Amazon is offering an excellent deal on this Arzopa 15″ 1080p USB Type-C portable monitor. It’s normally $129.99, but right now you can get it for only $59.98 shipped. That’s the best price we’ve ever seen for this particular model, and a much lower price compared to 15″ USB Type-C monitors from major brands like LG or Samsung. This is a great portable display for your Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, or Asus ROG Ally gaming handheld.
Arzopa S1 15″ 1080p USB-C Portable Monitor for $59.98
This 15″ 1080p monitor works as a secondary display for your laptop, tablet, phone, gaming console, or pretty much any device that has either a USB or HDMI output. The S1 has one HDMI and two USB Type-C ports. If your device has a USB Type-C output with Power Delivery, than you only need a single USB Type-C cable for both power and data. Otherwise, you’ll need to use two ports: one for data (USB Type-C or HDMI) and one for power (USB Type-C). The S1 comes with one USB Type-C cable and one USB Type A to Type C cable, but you’ll need to supply your own wall charger.
The monitor is designed to be portable. It weighs only 1.3 pounds and measures 0.3″ thin. It sports a sturdy metal frame and includes a smart cover that doubles as a stand. The 15″ display features a 1080p resolution with 60Hz refresh rate, an IPS panel with great viewing angles, and an anti-glare matte surface. It even has built in speakers. It’s definitely worth the price if you want an inexpensive second screen to boost your productivity without weighing you down.
An Excellent Portable Monitor for Your Nintendo Switch or Steam Deck
This monitor works quite well with both the Steam Deck or Switch consoles. I’d recommend using the wall charger to power the monitor, otherwise you’ll be draining the gaming system pretty quickly (you can use the one provided with your Steam Deck or Switch console). The 1080p and 60Hz specs on the monitor is more than good enough for the Switch since it doesn’t support anything higher. The Steam Deck can support high resolutions and refresh rate, but at that point you’re really taxing your system, and 1080p/60Hz is an ideal balance between visual fidelity and playability.
Upgrade to the Arzopa Z1FC 16″ 144Hz Monitor for $119.99

The higher end Arzopa Z1FC is also on sale at Amazon. The Z1FC’s upgrades include a larger display (16.1″ vs 15.6″), a higher refresh rate (144Hz vs 60Hz), and 100% sRGB color gamut, and a metal chassis. The larger display and better color reproduction makes it a nice upgrade for Switch and Steam Deck gamers. However, because the Z1 uses a bit more power than the S1, you’ll need to keep the Z1 plugged into a wall charger since neither gaming system can power the monitor by itself. This monitor is a perfect complement for PC and laptop gamers who will be able to take advantage of the 144Hz refresh rate. I have this monitor and can confirm that the image quality is great.
