 Hey how's it going everyone. Vissles and AUZAI 
were nice enough to send their monitors in for review.

Off the bat, they both look identical having a similar case design made of checkered textured with some kind of faux leather material. the cover case are magnetic, and can be completely removed from both of them. They are also the same screen size and have a 1920x1080 monitor. 

Out of the box the AUZAI comes with a screen protector, while the Vissles does not. Other than that it should come with a mini HDMI cable, power, and USB C to C cable. When I connect this to my laptop through usb type C, I don't have to worry about plugging the power in; the power will come through the laptop from the cable. These get pretty bright, but In direct sunlight you won't be able to see the screen, otherwise it's decent in the daytime with a matte finish. There wasn't any issue in watching videos in Full HD 1080p nor have I noticed any delays when doing tasks. 

Here's a downside. The response time is 25 ms on Auzai(I believe Vissles has somewhere between 20-30ms response time), and a slow response time can cause something called ghosting when playing games. This is unfortunate to see because normally monitors at half the price point would have as much as 8 md repsonse time and that's considered bad to some. I would think average response time in a monitor that's also acceptable around $100-$200 is 5ms response time. 

Ghosting is an effect that occurs on monitors when you're able to identify an image that was previously displayed leaving a trail in the currently shown image with some kind of blurriness effect and it causes smearing to the currently shown image above.

This has a 60hz refresh rate which means you can play games at 60 FPS, but you probably won't enjoy it too much if it's something graphic heavy and/or fast paced because the slow response that would create ghosting. Either way I still wanted to see if playing on a Nintendo switch would be acceptable since not all the games are too graphic intensive. Maybe in a YouTube review i'll get a chance to check it out. 

I can only assume that this slow response time may be the norm for portable monitors since it's a newer piece of technology and it might improve overtime. It's important to keep in mind that a slow response time won't affect simple tasks (i.e. - web browsing, checking emails etc.). 

I believe one of the most important features available in a portable monitor is a touch screen. Not having one can be a deal breaker as it becomes easier to navigate around especially when you need to zoom in, but this is if the touch screen is responsive almost all of the time, which my unit from Vissles was not. The touch screen stopped responding during specific tasks at some points like when I was in a excel file, the screen wasn't too responsive, and I don't know exactly why. Even after getting off of excel, the touch screen would stay unresponsive. Just to clarify, the monitor still works, just no the touch feature.

Overall I think they're decent to have as an extra monitor for work or school if you're working remote. I kind of like the idea of taking this to a public place like a library or Starbucks seems useful, although maybe I'd prefer something a little smaller like 12 or 13 inches to carry around. 

A touch screen is a huge difference and worth the purchase if it was accurate, which in this case was not with the Vissles monitor since the touch screen was not responsive about 20%-30% of the time. I wonder if it has something to do with the Quality assurance or whatever you want to call it. Either way I would choose the AUZAI for two reasons: it's cheaper and has a better case to keep the portable monitor standing.
