Multimonitor setups have taken over professional and creative spheres in a big way, boosting productivity like never before. Dell has upped the ante at CES 2026 with the world’s first 52-inch ultrawide curved monitor that’s designed for data professionals who demand maximum screen real estate. The 6K IPS Black display is your command center with connectivity options that’ll leave nothing to chance.
Dell UltraSharp 52 Thunderbolt Hub Monitor is essentially a combination of a 43-inch 4K display with two 27-inch QHD vertical monitors combined into one display. It eliminates the need for multiple monitor setups, the accompanying organizing hassles, and the wire clutter.
The numbers are crazy in every aspect with the 52-inch beast. It has an ultrawide aspect ratio of 21:9 compared to the 16:9 used on most monitors. 6,144 x 2,560 resolution (at 129 pixels per inch) and the 120 Hz refresh rate supporting variable refresh rate ensure it displays any kind of content with maximum precision. Gaming is theoretically possible on this, but you’ll need to match it with a beast of a PC. The IPS Black panel might not be as sharp as an OLED, still it delivers deeper blacks, a 2000:1 contrast ratio, and professional-grade color accuracy according to Dell.
Watching such a big screen for long hours can take a toll on your eyes, and Dell has it covered with the 80 percent less blue light courtesy of the eye-comfort features. The ambient light sensor reduces the strain to a minimum by adjusting the display settings accordingly. Best of all, the monitor connects to four PCs or Macs simultaneously with the two HDMI 2.1 ports, two DisplayPort 1.4 ports, and a Thunderbolt 4 port with support for Power Delivery up to 140W. In addition to these, the monitor features three USB-C 10Gbps upstream ports, four 10Gbps USB-A ports, and an RJ45 Ethernet port. For quick access, the curved monitor has two USB-C ports and a USB-A port on the front. Both these ports support 10Gbps transfer speeds.
When connected to multiple systems, the wide screen can be partitioned into two sections. The KVM (keyboard, video, and mouse) feature allows users to connect their keyboard and mouse independently to the display. The monitor can be height-adjusted by up to 90 mm with support for tilting, swiveling, and slanting positioning for maximum work freedom. The monitor carries a price tag of $2,800, and if you want the stand, that’ll cost an extra $100. Surely, this is not a curved monitor for everyone; still, it is worth every penny for individuals who have required something like this all along.
If this huge monitor is a bit too much, Dell also announced the 32-inch UltraSharp display with 4K resolution and a QD-OLED panel. The 120 Hz refresh rate display has True Black 500 HDR and Dolby Vision support. The Dell UltraSharp 32 4K QD-OLED (U3226Q) is expected to launch in February 2026 for $2,599.
We’ve all been there. You sit down to check your calendar, and thirty minutes later you’re three layers deep in Instagram stories wondering where your morning went. Our phones were supposed to make us more productive, but somewhere along the way, they became the world’s most sophisticated distraction machines. Enter Focus, a desktop board from Vestel Design Center that’s reimagining how we interact with our digital lives without falling down the social media rabbit hole.
At first glance, Focus looks like a minimalist piece of desk art, which honestly might be the smartest design choice they could have made. The device combines an E Ink display panel with a magnetic tool board and built-in speaker, creating what they’re calling a “multifunctional hub.” But what it really is? A thoughtful intervention between you and your phone’s never-ending notification nightmare.
Designer: Vestel Design Center
The E Ink panel is the star of the show here. If you’ve ever used a Kindle, you know that magical paper-like quality that’s easy on the eyes and visible in basically any lighting. Focus takes that same technology and turns it into your personal command center. It syncs with your phone to display your tasks, calendar events, and selected notifications. The key word being “selected.” You get to choose what makes it through, which means your cousin’s hot takes and algorithm-fed content suggestions stay firmly where they belong: on your phone, not in your line of sight while you’re trying to work.
But here’s where it gets interesting. Focus isn’t just about filtering information. It integrates with your smart home ecosystem, letting you control lights, adjust your thermostat, or manage security without reaching for your phone. Think about how many times you unlock your phone for one simple task and end up scrolling for fifteen minutes. This board cuts out that middle step entirely. Need to dim the lights for a video call? Done. Want to check if you locked the front door? Right there on the screen. All without breaking your workflow or tempting yourself with whatever’s happening on Twitter.
The design itself shows real restraint, which feels refreshing in a world where tech products often scream for attention. The illuminated base ensures the E Ink display stays visible even in darker rooms, solving one of the technology’s traditional limitations. And when you’re not actively using it, the panel switches to display mode, showing artwork or other visuals. It becomes part of your space rather than just another gadget cluttering your desk.
