What would you use a portable monitor for? It's perfect for giving presentations to a small group seated at a conference table, and it's a great way to get additional screen real estate with any Mac. The monitor can only be used in landscape (wide) mode on the Mac and has a fixed resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels. The screen measures 16' diagonally, and has a foldout stand that props the monitor up at a slight angle. There's no power supply required you just plug the monitor into a USB port, and you're ready to go. Now AOC has released the e1649Fwu 16' Portable USB Monitor ($139.99) that is perfect for those situations where you want a second monitor for your MacBook Air or any other Mac.įor work with a laptop, the e1649Fwu is perfect.
If there's one issue that I have with it, it's that sometimes that screen seems just a little too small. As many TUAW readers know, I have a serious love affair with my 11' MacBook Air.
