Review: ViewSonic TD1655 Portable Touch Monitor

By Canadian Reviewer Staff

Now that most of us have to work remotely, the challenge s having to replicate our office setups in our more cramped home offices, which we are likely sharing with our partners and our kids. For most users, a laptop is the ideal device for working from home, but while easy to carry around and eminently portable, screen real-state is limited for having multiple apps and browser windows open. External monitors are a good option, but they’re big and bulky. 

ViewSonic’s USB-C touch TD1655 portable monitor is 15.6-inch touch-enabled portable monitor that brings all the latest technologies like USB-C connectivity, ten-point multi touch and pen input capability, as well as a borderless design.  Super thin and light at 0.6” and weighing less than two pounds. This monitor is thin enough to pack in your backpack or laptop bag, and can be used in various modes.

Microsoft unveils 12.4-inch Surface Laptop Go and updated Surface Pro X

You know who has been releasing hardware at breakneck pace? Microsoft! The Redmond Giant's just come off launching its latest XBox Series X and XBox Series S next-gen consoles, the innovative and intriguing Surface Duo, and the Surface Hub 2S, and today it releases the smallest Surface Laptop as well as an updated ARM-powered Surface Pro X.

The Surface Go Laptop is the first ultraportable Surface Laptop and now joins the Laptop 13 and Laptop 15 models. "Starting at US $549.99, Surface Laptop Go delivers the perfect balance of style, performance and battery life in the lightest, most affordable Surface laptop yet. It has a beautiful 12.4-inch PixelSense touchscreen display, large precision trackpad and a full-size keyboard with 1.3mm key travel for an accurate and comfortable typing experience," Microsoft said in its blog.

Built for remote work and school,  Surface Laptop Go has a built-in 720p HD camera and Studio Mics so your colleagues and classmates can see and hear you clearly. Omnisonic Speakers and Dolby Audio surround you with amazing sound – whether on a video call, watching a movie, listening to music and more. To help you connect, there are both USB A and USB C ports, an audio jack and the Surface connector. The starting specs are rather meagre in this laptop with 4GB of RAM and 6$ GB of storage, it also comes with Windows 10 S Mode, which only uses Microsoft Store apps. This is clearly aimed at Chromebook users, students, and the educational market. Of course, there are higher-priced tiers with more respectable specs including a 16GB version available to commercial and educational buyers.
