The smarter setup
Laptop screen extender vs portable monitor vs desk monitor
Desk monitors don't travel. Single portable monitors give you one extra screen and nowhere to put it. VueXtend gives you two, set up around the laptop you already own.

|---|---|---|---|
| Extra screens | 2 (3 with Quad) | 1 | 1 |
| Two screens either side of your laptopOne fold-out frame, one cable | Yes | No | No |
| Single-cable setup | Yes | Yes | No |
| Set-up time | 60 seconds | 2–5 minutes | Desk install |
| Fits in a laptop bag | Yes | Yes | No |
| Swivel to share with clients | Yes | No | No |

“Like having my office in my backpack”
I'm at client sites three days a week. VueXtend is set up before my coffee arrives, and I finally have room for my CRM, email and call notes at the same time.

“Our whole sales team uses them”
We bought twelve for our hybrid team. No more fighting over hot desks with monitors, and the VAT invoice kept finance happy. Best kit spend we made this year.

“Worth it for spreadsheets alone”
Model on the left, data on the right, calls in the middle. My MacBook Pro picked it up straight away and it folds away in seconds at the end of the day.

FAQ
Laptop screen extender FAQs
Everything you need to know before you order.
Still not sure?
Tell us your laptop model and we'll recommend the right VueXtend. Our UK team replies within one working day.
Ask our teamCheck laptop compatibilityWill VueXtend fit my laptop?
Almost certainly. The Air 14 fits 12″ to 16.5″ laptops, the Pro 15.6 fits 15″ to 17.3″ and the Max 18.5 fits 12″ to 18.5″. VueXtend stands on its own built-in kickstand, so nothing clips, clamps or sticks to your laptop.
Does it work with my MacBook?
Yes. VueXtend works with macOS (Apple silicon M1 to M4 and Intel) and Windows, plus Linux and ChromeOS on the Air 14. Some MacBooks with base M-series chips only support one external display natively, so to run both screens you simply install the free driver included in the box. It takes about two minutes.
Not sure about your model? Use our compatibility checker or read our MacBook screen extender guide.
Will the weight strain my laptop's hinge?
No. VueXtend stands on its own built-in kickstand, so nothing clips, clamps or sticks to your laptop. No weight sits on your laptop or its hinge, and you can tilt your laptop screen just as you normally would.
Do I need a separate power supply?
Usually not. On most USB-C laptops one cable carries both video and power. If your laptop's USB-C port can't supply enough power, or you want maximum brightness, plug in the included power cable.
How quickly will it arrive?
Orders placed before 2pm on a working day are dispatched the same day. UK delivery is free and usually takes 1 to 3 working days, with tracking on every order.
What if it's not right for me?
Try it for 30 days. If you're not completely happy, send it back for a full refund. Every VueXtend is also covered by a 12-month warranty.
Do you offer business pricing and VAT invoices?
Yes. Every order comes with a VAT invoice, and we offer volume pricing from 5 units. Contact our business team for a quote within one working day.
