Mobile Pixels: portable laptop screens and stacked monitors, priced in pounds

Shopping at Mobile Pixels? See all current Mobile Pixels discount codes and deals, checked regularly.

Mobile Pixels began in 2018 as a student start-up at MIT and Northeastern University, with one idea: a second screen that clips onto your laptop and runs off a single cable. It's now based in California and makes a whole family of portable monitors, from one extra screen beside your laptop to a screen on each side, plus stacked desktop monitors and a split keyboard with its own touchscreen.

It suits anyone who works from a laptop but misses the space of a desk setup: hybrid workers, students, people who hot-desk or travel, and anyone short on room at home. UK visitors to mobilepixels.us are sent to uk.mobilepixels.com, which shows prices in pounds. Orders ship from the US by FedEx, and checkout is handled by Global-e, so you see delivery and any import charges before you pay.

What's worth a look

Here are six of the main products, with the pound prices on the UK site today.

The Trio 3 Pro is the flagship: two 14.1-inch QHD screens slide out from behind your laptop, so you end up with three displays, and it passes through 65W charging over USB-C. If you'd rather keep things simple, the Glance is a stand-alone 16-inch 1080p screen you prop up beside the laptop. At home, the Geminos X stacks two 24-inch monitors on one stand, with a touchscreen on the bottom one and a built-in webcam, speakers and microphone.

Choosing between the clip-on models comes down to how you sit. The Duex screens attach to the back of your laptop lid and swing out to the side, which keeps everything at eye level on a train table or a small desk. The Duex Float 2 Pro stacks a 16-inch 2.5K screen above the laptop instead, so you look up rather than across, and it has a built-in kickstand. Monitors come with a two-year limited warranty, and you can add a longer protection plan when you order.
