Unbeknownst to us, this product and its company are currently being sued by Xebec, the original design and patent holder for these screens. With respect to patent laws and the hard work brands put into place, we have removed our links for this product and will be providing a follow up to this story. Stay tuned.

I don't think Xebec has much of a case. Their design features slide-out 10.1" screens instead of fold out. It also has a flip down foot instead of the fold out leg. The clamping mechanism is also different. Unless they copied Xebec's electronics, I don't see any patent issues. We've seen many cases thrown out because these companies are trying to patent a concept, but that isn't how the system works. They are two different approaches to a common concept (which Razer also did with the prototype).

Jay, I stumbled on your channel recently as I am about to build my first rig in ohhh, 13 years or so. I knew i needed to refamiliarize myself with technology, best practices, and hardware. I have checked some other channels for content and frankly found them not to my liking. You are down to earth, amusing, and honest. Your tech savvy clearly comes from your experience going back to i think you said 5 years old or so you started? My point is you referred to yourself as an influencer. While that is true and applicable, i think it grossly undersells your value. You literally took the new tech fear out of me, and once all my parts arrive, ill be building my rig. I noticed how careful you are with cable management, one of my pet peeves, as well as overall aesthetics. I am mildly OCD and a maker in my own right, so i recognize someone who NEEDS to perform at a practical yet high quality level. You check all my boxes. If i needed this 2 screen setup, like when i was in college, i wouldve jumped on it after watching this. Great work, love your team.

Quite frequently (outside of needing a wall of display like DMs do) I switch those two off, but when they're useful, I have them.

Use scenario? Office work. My company just replaced all of our SFF computers with Surface Pros and a dock station so we can keep using our dual monitors. Our work load is getting to needing a third. I hope the IT guy doesn't see this. I think the move in removing our previous setup was assinine.

I've been doing this for a couple years at my desk with a dock and a monitor stand. When traveling for a gig I use the same dock but two of those $150-250 portable 13 inch monitors leaving them on thier faux leather case stands. They took the same concept and made it one device and little easier to transport. I like it and when you consider what all is in it the price isn't outrageous. My DIY setup saves me around $100 so I feel it's a fair trade off for simplicity.

Pro Tip: With many of these types of monitors, the USB-C interface will use DisplayPort alternate mode and a MST hub to deliver a direct connection to the GPU for lag free, full quality video to monitors. The USB-A interface will use DisplayLink, which uses a virtualized display adapter and H.264 transcoded video streams sent over the USB-A interface. The latter option is not desirable as it will have noticeable input lag, quality loss from compression, and very often a reduced effective refresh rate as the video is often sent at 30FPS.

I just recently acquired a simple 1080 USB-C external with a 3" fold-up adjustable-swing base that keeps the monitor upright on any flat surface on either side of the laptop. Since I am an IT consultant that travels extensively and is RDP'd into client servers almost constantly, I am kicking myself for not getting this sooner!! The productivity increase of having my desktop continuously available and usable is substantial.

For web design or programming three screens is very useful for having your IDE on the center screen, a primary browser to refresh on another, and a secondary browser to refresh on the third.

Having multiple monitors is highly important for my professional workflow so I am constantly stuck to my desktop because of it. Having something like this, even at $600, would be fantastically beneficial for when I want to be mobile and still be productive. Sure it would not be as nice as my quad 32" monitor setup but it would be nice to see scenery that is not the inside of the same two rooms everyday. Now if only a good version was made for a 17" laptop.

This would be a game changer for those traveling for work. When I travel with my laptop, it’s delegated to just an email machine while I’m on-site. It’s impossible to create anything of value on a single, small screen. If you have a tight timeline and on-site, that work has to be sent to someone else with real screens to complete.

The problem with the price I have is that you can already get good 15.6 inch travel monitors for about 200 dollars with a built in stand. It makes it a hard sell when I can get a second monitor set up pretty easily using one of them in an even smaller footprint. I can usually find that while traveling that I can work around just a dual screen set up no problem. It helps that any third screen usage is typically something I can do on my ipad or even a phone because it would usually just be reference things.

