Flicker-free Technology It's time to say goodbye to those tired, strained eyes. Designo MB169C+ features TÜV Rheinland-certified ASUS Flicker-Free technology to reduce flicker for a comfortable viewing experience. This technology helps minimise instances of eyestrain and other damaging ailments, especially when you spend long, countless hours in front of a display watching favourite videos. All you need is a single USB Type-C cable for power and video transmission MB169C+ is the world's first 15.6-inch portable companion display that uses a single USB Type-C connection for both power and video transmission from your host device. This means you have less cables to work with, so you get a neater work area. The reversible USB Type-C connector makes connecting devices simple and easy, and you won't be damaging the cable or port by plugging in devices the “wrong” way. Slim and ultra-portable modern design MB169C+ works best as a secondary display when you're conducting dual-monitor presentations, and helps you get things done more efficiently. It tips the scales at a lightweight 800g, and with its ultra-slim 8.5mm profile — it definitely isn't going to weigh you down.

You get four different crosshair options to suit your game environment; while the timer keeps track of elapsed time – especially useful in real-time strategy games. Review: Really great secondary monitor for a portable office setup - Loving this screen - lightweight, durable case/stand and connects with one single usb-c cable (supplied) to my MacBook Pro Touchbar 15”. The single cable is the winner for me - quick and easy to connect with power and data running down the same cable and works on mains power or battery (although obviously it does drain the battery of the MBP faster). The image quality is not blow-away amazing and could do with being able to go brighter, but is adequate a secondary monitor on-the-go. I am still working on getting something compact to increase it’s height to make it more ergonomic. I work in many different places where usual office setups are not supplied, so it is great to be able to ‘move in’ and make an efficient and ergonomic office desk setup in seconds. Highly recommended. Review: Great portable screen - Great little product. MAKE SURE THAT YOUR USB C IS THUNDERBOLT. I bought this screen to help when working from home, it is like a big tablet that fits in my bag alongside my laptop. Being powered and providing video feed form the single USB C is excellent, means I no longer need a permanent monitor on the desk to have a 2 screen set up. The stand could be better, magnets would be nicer than velcro, but its good enough to use. Brightness isn't as good as my laptop screen, but I have a pretty decent work laptop, anyone using a sub £500 machine would probably see this being as good or better than their current laptop screen. Would I recommend it at £165? Probably not, but if you can get it for £120 or less, its a no brainer. ## Features - Portable 15.6-inch Full HD 1920 x 1080 display with a USB Type-C connector (DP Alt mode) for user convenience and compatibility with future devices - Weighing just 0.8 kg, it is the world's lightest 15.6 inch companion display; it also has a super-slim 8.5 mm profile - ASUS ultra-low blue light and quickfit virtual scale - Compatible devices: ASUS G752 notebook (17.3-inch), ASUS UX501VW notebook (15.6-inch), Apple MacBook (12-inch) & Chromebook Pixel (12.85-inch) - DisplayPort USB Type C not USB 3.0 Type C - 90LM0180-B01170 - Download the correct driver from ASUS website and ensure the driver is properly installed and activated - Connectivity technology: VGA; Display size: 15.6 inches; Display technology: LED ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01B6JD88E | | Aspect Ratio | 16:9 | | Aspect ratio | 16:9 | | Best Sellers Rank | 233,222 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 3,763 in Monitors | | Brand | ASUS | | Brand Name | ASUS | | Colour | Black/Silver | | Compatible Devices | ASUS G752 notebook (17.3-inch), ASUS UX501VW notebook (15.6-inch), Apple MacBook (12-inch) & Chromebook Pixel (12.85-inch) | | Contrast Ratio | 700:1 | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 519 Reviews | | Display Technology | LED | | Display Type | IPS | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00889349269039, 04712900269031 | | Hardware Connectivity | USB | | Has Color Screen | Yes | | Image Brightness | 180 cd/m² | | Image contrast ratio | 700:1 | | Is Electric | Yes | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 0.3D x 14.9W x 9.3H centimetres | | Item Weight | 800 g | | Manufacturer | Asus | | Maximum Display Resolution | 1920 x 1080 | | Model Name | MB169C+ | | Model Number | 90LM0180-B01170 | | Mounting Type | Wall Mount | | Native Resolution | 1920x1080 | | Network Connectivity Technology | USB Type-C, DisplayPort | | Picture Quality Enhancement Technology | Ultra Low Blue Light Technology, Flicker Free Technology, IPS Panel | | Power Consumption Size | 7 Watts | | Processor Count | 1 | | Product Features | Built-in camera^No^On Screen Display (OSD)^Operating temperature range:0 - 40 °C | | Product Warranty | 2 year manufacturer | | Refresh Rate | 60Hz | | Resolution | FHD 1080p | | Response Time | 5 Milliseconds | | Screen Finish Type | Glossy | | Screen Size | 15.6 Inches | | Screen size | 15.6 Inches | | Screen surface description | Glossy | | Specific Uses For Product | Photo Editing | | Total USB Ports | 1 | | Total Video Out Ports | 1 | | UPC | 889349269039 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Warranty Type | Manufacturer's warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** ASUS - **Screen size:** 15.6 Inches - **Resolution:** FHD 1080p - **Aspect ratio:** 16:9 - **Screen surface description:** Glossy - **Image contrast ratio:** 700:1 - **Response time:** 5 Milliseconds - **Refresh rate:** 60Hz - **Display resolution maximum:** 1920 x 1080 - **Special feature:** Built-in camera^No^On Screen Display (OSD)^Operating temperature range:0 - 40 °C ## Images ![ASUS MB169C+ 15.6 Inch Portable Monitor, FHD (1920x1080), IPS, Flicker free, Low Blue Light, TUV certified, Only compatible with USB-C over Display Port - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61-RgPRnKZL.jpg) ![ASUS MB169C+ 15.6 Inch Portable Monitor, FHD (1920x1080), IPS, Flicker free, Low Blue Light, TUV certified, Only compatible with USB-C over Display Port - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61liMGUp6SL.jpg) ![ASUS MB169C+ 15.6 Inch Portable Monitor, FHD (1920x1080), IPS, Flicker free, Low Blue Light, TUV certified, Only compatible with USB-C over Display Port - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/611ww3OevLS.jpg) ![ASUS MB169C+ 15.6 Inch Portable Monitor, FHD (1920x1080), IPS, Flicker free, Low Blue Light, TUV certified, Only compatible with USB-C over Display Port - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61gyGmIi-hL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How do i connect this with laptop only having usb c ss, is there any connectors which will output video from my laptop to this screen?** A: Are you sure you have usb c ss and not usb ss?

Not for graphic design though. *by R***O on 3 February 2017* I am a web developer and take my laptop around to work with. Screen space is limited so I decided to get the ASUS MB169C+. It connects to a USB type C port with thunderbolt 3 displayport alternative mode support. So your computer has to have a usb type c WITH a lightning logo around it. If you are not sure, check on the manufacturer website. The case that comes with the screen does a good job of protecting and doubles as a stand. A bit complicated at first to figure out but works well once you get the hang of it. It can be adjusted at 3 angles which I thought was genius. The monitor is practically plug and play, you connect the cable and boom, your ready to go. Monitor turns on automatically and your pc/mac/laptop should pick it up instantly. The monitor itself has some pretty impressive features from the other bigger ASUS monitors. It has presets for things like Gaming, Theatre, Reading, sRGB etc. There are some cool technologies for a wider viewing angle and sharper images. All work pretty well, I was impressed. But being a web developer I desired true colours so I went straight to sRGB mode. Then I saw the first weakness of the monitor. Side by side my laptop screen I noticed the colours were off. I have a Spyder 4 and 5 colour calibrators and my laptop screen was at full 100% sRGB gamut volume and levels. I thought maybe the monitor just needed calibrating too. So after 2 hours of calibrating and profiling, the best result the calibration could get was a measly 64% sRGB gamut volume and 63% sRGB gamut levels. Only greens could reach close to true sRGB levels but else where it was just bad. I still kept the screen simply because you just can't find a better screen for this size, weight, features and resolution. I use this screen to code, read and display any other useful information. I do all my graphic design on my main screen for true colour reproduction. Pros - HD Resolution - ASUS monitor features - 60fps capable - Great case that doubles as a stand - Size and weight - Matte screen, no reflection or shine Cons - Colours are bad!
