Working on a laptop can be quite a limiting experience, as you’re often tied to a single display. That is, unless you sit down at a desk that has a monitor on it and plug into that too, but even then, that sort of defeats the purpose of a laptop being portable. You wouldn’t take your monitor with you too, would you? Well, with the Philips 16B1P3302D, you can do just that! Sure, the Philips 16B1P3302D may not have a catchy name, but if you need a slim 16″ portable monitor that can fit in your laptop bag, then this should certainly get your attention.
Philips 16B1P3302D Portable
It’s a little on the expensive side, with a retail price of £239.99, but it does seem you get a lot for your money too. It features a Full HD 1920 x 1080 display, with a 75Hz refresh rate. It’s an IPS LED panel, offering wide viewing angles and better colour accuracy. There’s a built-in base/stand, that allows for both landscape and portrait orientations, and thanks to its dual USB-C connectivity, it’s capable of being daisy chained for multiple monitors, charging devices and more.
