Hello everyone, I always read laptop. But would the device also work as a small additional monitor on a desktop PC, possibly also the version without touch?
The MINIX SF16T Touch Monitor can also be used as an additional monitor for a desktop PC, but with some restrictions:
- Touch function: the touch function of the SF16T Touch Monitor works best when it is connected via a USB-C port with DP Alt mode, which is not the case with many desktop PCs. Without a USB-C port with DP Alt mode, the touch function cannot be used. An HDMI cable or an adapter such as the H1 would enable image transmission, but not the touch function.
- Connection without touch: If you want to use the version without touch (SF16) or the SF16T without the touch function, you can connect the device to your desktop PC via the full-size HDMI port. This enables image transmission, but not the touch function.
- Additional connections: It is important to note that the device also has USB-C and USB-A ports, which can act as a HUB, but a corresponding USB-C port is required for the touch function.
So overall, it is possible to use the device as an additional monitor for a desktop PC, but the touch function will only work with a corresponding USB-C connection.
