Was super easy to install and has a nice travel case for protection

Nice portfolio case that comes with

Comes with a protective case, which looks quiet elegant/professional and acts as a stand- Monitor was "plug and play" (no driver installation needed

The only issue is a quality issue with the protective case fabric.

IF you do decide to buy one of these, find a nice solid hard case with inner padding to keep it in, because it's pretty flimsy.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*Initial review -- 3 weeks after purchaseOut of the box, I will say this thing looks pretty sleek.

I like using windows settings for all of this, but only ASUS will control brightness.- They do not seem to exact a great imposition on the battery when plugged in without power, but I don't do this often.- Lastly, the cases were annoying at first, they are a little bulky and heavy, but after working with them, I am completely satisfied with the protection they provide and how they support the monitors.

But the case will protect the screen from scratches

It has just been sitting on the floor in it's protective case

The protective case as a stand mostly works, but could

The size and protective case/stand fit easily into my computer bad beside my computer

I would say it's about as strong to my iPad cases and have a firm edging on both sides so the chances of something cause the case to buckle and break the screen seems much less likely

, I use this display (in its handy case/stand) next to my large Samsung display and run it mostly in portrait mode, where it's great for working on documents.

(http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005M0ICG2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00).--The case is supposed to double as a stand, but it's just weird and not as

Not terribly bright and has a huge impact on my battery life but otherwise great casing, reliable, fine performance.

We did not receive the ASUS Smart Case that was supposed to come with the monitor and neither Amazon or the Manufacturer would provide a replacement.

My onnly complaint is the case it comes with is a bit thin, so i bought a Case Logic basic 16 inch laptop sleeve to help protect it.

who's to say which one is right but when i'm going photo editing with lightroom or photoshop, i use the laptop as my main screen and the asus as an auxilliary screen.the slip case is nice, as a case

However, it makes for a sturdy and protective carrying case.

The only thing is that the case does not hold the monitor as secure as I would like it

Once I looked over the instructions a time or two I could decipher how the case is supposed to work, but I have serious doubts on the actual functionality.

Case is a little awkward to use in small areas, but might get a stand or something to fix that issue

case works fairly well as a stand but is flimsy.

The case will fall over and not correctly prop up the monitor.

It does work great as a protective case, just not as a stand

So what you are getting is essentially a really nice display, thin, lightweight, nice case, nice

The case it comes in is great for protection in a brief case but I am now ordering the stand that was recommended with it on here because the front flap keeps the screen a bit further back when working

This screen needs a much more protective case, which won't allow deformation from books to create pressure points on the screen

Should have built a kickstand onto the back of the display instead of this kludgey approach, which requires lugging around a cheap case.

Second, the "smart case" isn't actually that intelligently designed

The case it comes in is a nice case but is way too unstable as a monitor stand

It comes with a lovely case that is magnetic (to allow the screen to stand up) and padded

Purchased this unit, very nice display, light, nice case, it does work as a stand if you read the directions

But, I don't like the case of it

ASUS describes it as portable, however, the case it comes in doesn't protect it at all

Love the case as a case but, as a stand it is not that great

The case it comes in is not very sturdy or thick, but I took a sheet of light bubble wrap and inserted in the case on the screen side

love it, very light and great screen resolution, case is awsome

It also requires the entire case to lay flat on the table, which means you need a lot of table space.

The case, which also acts as a stand, is decent but does limit your viewing angles

The case is difficult to slide in because the sides are too short, you'll know what I mean if you have it.

It really needs a lightweight rigid case with good padding.

The monitor does come with a stiff case, that also doubles as the stand

Not terribly bright and has a huge impact on my battery life but otherwise great casing, reliable, fine performance.

Has extra screen real estateDownsides:* Stand case is horrible

It's very sleek and comes with a nice little carrying case, will fit nicely in any decent sized backpack, briefcase, etc

Just plug in, download the driver and it worked.--It's super light weight.--Comes with protective case.

Can't control brightness with OSX (have to connect to a Windows computer) - I don't trust the case-stand 100%

Only complaint... the case is a great case, but a sub-par stand.

The way this ridiculous case is designed, it's near impossible to slant the monitor on it

The case for storing the monitors works great for storage and just fine as a stand.

The case for storing the monitors works great for storage and just fine as a stand.

The case works well to hold up the monitor and for packing it up, but I do not remove the monitor from my desk much

The case it comes with is durable enough to protect it in my backpack, and it makes travel away from home easy to deal with and work more efficient than just one screen on the laptop

The case was scratched, and the screen was full of fingerprints

As a protective case, this items is very nice

The case is cheap and I didn't like it.

