Pros & Cons
Pros
This does the trick! This one is fantastic. No complaints with video/game quality. They seem to really stand by their product.
Monitor comes in a nice box with sealed package of cables and a nice cover to protect your monitor. According to apple, thunderbolt 2 and mini display work exactly the same for this use. The one caveat is that brightness is limited when powering throu... Read More
This is perfect for my needs and the very affordable. Small enough that i don’t feel like the corners are stressed when it is packed.
Cons
Freesync is supposed to quickly turn off and on again to activate the feature. It’s like the feature in not baked on the tv software. Not only are there no screws included, vesa screws do -not- fit.
Highlights
Quality
I am very satisfied with the 4k hdr screen quality and brightness.
I've tested the quality of the monitor against using online tools and it has passed with flying colours.
So the screen as the perfect size everywhere i go the only things and its normal you got to plug the screen cause the phone can... Read More
Bought this screen less than two months ago and there's a blue line that runs across the screen from side to side.

Competitiveness
It turns out that according to apple, thunderbolt 2 and mini display, while not exactly the same, work exactly the same for this use.
The verdict is that this is probably one of the better choice out there in terms of price / quality.
Even on the device itself, nowhere does it indicate the model number or any branding.
I bought another brand's portable monitor in 2023 and returned it since resolution and brightness were just so so, as was the refresh rate.
