Unboxing:

 

The ASUS ZenScreen OLED MQ16AH came in a thoughtfully designed packaging that can be re-purposed, made of recycled paperboard, can be ingeniously transformed into a monitor hood to reduce glare and enhance perceived colour accuracy.

Included here a report of the colour calibration test for each monitor. This is one of the reasons why this has a premium price.

 

In general, premium displays that are priced significantly higher than traditional devices, have Delta E levels of one or less and here this unit has a 0.47 colour accuracy which is very impressive.

The screen is neatly packed and carefully packed in the box, . it weighs just 650 grams and measures only 5 millimeters at its thinnest part.

Included here a short guide on the various ways we can used the Smart Case to pose the monitor at different angles including one horizontally like your phone.

Accessories:

There’s a ASUS Smart Case, which serves a dual purpose of protecting the monitor from dust and scratches while also functioning as a adjustable viewing positions.

It has a premium feel magnets inside is quite strong.

On the inside it’s a blue and has a soft texture feel to it.

On the back, there’s the integral tripod socket built-in, which adds to its versatility, allowing users to set up the monitor in various orientations. tripod not including in this package.

The package includes a Mini HDMI to HDMI cable for connection to older gen laptops or desktops.

Power adapter with different plugs for travelling needs

Power Adapter should be use if you require 100% brightness or using it as a secondary monitor for phones

 

The USB-C cable has a premium braided material same for the USB-C to A cable which is used for the power.

Here’s an angle that I won’t be using unless I’m doom scrolling social media or reading some comics

It’s actually quite sturdy from the back as you can see it folds into a large kickstand

Top view to share the support is really good and impressive

Design:

The ASUS ZenScreen OLED MQ16AH stands out with its elegant and ultra-slim design, emphasizing both portability and functionality. Crafted with a keen eye for detail, the monitor’s aluminum chassis exudes premium quality, making it ideal for daily or business use.

Here we have the 3.5mm audio jack and the USB Type-C Display/Power and a mini HDMI port on the most bottom.

On the left side is where we find the buttons for menu and 2 more USB Type-C ports which one is only for power where the other just for Display.

A quick guide on how to use the buttons on the side.

There’s also a built-in proximity sensor to save energy and to prevent burn-in on the OLED display, if enabled, this mode switches the screen to a power-saving mode and automatically changes back to normal if there’s any movement.

The black dots are the proximity sensor

The 15.6-inch FHD OLED display is encased within thin bezels, providing an immersive viewing experience while maintaining a modern and sophisticated aesthetic.

As you can see the Smart Case is quite sturdy to support the screen and as this is not a touch screen, there should be lesser movements.

 

Comparing size with my MacBook Pro that is only has a 13″ screen

It’s about the same thickness but easy to carry around for meetings just need to bring a USB-C cable around and makes collaborations much more easier.

Image Quality:

The ASUS ZenScreen OLED MQ16AH redefines portable monitor standards with its exceptional image quality. Boasting a 15.6-inch OLED display with a Full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080, this monitor delivers vivid and true-to-life colors.

With a contrast ratio of 100,000:1, the monitor excels in displaying rich details in both dark and bright scenes.

Here we test the screen by using a MacBook Pro to power the monitor and it looks beautifully.

The HDR-10 support further enhances the viewing experience by offering a wide dynamic range and vibrant colors.

Pictures don’t do justice to the quality from the screen.

 

Video Quality:

Playing videos is not an issue with this screen as it supports 60Hz refresh rates and HDR10.

Here we tried using the monitor connected to the power adaptor in order to use 100% brightness.

We also tested connecting our smartphone to the monitor and it could be a good way to share what’s on your phone with a large group of people in the same room without feeling claustrophobic.

Time to test the special hood.

Definitely makes a difference but you can also just turn off the lights if you’re in a dark room if not this is the next best thing!

I really like the slim-ness of the monitor and it fits right into my Samsonite backpack that I take to work.

Conclusion:

The ASUS ZenScreen OLED MQ16AH impresses with its 15.6-inch OLED display, vivid colors, and a rapid 1 ms response time. Weighing only 650 grams and measuring 5mm at its thinnest, it’s highly portable, complemented by ASUS’s Smart Case and despite its premium price, the MQ16AH’s blend of OLED brilliance, portability, and thoughtful features positions it as a compelling choice for professionals on the move.

In summary, the ASUS ZenScreen OLED MQ16AH is an appealing choice for those who prioritize a stunning display, portability, and versatile connectivity. However, potential buyers should consider the resolution limitations, deployment issues, and the higher price point when making their purchasing decision.
