**Please note this portable monitor requires a USB-C port that supports "DP Alt Mode". This is automatically part of Thunderbolt, but some non-Thunderbolt ports support it as well. thunderbolt port - this is NOT THE SAME as a regular USB-C port. It must have the lightning bolt next to the port to be considered a thunderbolt port.**
Here's some information from the web on the differences:
Two protocols, one port -
USB-C and Thunderbolt 3 both utilize the same reversible port, which can lead to a lot of the confusion surrounding the two protocols. While a USB-C port and Thunderbolt 3 port look the same, Thunderbolt 3 has some extra hardware compared to the more widely-adopted USB-C.
It's important to know, too, that your USB-C accessories and cables will work with a Thunderbolt 3 port. All Thunderbolt 3 ports are also USB-C ports. However, the same cannot be said for the other way around; not all USB-C ports are also Thunderbolt 3 ports.

Still don't know about the Switch though.
Edit: according to answers, they could not get it working with the Switch as well

Too many of my devices that'd I want to use this for requires HDMI. Would HDMI to USB-C adapters work on this I wonder? How about using USB-C to USB-C with the Nintendo Switch? I'll research and post if I find any results.
Curious too

Lots of questions and answers from the Amazon Customer Questions. It seems most USB-C HDMI adapters go from USB-C to HDMI, but what we need is an HDMI to USB-C adapter which do not exist. This is according to the answers.

My laptop has a USB-C which is used as a way to charge the laptop. If I am required to use this USB-C to connect this Acer monitor. How will I am able to charge the laptop at the same time?
So is there a power brick that connects to the Acer monitor via USB-A and then it charges my laptop at the same time?
Thanks in advance

They at least should provide and adapter to use HDMI with this.

Your laptop has to support video out through that USB-C port. Some laptops are data/power only, some have video out and data/power. I know for sure that MBP's USB-C poets have video out through the USB-C ports.
