A 27-inch display in a briefcase

To some people, but the inclination to use Third Spaces for lots of things is big. I am quite well setup for at home, suffer for nothing, and I find it incredibly fun and engaging to get out of my home and do even introverted activities somewhere else.
Little park watching parties are definitely a thing around here. Usually they are on extremely marginal cheap ass projectors though.
I haven’t seen a boardroom without a huge screen and all kinds of input options for years. I also notice that people happily watch IMAX stuff on their phones.
It would be ok for a bedroom TV, because people might have dressers that might have enough space to accommodate it.
It would be great for trade show like environments, if you want something bigger than a tablet on a stand (Although a tablet on a stand is probably good enough and way more convenient...).
Maybe it would have been better if it was a 17 inch instead of 27, so it could fit on a desk and be a second monitor better.
But it's hard to set up somewhere with a decent setup. I can see this being part of a really usable remote work setup.
If it was 4K, I'd consider it as a travel work monitor...
This is cool for those who may watch something as a group though. If the audio is solid.
In group settings it becomes ludicrous to have everyone put on their goggles and sync up.
I think this will work if people are on airplanes or living in “the stacks” where there is really just no room.