The magnetic tool board section adds a physical element that’s surprisingly practical. There’s something satisfying about having a designated spot for your glasses, pen, or phone that’s both functional and looks intentional. It’s the kind of detail that suggests the designers actually thought about how people work, not just how to cram more features into a product.
What makes Focus particularly relevant right now is its underlying philosophy. We’re all dealing with attention fatigue, that exhausting sense that our brains are being pulled in seventeen directions at once. The constant ping of notifications has trained us to be reactive rather than intentional about how we spend our time. This board is essentially saying, “What if your technology helped you stay on track instead of constantly derailing you?”
Of course, the success of something like Focus depends entirely on execution. The interface needs to be genuinely intuitive, the smart home integration reliable, and the filtering system actually useful rather than frustrating. But the concept addresses a real problem that a lot of us are struggling with: how to benefit from technology without letting it dominate our attention.
Tech companies have been competing for every second of our focus so there’s something almost radical about a device designed to give us less, not more. Focus isn’t trying to replace your phone or become another screen demanding your attention. It’s positioning itself as the thoughtful middleman, the calm voice in the chaos, the tool that helps you engage with technology on your terms.
When you read that headline, you could have two questions: Was it really necessary? And/or, why didn’t someone think of it before? If you think your monitor is doing just fine with the PS5 (like it is for me), you will probably have the answer to the second question. But if you have been following the recent PlayStation, moreover console gaming, updates Sony is making, I am sure you’ll guess why Sony is investing in an official monitor for its game console.
Sony recently dropped the first wireless desktop speakers – Pulse Elevate – to pair with the PlayStation 5. At first, you could presume these speakers matched the aesthetic sophistication of the gaming console, while providing audio quality that serious gamers would demand. That’s true, but now with the follow-up; this dedicated monitor, it all seems like a bigger plan. A plan to create Sony’s own gaming ecosystem that feels like a natural extension of the PlayStation’s futuristic design language.
However you feel about it, Sony’s new monitor, ‘designed from the ground up for the PlayStation 5’ demands your attention. Even though it is made specially for the PS5, it can be used with a PC. Highlight, of course, is the integrated charging hook, attached to the monitor stand, which holds and recharges your DualSense wireless controller when you’re not using it. That USB-C cable you have been losing all this time can now go into a safe drawer for good (until you break the holder loose from the monitor that is).
The 27-inch 1440p LCD monitor designed for gaming, per se, was unveiled at PlayStation’s State of Play Japan recently. It features a Quad high-definition (2560 x 1440) IPS screen that offers HDR and Auto HDR Tone Mapping support. The display, Sony affirms, has a refresh rate of 120 Hz when playing games on the PlayStation 5. But with variable refresh support, it can scale that up to 240 Hz with a compatible PC or Mac.
According to the press information, this official PlayStation monitor is slated to be available in the US and Japan sometime in 2026. Sony remains tight-lipped about the pricing for the monitor, which features two HDMI ports, a DisplayPort, a pair of USB Type-A ports, one USB Type-C port, and a 3.5mm audio jack for connectivity. It also has a built-in stereo speaker to make your gaming sessions more intriguing.
Alongside the 27-inch gaming monitor, Sony has also unveiled a PlayStation 5 Digital Edition for Japan only. It will be priced at ¥55,000 (approx. $355) and will begin shipping in Japan from November 21, 2025.
Why settle for a normal computer monitor when you can get your hands… err… eyes on a transparent computer monitor that’s designed to impress and go easy on your vision? Meet the Phantom. Designed and created by Vision Instruments, Phantom is touted as the world’s first transparent computer monitor.
Yes, there have been iterations of a similar context in the past, but none have really impressed us productively as this one does. The monitor, the company says, “projects your content into real space, merging the digital and physical worlds.” The product is built around similar technology to a head-up display (HUD) used in aircraft or vehicles. It may be an effective way of achieving transparency, but what really sets the Phantom apart is its adjustable transparency. With just a quick setting change between three presets, it can transform from a transparent display into a traditional monitor whenever you like.
As Vision Instruments explains on its website, the Phantom “merges the physical and digital worlds,” allowing users to seamlessly shift focus between the on-screen content and the real world behind it. Unlike traditional monitors, which force you to look away to rest your eyes, the Phantom lets you do so naturally. Doctors recommend that people with long work hours turn away from the screens and look at different things to reduce eye fatigue. With the Phantom, it’s just possible by just gazing through the monitor itself, at least the company wants us to believe it that way.
