Advanced technologies allow nearly every type of device to be made lighter, thinner, and portable. Monitors are no exception, with ultra-thin battery-powered versions now on the market. Offering superb clarity and flexibility, an OLED portable monitor can help remote workers become truly location independent. Ricoh’s latest portable monitors prove that point abundantly — keep reading to learn more.
Key Features
Ricoh recently introduced its 150 series portable monitors, available in both wired and wireless versions. Incorporating a 15.6-inch display, both models run on OLED technology. OLED uses organic molecules with light-emitting diodes, illuminating when an electrical current is applied. These displays are lightweight and flexible, plus they’re more capable of handling faster-motion graphics and brighter colors. Ricoh’s 150 monitors come with other great advantages:
- Two USB-C connection ports
- 10-point touchscreen support
- Connects to Mac, iOS, Android, and Windows devices
- One-millisecond response time
Ricoh’s 150 series monitors charge through their USB-C ports. When fully charged, the 150’s battery delivers about three hours of power. This affords you the versatility of quick on-the-go usage. Need to add a couple of details to a document or compose a short email? The 150’s got you covered.
Benefits of Portable Monitors
Both the 150 and 150BW weigh under two pounds and measure 0.19 inches at their thinnest points. The 150 connects to your device via USB, while the 150BW is the wireless edition. The 150BW can accept visual input from two devices simultaneously, and you can wirelessly multicast to as many as five 150BW monitors.
Besides top-tier graphics quality and responsiveness, portable monitors also let you conveniently expand your on-screen real estate. By adding a second monitor, you have more room to place project windows and avoid visual clutter. When you eliminate the need to constantly minimize and switch between windows, you also reduce time and effort while working.
Ricoh’s 150 standard and 150BW models connect quickly and are ready to use in seconds. A flexible ergonomic kickstand offers fast and convenient setup while putting your monitor within easy reach. Besides the 150’s touchscreen capability, an optional Ricoh Type 1 Stylus Pen gives you even finer input control.
More Productivity Solutions
When considering how to equip your remote workspace, you’ll want to look beyond portable monitors. As you handle paper and electronic materials, the need for a scanner becomes clear. You may find that your all-in-one machine doesn’t travel well or that it doesn’t deliver the image clarity you need or learning how to scan a document is a complicated affair.
Ricoh offers scanners in an extensive range of sizes, capacities, and speeds. Models such as the Ricoh fi-8170 easily support multiple users, while the brand’s ScanSnap scanners are perfect for small offices and single-user environments. Portable scanners such as the ScanSnap iX100 integrate battery power and wireless connectivity, providing you with go-everywhere document imaging solutions.
Power and Performance on the Go
Portable monitors like the Ricoh 150 and 150BW provide you with the capability to work from anywhere. Thin and lightweight, they give you dependable superior-quality performance while occupying very little desk or table space.
