Is this monitor good for gaming?

It handles casual and console gaming, but the 60Hz refresh rate limits fast-paced titles compared with high-refresh gaming monitors.

Does it work with a laptop over USB-C?

It connects through HDMI, DisplayPort and USB. Check that your laptop's USB-C port supports video output if you plan to use a single cable.

Can I mount it on a stand?

Yes. It has a 75 x 75mm VESA mount, so it works with compatible arms and stands.

How does it compare with a 15.6-inch portable monitor?

It gives a larger 4K screen and more workspace, but it is heavier and bulkier to pack than most 15.6-inch models.

Does it have a built-in battery?

No. It needs power from an adapter or a connected device, so plan for a power source when traveling.

It ships with the monitor and cabling for its inputs. Check the listing for the exact cable and adapter set.

Our take on the UPERFECT 17.3" 4K UHD Portable Monitor

The UPERFECT 17.3" is a large portable monitor with a 3840 x 2160 IPS panel, 60Hz refresh, HDR support and 178-degree viewing angles. It stands out for its size and resolution in a body about 0.39 inches thick and 2.02 pounds, with dual 2W speakers, VESA mounting and HDMI, DisplayPort and USB inputs. It suits people who want a big second screen for laptops, consoles or creative work on the move. Against smaller 1080p portables it offers far more desktop space, but it is heavier and needs more power than 15.6-inch rivals.
