I don't often write reviews for monitors because in general, they either work or don't work (and usually in the first 5 minutes of your most demanding purpose.. you either print out the return label or toss the box it came in).. but this is a TRAVEL monitor.. which carries a different set of rules.. (for the record, I ditched the box)Just for an understanding of who I am.. I'm a person that travels a lot and basically keeps a mobile desk.. Laptops, additional screens, tablets, multiple phones, peripherals up the wazoo, and so many cables/adapters that if I could trade them for money, I would be a millionaire (small).So now that we have established the player.. on to the show.The simple, It's a monitor. And unlike its MB16AHP brother, this one lacks a speaker.. but this monitor is geared towards being an extension of a tablet/phone rather than a computer so that's not really a negative.. But it's a touch screen monitor. I use this with my mac and windows laptops.. (Windows recognizes this as a touch screen and loads appropriately.. sadly with OSX, you have to get a 3rd party driver (Using the Touch Base driver (it only supports 9 points vs. the monitor can do 10).. I wish Asus would include this somehow, but as the driver is about 150 dollars for a single install.. not sure if that's feasible.. but tis the price we Mac people pay.. *sniff*. Just something to think about Asus.The colours are rendered pretty accurately.. (primary monitor is Adobe 1998 colour calibrated.. and this after adjusting is pretty much on-par with the primary). Something I find is often an issue with monitors of different types/brands (especially travel ones)No flicker was detected even with some games (tested with Battlefront, and Witcher 3).. Low light is pretty solid (I tend to do a lot on airplanes at night, so a monitor that is solid in low/no light is important and this little baby is perfect with that.The battery life isn't bad (rated for 4 hours, I got about 3 hours and 35 minutes of use out of it (might have gotten a little more if I drop the brightness down.. but still 3.5 hours for a 15 inch screen is pretty good.. my macbook pro 15 does about the same with all the bells turned on.. so it matches with my primary use case well) .. (you can switch between using the onboard battery with phones/tablets) or cable charging (from a computer/desktop).. The screen doesn't "auto-rotate" but it can be rotated in software (via driver) or in the setup (via local controls). About the only thing am not so keen on is I wish the bezel was thinner.. but as it is, its pretty good.. When traveling, I use it vertically.. and when "local", horizontally.. when vertical its perfect as the screen clips don't take up any screen real estate, but horizontally... I'm taking up space and a half-inch on a 15" screen matters.. (especially if gaming). (but that's more when I want it mounted the way I have it in the picture.. otherwise I would just use the included cover/stand. (a la apple tablet)Some suggestion for purchasers.While this is geared toward tablet/phone purchasers.. Apple users will need a lightening to HDMI adapter (until apple starts supporting Type C like everyone else). so plan accordingly. For laptop/Desktop people its a little easier.Also take the time to go on Asus support site to get an explanation of all the options (I wish they would have included a printed book, but then again, I remember that had they did that, I would have tossed it away and gone to their site when I needed it.. so makes sense.. save a few trees because most of us won't really read the book until we NEED to).Yes, its a little more expensive than most of the other ones out there.. But I honestly found this one to be worth the money (and I don't say that lightly.. I have 4 mouths to feed, and a wife that believes tech = drugs (ie: both should be avoided whenever possible) so anything I spend has to be worth it (near term and long term). (its thin, light, has a battery (most don't.. only wish it would flow OUT to use as a secondary power source/battery pack) good resolution (1600x900 max).. and no ghosting for gaming.. (a lot of the cheap ones are fine for "work" (word processing, a few excel spreadsheets, or other graphically undemanding tasks.. but the second you put something with a high refresh rate.. you start seeing ghosting so bad you think the meds have kicked in (or worn off) then its not the one to get.In other words.. very nice Asus.. keep it up.
