Pros
- Extremely low price
- Decent keyboard
- Three USB ports (one 3.0) and a MicroSD card reader
- Extremely efficient hardware
- Full HD resolution and quick response times (BOE NT156FHM-N41)
Cons
- Dated design (yet somewhat stylish)
- Covers only 50% of sRGB (BOE NT156FHM-N41)
- Poor viewing angles and contrast ratio (BOE NT156FHM-N41)
- Lacks a USB Type-C port
- Uses PWM for all brightness levels, except the maximum (although the high frequency makes it far less harmful) (BOE NT156FHM-N41)
