The FlipGo is yet another entry into the portable dual-monitor field from JSAUX (the previous one being the more ambitious FlipGo Horizon Pro), and it definitely makes a good first impression. Not only do you get two 16-inch 2560 x 1600 IPS displays, but the FlipGo also supports touch input (on Windows systems). In addition, it incorporates a built-in USB hub that gives you two additional USB-A ports and one USB-C port for your peripherals.
JSAUX provides all of this functionality in a product that comes in at a bit under $500, which is in line with other portable dual-monitors on the market. However, there’s a hefty toll for the functionality that’s provided in this package for those expecting to actually use it as a travel companion.
When I first received the shipping box for the FlipGo, I was shocked at how large and heavy it was. My shock was made even more apparent when I removed the FlipGo from its protective padding, revealing a massive dual-screen device weighing an incredible 4.18 pounds. That’s more than half a pound heavier than a 14-inch Apple MacBook Pro.
The choice of materials contributes to the 4+ pound weight of the FlipGo. JSAUX uses a thick aluminum chassis that resists flexing and feels incredibly premium to the touch. That premium feel even extends to the hinges that connect the two displays. They are robust, with no play, allowing you to easily open the FlipGo to whatever display angle you desire.
While JSAUX labels the FlipGo as a “portable” monitor, this is not something that you’ll be able to easily slip into a laptop bag or even a backpack.
