ORRO Pro 13" 2.5K Portable Monitor - 16:10, USB-C, Mini HDMI, 450 Nits

THE ORRO WAY

Optimised - Reliable - Revolutionary - Original

• Who ORRO is for: Anyone who would rather buy one thing that works properly than replace a cheap one twice. ORRO is for everyday use - chosen carefully, and made to last past the novelty.
• What is different: We name the trade-offs as plainly as the features. If a model is not right for you, we would rather you knew before you bought it than after.
• How that is possible: ORRO sources directly and sells directly. Fewer steps between the factory and your door means we can spend where it shows and keep the price fair.
• What you get: Good materials, sensible design, and something that still feels right a year in. The things you use every day should feel that little bit better.

WHAT THE PRO 13" DOES WELL

• More screen where you need it: The Pro is taller than a standard widescreen monitor - 16:10 rather than 16:9. That extra height means more rows in a spreadsheet, more lines of code, and less scrolling through documents and long web pages.
• 450 nits, the brightest in the range: Brightness is where cheap portable monitors give up. At 450 nits the Pro 13" stays readable in a bright office, a coffee shop or next to a window, which is where portable monitors are actually used.
• 2160 x 1350 across 13 inches: Sharp enough that text stays crisp at working distance, with a pixel density close to a laptop's built-in display.
• 100% sRGB, IPS: Full sRGB coverage means colour is accurate enough for design and photo work, not just spreadsheets. IPS keeps it consistent from the side.
• Full aluminium, 494g: An aluminium body rather than plastic, and the lightest monitor in the ORRO range. Thin and light enough to live in the laptop bag rather than the drawer.
• Built-in stand: The stand folds out of the back, so there is nothing separate to carry, unfold or lose.
• Antiglare, not a mirror: Glossy portable screens photograph better and work worse. The antiglare layer cuts reflections over long sessions.
• One cable, on the right laptop: USB-C carries video and power together on compatible devices. Mini HDMI is there for consoles and older machines. Both cables are in the box, along with a power cable for when your device cannot supply enough on its own.
• 10W maximum draw: The lowest power consumption of any ORRO monitor, which is what makes single-cable operation realistic on more laptops.
• Controls you can reach: A side-mounted power button and navigation wheel handle brightness, volume, input and menu. Dual speakers and a 3.5mm jack are built in.

WHAT IT DOES NOT DO

• This is a work screen, not a gaming monitor. 60Hz and 11ms are fine for documents, video and casual play, not for competitive gaming.
• There is no battery and no touch screen. The Pro 13" runs off your device over USB-C where supported, or off a separate power source using the second cable. On Mini HDMI it always needs separate power, and some laptops cannot supply enough over USB-C at full brightness. We would rather say that now than have you discover it.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT ORRO PORTABLE MONITOR

• Eco: For users who need a reliable second screen for basic productivity, study and everyday portable use.
• Home: For users who want a stronger balance of display quality, usability and daily performance.
• Pro: For users who need higher resolution, improved brightness, broader connectivity and a more refined portable display experience.

SETTING IT UP

• One cable: On a compatible laptop, a single USB-C cable carries video and power. Start with brightness low, raise it gradually, and note where the display cuts out - that is your device's power limit. Working just below it is more stable than sitting on it.
• Two cables: If the screen flickers, clicks or goes blank, your device cannot supply enough power. Connect the second cable to a plug or power bank alongside the data cable and it will be stable.
• Mini HDMI: Carries video and audio but no power, so it always needs the second cable connected to a power source.
• A note for Mac users: macOS scales built-in MacBook displays differently to external ones, so text and icons may look slightly smaller on the Pro at first. This is macOS, not the monitor. Go to System Settings > Displays, turn on "Show all resolutions", and choose a scaled option until everything sits at a comfortable size.

COMPATIBILITY

• USB-C devices: Works with devices whose USB-C port supports display output. This is what catches people out - a USB-C port that only charges will not send video, and that is a limitation of the device, not the monitor.
• Laptops: Selected macOS and Windows laptops with Thunderbolt or USB-C display output. Thunderbolt devices are fully compatible.
• Phones and tablets: Selected iOS devices running iOS 16 or later, and Android devices with USB-C display output.
• Consoles: Selected PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo consoles via the Mini HDMI input.
• Device capability: Your device also needs to be powerful enough to drive a second display. Underpowered machines will feel slow with the monitor attached.