The case that comes with it is a usable but does not do a great job of protecting the monitor, also where the cable is stored is cumbersome to use.

The case does double as a stand, but it's kind of weird to use.

The reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is I would have like, and been willing to pay more, if it came with some type of hard case/cover

The included case works well as a rapidly deployed temporary stand, but it's a bit fiddly to get just right

This ASUS monitor came with a decent case/stand, software CD, and STILL does not work

I wish the case worked like a tablet case and stayed attached to the monitor.

Besides being a bad support it also sucks as a case

Only complaint... the case is a great case, but a sub-par stand.

The case is excellent and works well as a stand, with 2 tilt levels though I did order the Anchor stand which is sturdy with multiple viewing angles - a recommended add on though not necessary

The case is excellent and works well as a stand, with 2 tilt levels though I did order the Anchor stand which is sturdy with multiple viewing angles - a recommended add on though not necessary

The requirement to bring the case with the monitor, while probably good from a "keep it from breaking" standpoint, makes added bulk trying to stuff it into an already stuffed padded computer backpack.

Case really does not work as a stand, just accept that and buy a little fold up tripod stand (like for displaying decorative plates).I use with MacBook Pro Retina (2013 model)

Good resolution for the price, with a clever case that doubles as a stand

The case is better than the one with the AOC monitor, but I wish this one had the same prop as the AOC did.

Also the case is nice but its stand design is a bit weak

The case just bugs me because the flap was in the way.

The case/stand works really well as a case, the monitor fits very snug

The case is useless as my laptop bag fell off my desk with it in and the plastic corner broke

The smart case is great too

The case, which also acts as a stand, is decent but does limit your viewing angles

These screens are so light and skinny that they travel really well and the case it comes in seems sufficiently strong to protect them in any bag

Case is great too

It was super lightweight and came with a nice case, it just doesn't work for my needs with my Microsoft Surface Book, which is disappointing

As a sleeve, the case is decent

I like the picture on the screen, but the case is a little awkward to use as a stand and often requires a lot of finagling to get it to stay up, especially if you're using it in portrait mode

The case falls into an adequate stand, although you may want to purchase a small monitor stand to go with it

2.0.The case is sturdy enough that I am not worried about other things in my bag pressing up against the screen and cracking it

It also had the case-stand issue, but the need to buy a third party USB 3.0 cable and a travel stand are a lot less glaring when the travel monitor has industry leading resolution along with a slimmer profile

So good screen supported by shoddy and cheap ASUS Smart Case that you cant use

I did carry it with me everywhere, in its provided protective case with my laptop in my work bag

The case is nice and secure for storage

The sand is a decent storage case, but it's literally the worst object I've ever seen that could conceivable still be called a stand

The case is flimsy but usable

The "C" version has a better case and controls, and theoretically (although I couldn't tell in my limited use so far) faster refreshes.

the colors are richer, more vibrant, the controls over those aspects are there to control on the zenscreen as well.the case is much better as well and has multiple folding options.

Besides the terrible case the description of this item was confusing and led me to believe it was a 1920x1080 monitor, when it really is a 1366x768 one

I still feel like the monitor itself needs a case, although when you hold it in your hand it feels nice and light

The case it came with is feels very sturdy

Also, the case/sleeve that it comes with works somewhat serviceably as a stand, but I'd prefer some sort of folding magentized cover similar to an iPad cover that could fold up

The case is good, it does not add much bulk, perfect for travel

The monitor works perfect with no external power source, The case that is included however, does not provide adequate support to create a stand for the monitor.

It works fine as a case, but not so great as a stand.

(zooming lag, refresh has a little lag)Yes - this is an excellent monitor for developers who need more screens for text and screens for their toolsYes - the case works well for storing inside a laptop bag and the monitor is very portable

Case and cord are not optimal, but they get the job done.

The screen is good quality and is very easily portable, coming with a nice travel case that doubles as a stand

The case works pretty well as a stand but it does stick out a solid 9 inches behind the monitor, something which can be annoying in certain situations

Ridiculous case/stand

I wanted the size here to help with what I do, but that case is literally and truly the downfall of this fantastic monitor

So much for protective case

The device is intended for mobile computing, and it comes with a protective case

super lightweight and thin compared to AOC e1659 model; nice carrying case

The case protects the monitor, and the case works as a stand

It's light weight and comes with a protective carrying case and connection cord.

It does not provide adequate support or adjustability in stand mode, and provides little protection as a case

The case is good as a case, but not as a stand

Portable, no additional case/stand needed.

