Desktop monitors are traditionally anything but portable, so the Ugreen AP16 portable monitor has been debuted to change this with a design that embraces life out of the house and office. The portable display is engineered with a 16-inch IPS panel with a 2.5K resolution and a 165Hz refresh rate to work seamlessly with both daily workflows and entertainment. The monitor can be used in both portrait and landscape, and achieves a peak brightness of 500 nits with 100% coverage of the sRGB color gamut to work well for professional needs.
The Ugreen AP16 portable monitor measures in at 6.5mm and weighs in at 928-grams to give it a rather slick profile that can be easily carried and set up for use anywhere.
