I took the extra step to sign in and then sub because this is such a quality video. Keep up the quality and pump out the videos and your subs are gonna go up up up
Thank you. I don’t have the time to make as many videos as I would like to, but when I can, I really try and appreciate the positives when they come in. Glad you enjoyed, more stuff coming soon.
Thanks for the video. Looking to buy this thing, was pretty hard to find info on whether this thing work with the PS or not. Very helpful, great guide 👍
I filmed the footage ages ago but due to work commitments I never finished it and just assumed there was plenty of content out there already. I probably could still finish at some point.
@@nermaldigital Oooh I see... No problem, sorry for asking hehehe But I am really interest in buying an Ipad and a Macbook, so I could use the touch with them. Do you think that now with IpadOS that is possible? [:
Good evening, I would like to ask for your help. At minute 3:03 you used an adapter, which adapter did you need to use on the PS4 to send power to the portable monitor?
No. No noticeable lag. Although I did find for darker more realistic games, the lower brightness on the Zenscreen wasn't ideal. But for more colourful games it's perfectly adequate
Hey! What power does that powerbank/external battery output? 15v and 2.6 A/39W is needed, as I read, so I am curious. Also your findings are relevant to the not touch version of this display, am I right?
Thanks and glad you enjoyed. No, the Switch Lite definitely has no video output capacity at all but people asked thinking that the USB C DisplayPort might be possible instead of HDMI , so why I included to show it doesn’t.
@@christophenguyen5340 if I recall , it’s something to do with the Voltage for the switch , Nintendo can’t guarantee that other power supply’s will give the correct voltage the switch needs to run, the only reason I know this is I thought I’d lost mine , but thankfully I eventually found it in a box .
Great video! I had a question about using a Firestick on the device in order to use streaming services (Netflix, Prime, etc.) Would the Firestick be able to be connected to the micro HDMI connection?
Thanks for the demonstration! Just a quick thought, would the touch screen work with the Nintendo switch plugged in? As the Switch also have a touch screen.... hmmm... by the way, thoroughly enjoyed this video, definitely my sort of interest!
excelent video! i tried the nintendo switch with 3rd party dock (i used my satechi, the same i use on my macbook) didnt work :( is there any configuration i must make? thanks a lot
Is the Satechi dock a HDMI adapter? I Know Satechi brand and most of their stuff is Thunderbolt which the Switch doesn't support. But if it's a standard USB-C to HDMI adapter then it will be the power input, so try it with the official Nintendo power adapter or a PD (Power Delivery) certified charger
Hey Tom. Great video, and your graphics are cool too. I invested in a 3rd party adapter for my switch and set up my Switch (without dock) exactually as you show, but I cant get it to work. Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong? Maybe a setting on the Switch or the Zen? Thanks for any help...
Hi man, you are good with those devices and all the connections, how can I connect Asus Zenscreen MB16AC (with only one USB-C port, w/o battery) to the smartphone which does not support usb alt mode? (Google Pixel 5). Basically, I wanna split the power and signal and merge into one usb-c for the Zenscreen. Thanks!
Yeah, you will likely find that the USB output from your notebook will also be able to provide constant power all day. So just one plug socket for your notebook will provide power for both with HDMI set up.
Just missing there one big thing . Will be work on gaming pc ? I wanted buy this screen for Cold War and I want plug into rtx 3060 video port to that portable monitor.
Hi, did all exactly as you did on Nintendo Switch but it doesn’t work. Only with normal source (Power bank is not enough and won’t connect). Any ideas? Tks
Will the zen book run off a usb c plug (ie a usb-c one or an apple plug) that way all need to do is plug in a Hdmi to Micro hdmi ? Edit: just realised this isn’t the one that I was just about to buy in Argos tomorrow , 😐 they don’t have this model.
Yeah. Via USB A it just works like a standard touch screen input device with Windows 10. But if you have a USBC 3.2 port on your machine, then it will do both video and touch via the single cable.
Like the PlayStation it will work via HDMI only. So just make sure you buy a version with HDMI. As there are some versions of the Zenscreen range that only have USBC DisplayPort.
Yes! The only thing missing compared to the one I reviewed here is tough screen. But that isnt functional for games consoles, so the MB16AHP is perfect.
No In short. PS5 doesn’t do DP video output. There might be a converter somewhere for HDMI to DisplayPort but then there’s the power issue. It would probably be more expensive than just buying a HDMI upgrade.
I have the mb16ac the device don't have a hdmi in, just type c but if i buy HDMI to type c is it work with ps5? HDMI to ps5 type c in the screen.! Please help...
@@nermaldigital , thank you so much, I almost bought it, because I really need such a portable screen, which is mainly used on the switch, and my switch is the first generation, I don’t know which one can be applied to the old switch
Are you saying you have video out running from USBC to USBC only? How is this possible? What's the brand of cable you are using? Switch needs additional power to initiate video output.
Great video, you deserve far more views. You answered literally all of my questions, most of which I wasn’t expecting you to - thanks!
This is exactly what I was looking for!
Many of these are things I was going to try myself, so this video is awesome to see!

