Maxfree T2 Triple Portable Monitor for Laptop, 13.3 1080P FHD Dual Monitor, One Cable Plug and Play Laptop Screen Extender for Mac/Windows, Support M1/M2 Chip MacBook Monitor for 13.3”-17” Laptops

Having multiple monitors is pretty useful for any kind of multitasking, not just for gamers. This allows you to do that pretty much anywhere you take your laptop. The colors are pretty good and the screens are a decent 1080p 60hz. It takes a minute or two to set up, but it’s nice that you don’t need any external power, just the laptop is enough. They don’t even seem to kill my laptop’s battery that quickly.

This almost fit my 17” laptop. But fits my daughter’s MacBook Pro perfectly. It’s exceptionally well made and comes with all the cables you might need. Great picture quality, and has capabilities of changing brightness and other screen features. Very portable with a nice protective sleeve.

Short version: this does work on macOS over a single cable, it uses Silicon Motions Instant View (its basically display output over USB, and is similar to DisplayLink) so it does need a driver for it to work. I was able to test this with a 2016 Macbook Pro 15 and a 2016 Dell XPS 13; this thing is too large for 13in laptops, but 14in should be okay. It includes a microSD card reader that out of the box comes with a small microSD card that contains the Instant View drivers. The display themselves are okay for 1080p60hz, just keep in mind the angles I have in the picture is as far as they will go towards the keyboard. I wouldnt call this thing portable however, it takes some time to deploy and honestly just get a larger (16in 4k) portable monitor and save yourself some money while youre at it Long version: I got this since I was expecting to be more on-the-go for work, and I always need extra screen space. I was aware that it would use Silicon Motions Instant View for macOS compatibility over a single cable (macOS doesnt support Displayport MST, which means that it needs software solutions to support 2 displays over a single cable; in this case, Instant View is a competing implementation similar to how DisplayLink works, which is display output over USB). The build quality is good. The whole thing comes with a faux leather wrap, and the plastic itself despite feeling a bit light, doesnt feel too flimsy with a pretty durable ratchet to adjust width. This thing is too big for a 13in laptop like the 2016 Dell XPS 13 I tested this with, but for 14in laptops and larger it should have no problems; the 2016 15in Macbook Pro has no problems. Theres a small stand that leans on the back because otherwise any laptop (except something like a super heavy mobile workstation/gaming laptop) would tip over from the weight. The viewing angles actually work okay, but doesnt lean together towards the keyboard too much. In terms of practical use, it aint good. Its very cumbersome to deploy, and youre only getting 2 small 1080p displays. In comparison, you can just get a 15in or 16in portable monitor and just have an easier time; this is actually what I was using before (I have a 16in 16:10 4k portable monitor), and in fact it is far more easier to use and is far more portable than this thing. Maybe say if youre always going to different places but sit at a single spot in the place for an extended period of time, maybe this will work, because setting it up and then packing it up is quite the task. It does come with 2 USB-C to USB-C (one end is 90-degree angled) cable, a USB-C to USB-A cable, and a 5V3A charger; this is for if youre connecting to a laptop over the USB-A cable, or if the USB-C port on the host laptop doesnt provide enough power for the 2 displays. Because this uses Instant View, it doesnt count towards a GPUs supported number of displays count. So say if youre connecting this to a M1 Macbook Air thats normally limited to a single display output, you can use this, and then still have that 1 display output for something else. This also means that for Macbooks with dGPUs, because the display output is over USB instead of DisplayPort, it doesnt activate the dGPU (which might have some power savings advantages despite having to run the Instant View drivers) The price of this is quite an issue. At the time of this review, its $600 with a $100 discount. A 16in 4k monitor can be had for around $200 to $250; you can get 2 of those for the price of this thing. Its not very easy to pack/unpack, its quite heavy, the size is awkward to carry around in a backpack (its very square). However by using Instant View, you can use this in macOS with a single cable. If I remember these dual-monitor laptop things are subject to some lawsuits on the original manufacturer that created the design, so to some extent I also doubt the legitimacy of this product. At the end of the day, it has its flaws, but it does work. Just keep in mind of your use case, a portable monitor is probably 99% of the time a superior solution and a better use for your money.

I love this triple screen. I have had one before, but that one needs 4 connectors to my computer (2 chargers, and 2 HDMI cables). It was annoying. But this one, OMG, one cable for charging and connecting.. Because of my work, I need to open multiple files and refer to each other, so this is a time saver for my work. Whats better is that it comes with a travel cover, which makes it more portable to travel with. So you wont worry the screen will get scratched. And its light, so you wont worry too much when traveling. And all you need is a C-type outlet to plug in. I cannot wait to show it to my friends.

This almost fit my 17” laptop. But fits my daughter’s MacBook Pro perfectly. It’s exceptionally well made and comes with all the cables you might need. Great picture quality, and has capabilities of changing brightness and other screen features. Very portable with a nice protective sleeve.

For the most part, this is a great unit. The materials are good and everything is robust and strong. The part that attaches to the laptop works very well and the kick stand in the back is also equally as good. Everything is easy to use also, including the OSD menu. The only negative I can see is the brightness. Even with backlight set to 100% you get maybe 200 nits to 250nits max. This is comparing with the 300nit screen my laptop has. Also a a slight aesthetic dislike is the huge max logo on the front. It is huge and I am not a fan of large branding like that. It is a good unit and will satisfy most people needing something like this.

This is pretty cool for traveling or even working in the living room. The screens are very heavy and you may need to use the kickstand support that comes with it depending on your laptop. Note, there is a micro SD card that it comes with to install software in order to use the monitors. So if you don’t want to install something then do not get this. Overall, it’s convenient and made well just know you’ll have to download software. I hope this was helpful!

Muy buen producto y servicio

If you are a traveler and you take gaming serious, or you are limited with work space? This double monitor will be ideal for you. Instead of having to buy two separate monitors and an arm that extends to each monitor, attach them to your desk or wall? Instead I use these. Easy to install for me, as plug and play was functional almost instantly. Great resolution and very portable. Not too heavy considering you are literally carrying two monitors. I love that they only require one cable plug in, instead of multiple cables for each monitor

I love having multiple screens when I work; my laptop screen just isnt big enough. It is so convenient not having to toggle back and forth so much. At first I thought no way are tiny screens going to work, however after following the setup instructions and adjusting the resolution, it was truly amazing. Now when I travel and work I have the ability to work as if I was in my office with multiple monitors. It does add a little weight that can pull down the screen if not correctly balanced but an easy thing to manage.
