Increasing productivity while on the go is the goal of the best portable monitors. Adding a second screen to a laptop might be a reasonably common use-case, giving the user who is travelling from hotel to hotel twice as much screen space. However, there have been a few portable monitors that may be appealing to gamers; the Minisforum MSS-A156, with its quick refresh rate and FreeSync compatibility, may suit this need.
According to Minisforum, the display features an HDR option, broad viewing angles, and a 1,000:1 contrast ratio all characteristics of an IPS panel. It can also reach up to 400 nits of brightness.
Along with being lightweight, durable, and equipped with the ports you require for communication, portable displays should also be small. When travelling, a portable monitor can act as an additional screen for your laptop, a small display for a Raspberry Pi project, a way to test a desktop computer that’s still on your workbench, or even a way to connect a gaming console while on vacation. Excellent visual quality, portability, robust use, and an abundance of connectivity choices are all features found in the best portable monitors.
According to Minisforum, the MSS-A156 dimensions 357 x 223 x 4 mm; however, we believe that the 4 mm measurement only applies to the monitor’s narrowest part. It appears thicker at the area containing the ports and actual controls. Again, there is some ambiguity surrounding this specification: we are not clear if the weight of the Minisforum MSS-A156 includes the magnetic protective case that doubles as a stand. It is stated to weigh 900 g, or roughly two pounds. An aluminium alloy is used to make this monitor.
Landscape and portrait monitor modes are made possible by the magnetic case/stand. You will need to make changes to your operating system as there isn’t a sensor that can automatically adjust this for you.
One USB Type-C connection is all that’s needed to operate the Minisforum MSS-A156. According to Minisforum, the display may be connected to PCs, tablets, cellphones, gaming consoles, and cameras. While the majority of contemporary devices support USB Type-C, older devices can still be connected via a Micro USB connector, power adapter, and Mini HDMI connection. Along with the + and – keys and the on/off switch, the bezel also has a headphone jack for adjusting the OSD. And last, this portable display has stereo 1W speakers integrated within it.
Minisforum made the announcement on its Discord channel that the Minisforum MSS-A156 Portable Monitor is now available on their website through both their US and Japanese stores. We discovered that the US connection also had links for buyers from the UK and the EU. The Minisforum MSS-A156 is currently being offered for $189, which is $34 less than the original price. The duration of that is unknown.
