Our Verdict
Lenovo ThinkVision M14
ASUS ZenScreen Touch MB16AMT
The Lenovo ThinkVision M14 and the ASUS ZenScreen Touch MB16AMT are both okay portable monitors. They have similar features, but the Lenovo is much better for photo editing because it has a wider SDR color gamut and improved accuracy. The Lenovo has two USB-C inputs while the ASUS has one, but the ASUS has a Mini HDMI input. It also has built-in speakers, which the Lenovo doesn't.