Whether you buy into that promise or not, some early believers already have. Vision Instruments is now taking preorders for the Founders Edition of the Phantom, limited to just 10 examples worldwide. There is no word on the pricing structure, but we learn that the transparent monitor is likely to ship in the US by the end of 2025, and that three units of the Founders Edition are already booked, at the time of writing.
Before you make up your mind, here’s a brief of the Phantom’s specifications. The monitor features a USB Type-C and an HDMI port to work directly with any computer, mobile device, or gaming system that can connect via these ports. The 24-inch 4K monitor, as mentioned, distinguishes itself from the other transparent options you may have seen by featuring adjustable transparency.
It keeps the background visible through it, and seems to appear like a floating screen in the middle of the room until you choose to toggle the settings, and the screen turns into an opaque monitor, like the one I’m typing this on. This concept of a see-through monitor, Visual Instruments says, “allows you to instantly relax your eyes, anytime you want.” The Phantom further touts a 16:9 aspect ratio, has up to 5,000 nits of peak brightness, and boasts a 100% coverage of the sRGB color space.
TVs stay bolted to walls where they were installed years ago. Monitors sit on desks connected to power outlets and computers through cables that limit how far they can go. Tablets work anywhere, but shrink everything down to sizes that feel cramped during longer sessions. Most screens plant themselves in one spot and expect you to come to them instead of moving to where you actually need them.
Samsung’s Movingstyle lineup builds screens meant to follow you around instead of staying put. The twenty-seven-inch touchscreen and thirty-two-inch M7 monitor both roll on stands with wheels hidden underneath, so moving them between rooms takes minimal effort. The smaller version also detaches from its stand completely and runs on battery for three hours when you carry it by the handle built into the kickstand.
The touchscreen model weighs enough to feel substantial but not so much that carrying it around feels like a workout. The white finish and slim bezels keep it looking clean rather than gadget-heavy. The kickstand holds the battery and all the internal components in one integrated module, which means fewer parts that could fail over time compared to designs that scatter everything separately.
Touch response works smoothly for tapping through menus, swiping between apps, or sketching directly on screen when ideas need capturing quickly. The same screen works just as well from across the room when you’re using the remote to browse shows. This dual approach handles both close-up work and relaxed viewing without requiring different devices for different situations.
The M7 grows to thirty-two inches with 4K resolution, positioning itself more as a rolling workstation. The stand adjusts height and tilts the screen to whatever angle works best. Wheels roll quietly across floors, whether you’re moving over hardwood or carpet. The power cable runs through the stand’s column to keep everything tidy instead of trailing along the floor waiting to get tripped over.
Both screens run Tizen OS with access to Samsung TV Plus for streaming without subscriptions, Gaming Hub for playing console games through cloud services, and the Art Store displaying museum-quality pieces when the screen sits idle. User profiles keep recommendations separated, so everyone in the house gets content matched to what they actually watch instead of a jumbled mix.
The smaller Movingstyle might start in the kitchen, showing recipes during breakfast prep, roll to the living room for afternoon video calls, then end up in the bedroom for late-night shows. The M7 could sit in the home office all week for work, then roll out to the patio for weekend movie nights or into the workout space for following along with fitness videos.
Ports sit centered on the back panel instead of scattered along edges, which keeps cables organized and the rear view clean when the screen sits visible from multiple angles. Both models switch between landscape and portrait orientation smoothly, useful for vertical content or using the Movingstyle as a presentation tool during meetings.
The Movingstyle lineup treats screens as objects that should follow your routines instead of forcing you to build schedules around where they happen to be installed permanently. The combination of touchscreen interaction, battery-powered portability, and rolling mobility brings genuine flexibility to spaces where fixed installations would limit how and when you actually use them. Samsung’s approach feels overdue for technology meant to serve daily life.

With a battery life that supports up to 20 hours of continuous use or 5 hours with the highest backlight setting, BYOK ensures you can write for extended periods without needing constant recharging.
Features that Cater to Every Writer’s Needs
Night Mode
BYOK offers a comprehensive suite of features aimed at enhancing the writing process. The adjustable backlight is particularly noteworthy, allowing writers to toggle between three brightness levels—low, medium, and high. This feature ensures that writing can continue in any lighting condition, from dimly lit environments to late-night sessions. The backlight’s thoughtful design reduces eye strain, making it easier to stay focused and productive, no matter the time of day.
