Mmh. There are external, portable usb-c monitors, which are convenient because you can plug them into any usb-c laptop. But they are „dumb“, only work in connection with a laptop. I wonder whether there is one that can act as an Android tablet when not plugged in.

- chiefalchemist 6y agoTrue. But I've looked at various small portable screens and they're rather expensive. The advantage of using something you already have is you save money and it's one less thing to carry. That aside, I struggle to understand why laptop to tablet still requires magic in 2020? Are manufacturers afraid of cannibalizing sales for one line to another?
- ant6n 6y agoWell I travel a fair amount for work and would like to have an external monitor for the work laptop, but also a personal tablet. With a 2-in-1 device I could solve both concerns without adding too much travel weight.
- Fnoord 6y agoI'm looking for one to combine with my MBP 2015 which has TB2/HDMI. However, even if ignoring that requirement, from what I can tell these all have terrible brightness. I, for one, cannot stand such.
