TL;DR: Take an extra $20 off this Mobile Pixels portable laptop monitor<\/a> with code DISPLAY20 at checkout.<\/p>\n

Work can feel like a nightmare when your only tool is a laptop. Switching between tabs, watching meetings, or trying to multitask on a tiny screen gets old fast \u2014 and that\u2019s probably why so many people are grabbing this second screen for laptops<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Some get a second monitor for the office, but why not get one for hybrid or remote work? The Duex Plus adds 13.3 inches of screen space to your laptop with magnetic attachment, plug-and-play setup, and a lightweight design \u2014 adding no burden to your workdays. Order one for $179.99 with code DISPLAY20 at checkout (reg. $199.99).<\/p>\n

Once you try this, you\u2019ll never go back to a single screen<\/h2>\n

Setting up your mobile workstation is simple, whether you\u2019re at your desk, on the couch, or at the coffee shop. Use USB-C or HDMI (cables and adapters are included) ports to connect your PC or Mac and get to work.<\/p>\n

You can also adjust the screen to a comfortable working angle by bending the hinge to your liking. If you get a kickstand, you can even use the portable monitor<\/a> vertically for web development, editing, or writing.<\/p>\n

Create a dual-screen laptop setup<\/a> with the Mobile Pixels Duex Plus, now $179.99 with code DISPLAY20 at checkout (reg. $199.99) until March 30 at 11:59 p.m. PT.<\/p>\n
