Double your productivity with this second screen
EBPMAN Tech Reviews
Product Description
The only portable monitor that can click, swivel, and go.
Designed with a patented 360° swivel hinge, this innovative second screen features game-changing new attachable monitor technology to instantly double your laptop screen space. The Full HD portable monitor magnetically clicks onto a hidden metal plate on the back of your laptop to combine the productivity of working on two screens with the portability of a laptop.
Minimalist, magnetic attachment.
Adhere the device-safe magnetic plate to the back of your laptop. Once added, simply click the Swivel onto the plate. The extra-strength magnet keeps your portable monitor secure while allowing you to remove and re-attach it with ease. If you’d prefer not to adhere the metal plate directly to your laptop, you can adhere it to a laptop case instead.
Work from anywhere
The ultimate portable workstation, SideTrak Swivel attaches securely to any laptop with a hidden magnetic plate and folds away when not in use.
Customize your screen angle
The only full-swivel attachable monitor on the market, the Swivel’s unique design allows for seamless screen sharing and comfortable viewing.
Experience versatile viewing
Swivel, rotate, or remove the screen for the perfect flexible setup. The optional integrated kickstand allows for easy freestanding functionality.
Maximize your productivity
Instantly double your screen real estate with this revolutionary Full HD screen and experience increased efficiency wherever your workday takes you.
Patented 360° swivel hinge
SideTrak Swivel adjusts to your ideal viewing angle with an exclusive 360° screen swivel and 270° screen rotation. And the best part? The unique hinge design allows the monitor to stay attached to your laptop without the need for any desktop or table space, so you can work while on the go, on the couch, or outdoors.

Furthermore, the quality of the image dull and opaque, doesn't give you that nice, clear and bright crisp look an LCD HD image should. When I got it, it had like a white spot on the image too, like if it had already been touched or used and left the damage inside the screen, or maybe factory defect but it didn't bother me too much.
After using for 3 months, all of a sudden in that same white spot the image inside broke (not the screen physically).. For the $300 plus dollars, this should be like a $50 - $100 range. Pretty disappointed with the quality overall and it breaking down 3 months later I would not recommend this product.

I really can, and still do, see the benefits of having this additional screen. The few times I did use it really made an interesting difference in working. However, the few times I did use it showed me that the difference it made was not substantial enough to keep… nor did it add THAT much convenience.
I did love this look more than the others that take up the entire back of your laptop.
Screen:
Nice LED Screen, but was a yellowish hue darker than my ThinkPad. Not that big of a deal but there is an obvious distinction I could not let go of. Also, I didn’t have it open all the time, so the hassle of taking it on and off - let alone keeping up with it - was cumbersome. The magnet is strong, and I’m tinder-handed with certain electronics, so swiveling and moving it around was not an issue.
Connection:
There was always a bit of a lag when attempting to move a file or window over to the Sidetrak. As in, I had to drag/force it over to the external screen because it would not smoothly slide over. Sometimes it would glitch which was worrisome. I could not figure out how to make the text bigger on the Sikdetrak either. I work in law, so having to move in close every other minute just to read something seemed unnecessary. The cord is rather cheap too.
Weight:
I positioned mine to align with the top of the laptop. My ThinkPad isn’t that heavy (14in I believe, bigger than the 12.5 here), so if it wasn’t sitting up in an exact position (especially when on my lap or mount), then it would dramatically pull my screen backwards in a scary fashion. I feared that if it fell while I wasn’t around, then it would snap my laptop in-half. So I never left it alone. Also, I walk around with my laptop a lot, I couldn’t do that with this. The weight is so one sided that I almost dropped the entire setup a few times when first using it.
Travel:
I left it on my laptop, and it packed away into my backpack with no issues. Doesn’t take up much space at all.
Cool overall, but just not functional for me. I definitely say try it for yourself buuut don’t wait too long to return it. If you’re not using it EVERYDAY, for even a portion of the day, I don’t think it’s worth it.
Pros: VERY portable
Easy to setup
Adjustable (can move to left or right side)
Efficient
Cost effective (if you buy used. I got mine for $240 and it did not have any damage at all, everything included in package except mounting guide.
Cons: A bit pricy for a portable monitor but you’re definitely paying for the technology and portability aspect
It’s a bit heavy and strains my laptop hinge, not sure of long term repercussions, however I’m sure it’ll be fine
If you have to plug in both cables, there’s wires everywhere
Display isn’t as crystal clear as the laptops monitor, not horrible quality but definitely noticeably less than my laptops (however it’s a portable monitor so it’s okay)
Screen isn’t as bright as I would have hoped for but it’s not bad
OVERALL: I love it and I couldn’t imagine NOT having a portable second monitor like this with my laptops now.
I honestly wish I would have had this in my life sooner! 5/5. When setting up PLEASE make sure you have it on perfectly, like a prior review says you’ll have to tilt it a little bit to make sure it’s perfectly aligned.
If you’re on the fence on the price point like I was, if there are any used ones buy it! Essentially the same as new and almost 30% cheaper or so. I have absolutely no regrets and am a happy customer.
I look forward to see if this company will create a newer version in the future, as I am going to get it.