The design of BYOK is as functional as it is sleek. It has a magnetic design and a pop-out stand, allowing for versatile positioning that can be customized to your comfort. With a built-in magnet at the back, BYOK supports different viewing heights and angles, promoting an eye-level viewing option that reduces strain and enhances ergonomic comfort. Whether placed on a flat surface or elevated using magnetic stands, BYOK offers unlimited viewing positions, ensuring that you can set up your workspace to reduce strain and enhance comfort. This flexibility makes BYOK suitable for various environments, whether working at a desk, standing, or lounging.
Versatile connectivity is another strength of BYOK. The device supports multiple data transfer options, including Wi-Fi syncing, allowing seamless integration with platforms like Google Drive. This ensures that your work is always up-to-date and accessible across devices. For those who prefer a wired connection, the USB-C port provides a quick and reliable way to transfer data directly to your computer. With these options, BYOK guarantees that your documents are securely backed up and easily retrieved.
Storage is another area where BYOK excels. The device has 16MB of internal storage, enough to hold over a million words. This ample space means you won’t have to worry about losing your work, even if the battery runs out. The intuitive and simple menu, which includes features like word count display and battery monitoring, keeps you informed and focused on what matters most—your writing.
Design Excellence
Another highlight is the device’s fast-refresh monochrome LCD screen, which provides a smooth typing experience without the lag commonly associated with e-ink displays. This ensures that every keystroke is captured accurately, allowing you to maintain your writing flow without interruption.
The product’s simplicity extends to its user interface, which is navigated using three tactile push buttons. This intuitive design enhances concentration and productivity by allowing you to focus solely on your writing without getting bogged down by complex menus or unnecessary features.
Seamless Integration into Your Writing Workflow
BYOK’s thoughtful design ensures that it integrates seamlessly into any writing workflow. The process is straightforward: power the device, connect your preferred keyboard using wired or wireless, set up wireless syncing if desired, and start typing. This simplicity allows you to dive straight into your writing without distractions, making BYOK an invaluable tool for writers.
The specifications of BYOK further emphasize its practicality. An ESP32-S3 processor powers the device and features a 129.00mm by 37.60mm LCD screen, offering ample space for your text. It’s available in sleek black and white, with a potential third color option. The device also provides three different font sizes and three backlight brightness levels, catering to various visual needs and preferences.
Designed with Writers in Mind
Niklas Sjolinder, the founder of BYOK, was inspired by the challenges he faced with existing writing tools. As he worked on his own book, he found it difficult to maintain focus due to endless tabs, notifications, and distractions. While using a distraction-free device, he appreciated the concept but quickly noticed drawbacks such as high costs, limited performance, and restrictive built-in keyboards. These frustrations led him to envision BYOK—a writing tool that would be both budget-friendly and versatile, offering exceptional value by providing the flexibility to use any keyboard while eliminating distractions. This personal journey and desire to create a better writing experience drove Sjolinder to develop BYOK, focusing on what truly matters: the freedom to write without interruptions.
We live in a three-dimensional world and see in three dimensions, and yet the computers and mobile devices we use every day are confined to flat, 2D space. Mixed reality and spatial computing are trying to bridge that gap, but they still project flat virtual objects in the real world and, more importantly, require wearing goggles or headsets. In fact, most stereoscopic 3D experiences require some sort of eyewear, at the very least glasses that guide images to the correct eye. That is until monitor makers have gotten smarter and have started to implement 3D displays that don’t need glasses to work, like the new Samsung Odyssey 3D shown off at Gamescom 2024 this week.
Our eyes see in 3D because they can view objects at two different angles due to the space between them. Stereoscopic 3D tries to mimic our innate binocular vision by projecting two different images, shifted slightly at an angle, which are then sent to the right or left eye as necessary. This re-direction requires polarizing filters to work, which is why people have to wear glasses when watching 3D movies. Impressive as the experience might be, it’s definitely inconvenient, especially for those that wear prescription glasses, and can’t be used for general-purpose computing, until now.
The Samsung Odyssey 3D is the latest in a new breed of computer monitors that promise this same stereoscopic 3D experience without having to put anything in front of your eyes. The monitor has built-in stereo cameras that track the movement and position of each eye. View mapping creates two sets of images which are then displayed separately to each eye thanks to a lenticular lens on the front panel. It creates the same effect of seeing floating 3D images but without the hassle of glasses or headsets.
