The concept here is clever and it mostly delivers. Slide the monitor out from behind your laptop screen, plug in one cable, and boom, dual monitors at a coffee shop. We used it for two weeks as a daily driver alongside a 14 inch MacBook Pro and the extra screen space made a real difference for having Slack open while working in a doc.

The magnetic mount holds well once you get the adhesive plates placed correctly. Took us about 10 minutes of careful alignment during initial setup but after that its been rock solid. The display quality is good enough, not MacBook Retina level but totally fine for productivity work. Colors are accurate and text is sharp at 1080p on a 14 inch panel.

Main complaints. It adds weight to your laptop lid which makes the hinge work harder. On lighter laptops like a MacBook Air this is noticeable, the screen wants to tilt back more. And at $250 its not cheap for what amounts to a 1080p panel with a magnet. But if you’re a remote worker who bounces between locations and misses having dual monitors, its one of the only solutions that actually travels seamlessly with your laptop without needing a separate bag.
