SeekerViewSonic VG1655
The ViewSonic VG1655 is an acceptable monitor for most uses. It's for on-the-go use, so it doesn't have as many features as desktop monitors. The 15.6 inch screen may seem small, but with a 1080p resolution, it has a high pixel density that delivers clear text for office use. However, it's mediocre for content creators due to its narrow color gamut, and it has slow response times if you want to use it for gaming.

ViewSonic's 15.6-inch VG1655 has the same limited color coverage as most other portable monitors we've tested, but it's one of the few to offer a built-in stand, a five-way mini-joystick controller, and a sophisticated onscreen display. It muscles out a win on the strength of those convenience features.
