Maybe it's just me, but 15.6in is too similar to a 14in display to be useful with a laptop while travelling
I can attest that while business traveling, if you have to do emails or excel/powerpoint, etc., an extra screen is great.
My old boss had to do Excel one night while making slides, and I forgot about my extra monitor. Needless to say, she didn't get much completed as flipping between apps on one screen is a horrible experience.

When not traveling, I bought this desk mount from AMZ and have the external monitor in portrait configuration as my 3rd work monitor for MS Teams chat. Nice to not have to look down to see if there's a pending chat message before going to the app.

You'll have to buy some m3 x 6mm screws and washers for the VESA mounts.

I bought one of these before at a similar price. I just keep it in my work bag for when I'm out of my office and run into a two-monitor problem.
Is it pretty durable? DO I have to do anything special to keep it from cracking if I travel with it in my suitcase or backpack?

Looks good, but native VESA mounting?
This AOC has them.
They're not 100% needed, but having recently mounted mine up as a 3rd work display and a dual-monitor mobile workstation for the living room, I would say, it's a nice thing to have.

I don't have this brand, but IMO they're durable as long as you don't drop your bag.
I actually took a newspaper (folded) and have it as additional cushion in my backpack.
I have had mine since 2020.
I have traveled with them dozens of times.
The USB-C cables seem to fail faster though based on the input angle. I recommend getting some L- or U- shaped connectors to help.
I use these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BWY95...tle_1&th=1

I have recently converted to a duffel backpack carry-on. I plan on keeping all my hardware in it until I am at the airport. Then, I'll pull out the hardware and use a lightweight collapsible backpack for my personal items on the plane (laptop/tablet, headphones, phones, food). When not on the plane, they all go into the wheeled duffel for easy portability vs. my old setup with a hard-sided carryon and a heavy duty 10# backpack that carried my laptop(s), portable monitors, tablets, phones, etc. Things stayed safe, but too heavy and bulky now that I think about it.

The case is pretty nice, I keep it in my backpack, albeit in an internal compartment. I don't know how well it would handle a crush.

What are you trying to suggest? Because this sounds like projection from someone who has never owned one.

I have a different brand and specs, but these travel displays are amazing. I attach it to this stand [amazon.com], run the second display at 1920x1080, stack the display above my laptop, and it adds invaluable productivity.

These things work great as second display while traveling, or a third one while at home...
I own this product [amazon.com]. I already have a dual-monitor setup with my dock, and sometimes I use this as an extra 4th display in portrait mode to help with code and document review. It's super convenient with the kick stand and USB-C plug-and-play.

can you use this on a cell phone or cast from a cell phone a.k.a a movie?
With usb c connected to the phone and monitor and a power source for the monitor, it should work. It does Samsung Dex with no issues.

Thanks for that info. When you say the USB C cables fail, you mean the actual cable , right? Not the port? Those adapters basically stabilize the connection/angle of attachment it looks like so less wear on both cable/port.

It's supposed to be easily for use as a secondary screen. If you want to tote a 32" screen around, you're in the minority. Not sure what you're expecting in a portable, secondary monitor, but until foldable screens become available, this is a fair option. And what about power? If you go much bigger, you're going to need an external power source rather than USB type-C from your laptop, which is kind of silly with something that's main selling point is portability.

It is powered by your laptop but only draw 10W, so it isn't too bad.

Low nits, washed out colors. These portable display are garbage.
It's about expectations and actual needs. No, you're not going to do heavy gaming or a ton of video editing on it, but when you just want more real estate for work and you're on the road, it's easily worth more than $50 to a lot of people.
