Latest Series of Portables Expands the Company’s Award-Winning Line-Up

ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of visual and edtech solutions, announces the launch of new portable monitors that will join the line-up of award-winning portable displays. This latest slate of portable monitors range in features from 2K resolution, touchscreen capabilities, a color-calibrated and Pantone-validated panel, and a model with a built-in battery and wireless casting for wireless functionality. Perfect for extending your workspace or enhancing entertainment, these versatile monitors deliver a satisfying front-of-screen experience.

The VG1656N, VG1656-2K, TD1656-2K, and VP1656 portable monitors are 16-inch monitors with native resolutions ranging from WUXGA (1920x1200) to WQXGA (2560x1600). All four new portables have a native aspect ratio of 16:10. The 16:10 aspect ratio offers multitaskers extra vertical space to work more efficiently. This design also complements the latest 16:10 laptops for a more streamlined viewing experience. These monitors come with features to fit just about any lifestyle and environment, whether at home, work or on-the-road.

“ViewSonic continues to add more options and features to our portable monitor family,” said Jeff Muto, business line director at ViewSonic. “Consumer feedback on our previous and current lines have been amazing; however, we wanted to ensure that there was more choice whether it’s size or features. This way, users can have a perfect portable monitor that fits their lifestyle, whether it’s productivity or entertainment.”
