So, I bought this for work, it is a Gechic 1303H. It is a standalone second monitor for using with a laptop, to give you a 2nd screen to work with. Unlike most, this is not a displaylink unit, it is standalone and connects through HDMI, DisplayPort and VGA with the correct cables. I also wanted to use this as a quick and simple solution for working on a headless PC at work, so I bought the VGA cable. It worked really well with HDMI on my laptop, and on a test headless PC with VGA. Really pleased with it - I thought 'Why don't I try 15khz Amiga, it will never work....will it?' It only does work, with the basic adapter available on here!! So, now we have a portable, USB powered 15Khz 13" 1920x1080 screen that will work with std Amigas resolutions and rates. I'm amazed.

This is mine - I bought the expensive one, but a much cheaper one is also available. It is a TN panel and lower resolution, but I can't see why it would not work?

I hope this is all within the rules - I have no connection with this Taiwanese company - but they make a whole range of screens, and I thought that many of us would find the idea of a portable 15Khz compatible display to be very appealing.
 
Cool, always good to find surprise 15khz screens. How about other resolutions and games?
Was your camera upside down btw?
 
Cool, but I really dislike it when the image gets squashed. Maybe there is an option to put it to 4:3 mode, but that makes a lot of the screen go to waste.

4:3 can be set in the menu according to the manual

...not for VGA mode it appears...
