Overview

The ASUS ZenScreen MB16FC is a slim and portable 16-inch monitor designed to give laptops and other compatible devices a larger, more flexible workspace. With a WUXGA 1920 x 1200 IPS display and a 16:10 aspect ratio, it provides extra vertical screen space that is particularly useful for documents, spreadsheets, email, coding and multitasking. Its compact design makes it easy to carry between the office, home, client meetings and other work locations.

At just 1.1 cm thin, the ZenScreen MB16FC is designed for mobile productivity without taking up much space in a laptop bag. USB Type-C connectivity allows compatible devices to send video and power through a single cable, while the Mini HDMI connection provides another option for connecting laptops, consoles and other source devices.

Description

The ASUS ZenScreen MB16FC Portable Monitor combines a large 16-inch viewing area with a lightweight, travel-friendly design. Its IPS panel delivers a 1920 x 1200 resolution, 178 degree viewing angles and up to 75Hz refresh rate, making it suitable for everyday office work, entertainment and multitasking.

The 16:10 display gives you more vertical workspace than a conventional 16:9 screen. This means less scrolling when working with long documents, web pages and spreadsheets. With 300 nits typical brightness, a 1000:1 contrast ratio and 16.7 million display colours, the screen provides a clear and detailed image for a wide range of applications.

For convenient connectivity, the MB16FC has two full-function USB Type-C ports with DisplayPort Alt Mode support. A compatible laptop can connect using a single USB Type-C cable for both video and power. The monitor also supports up to 65W Power Pass-Through, allowing a connected USB Type-C power source to supply power to the monitor while also charging a compatible laptop.

The built-in kickstand makes it simple to position the display, while the 1/4-inch tripod socket provides additional mounting flexibility when required. ASUS DisplayWidget Center also supports automatic screen rotation, allowing the display to switch between landscape and portrait orientations.

Features

Portable 16-Inch Display for Work Anywhere
The ZenScreen MB16FC is suited to hybrid working, mobile offices and anyone who needs a second display without carrying a conventional desktop monitor. Its compact footprint and slim profile make it practical for use at a desk, in a meeting room, at a client site or while travelling.

The 16-inch IPS panel provides a generous working area while maintaining the portability expected from a USB-C portable monitor. The anti-glare surface helps reduce distracting reflections, while the wide 178 degree horizontal and vertical viewing angles make the screen easy to view from different positions.

More Vertical Workspace with a 16:10 Screen
The 1920 x 1200 WUXGA resolution gives the ASUS ZenScreen MB16FC a taller display area than a typical 1920 x 1080 Full HD monitor. Its 16:10 aspect ratio provides approximately 11% more vertical screen space than a 16:9 display of the same width, which can make a noticeable difference when working with documents, spreadsheets and web-based applications.

Key display details include:

• 16-inch IPS panel with 1920 x 1200 WUXGA resolution
• 16:10 aspect ratio for additional vertical workspace
• 300 nits typical brightness
• 1000:1 typical contrast ratio
• 16.7 million display colours
• 5ms GTG response time
• Up to 75Hz refresh rate
• 178 degree horizontal and vertical viewing angles
• Anti-glare display surface

USB Type-C Connectivity and 65W Power Pass-Through
Two USB Type-C ports support DisplayPort Alt Mode, providing a convenient way to connect the portable monitor to compatible laptops and other devices. With a compatible setup, a single USB Type-C cable can carry the display signal and provide power to the monitor.

Power Pass-Through adds another level of convenience. When the monitor is connected to a USB Type-C power bank or AC adapter, it can pass through up to 65W of power to a compatible laptop. This helps reduce cable clutter when creating a mobile dual-screen workstation.

A Mini HDMI port is also included for devices that do not provide USB Type-C DisplayPort Alt Mode.

Comfortable Viewing for Extended Work
The MB16FC is designed for long periods of screen use with ASUS and TUV Rheinland-certified Flicker-Free and Low Blue Light technologies. These functions can help provide a more comfortable viewing experience during extended work sessions.

ASUS SPLENDID technology provides colour adjustment options, while DisplayWidget Center adds convenient controls for supported display functions. Auto Rotation can automatically change the screen orientation when switching between landscape and portrait use.

Flexible Positioning for a Mobile Workspace
The integrated kickstand allows the screen to be positioned for comfortable viewing without requiring a separate stand. A built-in 1/4-inch tripod socket provides an additional mounting option for users who need more flexibility when positioning the monitor.

The Kensington Lock slot also provides a physical security option for suitable office and shared working environments.

ASUS ZenScreen MB16FC Connectivity
The portable monitor provides a practical selection of ports for modern laptops and other source devices:

• 2 x USB Type-C with DisplayPort Alt Mode
• 1 x Mini HDMI
• 1 x 3.5mm earphone jack
• Kensington Lock slot
• 1/4-inch tripod socket

The monitor does not include built-in speakers, so audio can be connected through the earphone jack when required.
