OLED Portable Monitor 16", 3K 2880x1800 120Hz 0.1ms Portable Gaming Display，500 Nits Brightness| 100000:1 Contrast| 100% DCI-P3| 8-Bit+FRC| Ultra-Slim Travel Monitor for Laptop PC Phone Game Consoles

I bought this monitor because it claimed to be bright, and I wanted something that would pair well with my 5K iMac display, which is one of the better panels out there. I had a similar 16" 2560x1600 monitor that I used with my other Mac setup and wanted something at least as good. This edition (4K, 3840x2400, 1200 nits) appears to be a well made product. It comes up as 1920x1200 on the Mac (3840x2400 becomes 1920x1200 due to quad pixel density), which is a good size for readability and very sharp. I use it as a secondary screen for reading a lot of code and text, and the readability is very good, with sharp text on a deep black background. I use the USB-C cable to my Mac, and that provides both power and connectivity. A right angle USB cable helps make the monitor look better. It does flash a poorly worded message at startup that I believe may be related to less than full power from a single USB-C cable but it goes away in a few seconds. It does not flicker and is plenty bright. I run it at 70% brightness and it is similar in brightness to my Mac display, though I run the Mac at about 70% brightness also. This is not an HDR display (does not even have HRD as an option). Minor complaint: It is a little thicker than some of the portable monitors that are out there, but I don't use it for that purpose. In general, this is a strong choice. Also, it appears to be made by the same factory in China that make the UPerfect brand of monitors because the box, packaging and internal cables look identical.

The Newsoul 3k OLED portable monitor is an excellent display and product. Screen Quality: A prime example of OLED technology. Saturated colors and perfect blacks. Completely blows any IPS display out of the water. This screen gets plenty bright, although, the glossy coating means you should keep this indoor. Use this monitor in SDR. HDR content is best suited for displays that can reach brightness far in excess of the advertised 500 nits. If you are worried about color performance, you cannot beat infinite contrast and saturation of OLED. Stick with SDR. The display is very sharp with a PPI (pixels per inch) of 212 — higher than a 27" 4K monitor (163 PPI) and just shy of the MacBook Air's 224 PPI. As with most portable monitors, VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) or FreeSync is not supported. To avoid screen tearing, lock your framerate to a supported refresh rate (60Hz, 100Hz, or 120Hz). Onto Connectivity and Usage: No need to mess with settings, just plug in the video USB-C and power cable. Colors look great out of the box but if you want to adjust the RGB or sharpness, that is available in OSD. Mini-HDMI port works fine, but doesn’t offer enough bandwidth for 120Hz at native resolution. To unlock the monitor’s full resolution and refresh, (2880x1800 at 120Hz), use a USB-C cable. Also, connect a power cable. Value for money: A great deal at 250 dollars. The 4k OLED portable monitors go for more than 400 dollars or even as high as 700 dollars. The 4k OLED portable monitors also are only 60 Hz, similar to the 1080p ones. So you get both a high resolution and higher refresh for less money with this product. My Takeaway Initially, I experienced a screen issue, but Newsoul’s customer support resolved it quickly and professionally. That, combined with the excellent product quality, made this a positive experience.

Great monitor overall—excellent colors, perfect blacks, and a clean picture. The 2880x1800 resolution is a bit odd though. On weaker machines, it doesn’t scale cleanly down to 1200p like 4K does to 1080p. If you need to ease the load, keep it at native resolution and use DLSS or FSR (Performance mode) instead of lowering the resolution. Running it at 1200p still looks fine, just a little soft. For regular desktop use or word processing, it works great. Thanks to OLED's per-pixel lighting, it's nice to drop the brightness or use a warmer background color at night and not have a glaring backlight keeping you up. The brightness indoors goes beyond what I'd suspect most people would need. I keep my screen between 30–50% brightness; 100% exceeds my needs. I’m running mine through my laptop’s DP-Alt USB-C port. It pulls more power than a 1080p IPS at higher brightness, but nothing extreme. It comes with an adapter and cables, though I use a 45W USB-C charger I already had with no issues. Just check your port speeds; mine only does 10Gbps, which limits it to 2880x1800 @ 100Hz instead of the rated 120Hz. That’s a laptop bottleneck, not the monitor’s fault. Compared to a 144Hz 1080p IPS, the trade-off is worth it. Picture quality and contrast crush it. I’d still prefer 16:9 over 16:10, but this one’s been great otherwise. The speakers are better than most in this range, the design feels more solid, and the glossy screen is easy to clean. It’s reasonably light, durable, and well-priced for what you get.

