FAQs

1. How do laptop screen extenders work?

They connect to your laptop via USB-C or HDMI and function as an external display. You can mirror your main screen or use it as an extended workspace to boost productivity.

2. What’s the difference between a portable monitor and a screen extender?

A portable monitor typically sits beside your laptop, while a screen extender like the Cevaton N2 can be mounted above the laptop using a magnetic bracket, saving space and improving ergonomics.

3. How do I connect a screen extender to my laptop?

Most screen extenders, including N2 and P4, support full-featured USB-C or Mini HDMI. Just plug in—no driver needed—and your laptop should auto-detect the display.

4. Can I use extended display mode with these products?

Yes. Both N2 and P4 support mirror and extended modes. Use your system's display settings (e.g., Win+P on Windows) to configure how the screen behaves.

5. Are laptop screen extenders worth it?

Absolutely—if you multitask, edit, game, or travel frequently. Extenders like N2 and P4 improve efficiency, reduce tab-switching fatigue, and offer immersive full-screen visibility.

6. Do portable screen extenders need external power?

Not always. N2 and P4 can be powered directly via USB-C. For longer sessions, connecting a PD power source ensures stable performance and charges your laptop simultaneously.

7. How do I mount or position the screen extender?

N2 uses a magnetic rotating stand with height adjustment for top-mount use. P4 comes with a folding PU leather case that doubles as a stand with two angle options.

8. What should I check before buying a screen extender?

Ensure your device has a USB-C port with DisplayPort (DP Alt Mode), or an HDMI output. Also, check resolution (1080P or 1200P), brightness, weight, and travel readiness.

9. Can I use a screen extender with my smartphone or gaming console?

Yes. Both models support Android phones with DeX/EMUI, iPhone 15, Nintendo Switch, PS5, and more via HDMI or USB-C connections.

10. How long do portable screen extenders last?

With durable materials like PC+ABS (N2) or aluminum alloy + PU leather (P4), these monitors are built for daily use and travel. Lifespan typically exceeds 3–5 years with proper care.
