ViewSonic Reveals 15.6-inch 4K OLED Portable Monitor
ViewSonic has revealed a new 15.6-inch 4K OLED portable display, model name VX1622-K, to the Chinese public as reported by IT Home last week. This easily movable and convenient monitor is expected to get a global release in the near future - various hardware news outlets have found related documentation on Viewsonic's global site, as well as standard drivers signed for Windows 10 & 11 - so it seems that the VX1622-K is not destined to be a China-exclusive model.
Viewsonic's portable OLED monitor is similar in size to displays featured on industry standard laptops - coming in at 15.6 inches - its main surface is treated with an anti-glare multi-layer film. The panel can support resolutions going up to 4K (3840x2160px) resolution, with an aspect ratio of 16:9. It is capable of displaying a 60 Hz refresh rate, and can reach 440cd/㎡ maximum brightness, alongside a contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1. Screen responsive is really good with a 1 ms measured rating. Visual professionals/creative-types should be happy with the display's 100% Adobe RGB and DCI-P3 color gamut coverage, although there is a "TBD" marker next to this information on the spec sheet. Color depth is rated at 1.07 billion colors (8-bit + FRC) and settings can provide an HDR True Black 500 standard. The VX1622-K can be hooked up to computer hardware via its Mini-HDMI or Type-C connectors.

:laugh:
Joking aside: these higher quality panel portable displays are making the concept of DIY portable workstations / gaming PCs more and more tantalizing.
But yeah. Even 1080p is pretty dense here.
Answer me this, what’s the size of an A4 sheet of paper printed at 600dpi laserjet?
===
Specs look good to me. Would like to have one.
And just because you can print at 600dpi, does not mean there is a purpose to it, I mean those printer people want to sell you new printers right? so yeah ermm "this one can print at 2000dpi !! your print looks like a smudgy mess, buy our new printer"
And a display that is used for more then video? so...a static image....ok so what? what is the point of 4k on a screen this size?
:)