What an incredible video about this product.
Excellent presentation.
That PS5 beep is freaking 📢

Great information! Thanks for putting this together
Great video review ! keep it up brother 😎
Thanks for doing this video👍.
I asked Asus support in my country but they couldn't give me a clear answer, which is annoying
Really usefule and informative video, thank you!
Hi Tom! Great video! I am looking forward for the Apple test video! [:

I enjoyed this and will try that switch set up
Thank you very much for this video 👍🏼
amazing review, keep it up :)
This might be nice monitor for retro gaming..with upscaler like Medusa or OSSC.
Good evening, I would like to ask for your help. At minute 3:03 you used an adapter, which adapter did you need to use on the PS4 to send power to the portable monitor?

what are the products used to set up the switch and connect to the monitor?
I had to check and confirm to see if it will work on the Xbox Series S and it does
Thx mate 👍
thanks for the video. To my knowledge, switch lite can't be hooked up to any monitor.
Thanks and glad you enjoyed. No, the Switch Lite definitely has no video output capacity at all but people asked thinking that the USB C DisplayPort might be possible instead of HDMI , so why I included to show it doesn’t.
Hi, great video review.
Which usb-c to hdmi powered adapter did you use for the switch ? Can we find it on amazon ?
Hi Christophe, search on your local Amazon for "B078RZQJ8D" that's the HDMI adapter I used. Only use with the official Nintendo power supply though.
@@nermaldigital thanks. Why is it necessary to use only official nintendo adapter ? Any real risk to use a powerbank or 3rd party usb hub ?
@@christophenguyen5340 in short bursts it’s probably ok but long term I’ve found it’s impacted battery performance.

Does this work with rog ally or steam deak

Send me a pic on instagram @djnermal or Twitter @nermaldigital and I’ll check your set up. Might just be adapter.

Hi Tom, if I am connected with HDMI to my notebook, can I connect to the network with its charger via USB C to keep it powered all day?

