On the left side of the base is one USB-C port for connecting to a Mac, a second one for charging, an HDMI input, and a headphone socket. The angle is infinitely adjustable, from fully upright to fully flat. The base folds down from the rear to form a stand. The finish is an attractive brushed aluminum in the same color palette as one of Apple’s many Space Gray hues. The top and side bezels are really slim, while there’s a significantly larger chin at the bottom. The BladeX has a sleek, modern look in gun-metal gray. (I do think a touchscreen Mac could be occasionally useful, but it’s not worth sacrificing resolution.) BladeX look and feel
I again opted to test the 4K version, which was again a fully functioning prototype.
The base is still a half-inch thick when folded, so you don’t really get any portability benefit, but there’s no denying the visual appeal of the far slimmer design… Instead of the entire device being a half-inch thick, the display is now less than a fifth of an inch thick. You still get both USB-C and HDMI input, though Mini DisplayPort has been dropped.īut the BladeX has a sleeker design.

The display is still 15.6 inches, and you again get a choice of a 1080p touchscreen version and a 4K model without touchscreen capability. It’s again battery-powered, for truly mobile use. It has quite a lot in common with the Gemini. The BladeX Pro 4K portable monitor is similar to the Gemini I reviewed earlier in the year, though from a different brand: Odake. Update: I have since heard of a number of backers who have not received their monitors, and would therefore not recommend purchasing.
