What owners think

The Word on the Street

4.6/5 (18 reviews)
👍 Buyers love the price-to-performance ratio and how easily it connects to phones, laptops, and consoles.
👎 A few owners report the touchscreen doesn't work at all, which is a dealbreaker for a touch monitor.
🤔 Some praise the portability but note the display quality is just okay, not great.

The proof

Performance

The 1080p IPS panel is fine for documents, browsing, and watching video on the go. HDR support is listed, but color performance sits near the bottom of our database, so don't expect vibrant, accurate tones. The touchscreen works well with laptops and phones, though one buyer reported receiving a unit without touch functionality, which is a red flag for quality control. The built-in speakers are a nice bonus for a portable panel, but they're tiny 1W drivers, so keep expectations low.

vs Competition

Against the ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQL5A or LG UltraGear 27G640A-B, the QQU 156 is a completely different animal. Those are 27" desktop gaming monitors with high refresh rates and real color performance. The QQU is a travel screen, and it beats them on portability and price. If you need a second monitor for a desk, get the ASUS or LG. If you need something to throw in a bag with a laptop, the QQU makes more sense.

Price

Value & Pricing

At around $70 USD, this is a solid deal for a portable second screen. You're getting touch, USB-C, and a lightweight build for less than most name-brand portable monitors. Just don't expect desktop-grade color or gaming chops.

Overview

The QQU 156 is a portable 15.6" touchscreen monitor that nails the basics for travel and second-screen duty. It's compact, light, and surprisingly feature-rich for the price, but don't expect it to replace a real desktop display. The one thing to know: this is a travel companion, not a gaming monitor, no matter what the listing says.

Common Questions

Q: Does the touchscreen work with all devices?

It works with most laptops and phones over USB-C, but some devices may need drivers or specific cable setups. One buyer reported getting a unit without touch, so test it right away.

Q: Can I use this as a gaming monitor?

You can connect a console or PC, but the 60Hz panel and weak color performance make it a poor choice for serious gaming. It's fine for casual play on the go.

Q: Does it need external power?

Usually no. A single USB-C cable can handle both video and power from a laptop or phone. Some devices may need a second cable for extra power.

Who Should Skip This

If you're looking for a desktop gaming monitor with high refresh rates and accurate colors, this isn't it. Go get an ASUS TUF or LG UltraGear instead. If you need a color-critical display for photo or video work, look elsewhere too.

Verdict

The QQU 156 is a good buy if you need a cheap, portable touchscreen for travel or as a laptop sidekick. It's not a gaming monitor, and the color is mediocre, but for the price, it's hard to complain. Just verify the touchscreen works when it arrives.
