What Actually Makes A Portable Monitor Worth Buying?

I've been working out of the office recently, and it had me looking at purchasing a portable monitor. Here's what I went with, and what I'd look out for.

The problem

I Was Constantly Switching Between Windows

In the office I work across three screens. Now that I'm moving around for work, I'm down to one, and I was constantly switching between tabs to find what I was working on.

I felt like I was getting far less done than I would in the office.

THE SOLUTION

Then I Found The NomaDesk TriView

It gives me two extra screens either side of my laptop, all running from one cable. Here's how my workday has changed since I started using it.

01 · More screen space

I Can See Everything At Once

My emails sit on one screen, the work I'm doing in the middle, and my spreadsheets on the other. I've stopped flicking between windows all day.

02 · Anywhere

I Get As Much Done Away From The Office As I Do In It

At home, at a client's office or in a hotel room, I'm working on the same three-screen setup I have at the office. Working away from my desk doesn't feel like a downgrade anymore.

03 · Portable

It Comes Everywhere I Work

When I'm done, it folds flat into its case and goes in my laptop bag. Unfolding it and plugging in one cable is all it takes, so I use it every day.

Final verdict

Would I recommend it? To anyone who works on the move, absolutely.

If you just want the cheapest screen you can find, this isn't it. If you want three screens that hold up to daily use, this is the one I'd buy.
