The espresso Pro 17 Touch is a premium 17.3-inch 4K portable monitor designed to give MacBook users a larger, colour-accurate second screen wherever they work. It’s ideal for creatives, developers and professionals who need extra workspace, while the ingenious magnetic Stand+ delivers unmatched portability, flexibility and ergonomic positioning. Who is it for? Creative professionals, developers, engineers and executives who need a large, high-quality portable display for productivity or colour-sensitive work. Who shouldn’t buy it? If you just need a needs a simple second screen, the cheaper espresso Lite 15 (reviewed separately) offers better value for everyday productivity, while travellers may prefer the lighter Pro 15. A second screen to expand your MacBook’s workspace allows you to multitask more efficiently without the frustration of constant tab jumping, or searching for hidden windows even on a 16-inch MacBook Pro. You get more space for viewing open windows at the same time—for instance, for supporting documents or apps while you’re on a video call or giving a presentation. Blessed with one or more displays, your laptop is transformed into a real alternative to a desktop computer. That’s fine in a dedicated office but if you need to move around or even just hide the whole setup away when not in use, you should look for a properly portable display. We’ve reviewed several of the best portable displays, and we were mighty impressed by the lightweight and clever espresso range, which starts with the 15.6-inch espresso Lite 15 but hits its peak with the 17.3-inch 4K touchscreen expresso Pro 17. If the $799 / £649 price puts you off, keep reading as you get a lot for your money: from the top-end screen to the clever magnetic Stand+, touchscreen functionality and a bunch of smart software tools. Creatives, executives, developers and engineers will be most interested in the Pro 17 (a 15.6-inch Pro with touch is also available) with its 4K resolution and multi-touch functionality. If you just want a super-portable second screen, read our review of the HD-screen 15 Lite that’s the right mix of features and price in the most portable design of the range. Simon Jary How portable is it really? The entire espresso range delivers on thinness and weight. The Pro 17 measures 15.7 x 9.7 x 0.35 inches (398 x 246 x 9mm) and weighs 1.55lbs (1.1kg). It’s actually thinner than the 15 Lite that is 0.37 inches (9.5mm) thick, although only a pedant would make a big deal of that. More worthy of note is the 0.2-inch (5.5mm) thinness of the non-Lite non-touch espresso 15. If you plan to be carrying your second screen around a lot, you might consider weight and size against the benefits of a larger screen. The anodized aluminum Pro models weigh more than the plastic-build Lite 15, which is a noticeable 0.4kg lighter than the Pro 17. The sweet spot is the Pro 15 that’s only 100g heavier than the Lite 15 and the same basic dimensions. A pro for the Pro is the smaller bezel around the screen: around 6.4mm on the sides and top compared to the Lite’s 9.5mm. The Pro 15 measures 14.2 x 8.9 x 0.35 inches (360 x 225 x 9mm) and weighs 1.76lbs (0.8kg). The margins are fine indeed. It doesn’t have to be used…
