What customers say
The ASUS ZenScreen MB169CK is highly praised for its outstanding portability and effortless setup. Its single USB-C cable for power and video is a significant productivity booster, allowing instant dual screen functionality anywhere. Users also appreciate the durable construction and the convenient smart case. While the 1080p IPS display provides good visuals, some users noted the premium price might suggest higher resolution or a built-in battery. A crucial factor is ensuring your host device supports DisplayPort Alt Mode for seamless operation. Despite this technical requirement, it remains a dependable and valuable tool for professionals needing a lightweight external monitor.
Know before you buy
Yes, if your laptop's USB-C port supports DisplayPort Alt Mode, you can transmit both power and video signals through a single USB-C cable. For devices without this capability, you will need to use the Mini-HDMI port for video and a separate power source.
Yes, the ZenScreen MB169CK features automatic orientation sensing. It will detect whether it is positioned in landscape or portrait mode and adjust the display content accordingly, provided you have the ASUS DisplayWidget software installed.
It is designed with user comfort in mind, featuring ASUS Eye Care technology. This includes flicker-free backlighting and a low blue light filter to help reduce eye strain during extended work sessions.
Yes, the monitor includes an embedded tripod socket on the rear. This allows you to easily mount it to a standard tripod for eye-level viewing or more flexible workspace setups.
The monitor features an anti-glare IPS panel with a brightness of 250 nits. While it performs well in standard indoor lighting, it is best suited for typical office or home environments rather than direct, harsh sunlight.
Yes, the included 360° kickstand is detachable. This gives you the flexibility to use the monitor with the stand for various viewing angles or remove it if you prefer to mount the device on a tripod or store it more compactly.
