Prime Day ends tonight and the deals going with it include this one: a 15.6-inch 1080P IPS portable monitor with HDR, built-in speakers, a smart cover that doubles as a stand, and USB-C single-cable connection for under $60. Amazon has the KYY portable monitor at $59, off its $69 standard price, for a 1.7-pound dual-screen solution that works with any laptop, phone, PS4, Xbox, or Nintendo Switch with a USB-C or HDMI connection. This deal requires Prime membership, and it disappears when Prime Day ends tonight.

One cable, instant second screen

The KYY portable monitor connects to any laptop with Thunderbolt 3 or USB-C via a single cable that handles both video and power simultaneously, which means no power adapter, no driver installation, and no setup beyond plugging in one cable and opening the smart cover stand. The 0.3-inch slim profile at 1.7 pounds slides into a laptop bag alongside the laptop itself without adding meaningful bulk, which is the practical requirement for a portable monitor that actually gets used rather than staying on the desk because carrying it is inconvenient.

The 15.6-inch IPS panel at 1920×1080 with 178-degree viewing angle and HDR technology delivers a display that matches most laptop screens in resolution and exceeds most in viewing angle, which matters when sharing the screen with someone beside you or using the monitor in portrait orientation for document work. The matte screen handles ambient light without the reflections that glossy displays produce in office and outdoor environments, and the blue light filter with flicker-free backlight covers extended work sessions without the eye strain that standard displays cause over hours of continuous use.

Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Xbox connect via Mini HDMI for a larger gaming display anywhere there’s a flat surface, and phone connection via USB-C extends the phone screen for video watching and mobile gaming on a 15.6-inch panel. The two built-in 1W stereo speakers handle audio without headphones for casual use, and the 3.5mm audio jack covers headphone output when the situation requires it. Both landscape and portrait orientations are supported, which covers standard dual-screen laptop use and vertical document or coding workflows.

Last chance at under $60 for a dual-screen setup that fits in a bag

A dedicated portable monitor at this price point didn’t exist a few years ago. At $59 and under, the KYY sits below the cost of most USB hubs and many laptop accessories that don’t add a full second screen to any device. The smart cover with PU leather exterior and magnetic frameless design protects the screen during transport and converts to a stand at two adjustable viewing angles without any additional hardware, which means the monitor is ready to use wherever it lands without searching for a separate stand.

For remote workers, students, frequent travelers, and anyone who has wanted a second screen but didn’t want to carry a full monitor, the KYY at $59 is the purchase that costs less than an evening out and changes how every work session functions from the next day forward. The 24/7 support team covers setup questions for anyone new to portable monitors.

At $59 for a 15.6-inch IPS portable monitor with HDR, speakers, smart cover, and single-cable connection to virtually any device, this is the last Prime Day deal worth grabbing before the sale closes tonight. The price goes back to $69 when it ends. The dual-screen productivity upgrade doesn’t.
