My TRIO is mirroring my laptop screen, how can I change this? (MacOS Users)
Plug your monitor, go to “System Preferences- Display-Arrangement”, uncheck the “Mirror Displays” box. For Catalina user using USB A port, if you want to use your screen on the left side, please download the driver but not DisplayLink Manager App.
If I want TRIO on my left side but my display is upside down, what should I do?
Please go to display settings and select "landscape flipped" under display orientation.
If you are a Catalina user using the USB A port, please download the newest DisplayLink driver, but not the DisplayLink Manager App.
I connect my TRIO, the screen doesn't turn on but says "please wait"
Please make sure that the USB cable connect to the correct USB port on the TRIO. Make sure it is connected to the port with a FILLED IN CIRCLE not the port with the POWER PLUG.

It actually works! The quality is very crisp and you can have a very nice second monitor that you can take with you.
You need Drivers for the Mac OS but once you have that, it works flawlessly. So far, I love it.
The Not So Good:
It's a little bulky, and at first when closing the screen, it wants to fall off the back of your computer instead (see video). That will probably get better with more use. It's just a little clunky.
Magnets:
I'm not sure how magnets on the back of the screen will impact the OEM display, but this is a work laptop so that's inconsequential to me luckily. I think it'll be fine though. The magnets aren't crazy strong. It's just to balance it. The weight of the screen goes directly onto the tabletop surface below your laptop.
The box comes with a USB/C-port cord, extra magnets (4 are only needed but there are others) and the sliding monitor.
It is adherent to follow the instructions carefully in the manual, not the book. Once the adhesive magnets are put on the laptop the only way to remove them is to take a hair-dryer (yes the manual says this) and put it on medium heat to warm the magnets but not enough to overheat your laptop, then use a rubber scrapper to get them off.
I have put the magnets on my laptop and now they are firm, but the issue is it says that a single screw must be showing near the top 'edge' of the monitor, but also for the base of the monitor to be firmly sat near the hinges so that the monitor is touching the table. I have tried to level this, but the edge was not close enough, and I cannot angle the screen as much without the monitor about to fall off the magnets. This is due to misalignment, which is easier to do since the laptop is closed when placing the stick-on-magnets on the laptop's cover.
Therefore, I will minus a star from this review due to this issue of the adhesive and the steps involved to remove the magnets. So far, when plugging in with the C-Port the monitor works automatically. The USB port has not been tested.
There are three touch buttons on the side of the screen, to adjust the brightness and the other to adjust contrast, saturation, temperature, eyecare, g-sensor, factory reset, and exit.
The 4 magnets provide extra balance in the monitor so it doesn't just fall off like other products so its more firm. It adds some weight to the laptop (I have an ultra-fit laptop) but it is portable and the monitor casing can be moved to slide off of the laptop without pulling.
Update: 7/8/21
I have noticed a light buzzing-like noise when the monitor is plugged in and being used. While not detrimental, it can be annoying if you are in a quiet room and hear this noise.
WARNING: The magnets on the monitor can affect the circuitry in your laptop. Because of the previous issue with misalignment, I had the magnets of the monitor touching the laptop when trying to adjust the screen angle. This caused my keyboard to stop functioning. When I put the magnets touching each other, the keyboard's function came back. Clearly, the magnets are strong enough that they can mess with the circuits. I am using an ultra-thin IdeaPad Flex 14".
The monitor also adds some weight to the laptop despite its thin-looking appearance.
UPDATE: 9/25/22
A year later and this product is starting to show problems. As mentioned before about the circuit issue, it has become worse. Now, even the slightest touch sends the Mobile Trio's screen to "No Signal" display mode. The screen will also randomly malfunction on its own, turning on and off in the middle of work without the laptop or screen being touched. This product has never been dropped and stored in a cushioned case before use.
I have now also tested the USB portion that is not USB C, and it works as intended.
Though it is advertised this product comes with a kick-stand, it does not. This product comes out of the box with the description mentioned above.
While the product's use is valuable, the circuit issues from the magnets and the process of removing the magnets are not. Also, the weight of the product is added to a laptop which, depending on your manufacturer, can cause hair-line breakages in the laptop's case. The first generation IdeaPad Thin Ultra 14" had this issue, unfortunately, but not the circuit one. The second generation which I have mentioned above has a circuit issue due to the magnets.
HOWEVER, the hinge on both monitors has broken. When I try to rotate either monitor towards me from behind my laptop, they fail to rotate. It also looks like the end of the screen starts to become displaced from the edge of the plastic monitor housing. Both the monitor housing and the casing that provides the tracks that the monitor slides along appear to be made from very brittle plastic.
Top reviews from other countries
Good quality. It would be nice if magnets were tiny bit stronger, but it holds well. Unit is quite heavy.
I recommend looking for version2 that is coming out soon, as it is lighter and magnets support moving display right-left to align with laptop.
Colors and resolution is very good. Brightness control buttons are thought out well.
About customer service:
Had to have an interaction with contact@mobilepixels.us, and they are very helpful. No problem with returns by warranty. (I did not want to return through Amazon, since if unit is returned directly to mobilepixels, they could refurbish units onsite.) If you have to do this, I recommend using US mailing box, to make it cheaper to send/receive packages for mobilepixels.
Je met 4 étoiles car :
- Je trouve le prix quand même trop élevé pour un seul écran supplémentaire. Quasiment le prix d’un IPad classique alors qu’il ne s’agit que d’un « simple » écran.
- Le produit est lourd. J’ai du mal à comprendre ce qui justifie un tel poids. L’écran de mon PC portable est beaucoup plus léger. A tel point que je me demande si les aimants pourront soutenir l’ajout d’un second écran sans glisser.
