SideTrak Swivel Portable Monitor for Laptops REVIEW | MacSources

A great option for portable workstations.

I’ve been using a laptop as my primary computer now for at least 10 years. And, I usually have that laptop connected to an external monitor so that I have a large workspace to work from. That doesn’t work when you need to work remotely away from your desk. Fortunately, there is a unique accessory called the SideTrak that gives laptop users a second screen when they need it.

DETAILS

The SideTrak Swivel Monitor gives users the opportunity to instantly double the size of their laptop screen real estate.

The screen is compatible with all laptop sizes and operating systems. The screen will rotate 270º and swivels 360º. You can use it attached, freestanding, or in portrait mode.