I probably used it fewer than 15 times and otherwise kept it in the nice case it came with

I kept it in my traveling laptop bag, always in its protective case

I don't know how durable it is from a travel perspective as I only use mine at home, but it comes with a pretty sturdy case

USB plug fits snugly into the port.the Bad (annoyances):It only has the awkward case to use as a stand (best to purchase a cheap one)the Ugly (dealbreakers):none

Yes it mostly works, but you have to lay out the whole case flat which takes up too much room, and the tiny little plastic tab that is supposed to prop up the monitor seems poorly designed and doomed to break.

IF you do decide to buy one of these, find a nice solid hard case with inner padding to keep it in, because it's pretty flimsy.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*Initial review -- 3 weeks after purchaseOut of the box, I will say this thing looks pretty sleek.

Not very durable, needs a stronger case.

Very thin, excellent cover case thing.

The sturdy cases they come with also double as stands, and they work well as long as they have 1-2 feet of space to be positioned.

The case is good for travel, and it fits in my backpack easily to make a nice portable office

The case it comes with is really awesome too

but it pisses me off that ASUS would mess up with something as stupid as a case

It's not a super hard case but it is a lot more stronger/firmer than any bag that I got with the AOC

Instead, you are supposed to use the flimsy support case which takes up too much space.

If it came with a better protective case I would give it 4 stars.

The case is very good for protection, but not a good stand

This monitor was in it's protected case and NEVER dropped

It comes with an attractive, slimline, protective travel case.

The case it comes with is not adequate for protecting during transport.

The video quality is low, the case isn't very sturdy nor does it work like a stand very well either

I had the screen in its proper case, in my sturdy bookbag, but the screen cracked in multiple places.

Extremely light and comes with a sturdy nylon case which still keeps the overall weight light and easy to carry.

Due to this, I started searching for a new monitor that offered a better quality case and I found this Asus

The product works well, is plug and play, and, despite other reviews, the case doubles well as a monitor stand.

The product works well, is plug and play, and, despite other reviews, the case doubles well as a monitor stand.

If you are going to travel with it, buy a rigid case to protect it

Case is terrible.

If you're using it as a stand the case will nearly always let the screen fall over -- and it takes up a good amount of desk space.

At first, I like the dual purpose case, however after taking the monitor down, and putting it away and setting it up again several times in one day, I would greatly prefer a kickstand and have the case just be a nice case.

The case doubling as a stand works in the technical sense of the word, but is very large and bulky, and has a very large footprint

It comes with a Ballistic Nylon case and it is a good case

Case is nice for a case but bad as a stand

The case that comes with it- is a great value, you might expect the company to send just the monitor- but the nice case it comes with is like a $50 plus in my book - looks sharp the pen and such

The case is durable and the way it holds the monitor is pretty clever

It come with a well padded carrying case which also acts as a stand.

Its not like otterbox sells a case for it

The case works great as a case and terrible as a monitor stand

The case seems durable, and doubles as the stand.

ASUS should just make the same screen, but have a rigid screen protector that folds into a stand instead of the flimsy case

The case doesn't offer much protection other than keeping scratch free and is not a sturdy stand.

The case as a 'stand' sucks - buy one of the tablet stands that you will see advertised with this and you will be much better off.

Compact and case doubles as a stand.

The only downside to this is using the case for the stand, but I bought a $10 ipad stand that actually works great for this monitor and doesn't take up much room in my bag or the desk I'm using.

The case is nice and quite durable, but does seem to make for a somewhat awkward stand

The monitor comes with a protective envelope-type case that doubles as a monitor stand, but I prefer using a small lightweight monitor stand which provide more stability.

Supposedly, the case it comes with is supposed to work as a stand, but, nooooo

I wish it was a hard case, but it's pretty sturdy as soft cases go and MUCH better than what you got with the AOC (a neoprene soft case that is VERY tight to get on and is likely to rip out after just a few uses), or the GeChic 2501H (nothing at all).--It works with my Surface Pro 3.

In addition, the cool case that it comes with serve as extra protection as well as a monitor stand.

gives me a full workstation and the nice carrying case protects it in my computer bag.

a bit more firm* Protective case doesn't do its job (see below

I wish it was a hard case, but it's pretty sturdy as soft cases go and MUCH better than what you got with the AOC (a neoprene soft case that is VERY tight to get on and is likely to rip out after just a few uses), or the GeChic 2501H (nothing at all).--It works with my Surface Pro 3.

Now the case, that's a more serious issue.

The less good: The case is a way better case than a stand

The case is great, but using it as a stand is horrible

5 stars because it works great and the case is pretty nice.

I did not like the case; but, it is not a show stopper.

