Clear picture, great viewing angle, and lots of connection options
Clear picture, great viewing angle, and lots of connection options There seem to be reviews on this page for a different screen, and I did not realize this when purchasing the screen so I'm going to write my own review for it and hopefully Amazon will move those other reviews to whichever product page they actually belong. I got the 15.6" non-touchscreen IPS 1920x1080 screen that has a tablet-like case. The color is listed as Black. Other reviews on this page have the color listed as Gray and seem to be for a smaller-sized touchscreen with some kind of metal folding stand. As of this writing, that screen is not listed as an option on this product page. Okay, now on to my review.... This is a great screen! It's large yet thin and lightweight with thin bezels, a fantastic viewing angle, and side-positioned ports and buttons so it to be mounted flush to the wall. For the size I was expecting it to be heavier but it's only like two pounds. My expectation likely came from having a 15.6" laptop which weighed over five pounds. The viewing angle is fantastic as even when looking at it from extreme angles it is very clear and the colors don't shift. I recently got a smaller touchscreen monitor for my Network Video Recorder (NVR) only to find out that my NVR doesn't support touchscreens, so I decided to use that screen with my mini PC media server and get this larger non-touch screen for my NVR. It comes with a typical tablet case that folds into a stand which should be fine for most people but I'm going to buy a small VESA mount so I can get it off the shelf and attach it to the wall. The buttons and ports are all located on the side of the screen so this can be easily mounted flush to the wall while still having access to all the ports and controls. It can also use a single USB-C cable for both power and video if your source device supports it. My NVR doesn't have a USB-C port so I have to use both a power cable and an HDMI cable, which are both included in the box by the way. My PC has a USB-C port so I tried with that but unfortunately I learned that my PC's port doesn't support video so it only worked to power the screen. I like that it supports a full HDMI port so I don't have to mess with HDMI to mini-HDMI cables since I have a ton of regular HDMI cables and none of the other kind. Or I should say one of the other kind because it comes with one, along with a regular HDMI cable, a USB-to-USB-C cable, a USB-C to USB-C cable, and even a screen protector. I didn't notice any Apple type connectors so if you want to use this with an Apple device that doesn't have HDMI you'll have to provide your own. The screen has built-in speakers which is great for using with my NVR because some my security cameras record audio. This is a very nice screen if you don't need a touch screen, with a great viewing angle, built-in speakers, and many connection options. At the time I bought it there was a $20 off coupon which made it even more attractive (and is still available as of this writing). I hope you found my review helpful, please let me know in the comments if you have any questions or suggestions for improvement. Thanks a bunch!
