Portable monitors have become increasingly popular as people are working more flexibly than ever before. Many jobs are allowing hybrid schedules, or the ability to work out of the office, remote work is booming, and some are even learning to make the most of their ability to work from anywhere, knocking out their work from a cafe, a lakehouse, a holiday/vacation location, or visiting family.
However, depending on what you do, some people prefer a screen larger than 14-16 inches for work. That's where portable monitors gained significant traction. Then, people came to realize that having a monitor as thin as a tablet, with a single cable to power it and run the display, can be extremely helpful in many scenarios, including more complex desk setups, niche setups, and semi-portable setups.
