Mediocre performance but EXTREMELY FRAGILE - Not worth the buy.
I purchased this monitor August 2016 because I travel consistently and needed a second monitor for work. The quality of the monitor is mediocre, the cover is fine, and the picture is fuzzy and somewhat dim, but I expected that from a "portable monitor".
I had it less than a month when the panel fell forward onto the desk on it's face once and stopped working. It didn't fall onto the floor, or from any height, it just pitched forward from the cover / stand (which, given the 'stand' is fairly weak is likely a COMMON occurrence). I reckon the force of the fall to be about the same as closing a notebook screen hard. When I picked up the panel to reset it on the stand, the product stopped working completely. A few quick flashes then BLACK screen.
I registered an RMA with ASUS (a ridiculously difficult and painful process). They just sent me back an email stating that the product is not covered under warranty AND the repair is the same as it would cost to buy a new one. WHAT A JOKE! A broken "portable monitor" from one average table faceplant?
Buyer BEWARE! This monitor is EXTREMELY FRAGILE for a "portable monitor". If you intend to move this *in any way* I would seriously reconsider or refrain as any normal bumps that happen may break the panel, rendering it useless.
This isn't my first ASUS product, but I will say it will likely be my LAST.