What about the steam deck? WOuld that work for single cable?
Which third party doc did you use for the Switch?
Hi, did all exactly as you did on Nintendo Switch but it doesn’t work. Only with normal source (Power bank is not enough and won’t connect). Any ideas? Tks
Hi may I know what brand/model of powerbank you are using?
Are Speakers available?
What was that dongle you used for the switch
Does the screen work with an Amazon FireTV?
Do i need the power cable to start the ps4
For the zenscreen can i connect it in my laptop using usb c then connect my ps5 using the hdmi thru that i can use my streamlab to screen capture it
will the hdmi to usbc work in the dock?
Does this also with asus zen screen mb168a to?
Will the zen book run off a usb c plug (ie a usb-c one or an apple plug) that way all need to do is plug in a Hdmi to Micro hdmi ?
Edit: just realised this isn’t the one that I was just about to buy in Argos tomorrow , 😐 they don’t have this model.
Does it have built in speaker?
does it have input lag playing from ps5?
Working with xbox s?
Does the touch screen work when using the USB A adapter with a windows 10 device.
Yeah. Via USB A it just works like a standard touch screen input device with Windows 10. But if you have a USBC 3.2 port on your machine, then it will do both video and touch via the single cable.
Can the USB be plug in to a cube and be charge all the time
Yes. If using the HDMI mode, the USB-C port is free to be connected to a power source.
Could you please suggest how to connect Nintendo Switch to the Asus AP model that has only one single USB-C port?
You can’t. You have to have a HDMI enabled version to use with Nintendo Switch.
@@nermaldigital thank you for your reply. By the way, would it be possible to use any USB-C hub that has 1 HDMI, 2 USB-C (Power & Data), etc.?
Can I also use this for my Xbox one ? I want to buy it urgently but just need to know if it works😅
Like the PlayStation it will work via HDMI only. So just make sure you buy a version with HDMI. As there are some versions of the Zenscreen range that only have USBC DisplayPort.
Does Asus zenscreen go MB16AHP works with Playstation 5?
Yes, via HDMI.
Im planning to buy the Asus Zenscreen MB16AHP does they have the same function? Purpose of buying is for gaming console only! Please reply Thanks!
Yes! The only thing missing compared to the one I reviewed here is tough screen. But that isnt functional for games consoles, so the MB16AHP is perfect.
@@nermaldigital Thank you 🙏
can this monitor on without usb charger
Yeah. You can charge from console USB or use the battery for about 2 hours without a USB cable.
I have the only usb zenscreen model, is there any way of using it with PS5?
No In short. PS5 doesn’t do DP video output. There might be a converter somewhere for HDMI to DisplayPort but then there’s the power issue. It would probably be more expensive than just buying a HDMI upgrade.
@@nermaldigital many thanks
I have the mb16ac the device don't have a hdmi in, just type c but if i buy HDMI to type c is it work with ps5?
HDMI to ps5 type c in the screen.!
Please help...
Hi a year later, did you solve your question?
So, if I buy this one , I can not use for Nintendo Switch ? I thought this one is good for switch
The OG switch Yes via HDMI. So only models of the Zenscreen with HDMI and using the dock. No DisplayPort via USB C.
@@nermaldigital , thank you so much, I almost bought it, because I really need such a portable screen, which is mainly used on the switch, and my switch is the first generation, I don’t know which one can be applied to the old switch
@@fangu5759 if you don’t need the touch screen element, try the Zenscreen Go MB16AHP as a little cheaper. Or try the Espresso display.
does it work on xbox series x ?
Yes via HDMI.

Never use anything to power your switch other than the official power adapter
Totally agree and good point. You will damage the Nintendo battery using non Ninty charger regularly. I probably should have said this on the video
Ah..really? I always charge it with my Anker powerbank or Anker powerport. Will it damage my NS?
@@nuchielee68 the NS doesn't use USB power delivery (PD) which is the norm that all these devices use. So yes it can damage your switch.
Does asus mb14ac can play ps4..pls help
Only if it has HDMI in. I’m not familiar with this model. If USB C only, then no.
If i buy type c to hdmi sir?
I just looked for you and the AC is USBC (Displayport only) the AH model also has HDMI
Meaning can ? Haha..sorry im not understnd
@@TheOtvirgo the MB16AH is the cheapest Zenscreen model that comes with HDMI for PS4
I Own a Nintendo Switch, I only play with USB C to USB C, need to have maybe a different cable, sorry if this comment is a bit later :D
Are you saying you have video out running from USBC to USBC only? How is this possible? What's the brand of cable you are using? Switch needs additional power to initiate video output.
@@nermaldigital I connected a power bank and usb C cable, the cable came with my monitor, isnt like yours, its from Blitzwolf
@@Miguel-uz7to what video input is going into your monitor? I'm assuming you are using an adapter to connect power and the monitor, as only one port.
@@nermaldigital no adapter, just a power bank usb C to usb on monitor, and usb C to usb C switch.
So what the fuck is the point of the USB-C one? Why even make a product that is good for nothing LOL
Does this work with Xbox series s
Via HDMI yes. So like PlayStation, you need video via HDMI and charge/power via USB.
Hi mate does that come with it?
