I've been using an Arzopa 15" 4K HDR portable screen at 400 nits,600grams, and cost me £260.
Works really well.
Not sure why this Philips model made news, but oh well.

God I love these Chinese brands. Arz = 'arse', zopa means also 'arse' in Slavic countries. So... 'AssAss'. Wow. Probably fitting, too.
Alright. Go easy on your arzopa, man.

I second Arzopa portable screens.  Read good reviews from buyers who actually bought them from Aliexpress.  Plus their marketing materials (images/posters on the product description page) is way better than the next best brand of portable monitors from Lepow.  Apparently Lenovo portables are fragile and unreliable, so are Blitzwolf portables.  I would currently rate Arzopa as #1, Lepow as #2, and everyone else Philips/Lenovo/Blitzwolf etc. a distant #3!

And BTW, my God these portable monitors are way too expensive.  You can get a pretty good 15.6 inch laptop IPS screen shipped from Aliexpress for $100-120 USD. Add $25 for a good LCD controller and another $15 for materials to build the frame and you've got a pretty excellent DIY portable screen for $135-$145 USD!!

"I've been using an Arzopa 15" 4K HDR portable screen at 400 nits,600grams, and cost me £260."

Just ignore these A-holes.  China been quietly sneaking up to the top of the tech food chain for sometime now.  First it was Huawei with the best most economical 5G in the world!  China recently produced 7nm chip using domestic equipment while Intel still stuck at 10nm and has to go to Taiwan or SK to make 7nm/5nm chips! 

Anyways, Arpoza is one of those Chinese companies that snuck its way past competitors from the West to sit at the top!  There are still ignorant fools out there believe West is superior to China.  Soon, West will have no more space station as Russia backs out of ISS.  Can only drool watching China do stuff in space in the Chinese space station that the collective West used to be able to do beyond 2024!
