After about a week, every computer I hook it up to keeps cutting in and out. Plus the magnets are not strong enough and it just feels flimsy. Good concept, bad in practice. Ended up getting a different screen and a stand to put it on and much happier.

Works as advertised, I have the Trio 14″ works with my dell laptop and allows me to have two screens while mobile. It hooks on fine and the magnet functionality is good. The only problem is a bought a 14″ for my 14″ lap top which is a touch too big as there is a bezel around the monitor it still works fine but think 12 would make it even better. Resolution and functionality exactly as advertised

Kickstand is a well designed item, but tearing rubber part in a second trial. I received a defective Trio Max and wanted to replacement, but it took more than two weeks to receive the replacement.

Just got my trio monitor today love it. Perfect for the work from home situation when I dont have room for a large, bulky secondary monitor. Been using it just a few hours and already feel more productive not having to switch between windows every 10 seconds.

1 port on my computer. How can I connect my 2 monitors?

The biggest pro of this product is that it’s light and effortless to install/uninstall anytime anywhere. I really enjoyed the flexibility it brings allowing me to take it to work outdoor or at a coffee shop in the summer time.Besides that, even I’m not a tech guy the initial set up didn’t take long nor was it complicated. Have had it for 2 weeks now. No issue so far.

I like Trio very much.. A total of 4 Trio were purchased these days. I use two Trio on two different brands of computers. Two of them are 14 inches for Macbook pro 15″ (2015) and the other two Trio are 12.5″ for Asus Zenbook Duo 14″. They perfectly fit for the above computers. If one would like to use two Trio on Macbook pro 15″ (2015) might need a kickstand for the other Trio since Trio can get signals for c-c but signals from HDMI, eg. HDMI-c. I personally like Trio 12.5″ installed on Asus Zenbook Duo with Type C port, which no trouble in installation. I could use it as soon as I plugged the data cable into Type C port. Instead, I spent much more time to make Trio Max work because my Macbook Pro is an old type without Type C port. Now, my little Trio family work very well. I can see several different webpages and chat rooms at the same time. I like Trio because it is a product user-friendly.

I used to have to search for something on my iPad and use that as a secondary monitor. The two monitors that I bought give me everything that I truly needed in my iPad.

These monitors fit my laptop perfectly. They’re easy to setup and install. Lightweight and the resolution is great. Fantastic for working on the go. The only downfall for me is that the magnets sometime interfere with a laptop that converts to a tablet. Otherwise I’m very happy with the product. I would recommend and purchase again

I work in various locations such as coffee shops, restaurants, and the couch in friends’ homes. Sometimes I need to do research or reference notes, and having a second monitor makes it much easier to do than switching windows on one screen. The Duex Pro Portable Monitor first caught my attention because in most places I work away from home I barely have room for my laptop, let alone a second monitor, and this attached monitor makes that a moot point.At first I was hesitant because of the price, but since I’ve had it (over 3 months now), it’s been worth the money. Mounting and preparation for use are very easy. It came with the cable and magnets for mounting to three laptops. . The picture quality is great.Helps you be more efficient. Wife thought it was super cool and wants to get one for her mom and friends.Recommend to all

The monitors are excellent quality, exactly what I was looking for to take on the road with me and work remotely. I love them and I’m glad I made the purchase. Since my partner also works remotely, we bought two of these so that we could have the flexibility of each of us using one, OR one of us using both. He also loves that he can use the display modes to mirror his screen to a customer sitting opposite him. All of this functionality works great.However, when using TWO of these to connect to your laptop and have a three-monitor setup, there are some caveats that weren’t very clear (or I underestimated) upon purchase. They do work, and the quality and function is pretty good, but it is very bulky. As it does clearly state in the instructions, the mounting setup requires that it rests on a flat surface. It is NOT capable of supporting two monitors without tipping over your laptop, unless they are resting on something for support. This makes it difficult to work on any soft or angled surface (such as your lap, or on your hotel bed, or even on an angled laptop tray). Each monitor has to be connected separately, so there are cables running around every side of your computer. Also, only one powered USB-C can be connected at a time. After hours of trying to find some sort of dock with two, video capable, powered USB-C connections, I learned this is a limitation of the technology, but I found it rather irritating that they seem to go out of their way to omit this from the instructions. In any case this meant that the second monitor was not plug and play as I’d hoped; I had to call corporate IT and have the drivers installed to run the second monitor from a regular USB connection.Overall, I would absolutely buy these again. The quality was so impressive for the size that I almost feel bad giving them 4 stars instead of 5. However, the manufacturer differentiates these from others by advertising the ability to connect two of them at once, so IMO they need to work on making that setup a bit cleaner – or at a minimum, be more transparent about how it will work in practice.

This is great monitor. I swapped out a Mobile Pixel Duex Pro for this Trio, because the pixel size was bit larger and easier on my old eyes. Thsi monotor is just a hair smaller than my 15″ 2017 Macbook Pro and is a eprfect fit. I’ve used it on the left and the right side of my MacBook. I normally use it on my desk in my home offcie, but have used it on an airplae as well as a “movie monitor”. It attaches securly to my laptop and removes easily.

The product is really good for those looking for a 2nd display. It’s easy to use and power source from computer is great. Service is very good too. I think a separate stand and ability to angle the screen would be excellent improvements.

Says compatible with android smartphones. But I just get a flashing screen. And no info from mobile pixels. Why sell a product and advertise compatibility with android smartphones? With no troubleshooting support anywhere. None in user manual. None on website… please stop advertising that feature unless there’s something showing how to set that up.. I guess I ordered something that I can not use. I have one of the newer Samsung galaxy phone… and that’s not working

I like being able to use more than one screen while I am doing online teaching. It was easy to attach and hookup and worked automatically. Only issue I have is when I am online and change screens or open a new tab on the pixel, it flickers and closes my programs. Then the screen turns off and then restarts. A little frustrating. But without that, it is very cool to use.

We ordered two of the Trio Max for one laptop and the magnets are barely strong enough to hold one, let alone two. And just opening the screen pulls it off the magnets. We re very disappointed. Two screens slide right off. They need to be powerful earth magnets with a shield on the back side so they wont interfere with the screen but strong enough to hold two of your screens. Clearly, these arent and should never be advertised as such. Double sided tape is the only solution which just renders your solution useless.

My 2 sons both wanted a second monitor to be able to either write papers or work while on a virtual meeting . This is the perfect fit for both ! In addition it can flip around if wanted for presentation. I bought it for one son and am buying for the other , they are both in college . We are very happy with the quality of the screen . The price sure beats having a second computer .