The monitor is primarily targeted at gamers, which is why it boasts features like 4K resolution, a fast 1m gray-to-gray response time, and a 165Hz refresh rate. Of course, the need to see 3D images as they truly are isn’t just limited to entertainment, since those creating assets for these games will also want to check if they’re 3D models are displaying correctly. Monitors like the Samsung Odyssey 3D will eventually become an invaluable tool for designers, artists, and content creators who might want to work in 3D space right from the start.
Of course, this glasses-free 3D monitor also functions as a 2D monitor, and you can seamlessly switch from one mode to another, depending on your use case. It also features an ergonomic Height Adjustment Stand, tilt capabilities, as well as HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 connectivity. Samsung hasn’t disclosed when the Samsung Odyssey 3D will launch and at what cost, but considering this monitor was first teased back in January at CES 2024, it probably shouldn’t be long now.
Of the many disorders that afflict people today, diabetes is perhaps the literally most painful one to monitor and maintain. Even with advancements in medical technology, pricking your finger is still the most accurate way to measure blood sugar levels. At the same time, taking in insulin often involves painful and tedious injections. And it isn’t just humans who are hurting from these, but the environment also suffers from all the waste these life-saving tools produce. It’s probably high time to have a glucose monitor and insulin delivery system that is not only painless and convenient but also sustainable, which is exactly what this minimalist-looking device concept is proposing.
CGMs or Continuous Glucose Monitors are one of the less invasive methods of keeping tabs on your blood sugar levels, though most do require inserting a sensor under the skin that is read by a device that sticks to your body over that site. When it comes to injecting insulin, on the other hand, insulin pumps remove the need to always pierce your skin for every injection, as a needle stays in its position for a day or two before needing to be replaced, unless the pump is one that actually stays on your body and above your skin. If these two devices sound almost related, it’s because they really are, and the Ingo CGM and insulin pump concept actually combines these two functions into a single, reusable, and sustainable device.
This oval-shaped device combines two critical functions in a single compact design that diabetes patients can discreetly wear on their bodies. Ingo can even have different colors to match skin tones so they won’t stand out as much as more obvious medical devices. There’s also the element of convenience as the device can be easily recharged on a wireless base, while the CGM sensor and pump needle are integrated into the sensor patches that stick over your skin.
Ingo also differs from existing CGMs and insulin pumps in the way that it tries to reduce the amount of waste as much as possible. Instead of disposable parts, it uses reusable components and recyclable patches, lessening the burden on the environment that these solutions often place on the planet. The rechargeable device and refillable insulin tank also prolong the life of the product or at least those parts that shouldn’t have to be thrown away frequently. Ingo is definitely an interesting proposal for a more humane and more environment-friendly way to keep diabetes patients living healthy and meaningful lives while also taking care of the planet they’re living on.
Inspiration can strike when you least expect it, but there are often places and events that can help get the creative juices flowing. The chatter of a lightly crowded cafe, the pause after attending a convention, or even simply moving from your desk to the couch can sometimes make you want to reach out for a sketchbook or even a digital canvas. The latter is fine if you have a tablet like an iPad, but if you prefer doing your designs on a computer, you’re a bit out of luck. Designers and artists these days need a certain degree of freedom and mobility, and Wacom is attempting to fill that need with a new product that isn’t just a screen you can draw on but also a beautiful computer monitor you can take anywhere you go.
Wacom is like the Apple of the digital creative world, making products that let artists, designers, and engineers bring their ideas to life. Its Cintiq brand, in particular, has been the household name for years when it came to “pen displays” or screens you can draw on with a stylus. These have traditionally been as large as computer monitors, though there are now smaller options within the 13 to 16-inch range. While you can definitely shove the smallest Wacom Cintiq or One 12 inside a bag, their designs clearly shout that they’re really meant to be drawing tools more than anything else.
Wacom Movink’s biggest change might be technical, but it’s a technology that is allowing the brand to move in a slightly different direction from the rest of its pen displays. In a nutshell, it is Wacom’s first-ever OLED pen display, immediately setting itself apart from the LCDs of the rest of its portfolio. This gives it the advantage of being able to display richer and deeper blacks as well as a wider range of colors, which will help designs pop out better and be more color-accurate.
This OLED technology, however, also brings the advantage of making the Movink the thinnest and lightest of Wacom’s pen displays. It also has a sleeker design that looks more in line with portable monitors in the market today. Given that it does perform exactly like a portable OLED touch display, that’s not an inaccurate assessment. It still has thick bezels, but not as wide and egregious as on the Cintiq line. There’s also no rubber “bumper” around the edges, resulting in a simpler and more minimalist appearance.
