- The Alogic Folio Duo offers a dual-QHD portable display setup that works with both MacBooks and Windows-based laptops
- It’s one of the first portable monitors to offer full gesture control and 10-point multitouch on both Mac and Windows
- Folio Duo also allows users to charge their laptops on the go with 45W USB-C passthrough
Portable displays are hardly a new concept, with most products offering a significant upgrade in screen size, resolution, or both compared to the desktops, laptops, or MacBooks they connect to.
But some, like the Alogic Folio Duo, kick things up a notch while doubling the screen real estate, and its foldable design, combined with an integrated deck stand, makes for a much easier to deploy and carry solution than many of its peers.
With a dual-QHD configuration combined with a 400-nit display, the Folio Duo outperforms many of the devices it will inevitably be paired with, and that’s significantly while weighing in at around 1.2kg.
A premium portable offering with two screens
The Alogic Folio Duo first appeared at InfoComm 2026, pitched as a premium dual-monitor offering for professionals who simply need more screen space without adding as much of a volumetric footprint as some of its peers.
Alogic’s offering includes two IPS panels rated for 100% sRGB color accuracy with a native resolution of 2560×2880 (or 2560×1440 per display). However, potential gamers may be disappointed by the relatively tame 60Hz refresh rate, but it could be argued that most people wouldn’t be looking for a portable dual-monitor setup to begin with.
Like most of its peers, the Folio Duo offers USB-C connectivity, but kicks things up a notch by adding USB-PD input for an optional power source and a USB-C port for the device it connects to, so it can charge a MacBook or Windows laptop up to 45W via USB-C passthrough.
Alogic offers a generous 2-year warranty for the device and lists device compatibility that includes Apple, Chromebook and Microsoft devices, with the package including a screen cover in the box, while it skips the pressure-sensitive Active Style that the company sells, although it does integrate wireless charging into the package.
The fact that it’s one of the first dual-display notebook offerings to support full gesture control and 10-point multitouch on both Mac and Windows might underline the ambitious price tag the notebook display currently commands: a whopping $1,299, making it rival the recently relaunched 13.6-inch Apple MacBook Air (M5), a full-fledged computer.
For those who can afford it, however, the Folio Duo appears to be a premium portable dual-monitor offering with significantly higher resolution (and PPI), color and build quality than the UPerfect Delta Max Touch we recently reviewed, albeit at more than twice the price.
