So far, so very good
Highlights:* crisp image;* accurate touch;* 16:10 aspect ratio;* touch functionality worked with minimal fuss on MacOSI use this monitor in a music production home studio, where I mounted it on VESA-compatible arm*, hovering over a MIDI controller. I connect it to a Mac Studio and use touch to control Logic Pro, plug-ins and AxeEdit III.It works really well for this application. I am able to adjust plug-in and AxeFX parameters with simply a touch and without much fuss. And the vTouch suite seems sufficiently powerful for me to add a couple of quality of life improvements (e.g. multi-finger gestures forVESA Mounting: because this is a portable monitor, it doesn’t have VESA mounting facilities. The portable cover is cool, and I didn’t want to lose this functionality, so I just used some adhesive metal plates and mounted neodymium magnets the VESA receiver bracket. Mags are strong and monitor is light enough to make this a sufficiently sturdy solution.

Works very well as it advertises. We like it very much.
I just bought on On Thanksgiving. I received it on 11/29. I have being using it since then. It works very well as it advertises on Amazon. Great quality. Sharp display and color is very nice to us. 10 points screen gesture works for computer very well, but not for cell phone 15. It has 2 speaker. OK sound quality. But, this helps lot when we connect it to our Iphone 15.

Touchscreen for a Mac
I’ve used this with my MacBook, and with my Mac Mini. Provides touch screen access to a Mac, but you do need to load a driver for that. Nice, bright, clear screen. More than a little pricey, but I am getting my money’s worth out of it.

Great Touch Screen Monitor, BUT ….
Very nice touch screen 2K resolution monitor. Works perfect with a touch screen laptop. Love the single 2-way power USB C cable. The display is excellent. With that said I find 2 faults, not big things for me at this time, with this monitor. 1. If you connect this monitor to a desktop gaming computer with a larger non touchscreen monitor, in order for you to make the touch screen work you must make this portal monitor the primary monitor. 2. The smart cover built in stand is cheap and stupid at best. Other than that, this monitor is great.

Great portable, self-powered screens
I have two of these that I connect to a laptop and lighting console. I need stands for them because of the weird application, but the biggest win here is that they’re powered over USB-C, so you only need one cable (provided your ports can output the juice). They’re more than adequately bright for my use, and they feel durable and heavy enough that they’re not going to bend or break. Truly portable gear. The resolution is also appropriate for my use case.

connect to lightning bolt usb
works great now that i figured it out, but took me a while so only 3 stars. to make it run on my laptop, it must be plugged into the USB C with the lightning bolt on my laptop. plugging into other USB crashed my computer, caused glitches, made the computer very slow. suspect it was due to inadequate power from other USB outlets

The negative reviews are mostly user error
Bought in 2022 I use this monitor as a 2nd monitor while full screen gaming on my main monitor. Great for managing voice chat, and web browsing while in game. Great glass monitor. After reading all the negative reviews I thought I’d shed some light on the “issues”. HDMI only carries picture and sound data, windows will assign a generic monitor driver. If you want touch screen the monitor must be plugged in also with USB. To configure the touchscreen to work properly you must go to windows display and configure the monitor, it will default to being a touch screen FOR the main monitor. Not all usbC are created the same, I have intel integrated graphics with thunderbolt. With this I can run my main monitor with my gpu, and this secondary monitor off of the integrated gfx with just 1 thunderbolt from the computer to the viewsonic touch screen. No hdmi or separate USB power. In summary most negative reviews are user error.

Flight Simulator Touchscreens
I purchased 2 screens for a flight simulator to be used with Air Manager. They worked perfectly out of the box. They work perfectly everytime I turn on my machine. They did cost double the price of the generic screens, but avoiding the hassle and headache was well worth it.I had previously purchased 2 “Prechen” generic screens and had to return them. They did not work as Advertised. I tried using 2 cables, 3 cables, new cables, adjusting windows settings, and graphic card settings. They failed miserably. The touch screen would only work sometimes, power would come and go, and resolution would change everytime I restarted the computer. I struggled with the generic screens for a week, but ultimately had to return them.If you are setting up a flight sim. You have already spent a fortune. Don’t cut corners on your touch screens. If you read any of the YouTube comments or Community board discussions, nearly every topic is about someone struggling with thier WIMAXIT touchscreens. Don’t waste your time.

Es un monitor pequeño y si eso estás buscando, como yo, es perfecto, no estorba, no pesa no causa problemas de acomodo ni de transporte.No funciona con iOS de iphone, con android sí, es algo que ya me esperaba… Al convertirse en táctil al conectarlo a una pc debes instalar ciertos drivers y conectar otro cable, digo esto porque yo me asusté pensando que compré la versión no touch y resulta que solo era necesario eso. Al conectar esos cables extra se convierte ahora sí en algo más estorboso pero tampoco nada exagerado. Tiene un stylus o lapiz bastante rústico que bien podría mejorarse pero como yo no planeaba dibujar ni nada que demandase algo más allá de navegar por el sistema operativo me resulta suficiente.Al conectar este monitor como monitor secundario en una pc, el touch no sirve, necesita ser el monitor principal y eso a veces causa pequeños problemitas, aunque nada de real cuidado.Tiene una patita trasera que sirve bastante bien, permite varias posiciones de acomodo, no parece ser muy resistente y a veces me da la impresión que no durará mucho, los ángulos que se logra con dicha patita no son tampoco muy variados pero son suficientes para lo que se requiera.Los colores del monitor, creo que es su lado más débil… son colores muy opacos, saturando todo y moviéndole mucho a los parámetros se logra algo decente, pero si es un punto malo, si lo buscas para algo de edición no creo que sea lo mejor.El menú o sistema operativo interno del monitor es bastante común, se maneja bien, solo hay que agarrarle el modo.Es un buen monitor secundario, es muy portátil, es una excelente compra, lo recomiendo bastante!

I wanted a single USB-C cable to provide everything: power, video and touch. However, the only way I could get all three working with my Lenovo ThinkPad running Linux Mint was by connecting all 3 cables. I sent it back and will be purchasing Lenovos own portable display!

This is not the cheapest portable touchscreen monitor but it’s worth it. Good quality, smart design with the flip-out support like the Microsoft Surface Pro, easy to connect and works right out of the box. All necessary cables included and a USB-C charger. The charger is not required when connecting the screen via USB to the computer. Menu joystick on the back is not ideal but it works.

No llegue a hacer que la parte tactil funcione. Por eso lo quise devolver pero ya no me dejan – habian puesto 3 fechas distintas para devolverlo.
