Since the USB-C plug standard came into play, and we were able to plug in monitors, the portable monitor business has been booming. One of the companies that has been creating lightweight monitors is KYY. I have checked out their KYY 1080p portable monitor, the KYY portable with VESA mount, and now the KYY 90A -a portable dual monitor offering.

The KYY 90A Dual Monitor
This is 2-14 inch monitors that fold out and set behind a laptop, Android phone or tablet. The 14 inch monitors are full 1080p/60 fps, and can be run with the computer as the same monitor (for a presentation), or completely separate monitors (to get more screen space).
Different ways to Use the Monitor
You can run it for yourself, but you can also turn the monitor 90 degrees and use it in portrait mode. If you fold it into a triangle and set the monitor to mirror, people can see your screen around a table.
Running the Driver
In order for the dual monitor to work, you will need to install the Silicon Motion driver (included in box). The best part about this independent driver is it will allow you to use the USB-A port on Windows.
I did find that if I used the driver from the Silicon Motion website on Windows, it broke the connection.
Pros and Cons
* iOS and iPadOS is not supported at this time. This could change in the future, but only Windows, Mac, and Android drivers are available.
* I love the tent modes, but it would have been nice if I could’ve rotated one of the monitors so I could see either 2 monitors on one side, or two portrait monitors.
* The stand works well, but on the same token for portrait mode, there is no way to prop up the stand to raise the monitor.
* VESA mount option would have also been nice.
* No HDMI option to the monitor – If I wanted to run HDMI out from a computer or gaming console, I won’t be able to do that here.
* On the same token, the dual monitors work with only one device. The bottom USB-C is for power only.
* If you don’t fan out the monitors enough, the unit will be top-heavy and fall forward.
Overall, the dual monitor system is great for when you need to extend your screen. It connects up quick when you dock it with no flicker while you work. The KYY 90A is not going to be high-resolution monitors (for things like color-grading), but you’ll be able to put other windows within screen – Spreadsheets, web pages, email portals, etc.
Price and Availability
The KYY 90A is $429.99. You can get the KYY 90A here
