DoubleSight Displays USB Sub Monitors Released

Tweet

Sub monitors that facilitate a convenient extra display courtesy of USB connectivity are increasingly cropping up these days and along with the previously featured MIMO UM-710 & UM-740, Century Plus One LCD-8000U and the Samsung Syncmaster U701 (to name but three) DoubleSight Displays have added to your range of consumer options thanks to the release of their new range of USB sub monitors – namely the 7” DS-70U, 9” DS-90U and 9” DS-90U which also packs in an integrated webcam.

Billed as being perfect for use with laptops and notebooks as well as acting as supplementary displays for desktops (thus serving to offer additional, ‘bolt-on’ screen real estate), the new DoubleSight Displays USB sub monitors, apart from utilising USB for both video input and their power requirements – the former being especially handy if your graphic card offers little scope for adding secondary conventional monitors – are compatible with both PC and Mac systems and are multi monitor capable, so your can hook up more than one should you have the required USB ports going spare. In fact, if you have six free USB ports you could hook up six of these in addition to your primarily display though you’d need a particularly powerful system to run such a setup, as well as some pretty serious desk space.

The new DoubleSight Displays USB sub monitors, which boast DisplayLink technology allowing you to, amongst other things, change between portrait and landscape orientation with just a click of a mouse, have just started shipping with the 7” DS-70U and 9” DS-90U coming in at $119 and $139 respectively whilst the 9” DS-90U, which sports an inbuilt webcam, will set you back just shy of $160.
