BlitzWolf BW-PCM1 is an Inexpensive 11.6″ Portable Display

The BlitzWolf Portable Display

The BlitzWolf BW-PCM1 is an 11.6″ portable monitor designed for function and performance. The versatile screen has a number of features that other portable monitors, don’t have. This expanded ability seems to usher in a new era of portable monitors.

The Idea Behind the Portable Display

The BW-PCM1 was designed to a greater extent to use a gamer’s model for resolution at Full HD for 1920 x 1080 and auto-refresh at a range of 24 – 60 Hz. It is inexpensive and has a number of positive features and some negatives as well.

Power Access

The screen needs to be plugged into a power source and there is no indication that there will be a battery option. That is not to say never,  just at this time there is no battery available for the unit.

The BW-PCM1 Cons

The display is designed to be lightweight, and thin, but not the most in either instance.  There is a remote control, that is convenient but requires a CR2032 coin-cell battery that is apparently not included with the unit. 

BlitzWolf BW-PCM1 Portable Display Specifications

The BW-PCM1 has 2x mini HDMI 1.4 ports, 1x USB Type-C port, an audio jack, and built-in stereo speakers. There is a button series on the side of the screen for power, volume, settings, and back, which many other portable screens do not have.

Observations

There does seem to be a requirement that both a HDMI and USB must be connected to the mobile device in order to function properly as a second screen.

Gaming Access

The BW-PCM1 can be connected to Nintendo Switch, Xbox and PS4, which is a distinct feature for a portable monitor.

Note you may be able to shave off $6 from the price, or even $18 if you are a new customer, since Banggood offers coupons for Black Friday 2019.

Those prices do not include internatinoal shipping though. For reference, international shipping (for 1kg) with China post adds around $39 (Zone 2) or $47 (to Zone 3) based on a shipping calculator I found on the web.

Well actually they need to be much cheaper than this. USB C carries native displayport already, and there are lots of EDP displays which can be driven with a usb c and a small microcontroller to handle display and alternate modes.

I dont know why they are using hdmi and converter chips with this products, it just creates cost.

I was looking at these earlier, they seem to support a one cable setup

Because it’s what people have on their side and people want to connect easily.

Not every owned desktop, laptop, phone, or game console came with a fully featured USB C port. That’s before you start to consider Amazon and Google TV sticks or the vast number of ‘micro’ computers such as the Raspberry Pi 4.
