbc with no power cable I’m pretty sure https://a.co/d/0581bfI

I used a uperfect usb c monitor for about a minute and it worked. I don't know more than that as the monitor had a fault and I'm waiting on a replacement. I'd choose on Ali express, the 16inch 120hz portable OLED or the 13 inch 1080p 60hz OLED at around £200 and £100.