I have only had this screen for about a week or so. But, I am VERY impressed with the quality of the image! Because it is OLED, there is no "bleeding" of light into the image from the back panel. The image is just beautiful! I've run my Raspberry Pi5 Retrocade system on it, PS5 Pro, and Xbox Series X and it just looks fantastic! The buttons on the side take a little getting used to. But, once you remember the layout, there's no problems. Speakers a better than average, but not amazing. It would have been nice to have a 3.5mm audio jack on it. But, you can use USB speakers on it. My only beef: In low power mode, it has yet to automatically power itself on when I slap a signal to it. I have had to manually turn it back on each time. But, that's more of an annoyance than a actual problem and I can live with it. I have owned a couple of these portable screens over the years and, so far, this is my favorite one! You won't regret the purchase!

I bought this monitor as an accessory to my work setup since it's the perfect size to keep on the side. Do note that it's a 4K resolution with 60hz refresh rate monitor so I do use it strictly for work. I actually went on a recent trip and was able to bring just this monitor and my laptop and was able to work flawlessly as well, and it's extra convenient given the magnetic case that it comes with to get it standing on its own. The text clarity, resolution, and color makes it optimal for work personally since I can fit a lot and have it be legible (not blurry). The refresh rate and resolution makes it ok for console gaming and I've also plugged it into my S24 Ultra and it worked with DeX perfectly as well. Overall, it's a great monitor at a great price that fits exactly what I wanted it for.

Love this monitor, it's perfect for my needs. I use it with my phone instead of a laptop. It has clear, high quality picture, and works perfectly with Samsung Dex allowing me to have a full desktop experience on the go. It comes with a protective sleeve that doubles as a stand for the monitor, making it super easy to use. It comes with a charger, 2x USB C to USB C cables and 1x Mini HDMI to HDMI cable allowing easy connection to any device. It has power pass through, so if plug in the monitor and then I connect it to my phone, then it charges my phone, which is great.

UPDATE: after owning this monitor, I'm also experiencing the black flicker every few minutes. I've tried multiple cables (including the ones that came with it) as well as multiple power adapters (including the one that came with it). It changed nothing and my screen is still flickering. DO NOT BUY Honestly fantastic quality of a portable display. The picture looks fantastic, the resolution is great, and the refresh rate is perfect for gaming. I'm using it as a portable display for my Legion Go and it looks awesome. The power draw is a bit big, but you CAN drive it with a portable handheld, you just need to drop the brightness down a bit (I set mine to 70%). If you want it max brightness, you'll have to plug it into the wall most likely. I don't mind running it a little less than max if that means I can use it with just one cable out of the handheld to the display. I'm not sure about durability, as the display is glass, and the quality of glass isn't stated. I'm sure if you dropped it or hit the front of it, it would shatter so make sure you have some kind of protection for it during travel, and be a bit careful lugging it around. The HDR is also hit or miss, I just leave it off as it seems to produce an extremely oversaturated result, you can find video examples online. For the price it's worth it and actually mind boggling to get a portable 120hz OLED for around $250 bucks.

Excellent OLED monitor for the price and portability. It can be used with a single Thunderbolt (or other DP Alt mode USB-C) cable with a brightness cap at 15%, but I have rarely had to go above that for my needs since the display is already quite bright. An AC power adapter is included if you prefer the power stability or have to use HDMI instead. It's not mentioned anywhere in the product description for some reason, but the monitor also is a touchscreen. From what I've gathered, I think that these are touch-capable Samsung OLED panels, making them very high quality. I was able to achieve the advertised 2880x1800 at 120 Hz across Windows, Mac, Android (Samsung DeX) and Linux. By far, Mac required the most tinkering for comfortable use. Note that this IS a 16:10 display rather than a 16:9 display, so some fullscreen media will not use up all of the vertical real estate on the screen. Still, everything looks great on this monitor, from watching TV to reading to playing video games. Originally, I was hesitant to get an OLED monitor because of the fear of burn-in, but it has been about 8 months and I have yet to experience even a hint of burn-in. As the description states, it is indeed VESA compatible--I have it mounted to a monitor arm--though you will have to get smaller screws than usual (M4 x 4mm). Still, the included folio case isn't bad, though the nature of a folio case limits the angle at which you can tilt it. NEWSOUL customer support was extremely helpful and responsive when I needed a replacement AC power adapter due to a coil whine I was hearing when the monitor was turned off, so I highly recommend reaching out to them if you have issues with your monitor or any of the accessories.
