Una muy buena compra, tiene un muy buen brillo, super ligera, fácil de instalar y muy adaptable. Considero que la reción calidad-precio es buena, además el pedido llego un día antes de lo previsto. Yo trabajo desde casa y se adaptó perfecto al espacio y mis necesidades.

Since I have been quite of bit of hands-on data as well as report production and design work for the last few months, I recently tried several options for a portable monitor to use with my 14 Inch MacBook Pro. My requirements when I started were: light weight, single USB C/Thunderbolt (eg no separate power needed), and for it to be approximately the same size as the MacBook at least height-wise. With my first purchase (and return) I quickly found out that despite the many options all touting the same specs, I had to add a few requirements. Shape (needed it to be 14 wide), built-in ability to stand on its own vs a floppy cover solution, and most importantly, reasonably accurate color. Also, pass-through power is a very nice-to-have so that there's only one USB C Thunderbolt cable connected to the Mac and power can connect to the monitor and pass back through to the Mac through the one Thunderbolt cable. This monitor met all the requirements above. The color is -very- accurate. A side-by-side comparison to the other portables was instantly clear. No need to run through lots of tests (although I did try extensively to adjust them. The ThinkVision worked perfectly out of the box. Another really nice feature is the way they implemented the "kickstand". It's not really a kickstand but more of a fold-out base. The connections are built in to that which offset them from the edge of the screen unlike all the others, which means you can stand it up right against the Mac even with cables plugged into both sides. I -thought- I was going to have to trade off weight when comparing choices, but I am certain this is the same and possibly lighter than the Arzopa, my second choice. I don't have a precise scale to verify this. However I did a blind "place one in my hand" test and picked the lighter as the ThinkVision. If I can get my hands on a scale while I still have these I will update. Be aware that the specs claim the others are all lighter than the ThinkVision, which again I doubt. In any case, it is negligible either way. Lastly, as a nice feature, it comes with a felt sleeve. This is perfect for my bike bag and backpack to protect against scratches or worse. The one trade-off that is real is the price. This is approximately 90ish dollars more than several other appealing-looking options currently. Make no mistake, this monitor is worth that and more if you are planning to use it often at all. Personally I will always pay for true quality if a piece of equipment is clearly better than the rest. If you are a Mac user you probably feel the same. This monitor is a worthy companion for a road warrior, anyone who moves their work spot often, or just wants to keep their work space flexible.

It's well-built productivity monitor with excellent image quality for the price. Text is easy to read and colours are accurate (albeit slightly washed out). Like most IPS panels, the contrast ratio is just okay. Viewing angles are good. Brightness is acceptable, but glare can be an issue in some conditions, e.g. a window behind you during daylight. My 2021 Macbook Pro defaulted to driving this monitor at 960x540, but the image is perfectly sharp when "scaled" to its true native resolution of 1920x1080 -- though, with the Mac, that means UI text is quite small. However, if you're more than about 50cm away from the screen, the lower resolution may be preferable. I would prefer a somewhat higher pixel density, but at 14" the FHD resolution is an acceptable 157 PPI -- about 70% of what would be considered "HiDPI". I would also prefer a 16:10 aspect ratio over 16:9. I think 16:9 is an odd choice here, since this monitor is clearly intended for productivity rather than media consumption -- and most of Lenovo's own productivity-oriented ThinkPad laptops use 16:10 as well.

It's not going to change your life, but it's good for those cases when you need a second screen to carry around. Not great for outdoor working when the sun really shines, but will do the job when indoors. I like that it only needs one cable to connect to PC, no need to plug to outlet.
