Acer PM161QT 15.6"

80.9 Portable Score
15.6"1920 x 1080IPS60Hz
Why we recommend this

The 10-point multi-touch IPS panel and dual USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 ports with DisplayPort Alt Mode make this a uniquely interactive portable display.

This monitor is best for business travelers and educators needing a touch-enabled secondary display for presentations and collaborative work in controlled indoor lighting.
