> 3 dayThe biggest single point of failure on a laptop it is the hinges. I am concerned that this 5 pound monstrosity is going to put undue stress on those hinges and I’m gonna pay for it very heavily in the long run. I don’t know for sure but I do know that I have a handful of portable monitors that way under a pound, none of them are that fantastic and none of them connect to the laptop lid directly. I certainly love the idea and the convenience but I think the implementation here is just a little bit clunky. The monitor itself is smaller than your usual portable monitor and it doesn’t have near the resolution of the native MacBook screen nor the clarity so are you if you’re a person that needs everything to match this is not going to be the unit for you. That being said I got a decent usable picture out of it and I cannot say that for every portable monitor I’ve tried. Your mileage may vary but you’re going to have a larger set of icons off to the right. And you can only use this on the right side. This is not ambidextrous flip out. So that’s another thing to consider. Do you have the option to leave this permanently attached to your MacBook but you’re going to more than double the thickness so it’s another thing to think about. And the wait. I’m still trying to figure out why this thing is as heavy as it is. I still really love the idea and I think going forward future iterations of this product may get streamlined. And it does have a decent build quality to it. But if this thing ends up damaging the lid of my MacBook I’m going to come back here and give it a single star. I still have to check with the Apple people and make sure that this doesn’t somehow void the warranty by putting undue stress on the cover.

> 3 dayI tried this out for 1 week and I returned it for the following reasons: 1) Its heavy and bulky 2) The magnetic screen covers wont stay on 3) The monitor will swing open when closed (and the covers fall off). I did like that the power cord was built into the frame of the monitor because I HATE cords. Unfortunately the cons outweighed the one pro.

> 3 dayThe screen quality on this is just bad, I was very disappointed in it and for the price of close to 300 dollars I was expecting much better

Greater than one weekThis is a nifty second monitor for a laptop. It works really well and is detected well by my Macbook. The real issue I have with this is that Ive had trouble getting it to stay attached to my laptop. The adhesive is pretty good, but I think overall the setup is just a bit fragile. That might be because of the way I use it. Overall, though, if I can get it to stay on, it will be great. Not having a second monitor is one of the things I hate most about using a laptop. Theyre convenient, but working on one screen is difficult for me. This makes that not be an issue. Once I figure a way around the adhesive issue (which Im pretty sure is my fault) Ill use this all the time. Sure, it doubles the weight of my laptop, but I can manage for an extra screen.

Greater than one weekI wanted to like this product so much, but I had to return it after giving it a try. I love how sturdy and sleek it was, and the hidden cord was such a good touch. Very well designed with the exception of a few things: the screen is not bright/not the best resolution (especially if youre in the design field) and it is HEAVY. It would make my laptop screen flop back and it wasnt feasible to keep this attached at all times.
