This is a rebrand for Acer.

If you look on Amazon, there are no-name brands selling models with identical specs in the $50 range. Some even have better specs.

All of the competing products have too low metrics and will get pulled by mods.

Just search "portable monitor". They're all based on only a handful of displays, so the only differences are price and warranty.

I think there's value in purchasing from Costco with their return policy. Acer also has a reputation to maintain. I'd say this is a good deal. You'll find cheaper deals, but you're also buying some peace of mind to be able to resolve issues.

I have several portable monitors and I'd prefer they have the stand like this one does.

But what I'd really recommend is looking at your needs. If you're not intending to move the monitor (e.g., take it with you), you'll likely be more satisfied with a non-portable monitor that will be larger at a comparable price. 15.6" is the size of a laptop screen. You'll have less eye strain with a physically larger screen.

The most routine use for one of my portable monitors is as a video screen for passengers in my vehicle. Cell phone hotspot + FireTV stick + Portable monitor = entertainment that can be powered via USB. This Acer screen has an HDMI input which means it could do the same. It also has a 3.5mm jack for headphones.

Edit: trying to improve readability

Ok deal for an ok monitor. My only nit is that it has a mini-HDMI port instead of a full HDMI (which is more useful if you travel with it).

Anyway, you can find similar generic monitors for around $50 on Amazon if you want to save a little money and don't care about the Acer brand name or Costco's return policy.

I thought Costco didn't allow electronics returns beyond 90 days? Or is that for more expensive things like gaming pcs, laptops, or TV?

You need to up your game. Quest 3 with sideloaded apps + mudi router = Portable entertainment with privacy. Some people think you can't see them, but you can watch movies while walk around.

I believe this should work, but no personal experience.
