Question 1

Can you use a portable external monitor for a laptop?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can use an external monitor for your laptop. However, it is good to note that newer laptops lack ports, which means you will most likely need a USB hub or adapters. Some portable external monitors that are made specifically for laptops and tablets come with all the cables you need to use them.

Question 2

Can you use a tablet as an external monitor?

Accepted Answer

Some tablets can be used as an extension screen for some computers. But that is not always the case. Some options will only work if it is the same brand or if the operating systems are compatible. 

It is still better to use an external monitor if you want an extra screen for your work and productivity.

Question 3

Can you use two or more external monitors?

Accepted Answer

Yes, some computers will allow you to connect two or more monitors. However, some laptops will only have room for one external monitor. If you use more displays on a laptop, all it will do is work as a mirror and not as a second extra monitor.
