How is the Uperfect 13.3″ monitor for laptops?

The 13.3″ Uperfect is the most compact and lightest monitor we’ve ever tested, and one of the best laptop monitor displays around. It’s just 10mm thick (about the same as a pen), weighs just 650 grams, and has super-thin bezels that make the display look amazing . It is a thin, elegant and super beautiful monitor. Both the design and the manufacturing quality have enchanted us.

It comes with a magnetic cover that not only protects the screen , but also serves as a two-position stand. It is very useful to carry it safely and use it comfortably during trips. It also supports the VESA mounting standard to hang it on a wall or other support.

It also has a small hole in the bottom left corner of the frame where you can put a pen or pencil as a monitor stand in case you don’t want to use the case. This makes it even more versatile and portable, although keep in mind that this type of support is not as firm and secure as the case.

The monitor delivers 2W stereo sound through its two built-in speakers of 1W each. You can access its menu to control the volume and other things with the wheel on the left side. Next to this wheel, it has an LED that indicates its status and a power button. And at the other end of the monitor, you’ll find all its ports: a mini HDMI, two USB-C for video, audio and power input, and a 3.5mm jack for audio output.

It should be noted that it has two USB-C ports because when you are using one to connect your mobile, the other will connect to the power adapter to provide the power that powers the monitor. And this is very interesting, since both USB-C ports support power input , so the second USB-C port can pass power to the first one to charge your devices through the monitor (at the same time you use it) .

By the way, if you connect the device using the monitor’s mini HDMI port, the USB C port must be used to supply power with the included power adapter.

It supports many uses: portable workstation, portable game console, auxiliary display and more…

This monitor is perfect to set up a workstation if your mobile is compatible , since with this screen and an external keyboard it is like a laptop to work with text documents, spreadsheets, emails, etc. Of course, consider that not all mobiles support video output via USB-C, so check compatibility.

Similarly, if you use cloud gaming services like GeForce NOW, with just your phone and the 13.3″ Uperfect you can build your own portable next-gen console . Likewise, the monitor is used quite well with native Android games with high graphic quality such as Genshin Impact or Apex Legends Mobile.

It is also very useful as an auxiliary screen on your desktop computer . In this sense, I am using a Beelink mini PC connected to the front USB-C port using this monitor to always have Outlook and Skype in view. That way, I don’t get distracted by switching apps while I’m working.

How is the image quality of the Uperfect 13.3″ monitor?

The 13.3″ Uperfect screen is IPS and offers a 2K resolution of 2560 × 1600 pixels where games, movies and series look spectacular . It has a brightness of 300 nits which is more than enough for the content on the screen to be readable even outdoors in the sun. Its aspect ratio is 16:10 (the most common today) and its 1500:1 contrast ratio is not bad at all.

It covers 100% of the sRGB color space and provides 8-bit color depth (capable of displaying more than 16 million colors), which means it reproduces colors with acceptable fidelity . On the other hand, it has a refresh rate of 60 Hz (it can display 60 images per second), which is the standard today for both using applications and playing games.

Settings and options offered by the Uperfect monitor

By the way, this screen has a matte finish to avoid reflections . And regarding its settings, we liked that the configuration menu where you can change certain parameters of the monitor is in Spanish.

In our tests, it performed as expected: no glitches, micro-cuts, or glitches, it adapted well to both horizontal and vertical use, and no dead pixels or anything like that.
