MSI PRO MP161 E2 15.6 Inch Full HD Portable Monitor - 1920 x 1080 IPS Panel, 60Hz, Eye-Friendly Screen (PC, Laptop, Mobile), Speakers, Enhanced Chassis & Kickstand - Mini-HDMI 2.0b, 2 x USB Type-CEnergy Label

(£78.95 Dec 2024) Incredibly light, good stand on the back, good connectivity and good enough sound for this form factor.Multi-inputs are brilliant. 2x Usb-c, 1x mini-hdmi, you get a right angled Usb-C with it. It works as a second screen for my laptop and one cable for power and sound/video is awesome - obviously, your laptop MUST have the support for this, not all laptops do.It's also connected via the mini-Hdmi to my desktop, so you can have a second screen option without having to swap cables around or use a switch.The carry case is lovely. You might need to get some extra Usb C cables, definitely worth going for good quality ones. A mini Hdmi adapter is a better shout than a Usb C to mini Hdmi cable, you are for more likely to have a spare Hdmi cable, than a Usb C to mini Hdmi cable lying around, just in case you lose or forget the cable or if the cable fails. Also, U-shaped adapters are the best choice, you can safely route them from the back and that is far better than having 2 or 3 unsightly cables trailing from the side of the screen where they will constantly figure in your peripheral vision.If you need one and can get it for less, just get it. There are lots of cheaper options from stupidly named companies to choose from, don't bother - get one from a trusted brand that has been in the game for a very, very long time. MSI are one of my goto choices for pc hardware, along with Gigabyte, you know what comes out of the box is more likely to last for a long time at a high standard.Being portable, you can take it on your travels with you and you won't notice the weight.Great piece of kit.

So far so good with this, the screen is sharp and colourful as well as being really light. This quality has helped with my work and as long as it doesn’t fail, I think it’s value for money.

Bought this to use with a Fire TV stick in my camper. The 1/4" threaded adaptor mount made it easy to use a Gopro adjustable arm to clamp it to the passenger seat of my camper. Speakers are not very loud, but not a problem since the Fire stick connects via Bluetooth to my headphone. Powered from a USB-c socket on a dual 12v power socket adaptor, with the TV stick using the USB A port. Icture quality is excellent - same as my HP Elitebook's full HD screen. Was considering an Android tablet but few that have a 15.6" screen were affordable.

I must admit, I bought this half expecting that I would send it back. No way. I am genuinely amazed at the quality of this little monitor.Bought the 15" version. It is SO light. Really well made stand on the back - feels really solid and not at all flimsy. Excellent that it can rotate to allow the monitor to stand vertically - great for coding or reading long documents.The display is perfect for general needs. For remote working its perfect. I am happy to use it for photography and lightroom while I am away travelling or on the road. (obviously, its not going to have the same colour rendition as a large professional monitor).I'm really really happy with this monitor. I still can't believe that we can make monitors now that are this small and light and have such decent image quality. Amazing.

Out of the box, worked just fine on HDMI, but the sound is excessively quiet, with MAx volume on the Monitor and PC Mixer, I could barely hear a youtube video that I checked on my laptop was really loud through the laptop speakers.The USB C input just doesn't work at all. I tried with my Phone and two separate laptops, all of which have previously been connected to USB screens with no drivers or setup required.The display itself is nice and clear, but it's going back because it doesn't work with anything that I bought it to work with due to the USB not working.Total Garbage

I am so impressed with this portable monitor that I am still collecting my jaw since I started using it :)But seriously it is fantastic and when on offer it is really worth buying this one over some unbranded alternatives.The most impressive feature I like is that you can use it simply from a usb-c connection. Just plug and play a single cable and voilla.Of course if needed you can always use the HDMI that is provided if the device that you are using does not have usb-c connectivity.I use it on a daily basis and it is a blessing.I also tried it with the Steam Deck as an external screen and the experience is great.I also like that you get 1080p in such a small form factor.The kickstand is pretty adjustable. One thing I would like to see is a dedicated mount that could be purchased as an accessory but you can find plenty of those that allow you to do this online.This is a true portable monitor that is only as thick as a tablet.Love it.If you register it with MSI you get 24 months warranty by a reputable manufacturer.One more thing worth mentioning is the spongy travel pouch that you get with the monitor.If you're thinking of buying one don't hesitate. Just get it you won't regret it.

The screen itself is ok, stand is handy, but the HDMI cable doesn't light u MacBook. The sub c cable works but the resolution / screen sharpness is poor when use side by side with the MacBook screen

Happy with the screen, wouldn’t use for high end performance requirements such as video editing or gaming but for office (work) on the go, a single cable yields an extra screen. Brilliant.