I think the biggest pro for this would be the lack of cables and power plug needs. At the WORST case scenario, you are using 3 cables. That's half of what you would need for 2 monitors plus a laptop. You have the power for the laptop, ONE display/power cable, and MAYBE ONE power cable for the display. That means you are using at most two power cables anywhere you go. If you are using regular monitors you would be using TWO cables per monitor, a display cable AND a power cable. Not to mention you would then have to deal with a stand and the area that it would use on a desk or table. I more than likely wouldn't use it but I do see the draw for it. If I was still using a laptop for my main rig then this would probably be a decent a good upgrade for me since I've just been using a TV as a second monitor for almost ten years now.

For $600 it better be easy to set up lol. For that price it should also give back massages and do your taxes. Jokes aside, For those of us that do a lot of traveling and productivity work on the road in hotels, this seems like a great Idea. It will travel well inside of a standard laptop backpack. The fact that you dont need to carry around a separate power brick and it just seems to work out of the box is neat. Currently I travel with the $150 1080p IPS Asus Zen Screen 15" and LOVE it.

I've actually been eyeing a couple versions of this on Amazon for a while now. I converted back to a desktop at Home and Work a while back. I wasn't running around town as much, and not just because of Covid, but also even when out and about, it was only for short in-person meetings. I run 3-32" monitors at Home and Work, and... I don't even game, but my spreadsheets are huuuuge! Seriously though, if I was a regular business traveler that I needed access to my laptop on the regular on the road, one of these is exactly what I would be getting. I remember years ago seeing an episode of NCIS where a piece of evidence came in that was at first glance a massive old-school laptop, but that had been upgraded to the then current standard (basically a desktop briefcase with display), and thinking that it just needed additional displays coming out the side. Exactly like you described, having multiple displays for additional information displays in a compact but useful footprint is magnificent. Personally, I'd prefer the displays attach to the main display facing inwards (same visual direction), and slide-out to the sides. I'd also go with something slightly different than the kickstand for the support. I'd want something that I don't have to turn the laptop around, or walk around it, setting it up for the 100th time. $600 for two additional monitors... the information and ease of access that these monitors give you is (as a business) WELL worth the price. I can also see doing this for a Tiny Home set-up or similar small living or constant travel situation. Not losing your train of thought as you transition from one window to the next, but just click on the other screen that already has the file, folder, or site open that you need... that's a lot of lost time during the day instantly recovered.

I can see a number of use cases, but for me, the weight factor makes many of the potential cases much harder to justify. There are still a number of use cases where it’s almost certainly worthwhile, but I think lowering the weight would significantly expand it’s market.

That PD port is for plugging your laptop's charger, as it will pass it through to the laptop and possibly siphon off a little bit of juice for the displays. It's a pretty standard thing with these USB-C monitors.

A realistic usecase for developers at least is having email/teams on one side screen, Word/Excel for customer specs on the other side and write code in the main screen.

I guess this is just the first of its kind. I used to work "travelling" and had a super light 13.3 inch laptop as my only computer. Makeing that a tripple montior setup would have been great. Maybe not during the day, but at the hotel, when I did most of my computer work... Even the 12 inch version might make sense, if it is light enough to also use during the day when travelling. If I was Phil, having this in bigger and better (and more expensive) with a monster laptop for editing, just great. The idea is great, and I am sure there will be more versions (different brands) offering something like this. For many people that use laptops for work, this is just great.

For someone who works around the world, myself and my company could definately benefit from this. With the programming we do on many different machines we always use a 2nd monitor as we typically have other software being used at the same time. Although expensive, it would pay itself off for sure and its easy to take in hand luggage on a plane.

The problem it will have were continous open and close will make hinges weak, so in perhaps a month or half year, the screens will flop backwards, even if you just use them everyday and having keep in open position. If they add gear-like hinge holders, were you need to push the screens down or up to open and close, thumbs up.
