ASUS ZenScreen 24” (23.8” viewable) 1080P Portable USB-C Monitor (MB249C) - FHD, IPS, Eye Care, Speakers, Multi-Stand Design, Kickstand, C-clamp Arm, Partition Hook, Carrying Handle, WFH Monitor

I bought this because I travel a ton for work and pleasure and needed a way to match office efficiency. I got this portable monitor because of a sale during Prime Day, a free 3-year warranty, and the monitor has a built in battery, which was rare for portable monitors in this price range. I've used the monitor for close to 2 months and have enjoyed the use of it so far. Here are my opinions: The battery life is decent. I can use the monitor without charging for 4 hours. I wish the battery was better, but the charging output is the same as my computer so it's easy to switch from charging my computer to charging my monitor so it's not a big deal. It is important to note that the charger that came with the monitor is short and is not suitable for computers or monitors as outlets are usually closer to the floor than the top of a desk/table. The monitor sleeve is also decent and serves as an okay stand so I bought a foldable portable stand for $15 so that problem is solved. The monitor came with an adapter so that I can connect to my computer, the adapter is pretty small and is just the right size for me and my work needs. I did, however, buy a second longer adapter just in case I need it. The monitor is touch screen, though it seemed somewhat buggy to me. This didn't really impact me because I don't care for touch screens on my monitors and I just turned it off. The visuals are good and functionality of the monitor are great. I utilize the monitor to use different software and mapping tools for work and there is no lag/delay and are visually similar to what you'd get on any office monitor. Consensus: The monitor gets the job done and for the discount/warranty I got, it was an excellent deal. I either bought or had several parts in hand to improve my experience with the monitor (charger, portable stand, etc). For the purpose that this monitor serves me, I am very pleased. However I recognize that there are substantially better portable monitors, but they all cost considerably more than this one. I would buy this monitor again, but only during a huge sale like Prime Day or Black Friday. The monitor is fine, but it's not so amazing that you have to buy this very second. Do what I did and wait for the next big Amazon sale.

This review is for the touch/battery (AMT) model. When checking these reviews make certain you filter or at least pay attention to which monitor the review is for. This listing includes the base model (AC), battery (AP), and touch/battery (AMT) models depending on what style is selected, which makes filtering through reviews and questions/answers very confusing. The first monitor I received was Dead On Arrival, which made me quite skeptical. I reluctantly opted for a replacement instead of a refund and I am VERY glad I did. In the past I've owned the AC model, and the touch/battery is a huge upgrade. I've always been a fan of the pen stand and folio cover/stand; but my main complaint with the AC model was the brightness. The battery allows for MUCH more satisfying brightness, and the touch is very convenient. Additionally the optional mini-HDMI input allows connection to many more devices than previously possible. One huge benefit that is seldom mentioned to using the ASUS zenscreen over a different brand portable monitor is the graphics processing hardware inside. Usually, with integrated graphics on your computer you are limited to 2 additional displays. Because this display can do graphics processing on the device, this limit is not considered, and you can use this as a 3rd display, potentially even more than that if you have multiple of these screens and enough USB ports. I am very pleased with this screen, and my only concern is that it may stop working one day (like the defective unit I initially received); but only time will tell, and I only worry because of how much I enjoy this device.

I purchased the MB16AMT portable Asus monitor back in April of 2021. I was wanting an extra display that I could take with me to work, as sometimes I am stuck using a computer that I don't normally use and not all set-ups at my company have dual monitors, which I prefer. So, this monitor typically travels to and from work with me on a regular basis. I checked multiple portable monitors and eventually decided on Asus. Asus is a name I know, and the price was cheaper as the MB16AMT was on sale at the time. Pros: Screen size is great. At 15.6", it is comparable to most laptop screens, and desktop screens companies use. The 1080 resolution was great and definitely got the job done. It was basically a plug and play situation. I plugged in the power cable, connected ot via USB, and the computer recognized there was another display monitor. Cons: It could use to be a bit brighter, in my personal opinion. Some things can look muted compared to a normal computer monitor. If you choose to use the speakers on the monitor, they don't get very loud. Passable, but not loud enough to watch a video and not miss any dialogue or background noises . Overall Personal Review: It is great as just a secondary, even tertiary monitor for work if you want it. Plug and play makes it simple to use. You can probably find monitors a bit cheaper, that do the same things, but you are also paying for the name Asus. I utilize this for other things, such as connecting to my Samsung phones and using Samsung Dex. Paired with army Logitech MX Keys and Logitech Anywhere 2 mouse, I have my own personal PC experience anywhere on the go. I also have a Genki Covert Dock Mini I carry with me, along with my Switch OLED, which can give me the option to play Switch, utilizing my monitor. It can be a great thing to have if stuck in an airport or at the hospital for long periods of time. You can utilize it to play movies on it, great for wrangling little kids if you need them to sit down for a while. Whether you choose an Asus monitor, or any other portable monitor, they can be a great asset to your gadget collection! Don't have a gadget collection? If you think you could utilize the monitor like I suggested above, might be time to start your gadget collection!

Adorei em tds os aspectos. Excelente produto, leve, fininho, funciona perfeitamente, marca confiável, 5 anos de garantia, capa protetora de boa qualidade. Recomendo a compra

¡Primero que todo y antes de nada! El monitor tiene entrada tipo DisplayPort Alt (DP Alt), tiene un símbolo especial, esto quiere decir que su entrada de corriente es TIPO USC C y para conectarla a tu equipo, debes tener ese tipo de entrada o de lo contrario el monitor no va a encender, NO VA A ENCENDER, ya que por el mismo puerto viaja corriente e imagen, no tiene cargador extra y no cuenta con HDMI aparte. El monitor es igual al de una laptop de 15.6” eso sí, es FHD y tiene varios modos de color, incluso puedes proyectar la pantalla de tu celular solo si el celular lo permite, Altamente recomendado porque viene con su propia funda acolchada para transportarlo y esa misma funda sirve como base para recargarlo. Mando fotos del tema de conexión.

Good display and nice to use portable screen

I got the MB166C after spending far too long looking at the differences in the various models that all look the same. From what I could tell there is negligible difference between the models. This one is brilliant though, use it with my Dell work laptop to remote work on the move a lot easier. Very simple to use, just plug in the USB-C and it's ready to go, nothing to install or set up. The case that doubles as a stand isn't the sturdiest so potentially worth investing in the stand but it's good enough for me and if you're set up on a sturdy table you should have no problems as it comes. Picture quality is good. Brightness is good too, have used it working out in the sun on bright days and can still read the screen easily too.

Es una excelente ayuda para el oficinista. Ligero, portable, confiable y de muy buena resolución de imagen. No tiene salida de audio, pero porque no es para gaming o ver películas o series. Excelente herramienta de trabajo.
