Community Reviews

This ASUS ZenScreen MB169CK is a 15.6 inch portable 1080p IPS monitor that stands out for easy setup and travel use. The integrated 360 degree kickstand gets strong praise, and the package includes a sleeve. It also works well in a tri monitor desktop setup, and a laptop should be fine if its USB C port can carry video and power on the same cable. The main knocks are the 250 nit brightness and concerns about ASUS support and repair costs, so it fits best when portability matters more than maximum brightness.

Common Questions (5)

  • At $79, it is described as a strong value for a 15.6-inch 1080p IPS portable monitor. Similar-spec Acer portable monitors are mentioned around $45 refurbished, but this ASUS is still considered a steal at the deal price.

    ShimakazeappelWoodSlayRappel

  • Yes. The monitor has an integrated 360° kickstand, and the package also includes a sleeve. The kickstand is a practical upgrade over ASUS folding-cover designs because it makes setup easier.

    knightfoxmvpcrossxoverScarletHill632

  • It is a 250-nit portable monitor, which is on the dim side compared with brighter models. That tradeoff helps keep power draw lower, but it may be less comfortable in very bright environments.

    DrRadD.Diggsskywaytp

  • ASUS support can be costly if the monitor needs service: shipping to ASUS is reportedly at your expense, and return shipping plus repair or parts charges may also apply. That makes warranty claims less attractive than buying from a retailer with easier returns.

    AquaIdea9357appel

  • Yes, if the laptop's USB-C port supports video output and power delivery, the monitor can run over the same cable. It also works well in multi-monitor desktop setups.

I got one of those last month and it is great - such a steal at that price.

Kickstand makes it worth it. I have an older ASUS screen with the folding cover which is impossible to use without an instruction booklet.

I ordered an Acer monitor yesterday that was advertised here, and I already received a notice shipping would be delayed 7-10 days.

I use it in a tri-monitor desktop and it works great. Laptop should be fine too...assuming your USB-C port supports it, you should be able to connect it and power go through that cable too.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I have the tri-monitor setup for my desktop too. Like it. Just feel a bit curious about the same setup in a laptop setting.

Another option is that Amazon has them renewed, in excellent condition, for the same price.

No, I was replying to someone that said you can get a similar specced Acer portable monitor for about $45 at ebay. The Acer I linked to on Amazon was the same model as they linked to on eBay

Ah, even better, easier returns! If you're going that route then this 1920x1200 model might be worth the extra $15 for the increased height: https://www.amazon.com/acer-Porta...B0GD8HP97K