Aside from the display upgrade, the Wacom Movink is functionally on par with the company’s other products. Where it really shines, however, is the newer and more modern design that makes it not only more portable but also more presentable. It’s not only a design tool made for designers but also one that designers will be proud to pull out of their bag and show off in public, empowering them to work on the go, whenever and wherever their muse calls.
Multiple portable displays boost productivity by enabling multitasking and reducing the need to switch between applications. With extra screens, you can have reference materials, email, and active projects open simultaneously, streamlining your workflow and saving valuable time. This setup is especially beneficial for professionals, students, and anyone needing to stay productive while on the go. It allows for a more efficient use of time and resources, making it easier to keep up with the demands of today’s fast-paced work environments. The market for portable displays isn’t as saturated as other tech sectors, primarily due to the niche demand and the technical challenges associated with creating lightweight, durable, and high-performance screens that can easily integrate with a range of devices. Creating a product that balances portability with screen quality, battery life, and ease of use requires significant innovation and investment. Among the options available, the FlipGo from JSAUX stands out as a compelling solution for several reasons. Let’s dig in and explore how it addresses the core needs of power users.
First, the essential feature of the FlipGo is its portability without sacrificing display quality. It’s slim, light, and easy to carry with laptops, tablets, and smartphones so that you can create a multi-screen workstation anywhere. The magnetic attachment system securely connects to the Snap Stand or monitor arms, making the setup intuitive. This design allows the portable display to easily integrate with laptops, tablets, and certain smartphones, offering a simple user experience. The package includes four sets of magnets in FlipGo. The monitor can be magnetized to a monitor arm with various magnetic mounts like the Snap VESA adapter. This makes FlipGo a clear choice when you need to position it anywhere.
You can also use the Flex Folio, which serves as a stand and a case. This origami-like accessory provides protection and supports the display when necessary. Regardless of a portable external display’s portability, it’s not worthwhile if the quality is subpar. This is particularly true when considering screen size and resolution. You can choose between two dimensions: 13.5 inches and 16 inches. Both provide ample screen space without feeling cramped. The 13.5-inch model weighs 1.1 kg, while the 16-inch model is slightly heavier at 1.6 kg, underscoring its portability.
Magnetic Design
However, this display isn’t just notable for its size and weight. It also offers remarkable quality. The smaller model has a 2.2K resolution (2256×1504), and the larger model boasts a 2.5K resolution (2560×1600). Both feature a 100% sRGB color gamut for vivid, crisp visuals. A standard 60Hz refresh rate further improves the display’s smoothness.
FlipGo arranges desktop displays vertically for a more focused, productive experience. Its square-like aspect ratio minimizes head movement. The ultra-narrow bezel connects the screens, offering an uninterrupted view. It simplifies tasks like writing papers or handling multiple sources. It also supports split-screen browsing, making it easy to manage various desktop windows. As a day trader, this setup is particularly beneficial. It allows the stock charts for technical analysis to be on top while the trading software is at the bottom.
FlipGo powers up directly from your laptop’s USB-C port, using a single cable to light up two screens for One to Duo or UltraView mode. When connected to an external power supply, it also charges the laptop. Although FlipGo has two separate displays, it can be a single screen to present content. You can switch between these displays with just a click. FlipGo ensures that neither your productivity nor your perspective is ever limited. FlipGo’s neatest feature is undoubtedly its touch and gesture support for macOS and Windows. Not only does it function as a typical touchscreen, but it also serves as a secondary touchpad for your MacBook, enhancing your productivity.
Regarding productivity, the built-in hub varies slightly between the Pro, Touch Screen, and Standard models. The Pro model includes a display switch button, two USB-C 3.2 ports for Mac and Windows, a Mini HDMI (HD), an OTG USB-A 2.0, an OTG USB-C 2.0, a menu jog dial, and a power button. The latter model, however, has two HD inputs but lacks the Display Switch Button.
The FlipGo comes in two sizes and two tiers: Pro and Standard. Each provides different features. The Pro tier has UltraView mode with a single cable for dual-screen use and supports DisplayLink. The Standard tier does not include Pro features but can be upgraded for touchscreen capabilities, turning your FlipGo into a portable tablet. Regardless of tier, all FlipGos offer the same visual quality, resolution, 400 nits of brightness, and color accuracy. The 13.5-inch model costs $379, and the 16-inch model is $479. Both models include a 12-month warranty, lifetime support, and international shipping from May 2024.
