Questions about ASUS ZenScreen MB166C

oh yes that's right, I didn't even notice, I also have W11 and it doesn't work for me either, I have to read in again ah see an answer from koenig andrew, I think I'll try it out--> you have to set the monitor as portrait format in the settings

I have a Thinkpad X1 Carbon, gen 11, running Ubuntu. It works out of the box; shows up in xrandr as DP-3 (a DisplayPort screen). It's probably a function of the GPU (the X1 has Intel Integrated graphics).

Here you need an HDMI to USB-C adapter with an additional power delivery port that can supply the monitor with power. You will need something along these lines HDMI to USB Type C converter. Make sure you have a suitable USB-A power supply to power the monitor and a USB-C to USB-C cable that supports video signals.

I bought several cables, unfortunately none of them worked. It seems that it only works with the original cable, which I found very disappointing. Above all, they could have at least supplied an angled plug.

I used the USB C cable that came with it, which also supplies the power when I connected it to the laptop, but I later replaced it with a shorter cable that I still had and that also worked. Without this, the screen has no power and does not run, so there is no battery installed as I see it. If it doesn't work with the cable, maybe it's the port on the PC or notebook. I think there are always adapters, I would google them, as I don't need one myself, I haven't looked for one.

It sounds wrong. There is one DisplayPort-over-USB-C port and that's all. It appears on USB as a RealTek RTS5411 Hub, but that's simply what enables DisplayPort. There's no HDMI connector. Works great though.

The ASUS ZenScreen MB166C can be compatible with a Mac, but there are some conditions that must be met: - The Mac must have a USB-C port that supports DisplayPort (DP) output. You need to check if your Mac's USB-C port has this function. - It is important to use the correct cable. A standard USB-C charging cable is often not sufficient as it does not support high data rates. A USB-C cable with USB 3.1 SuperSpeed or higher is required. - Make sure the monitor is properly connected and powered. Sometimes it can help to restart the Mac or wake it from sleep mode to establish the connection. If these conditions are met, the ASUS ZenScreen MB166C should work fine with your Mac (Sequoia 15.1).

The ASUS ZenScreen MB166C monitor is compatible with the PlayStation 5 (PS5), but with certain limitations. Here are the key points: - The PS5 cannot transmit video signal via USB-C in DisplayPort mode, so you need to use an HDMI cable for the video connection. - You can connect the monitor to the PS5 using the HDMI cable for video and a USB-C or USB-A cable for power and charging the monitor. So, although the monitor works with the PS5, it requires the use of an HDMI cable for video.

It doesn't work directly. It will surly work with Lindy HDMI to USB Type C Converter (HDMI, USB-C, 1.91 cm) tho. It delivers the power over usb + hdmi port for the picture.

The ASUS ZenScreen MB166C is generally compatible with a Surface Book 2 and Windows 11, provided that the USB-C port of the Surface Book 2 supports DisplayPort Alternative Mode (DP Alt Mode). There are a few important points to note here: 1. USB-C port: make sure the USB-C port on your Surface Book 2 supports DP Alt Mode, as the ZenScreen MB166C has a USB-C port for both power and video transfer. 2. software and settings: Check that the display settings on your Surface Book 2 are configured correctly. This may mean checking the video input settings on the external display and making sure it is set to the correct port. 3. drivers and software: Make sure that all necessary drivers and software are updated on your Surface Book 2 to ensure a smooth connection. If you follow these points, the ASUS ZenScreen MB166C should work smoothly with your Surface Book 2 and Windows 11.

The usb-c port should support both power delivery and display over usb-c (ALT-mode) Regards GK

I'm sorry, I don't know.

I don't know, I use a usb-c with a windows laptop. Very good for that

It gets powered via the battery of the connected pc/notebook. Have never tried any other usage other than connected to notebook.

Unfortunately, we are currently unable to obtain the desired item. In principle, there is a 1/4" threaded hole here, which should enable mounting on a standard 1/4" tripod, provided the load capacity is sufficient.

According to our information, it is compatible with the MacBook Pro from 2022.
