InnoView Laptop Screen Extender 15.6" Dual Portable Monitors 1080P FHD Stacked Folding Triple Monitor HDMI USB-C Portable Dual Monitor for Laptop Windows Mac (No Driver Needed)

Excellent dual monitor for the money! It has two USB C ports, one of which is for power supply (included in package), the other for connecting to your computer. Doesn’t matter which port is for which, but you must supply power. So this means a single C port is used for video connection which further means the two panels are treated as a single monitor by default. This last point has ramifications for Mac users (I’m not sure about the other operating systems).My attached photo shows this InnoView dual monitor (each panel 18.5 inches) connected to my MacBook Pro M3 Max in docking mode, together with a LuckyFive 24-inch WQHD monitor. Out of box when connected to a compatible Mac, the InnoView is in “splicing mode,” which means the two panels are used as a single vertical monitor. You can also, of course, use InnoView in mirror mode, where both panels duplicate the main screen, great for one-on-one sales pitches.To use the two panels as separate monitors, on the Mac you’ll need to install a driver that’s supplied from the monitor itself. The instructions are clearly given, although the steps are a little involved if you’re not used to installing drivers on a Mac. Not too bad if you want this “extend mode” (meaning two separate monitors).I didn’t do this. Instead I simply stay in splicing mode but rely on Mac’s windows arranging functions to place windows on the InnoView as I like. Macs remember windows’ positions as long as you don’t update the system and restart, so it’s pretty straightforward.The InnoView panels are each 1080p in resolution, with refresh rates of 60, 75 and 100. The frame is well made and the stand can stop at different angles and support the monitor securely. Image quality is very good for a 1080p monitor. And in splicing mode, the total resolution is 1920x2160.If you trade or code for a living and your desktop space is limited, I highly recommend this InnoView dual monitor. Just make sure your computer supports external displays, especially if you want to use InnoView in extend mode where the two panels display contents independently.

This is a great monitor. I have a work setup with dual monitor setup (34” Ultrawide and a verticle 27”), but I have found myself using my mobile setup more and more with this monitor paired with my M2 MacBook Air 15. The driver was easy to install and everything worked the way it should. I like that it has a clamshell design so it feels safe in my bag when I’m on the go. It is a perfect size to go along with my MacBook. I am able to run the monitor with just the data cable and use the power adapter with my Mac. I do have to use the power cable with the monitor if I want to use other accessories with my Mac or I will lose the monitor due to power constraints.

Mine for whatever reason kept taking me like 20 minutes to set up every morning! So I got into this routine of having to unplug it, plug it back in several times and then it would start working.When it did work it was amazing and perfectly suited my setup that I needed with my limited space. The picture quality was also really good and I really loved how big the screen was. Luckily the company that sells this has a really good warranty and they were able to get me taken care of because of some of my issues because I was honestly a little annoyed. It may have been because I have a dud or just didn't really work well with my laptop. Overall though it did work and I really appreciate how quick the company was to get back to me when I was having issues that I felt was under warranty.

After we got the driver situation figured out, it is EXCELLENT. Using MacBook 2023 and it is an excellent addition for portability and continued productivity. Should have bought this a long time ago.With the MacBook, we're able to use the USB-C cables and avoid the HDMI which limits screen usage to just a dual monitor system. With the USB-C cable, we can have 3 screens which is what we wanted.We initially installed the power USB-C cable for the monitors into the computer and inadvertently were using the video USB-C cable for power. There is a little tag on one of the cables that tells you "This is for power only." Yeah, we didn't read that and had the cables backwards. That led to having to download the driver from the manufacturer website. Of course it still didn't work after we installed the driver from the manufacturer. Getting frustrated and about to give up, I had the thought to check the USB-C cables and sure enough, they are slightly different thicknesses and foudn the "This is for power supply only." tag. We switched them and with the driver already installed, it worked exactly as expected. (You have to go into Settings and choose the display and configure it like you would any other additional monitor.)Had we plugged in the right cables the first time, I am confident the monitors would have installed on their own without any problems as others indicated has been the case.The screens themselves are sturdy and the picture clarity is great. Stand is sturdy and the hinges hold the top screen without any issues - solid feel.I can run the screens from the laptop without a power supply to them from the laptop by itself but obviously that will drain your battery. It is nice to know it can be done. I haven't tried running the screens from the powered laptop but I'm sure that would work as well. They recommend using the additional power supply.Very happy, would recommend and I will probably buy one for myself at some point, this one was for my spouse.

This dual monitor set up is so convenient. It’s lightweight, and super easy to set up. Its kickstand is stable and folds flush. Single usb-c operation makes it a win for me. I’ve tested nearly half a dozen and this one is staying. The only thing I did not like about it was the joint in the middle is really thick, if it was seamless or nearly seamless at the joint that would make it so much nicer when using it as a single screen.
