The Arzopa G1 Is A Portable Monitor For Gaming<\/h2>\n

I recently reviewed the portable P5 monitor<\/a>, which is a 4K monitor from a company called Arzopa. Today, I have another review of one of their displays, the G1 Game.<\/p>\n

You should read the whole P5 review, but I concluded it was a great portable monitor for workers on the go that need a high resolution display.<\/p>\n

At first glance, the G1 Game seems to be targeted more towards gaming than professional video- and photo-editing, because it has a 144Hz refresh rate and a Full HD resolution.<\/p>\n

It’s capable of showing twice as many pictures per second than the P5, so it’s easy to understand why the refresh rate is more important to most gamers than picture quality.<\/p>\n

G1 Game – Specifications<\/h2>\n

Display<\/h3>\n

The 15.6″ display has a resolution of 1920 by 1080, more known as Full HD.<\/p>\n

A 1080p resolution on a 15.6″ results in a ppi (pixels per inch) of 141. That’s not bad, and the content on the display looks sharp.<\/p>\n

\"Arzopa <\/picture><\/p>\n

Besides the high 144Hz refresh rate, the display has a 300 nit peak brightness, a 1000:1 contrast ratio, and covers 100% of sRGB color space.<\/p>\n

For gaming, there is support for FreeSync which syncs the refresh rate of the display to the frames per second of what is shown on the display. This only works with compatible devices.<\/p>\n

Ports<\/h3>\n

There are four ports in total on the G1 Game: one mini HDMI, two USB C, and one 3.5mm headphone port.<\/p>\n

The mini HDMI port is what you’re going to use with devices that don’t have a USB C PD port. Arzopa includes a Mini HDMI to HDMI cable for this.<\/p>\n

\"G1 <\/picture><\/p>\n

I use the USB C PD Ports, because my MacBook supports it. With a single USB C cable, it powers and sends data to the display from my computer.<\/p>\n

If your device has a USB C port that can’t do both, you can still use the port to power the display with the included USB A\/USB C cable and wall charger.<\/p>\n

The 3.5mm headphone port is where you can plug in headphones, instead of plugging them into the PC or device directly.<\/p>\n

Menus<\/h3>\n

In the menus, you can choose from different picture modes and configure the picture to your liking. Control brightness, contrast, black levels, DCR, sharpness, input, color temperature, HDR, FreeSync, volume, etc.<\/p>\n

Other Features<\/h3>\n

Underneath the monitor, there are two tiny speakers. These are good enough for watching videos and listening to podcasts, but I don’t recommend using them for listening to music.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, there are no VESA mounting holes on the monitor.<\/p>\n

Case<\/h3>\n

The included smart cover works both as a case and a stand. It connects to the display with magnets and is easy to unfold and set up.<\/p>\n
