    ・・・・・・・
    Portable USB-C monitors are fantastic pieces of tech. Having a second screen on the go with no need for power or anything more than a USB-C cable is not only productivity-boosting: it is freeing. Not long ago a multi-monitor setup was relegated to a desk setup and you simply lost that extra screen real estate when on the go.
    Today, we're unboxing a device that solves both of these issues and comes from a company we've honestly never heard of. I don't know much of anything about WIMAXIT, but I can tell you that this portable monitor is brighter than any that I've used and the touch input out of the box JUST WORKS. No drivers, no installs, no work whatsoever.

    I'm watching this vid on a little Wimaxit 10.1" screen right now. (I have it set like a "heads-up" display on a swinging arm on my desk. Rather than have a huge monitor dominating the room, I can have a high-resolution little monitor I can position appropriately and then push out of the way. I don't like my work space to look like the interior of an air traffic control booth).
    Anyway, I'm impressed with the company.
    My monitor has the ports inset on the back, so the cables are somewhat hidden when mounted. The one thing I don't like about most of these modern portables is that the cables stick out and seem vulnerable. I'd like to see a small inset plug on the back so that there is some better flexibility when positioning the screen on a desk or table top.

    • @markuskildemaa2351
      @markuskildemaa2351 5 лет назад

      Good idea about the inputs located at the back, however I think it would make the monitors a bit thicker, because the plug holes need depth room to work.

    • @MarkOakleyComics
      @MarkOakleyComics 5 лет назад +1

      @@markuskildemaa2351The plugs on the back would still go in sideways, they just don't stick out of the edge. That's what I mean by "inset". Lots of devices use this approach. It would probably add a few millimeters in thickness, but nothing that should be a problem.
      Devices are thin enough these days. After a certain point, who cares?

  • @NoobixCube
    @NoobixCube 5 лет назад +3

    For your full review, I'd really like to see some testing on latency for that monitor. If it's so versatile, I would want it to handle game consoles and things like that, too.
    Basically, my loungeroom setup has the TV, a Hori portable gaming monitor (excellent refresh rate, terrible viewing angles), and a matrix switcher for sending various devices to either screen. Nintendo Switch, nVidia Shield, DVD player, etc. I'd want it to be feasible to just drop this Wimaxit screen into my setup, and not notice any major latency if I use it for games.

    Very nice video, short and precise! Love that, a bit too expensive though. I have an Asus MB169C+, cheaper than this, only 1 USB-C port and no audio, but good enough to extend my PB functionality. But still good to see more products and they are definitely helpful on increasing productivity. One thing though, I know it's a sponsored by NordVPN but I think it would be nice if you could introduce how to use NordVPN on Chromebook easily in these videos or make one particular one. I am using VPN all the time (will change to NordVPN later this year) and found it very easy to use and having a peace of mind.

    "the speakers PROBABLY sound great" ??? what kind of review is this... lame!
