Guys I need a portable monitor for dual screen setup to pair with Macbook Air M3

Can share link to few options? the 'cheaper' the better

only requirement need to have cover and USB c as I need to bring it for travelling

I just purchased the MSI MP161 portable screen for RM550. It can be powered and used for display with a single USB-C connection. It features an FHD resolution with a 60Hz refresh rate. It also comes with a soft pouch cover and a built-in stand. Not bad!

used ipad air

how would an used ipad air be cheap?

Dont buy any unknown brand that looks too good to be true. Even its expensive.

eg. 120ghz, 16in, ultra light.

Most probably wil lbreak in. 1week. Experienced before.

Get LG Gram 16" or Ipad

I already have iPad air , but still not convenience / practical to use as second screen (to me la)

prefer a dedicated screen (maybe ard 13")

RM1300 used Ipad 9/10th compare some useless Portable FHD Monitor @ RM500~RM600


What you get extra :

A14 Bionic Ship
Own Battery
It operate alone.
Super Liquid Retina Screen @ 2360 x 1640 resolution
Touch Screen.
Support Apple Pencil
Internal Storage

Important :
NATIVELY WORK IN APPLE ECOSYSTEM. ( sharing file, pairing mode with macbook )


If you are Web-dev, you need extra screen, not neccessary 2nd screen.
I use alot tab, browser. but they no need to be on same device same time.
So a tablet work better than extend display.

do you know how to extend screen to IPAD?


for the 1st time i heard this....

ipad not convinient vs portable monitor...
