Differences Between Wired And Wireless Portable Monitors

In order to cater the needs of customers, many different versions of external monitors are launched in the market, for example, monitors in different resolutions, different colors and different connection methods.  It is not difficult to see external monitors from one series provide both wired connection and wireless connection version.

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN WIRED AND WIRELESS PORTABLE MONITORS?

The most apparent difference must be the connection method. Let me firstly introduce some of the common connection methods of wired and wireless monitors respectively.

COMMON WIRED MONITOR CONNECTION METHOD

1. HDMI

High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) ports can be mainly found in new computers and HD TVs. HDMI cables carry both HD video and audio signals. Therefore, if you connected your device to an external monitor which has built-in speakers, audio can also be exported and come out from the external monitor.

As many types of devices with different built-in ports are launched, there are also various types of HDMI cables in the market, like HDMI to Type C, HDMI to USB and HDMI to mini HDMI.

2. TYPE C

Type C, also known as USB-C, is a connector that is able to transmit data and power on a single cable. However, not all devices with Type C port support data transmission function.

Just like HDMI cable, there are also many types of Type C cables, for example, Type C to Type C, USB to Type C and Lightning.

3. VGA

VGA connector was developed by IBM and introduced in 1987. VGA utilizes analog signals, which means it's only capable of lower resolutions and a lower quality display on screens.

Because of its limitation, it is uncommon to see VGA in new devices. VGA is mainly replaced by other connectors like HDMI.

COMMON WIRELESS MONITOR CONNECTION METHOD

1. WIFI

For most of the wifi wireless connection, a screen mirroring adaptor will usually be attached with the external monitor, in order to connect it with the wifi. The principle of it is transferring display data over wifi network.

HOW TO USE XSCREEN PORTABLE MONITOR FOR THE DUAL-SCREEN SETUP?

Also, if we don’t talk about home office, sometimes, you may want to use a larger monitor to display your mobile screen, laptop screen, Switch screen, etc. At that time, you may desire to have a portable screen. There is a fabulous portable monitor - XScreen with a touch screen function suggested for you.

When you have a XScreen, you may be perplexed about how to use your XScreen. Hence, here is a text version guideline for you about how to use our XScreen portable monitor. If you want to watch the video version guide of XScreen portable display, you can still read the below content.

There are some videos to you for reference in the review.

Many people may use Apple products for the home office. If your device is Apple product (except Macbook since Macbook is with Type-C port), you need to use other lightning adaptors to convert the plug into HDMI. HDMI is recommended because if you convert the plug into Type-C, we are not sure whether your adaptor is supporting data transfer. Most of them are just supporting charging but not data transfer. Thus, if you want to adopt XScreen portable display for your Apple product, adaptor converting into HDMI will be better. (The adaptor needs to connect with a power supply.) If you don't want to use an adaptor, you can use the Wireless version of XScreen.

Not all USB-C ports support video output. If you want to check whether your device is compatible with XScreen portable monitor, you can refer to the list HERE to see whether it supports video output over Type-C cable. If you still confuse about it, you can contact us for further inquiries.

If you find that your device does not support USB-C video output, wireless version of XScreen may be more suitable for you.

3 Reasons Why We Need A Portable Monitor

WHY WE NEED A PORTABLE SCREEN?

Many people are using laptops, tablets or even mobile devices for their daily work. They are smaller than a desktop computer and the most important is that we can bring it everywhere. Usually, people will choose a laptops with 13-inch screen because it is lighter but it still quite heavy for carrying out. Although some people are using 11-inch tablets, the screen maybe too small when you need to use it for whole day. It is harmful to our eyes if we continuously to read small words for a long time. That's why we need a extra screen to protect our eyes.

REASON 1 - WORK AND ENTERTAIN EVERYWHERE

You can bring your laptops everywhere for work. How about you need to present your project to your clients outside the office? The laptops screen is too small for showing your ideas. Then, may think of having a bigger screen size. However, a bigger screen size may result as a heavier laptops. It may be benefit when your are working at the office or home. But when you need to work outside or bring your laptops for travel, the weight of the laptops will be a problem. So, a light and portable monitor will be your choice.

Most of the latest portable monitors are light and slim. Such as Lexuma' s portable screen - XScreen. A 15.6" large touch screen with 9mm thick and about 0.7 kg weight. Just portable as an iPad. Bring a laptops and a portable screen is still convenient. You can present your ideas anytime anywhere.

Bring two devices out is still inconvenient? You can just use your mobile phone or tablets for presentation. Just connect your mobile phone or tablet, then you can simply use them to present your idea! Laptops is no longer required!

If I am a student, there's not reason for me to have a portable monitor, right? Of course NOT! The portable monitor is not just for business use but also for entertainment.

REASON 2 - EASY TO SET UP

The traditional external monitors needs a individual power supply. If there are no power plugs, we cannot use the external monitor. Also, when we connect the external monitor with our laptops, we only can do this with a HDMI cable. It is not that easy to find a HDMI cable when you need it. How about the portable monitor?

For the new potable screen, we just simply connect it with laptops, the portable monitor can power on. Since the portable monitor will generate power from the connected devices, you don't need to find an extra power supply for it. No worries on the power supply issue and turn on the portable screen anytime you need. If you find that your devices is running out of battery, the portable monitor can also generate power supply from power bank.

There are no extra settings required for connecting with the laptops. Just use a Type-c universal cable or a HDMI cable to connect it with your laptops and the screen. Then, you can extend your screen whenever you need. Since the portable screen is not limited to using HDMI cable, connection is more convenient. Just like XScreen which can get power supply from the devices it connected. Only one cable can connect both the power supply and device.

REASON 3 - WORK EFFECTIVELY

Have you ever experienced on changing different browser frequently when you're using laptops? It is not that convenient when we need to check across two documents. If we show two documents at the same time, the words will be so small because of the 13" laptops. Then, getting a extra screen is needed.

The portable monitors helps you to work effectively with two or more apps open in the same time. Whether you are checking stocks, having video conference with your clients, or streaming YouTube videos, your apps will always in your sight.
