ViewSonic VG1457 dual-screen portable monitor ships with compact design but weak color and brightness
↗
ViewSonic’s VG1457 portable monitor delivers dual 14-inch IPS panels in a 2.6-pound package, yet falls short on color accuracy and panel brightness.
Engineers who need extra screen real-estate on the road now have a sub-$350 dual-panel option, but must trade off color fidelity and brightness for portability. The lack of HDMI may also limit compatibility with older devices.

Dual 14-inch 1200p IPS panels fold into a 2.6-pound package with three USB-C ports and 65 W power passthrough.
Color performance and brightness (250 nits) lag behind single-panel competitors in the same price bracket.
No HDMI port restricts use with non-USB-C devices and may require dongles for legacy hardware.