The case is terrible as a stand, decent for protection, but it will not protect the unit's sides as they are exposed.

Peculiar case/stand at best.

It comes with a nice case and together they fit in the laptop pocket of my brief case.

Great monitor, but one of the worst case designs to stand up your monitor on

With the ASUS the connection works with gravity because it's pointed downward when the monitor is vertical although the connection is solid enough that it probably would hold well anyway.3. CASE: This is definitely superior

Case is nice for a case but bad as a stand

BUT you will need to get a separate stand... the case is awful and clunky as a stand

The idea seems to be that if you lose the case you can hold it upright with any pen in a pinch.

The case works, but the viewing angle is not adjustable, and it takes up a lot of space which I am limited to on a day to day basis considering my line of work

The case is flimsy and does not protect the screen

Solid, extremely thin and lightweight, great carrying case/stand, bright for what it is, crisp and

Decent enough, the case (which folds and is also the stand), is flimsy and not adjustable and the resolution was OK for the price.

The USB - C is fantastic, and the case with built in stand is well made - Props to Asus for their quality accessories!

Easy to use and setup quickly- free case and standCons:- Bad

If you are going to travel with it, buy a rigid case to protect it

The case is thin yet protects the monitor well, however it also doubles as the stand, which isn't the most convenient or stable, but it works

I have no qualms with it since I favor the origami case as a stand, but I can see where they were going with it being a more 'minimalist' design choice

Also, the case is nice for using as a stand, but it does take up space, so I use the "Anker ultralight upgrade folding stand" for actually holding my moniter.

Super lightweight, and slim, even in the protective case

Only downside is the soft carrying case doubles as an origami-like stand ... takes a while to get the monitor balanced on it and any bump is enough to destabilize it.

What's unfortunate is that it really is a decent case

before you buy, do yourself a favor and research it a bit as far as compatibility goes.compared to 169c+...in my experience, the c+ will only work if your mobo setup has a 3.1 usb c slot that's dp alt mode compatible.

** Will most likely not work unless your laptop has a native USB C

Unfortunately, the USB-A to Proprietary connector does not work with the Apple USB-C to USB-A adapter and my MacBook pro no longer recognizes it

only compatible with newer computers with built in USB-C

However, most laptops don't support USB C yet.

Apparently doesn't work with USB3.0, only USB type C with Display port

The response time for DisplayPort over USB C is much better than MB169B+ which is USB 3.0 with drivers.

, the stand/cover was OK, but the problem was the USC C, I couldn't get the right connector to hook it to my laptop and get it to work, I ordered several to try before returning the item.

" Full HD 1920x1080 IPS USB Type-C Powered Eye Care Portable MonitorComputer: XPS 13 (2015)Well designed product

If you know the "C" version will work with your laptop (C with alternate modes capable of display port), and you don't plan on using it on anything else, the "C" might be a better option

If your device does not support DisplayPort over Type-C please look into getting the MB169B+ instead as this monitor uses the USB 3.0 standard

There is currently no USB-C to Multiport USB-C dongle available that supports pass-thru USB-C charging (none that I have found, anyways after much searching

but I don't have a c compatible

DisplayPort™ over USB-C™ is using USB Type-C connector and cable to support the DisplayPort interface for audio/video transport capability

the C+ blows the B+ away with rich color and sharper image

ONLY compatible to: USB 3.1 type-C(GEN2), Thunderbolt 3 devices, USB 3.0 type-C is not compatible

On The Go (OTG Host Cable) for Type-C Supported Devices (6 Inch

The C+ is brighter and more responsive than the B+ as it uses the displayport, standard over USB 3.1 Type C meaning that it counts towards the maximum number of monitors your graphics card supports

Never as wide as you'd like, but comparable to most laptop screens (and actually even better than my ACER).I'm really

The image quality is adequate for our work as well as if we watch a movie.

If you are that worried about it being as perfect as

One other note, and this is something I found out via trial and error as I could not find any information on this monitor with regard how to replace a lost or damaged cable

I use this when I travel as well as at home with laptop

No light bleed around edges as I expected based on other reviews.

I gave it a 3 because the cable that is provided fits loosely and continues to disconnect-extremely frustrating as it also resizes my laptop screen.

Overall bad experience on this one - both on product itself as well as with ASUS customer service.

The colors are not as rich as on my main display, but nothing to gripe about unless you are doing photo editing

I can finally travel anywhere and be just as productive as in my office

This thing often falls off as it is very flimsy to use and can only be used on a hard, level surface.

In portrait orientation it looks exactly as good as in landscape

Don't make the same mistake!S
