Hello there,
Not sure where to post this… I work remote for a year now but am starting going to co-working space. I’d like to find a small monitor that I can store away in a locker. The locker size is 46x42x31 cm. I think the main constraint is the 46cm wide.
I have a Asus ProArt at home (10 years old monitor and going strong) but its 53cm wide…
If the minitor can easely be detached from its stand, bonnus points as well. Looking for recomendations. Thank you.

    I have the Lenovo M14, it works great and is far lighter than my laptop. You can just put it on a box or something if you need it to be higher like a traditional monitor.

    Look up portable USB-C monitors. I’ve used some in the $100-150 range and they don’t last forever, but they are nice. They usually are extremely thin and can be whatever size you need and just plug into a USB C for power and display. They often come with a kickstand and case and are great for travel.

    i’ve been using the ASUS ZenScreen for my co-working setup and it’s been a game changer. Super sleek, portable, and easily fits in a locker. Plus, the detachable stand is a huge bonus. highly recommend it!

      Hey there. Yeah I was looking at those online yesterday. I had no clue about them until yesterday when i browsed the Asus website. The stand concept looks great too.

      Actually, do you know if the ASUS ZenScreen MB17AHG can be powered by the HDMI connection or it must be powered via USB-C?

    Portable monitors are great. There are tons of brands out there with various price points. I have one from the brand “ZSCMALLS” and it’s fine, I’ve only had it a few months so far. I put it on a “LISEN” brand monitor stand. Both of these items can be packed down in seconds and fit into a backpack, so it will surely fit into your locker.

      Hey there.
      Thanks for the comment. I’m curious about the LISEN stand. Do you have the model name? Perhaps this stand could be a viable option for other monitors such as the Lenovo M14 which was mentioned above.

    I have an iPad Air which I use as a second screen for my Macbook. Better than no second screen and easily fits in my luggage.
