Reviews around price (4.45 of 5)

  • I am really disappointed, because I felt this was a great product at a reasonable price, but now realize it was too good to be true.
  • I really want this to work as a portable second screen, the price was reasonable but the performance is terrible.
  • Otherwise, if the monitor continues to work, then I would say it does what is supposed to do for a pretty reasonable price.
  • On the plus side, the stand is very nicely designed an integrated into the monitor, I had little trouble getting it to work and the price wasn't bad
  • Very blurry - price is good but the product is not very functional.

Reviews around picture (4.28 of 5)

  • Picture looks terrible on MacBook they use airplay to use as second monitor
  • So I ordered USB-C to USB-A adapter, and the display still didn't work.
  • I've bought 3 of these & they all work fine, have to be set up with the CD that comes with each, also each comes with a nice padded case, how ever the only hookup wire (usb) could have been longer at least for my set up, and you have to be right in front of the screen to get the best picture 25/30 degrees off center & the picture blurs.
  • So it is not good for doing things with graphics on them as the picture is not great to look at
  • The monitor is great, connection works perfect, and good picture quality too

Reviews around work (4.02 of 5)

  • This worked well enough for a second screen but after a month of me unplugging it so I could move my laptop and now the screen doesn't work
  • Monitor quit working after 5 months and they refused to accept a shipment back for warranty work
  • I travel a lot for work, all of my co-workers have ordered the extra screen as well, works like a charm!
  • It's pretty bad@$$ working dual screen at a coffee shop or on an airplane.
  • It must have a faulty connection somewhere because even though it is solidly plugged in it constantly loses the connection and shuts the screen down, interrupting work.

Reviews around case (3.92 of 5)

  • This includes a padded sleeve, but I'd rather have a hard case to protect better.
  • Their soft case does absolutely nothing to protect the monitor in travel.
  • The plastic casing on that one has started to scratch up a bit as it didn't come with a case, but it works like a charm
  • AOC could solve this problem by replacing the stupid soft case with a hard plastic front cover like TI calculators use.
  • Regardless, I liked this monitor enough to buy a replacement (though because I had customers question the image quality - I went with the IPS version), though I also picked up a hard case to better protect the screen.

Reviews around resolution (3.91 of 5)

  • Wish it were a better resolution, but for my purposes, it works great!
  • While it does work, and it works well, it does not have great image quality and it is a slightly odd screen resolution.
  • I was using this for software development, but the low resolution makes reading text unbearable.
  • It kind of mirrors the display but the resolution is unusable
  • Works as advertised but resolution is really not that great.

Reviews around stand (3.64 of 5)

  • My only complaint is that the stand is pretty weak in portrait mode, I'm constantly having it slip and slam into the table
  • The monitor itself is performing pretty well for its first day, though the stand is really flimsy
  • The monitor itself is lightweight and I liked the stand
  • Between that and the lousy stand, I'm probably going to return this monitor
  • Great monitor for the price and the stand really helps.

Reviews around display (3.60 of 5)

  • It's as good as any standard 1920x1080 desktop display.
  • it not ultra thin, it is thicker then my yoga 900, the display is finicky so touchy to get it to work.
  • The display of the surface book 2 became terrible after these drivers
  • (But not soon enough for me to return it).I believe the failure mechanism is at the USB connector and unfortunately if that fails the display is worthless.
  • Excellent quality, portable and the display is clear and crisp.

  • I needed a second USB monitor for my laptop when working from
  • I just plugged the USB into the extra monitor and their chromebook and it works right away
  • I had tried a less expensive USB monitor (~$100), but ended up returning it because the resolution was not good enough (1,366 x 768).
  • Great usb type c powered monitor that is perfect for traveling with my laptop when working on one screen just isn’t enough.

Reviews around computer (2.45 of 5)

  • DisplayLink which is the driver for this display completely hobbled my computer

  • I only have one small computer lap top screen when I travel, so this definitely helps.

Reviews around plastic (2.43 of 5)

  • And it doesn't work directly with the brightness and color controls in Windows 10.The case smells really badly of "cheap plastic" :-(
  • Sometimes when I lift it on the right side though I hear a crack as if the plastic is breaking
  • USB C requires alt mode for it to support displays and without it you will not be able to get this monitor to work
  • Initially I liked this product a lot- portable and served its purpose
  • A few complaints like the cheap plastic casing and very stiff USB cord, but pretty decent display for the price

Reviews around warranty (2.31 of 5)

  • The monitor comes with a nice, protective carry case which does a good job protecting the device, until it doesn't - something broke internally (not sure how that's my fault) and the company refuses to honor its warranty - I wouldn't purchase another AOC product
  • Monitor is just as easy, compact, lightweight and portable as I wanted it to be.
  • As other buyers have noted, the USB cord is a little short, so you are going to be restricted as to which side of your computer you want to set this screen up on if you only have USB 3.0 on one side of your system.
  • standard USB type C cables don't work as they only care power and data, but don't support video.
  • Now I'm going to go fight with customer service again to try and get my money refunded as I don't want another one from AOC.

Reviews around cable (2.28 of 5)

  • I lost the USB cable while traveling as I got this monitor for extended screen
  • The only problem is the cable, which was included, does not stay in the screen
  • Biggest con is that the cable doesn't stay in the monitor very well.
  • Perhaps a retractable cable would work for this purpose
  • The problem is the cable and/or where the cable plugs into the screen

Reviews around cord (2.18 of 5)

  • Product arrived with a faulty USB cord that allows for an intermittent connection
  • Edit: I ended up returning this as the cord became so loose if I someone walked past it, the breeze they create would have made me lose the connection between the monitor and my computer
  • However, the USB plug does not go in all the way, so the cord is a bit loose and the monitor goes off and on when I move it
  • A few complaints like the cheap plastic casing and very stiff USB cord, but pretty decent display for the price
  • But now on 3 out of the 4, all less than one year old, the cord has either stopped working or been incredibly finnicky to the point it is not worth using.

  • I have had no issues with the cord like some if the reviews.

  • The connection on the back is not secure; I have to constantly plug back in because it isn't a secure fit.
