Portable Monitors

Portable monitors add a second screen to a laptop without taking over the desk. In a home office they’re handy for keeping a spreadsheet open next to your emails, and they fold away into a drawer or bag when you’re done for the day.Almost everything we stock is a 15.6-inch, Full HD (1080p) screen, a size that sits comfortably beside most laptops. The main thing to check is the connection. A single USB-C cable can carry picture and power, but only if your laptop’s USB-C port supports video output, so check your laptop’s specs first. Otherwise you’ll need HDMI plus a separate power lead. Look for a kickstand or smart cover that props the screen up, and VESA mounting holes if you’d like to fix it to a monitor arm later.See more home office technology accessories, or read our home office ideas.
