I mistakenly put the provided USB cable into the sleeve on the screen side not the back of the case, and the pressure from the rest of the bag contents must have pushed the hard cable into the screen and cracked it.

I have to manipulate the cable and tilt the unit at different angles with the stand

No power cable or hdmi cable to carry around).5-Great for gaming on the go

The USB port on the screen is so sensitive that if you disturb the cable in any fashion the screen blinks in and out.

Only problem is that cable that comes with it gets loose real easy and monitor cuts off.

Not sure if its bad cable that came with monitor and I can't seem to find replacement parts

so whoever has this monitor don't lose the cable you can't find it anywhere

The cable I hear is junk and did not bother using it and purchased another on amazon for 5 bucks

then the cable didn't work anymore

USB-C cable it came with is suuuuper loose

So if you mount the monitor and the cable is left hanging . . . it constantly unplugs itself.

Today when I went to use it, the USB 3 cable that plugs into the back of the monitor bent and the cable is no longer usable

Make sure you don't lose the cable that comes with it, because that thing is expensive.

Biggest con is that the cable doesn't stay in the monitor very well.

Any slight movement of the cable makes the cable come out enough that it doesn't work.

But the cable that connects to the back of the screen is very flimsy and weak

I though maybe it is because bad cable or bad usb c to usb 3.0 connector, but I bought a different cable and tried another usb hubs and connector but the problem still exist

Additionally, The monitor comes with a 3ft cable, but if you need to replace it you'll need a compatible USB-C cable, as not all of them support alt-mode

The cable you plug into the monitor is where the problem lies.

It's just one cable and worked out of the box.

A cheap charge cable will not work (I've verified this)

Have been very impressed with the quality overall and teh USB-C Connection is super easy and minimizes cables

The cable itself is VERY hard and nonelastic,

Lost the cable and purchased two different cables.

I have tried other cables and it still didn't work

My unit has zero pixel defect.- Single cable, works with my 2080 TI card

The only problem is the cable, which was included, does not stay in the screen

I lost the USB cable while traveling as I got this monitor for extended screen

It has a handy built-in stand and the cable stays secure once connected

The problem is the cable and/or where the cable plugs into the screen

I also love that it is powered by the USB 3.0 slot, meaning a single, simple cable is enough for both power and connectivity.

It worked out of the box with my Dell XPS 13 laptop (running Windows 8.1 Pro) using the included USB 3.0 cable

After using the monitor two times and ensuring good cable connectivity, the monitor never worked again

Replaced with a good quality cable and it works great.

Nice portable package, the addition of the sleeve and the cable is nice, no problem finding drivers to download and it all came up easily

I'm not 100% sure if it came with a bad cable or (pretty sure) the port on the screen is crummy.

After researching some troubleshooting tips from others I have found using a powered usb hub to resolve the issue (can be usb 2 or 3 but remember it will only push the amount of your slowest cable at least in my experience)

That cable did not work

The cable I hear is junk and did not bother using it and purchased another on amazon for 5 bucks

Second AOC portable monitor purchased with a poor cable connection, you get what you paid for

So if that cable is lost or broken, getting a replacement will not be so easy

was that the cable where it connects into the back of the monitor is very loose so if you accidentally hit the screen or move the wire it gets disconnected very easily.

The USB cable had a split cable that looks like they want you plug both the USB3 (blue) and the USB2 (white) into the computer.

USB 3.0 port is in a good location to keep the cable from getting knocked out.

This thing worked great--until the cable stopped working

They were constantly out of stock (its been over a month) and they cannot recommend a cable that might work or just offer one for purchase.

The idea of a travel monitor was great, but the poor cable design is a fatal flaw.

standard USB type C cables don't work as they only care power and data, but don't support video.

The cable get loose and I lost conection

Loved the monitor, but the cable only worked a couple of times and then completely broke.

Anyways, I tried it one more time using the new cable and it works

only complaint is the cable.

Also, the USB-C cable is very loose on the monitor, so it would most likely be disconnecting frequently.

I asked if the cable could be the issue and they did not know and said I would have to buy a new one they would not cover it under warranty.

I have tried every possible USB cable answered through the Q&A session for lost / replacement cable and been completely unsuccessful, if you want to buy this piece of electronic garbage, make sure not to loose the USB cable came with it.

I received the new cable and it worked for about 6 weeks.

I also followed the advice of some reviewers that found ways to secure the USB cable to the back of the monitor in order to try and prevent the connection from failing prematurely

The cables are extremely loose

My ONLY complaint is the cable

3.0 Adapter,USB Type-C to USB,Thunderbolt 3 to USB Female Adapter OTG Cable Compatible with

FYI - Don't lose the USB cable - they seem to be difficult to replace.

As others say, the cable (which is detachable from the monitor for no reason at all) falls out of the monitor all the time

Lost the cable for this monitor

It does not make sense because the cable that came with screen is not damaged so why isnt it working?

Might be the cable's problem, but i don't see it offers replacement cable,so it's useless

They just had a lame USB cable.

Perhaps a retractable cable would work for this purpose

My cable just doesn’t stay in the machine so it works 10% of the time

USB C requires alt mode for it to support displays and without it you will not be able to get this monitor to work

Great little monitor all works off of USB c

This monitor is not as clear as the USB-C

I got this in March and for the first 3 months it worked fine; plug in USB-C and then boom, instant 2nd monitor

So I ordered USB-C to USB-A adapter, and the display still didn't work.

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.

Perfect for our needs to have a second monitor...as we often work out of the office.

Buyer beware as I have filed a BBB complaint.

standard USB type C cables don't work as they only care power and data, but don't support video.

I really enjoyed this product until the screen cracked as I was traveling

and it does not kill the battery on the laptop as fast as I would have thought

I hope that it continues to impress as we use it more.

A great way to add an additional screen when on the road, as well as at home.

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.

Monitor is just as easy, compact, lightweight and portable as I wanted it to be.

Unfortunately, I didn't take it out of the box until after the period of return expired as it was a gif for my husband.

After some trial & error, I found the optimal RGB to be about 5250 K (R & B will be nearly right; G will be perhaps 10-15% over).

connector on back of device is, in fact a standard USB 3.0 'Micro B' style plug, not proprietary like some have claimed.
