MScreen ultra-wide portable screen with 32:9 aspect ratio is crowdfunding on Kickstarter
The MScreen, an ultra-wide portable screen, is currently crowdfunding on Kickstarter. The campaign has already raised over US$110,000 from around 550 backers. The company suggests that you could use the device for an additional screen on your desk or when gaming.
The gadget has a 32:9 aspect ratio and a 1920 x 770 HD resolution, plus you can use it in landscape or portrait modes. The display is fully laminated with a SuperClear IPS panel to ensure the colors are accurate from all angles. The screen supports 100% sRGB and is housed in a durable aluminum enclosure. MScreen suggests that you could use the compact device as an alternative to sticky notes or a diary on your desk for a tidier look.
You can also set up the MScreen adjacent to your standard monitor to increase your screen size. The company also that the 32:9 aspect ratio will provide an advantage for gamers, given the broader visual range. You can connect to the device via HDMI and USB ports, and a range of connectors come with the gadget.
You can currently receive the 8.8-in MScreen Mini when you pledge HK$746 (~US$95) to the Kickstarter campaign; the gadget will eventually retail for US$127. A 14.1-in standard version of the device costs HK$1,836 (~US234). The gadget comes with micro USB and mini-HDMI to HDMI cables and is expected to be delivered in October.
