I bought this one for a few dollars more https://www.ebay.com/itm/267229702829, but it has a better kickstand IMHO and it rocks.

I have a Pixel 9 that supports display mode through USB-C, and paired with this monitor, a Bluetooth keyboard, and a Bluetooth mouse, I now have a lightweight laptop.

My Pixel 9 can even power the monitor in a pinch, though I usually use a USB wall adapter to power the monitor, then charge my Pixel 9 from the monitor's other USB-C port, basically needing just two USB cables.

I was shocked at how well and fast it works. Screens can be windowed, moved, etc. Basically, think Chromebook; it's the same experience. No more lugging my expensive Dell XPS when I travel.

Does this include a USB-C power supply?
No, just two cords - a HDMI to micro-HDMI, and a USB-C to USB-C

Ended up going with this one after reading your comment. The ports look better, the stand looks more stable, it has speakers (though I don't expect them to sound great), and it has a 2 year warranty.
When connecting this to my iPhone (USB-C to USB-C), the speakers worked, but even on full volume (from my phone), the volume was audible but pretty soft. Just FYI.

The speakers are not great, bearable if you have nothing else, but I always have my Bluetooth earbuds with me anyways to use instead.

Just a note for everyone considering it for use with their phone: make sure that if you're getting this as a display for a phone, your phone supports Display Mode on the USB-C port. Android Pixel 8 and higher do; not sure about other Androids, and I don't know much about iPhones.

Quote from Medic311 :
Unfortunately that variant doesn't work for those who plan to use this monitor with a holder-type of mount since the kickstand in its default position blocks all ports. If the kickstand is extended rearwards for access to the ports, then it won't work with the holder-type of mount

If one doesn't plan to use a holder-type of mount and just the kickstand, then it's fine.

For this reason, we went with the other type
If you're referring to the unit I linked to earlier, the kickstand can be folded up 180 degrees to the top back of the monitor, revealing the ports while keeping the kickstand flush with the back of the monitor.

Does it have 100x100mm VESA mount? Thanks. "And with VESA mount compatibility (100 x 100mm), you can easily mount it to a wall or stand for a more permanent setup."
It has VESA wall mounting, but it's 75x75mm.

iPhones with USBC work, and can also power the display by themselves. Lightning port iPhones require an expensive adapter to convert to HDMI, and it won't output power through that

Quote from The Profit :
It has USB-C. Can you plug it into your phone as an external monitor?
It worked on an iPhone 16 Pro Max but it didn't fill the borders. I didn't do this long as I was basically powering the monitor from the phone which seemed unsustainable and would put wear on my more expensive irreplaceable battery. I think a powered hub would work just fine too.

Edit: it has 2 USB-C ports so it may allow you to keep the monitor on a separate power source.

Because it's fire

But really at this price I expect 800nits, 240hz, and 2 sticks of 16g DDR5

this appears to be the same model Costco is selling for $80 new. costco has: PM161Q Jbmiuuxebay has: PM161Q AbmiuuxAs far as I can see so far they have the same specs. Might just be different SKUs depending who sells it.
No they are different. The Costco Jbmiuux has 250 nits brightness, vesa mount. The eBay one claims 300nits. The ports, stand and bezel thickness are different.
