• Looks good, thanks. I almost got the ThinkVision M14 because it has this nice adjustable base, and I knew the cover on the MSI would be crap in comparison, but the MSI had HDMI and speakers which won me over. The speakers are of course shit, but still, it's a lot more handy for a Raspberry Pi, old desktop, console etc.

  • How are you finding the portable screen?

    Reconsidering one depending on if/how much WFH equipment budget I get as my work laptop is tiny. I've got a spare monitor but as we've now got our dinning room back since setting up a corner in our bedroom for my OH I'm not too keen on having a big old monitor knocking around the room.

    Equally if anyone else is using one, I'd be keen to hear their thoughts.

    The low height has always been my concern.

  • Mine is ok.

    It's a bit dim compared to a laptop/monitor and eats the laptop battery but it does its job.

    You can get a whole variety of tablet stands for under £20 so you can have it in whatever position you want. Trouble is if you're using your laptop keyboard then that screen is already low down so you end up with them both low down.

    I'd say that is the major issue, if you're using that to save space/setup then you're probably not using a separate keyboard/mouse and you're limited by that.

  • Seems pretty good, the colours aren't terrible or anything like that and I've not had any problems with it connecting or whatever. I've not really used it for actual work I'm afraid - really as everyone else said the issue with it (if there is one) is that it might not be comfortable to work with a low down screen without a separate keyboard and mouse. I'm yet to try that.

    If that's not going to bother you due to to having it on a stand I'd say go ahead. You could maybe find smaller or larger one if you don't/do anticipate needing to travel with it, 15.6" is okay but quite a bit bigger than my 13" laptop.
