UPERFECT portable monitor freestanding touchscreen review

Design

 UPERFECT portable monitor freestanding touchscreen is a 15.6” monitor with HDR and integrated sturdy adjustable swivel kickstand. Measuring at 14.8 x 8.85 x 0.59 inches, it weighs 4.74 pounds.

Stand

The stand is built into the back of the monitor and swivels allowing you to use the monitor in either direction, which is quite useful (and more sturdy of a stand compared to using a flip case). The stand is durable and tight, so you know it won’t collapse on you. Its angle can be adjusted and it even has a leg that slides in and out for when you are using it in portrait mode.

Ports

It comes with everything you need for connectivity. Four different cables to make sure you always have data and power no matter the configuration. Of course, or favorite method will always be USB-C to USB-C if your system/dock supports video over USB-C. Fewer cables, less footprint, fewer things to drag around.

Resolution

The 3840×2160 resolution is coupled with a 60Hz refresh rate, and 3-5ms response time, which means this UPERFECT monitor is no slouch in the specifications department. It has both USB C and mini-HDMI connections, and appropriate cables in the box.

Brightness

The picture is nice and bright. The picture is crisp and looks great both for work and for videos. The touch screen works very well.

Performance

Having both HDMI and USB-C ports also makes it possible for me to use this monitor with lots of different devices (with the right cables/adapters). It works with my Google Pixel, iPhone 11, Nintendo Switch, and MacBook Air mid-2013 (the touchscreen does not work with my MacAir though since I have to use a mini DP to HDMI adapter).

 The touch screen can be used alone or in tandem with a keyboard and mouse for manipulating 3-dimensional objects in programs like google earth or 3-D drafting and design. It gives my desktop PC the functionality of a tablet in several applications where that is more convenient.

Alternate of UPERFECT Portable Monitor Freestanding

Asus Zenscreen Touch MB16AMT 

Pros

  • Touchscreen works well
  • Comes with a stylus
  • Both USB-C and HDMI/USB-A options
  • Internal battery

Cons

  • Heavier than non-touch models
  • Colors somewhat dull

There’s the same 1920×1080 resolution on a 15.6″ display, the same internal battery so you don’t need to draw power from your laptop, and the same muted color palette that’s common to pretty much every portable monitor except the Thinkvision M14.

If you’re used to having a touchscreen on your laptop display, there’s no reason you can’t have one on your second monitor as well. As the name suggests, the Asus Zenscreen Touch is the touch-enabled version of the Go model mentioned above, with almost exactly the same specifications.

The main difference, of course, is the screen. Multitouch-enabled, you’ll get full touch support on Windows and some Android devices, limited support on macOS (since it’s not built into the operating system,) and none on iOS. It’s relatively bright for a portable monitor, which is a nice change.

As with the non-touch model, you get an Asus e-ink pencil in the box, but here you can use it for more than holding the screen upright. Whether you’re using your finger or the stylus, the display is reliable and quick to respond to your input.

The Touch works over either USB C or the combination of micro-HDMI and USB-A, and all of the cables and adapters you need come in the box. There’s a pair of speakers built-in, which work fine but are probably no better than the ones you have on your laptop already.

Controlling the various settings is done via a single button on the bottom of the monitor that’s actually a five-way joystick. It’s one of the better approaches to menu navigation we’ve seen, but there’s also a Windows app that lets you configure many of the same settings.

Weighing only slightly more than it’s non-touch siblings, if you’re looking for the best portable touchscreen monitor of 2021, you’ve found it in the Asus Zenscreen Touch.
