UPerfect BE173BU Portable Monitor Review: Big, Bright, Sharp, Fast and Colorful - CNET (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Despite lots of portable monitors on the market, there are surprisingly few 4K options that offer a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. The UPerfect BE173BU is one of those, and it’s not resting on rarity to be a solid portable display overall. That said, as something of a rare commodity, it’s quite a bit more expensive than comparable 60Hz models. The BE173BU has a 17.3-inch screen, which means the 3,840×2,160 pixels are nice and densely packed. It can run at the 120Hz max refresh rate, but it also has
Best Portable Monitors for 2026 - CNET (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Portable monitors are a simple way to instantly increase your screen space almost anywhere. Ranging in size from 13 to 21.5 inches, they can connect to a laptop with a single USB-C cable for picture and power or via an HDMI cable. There are many models to choose from, from big names like Lenovo, ViewSonic and Asus as well as smaller, unfamiliar brands. Features, design, build quality and image quality can vary, as can prices, with options starting under $100 and going up to hundreds of dollars.
I Tested 23 Portable Monitors. My Results Prove You Shouldn’t Shop by Specs Alone - CNET (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When shopping for a new monitor, you’ll see a lot of familiar specifications, like 4K, 1440p or 1080p resolutions and refresh rates anywhere from 60Hz to 1,000Hz. You’ll rarely run into a monitor that doesn’t deliver on those specifications. However, there’s a whole host of other specifications that you may or may not be familiar with — color gamut, brightness, contrast and color accuracy — that play just as big a role in the quality of your experience. After running hundreds of tests on almost
UPerfect BE16CU Portable Monitor Review: Bright and Sharp, but Not Quite as Advertised - CNET (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you’ve shopped for a portable monitor recently, you’ll have seen many that look nearly identical to the UPerfect BE16CU. It’s about as plain as they come, with an aluminum frame, some screw holes on the back for VESA mounting, a few ports on its left edge, controls on its right and a folding folio cover that doubles as a rudimentary stand. What sets the BE16CU apart is its promise of ultrahigh brightness — up to 1,200 nits. Combine that brightness with its matte finish, and you’ve got a recip
I Turned the TCL Nxtpaper 11 Gen 2 Tablet Into a Great Budget Portable Monitor and an Even Better Value - CNET (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’ve reviewed almost two dozen portable monitors in the last few years. While some were impressive, I’ve had a hard time ignoring that there’s an entirely different class of portable displays out there with the potential to serve the same purposes and do a lot more. Most aren’t even more expensive. The TCL Nxtpaper 11 Gen 2 is a great example. It’s a modest Android tablet with a decent display, active stylus support and a price tag that’s similar to the better portable monitors I’ve tested. The
