The A17 is a high-resolution portable monitor that might significantly boost productivity, especially when traveling. It can be hooked up with just one cable via USB Type-C, but the A17 is probably not suitable for everyone’s use case.

Monitor

The Uperfect UColor A17 has been available for quite some time and is currently listed at Geekbuying for about €265. It ships from a warehouse in the EU, so no import duties should apply for buyers located there. That said, enforcing warranty claims may prove difficult, as buyers will have to depend on the seller’s goodwill.

Mobile 4K monitor

With that out of the way, this is a portable 15-inch monitor with a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels. That should result in a very sharp image quality. The UColor A17 could serve as a second screen for a laptop on a business trip, which can potentially boost productivity. The panel further offers a 60Hz refresh rate, which has been the standard for many years. However, some portable monitors come with a faster panel.

Built-in speakers but no battery

This monitor is based on an IPS panel and sports a contrast ratio of 1000:1, brightness of 300 nits and full sRGB color space coverage. Additionally, it has two integrated speakers but lacks a battery, which means that the UColor A17 draws up to 12 watts from the laptop’s battery. On the plus side, it can be hooked up via USB Type-C with just a single cable, but if you use Mini DisplayPort or HDMI you’ll still need a dedicated USB cable for power. A USB Type-A port is also onboard and can be used to connect a keyboard or other accessories. Last but not least, the 4K monitor weighs around 1.4 lbs or 640 grams.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

My fascination for technology goes back a long way to the Pentium II era. Modding, overclocking and treasuring computer hardware has since become an integral part of my life. As a student, I further developed a keen interest in mobile technologies that can make the stressful college life so much easier. After I fell in love with the creation of digital content while working in a marketing position, I now scour the web to bring you the most exciting topics in the world of tech. Outside the office, I’m particularly passionate about motorsports and mountain biking.
