The stand seems remarkably elegant and ergonomic for such large displays, while keeping the inner bezel thin and overall cost quite affordable at $700.
For comparison, the traditional vertical layout would require a dedicated monitor arm and extensive setup:

What impresses me the most is these kinds of 1st-gen niche products are often hackjobs solutions, while this has a level of design finish with a sense of ease of adjustability and portability.
Heck, I could even see the ever-intrepid @darkmagistric shlepping this to his local cafe. (Please take pictures when you do. )
Geminos X is touchscreen, Geminos is not touchscreen. Geminos is made from 2x 24” displays, where LG is 2X 21.5” displays. Also LG does not allow the screens to pivot nor does it include a docking station or web cams.
Yeah another good point. I was ready to make a snarky comment like “I too like to have my mixer faders at shoulder height”, but then I realized this wasn’t a touch setup.
So with 1440p and touch, it’s getting close to something I want. With pen support in the bottom panel it’d be the perfect markup/presentation setup.
Thanks for the shoutout, I’ve actually been aware of this product for a while now. Glad to see its on sites like B&H.
Currently I don’t have much of a need for this but I love the concept.
Between work and home I have 5 dual vertical monitor mounts. (work would never pay for this)
Now if they offered a mobile size one with a built in battery…I guess like the dual monitor equivalent of the Lenovo Yoga Book 9i, that I would totally buy. And yes, take it to coffee shops.
I was going to say “agree to disagree”, but then I checked and it has the same DPI as the monitor I’m using. I just remember that 1080p was only borderline acceptable on my X220t, but turns out at typical viewing distances of like 2ft it’s OK.
No, think your point was valid. The bottom screen can sit much closer than a typical monitor (almost at drawing monitor distance) so a higher DPI is relevant, especially for text rendering.
Also agree about the pen input. I’ve messaged Mobile Pixels both on Kickstarter and their website yo ask about the possibility of adding MPP support.
It’s not a drawing monitor though, and the 1080p version doesn’t even have touch.
At 24", you have to concentrate and almost have your nose on the screen to really see the individual pixels. Text isn’t the sharpest, especially logographic writing, but it’s fine.
And 1080p is more power efficient.
I’m not sure what the issue is considering that there’s a higher resolution version too.
A higher resolution version with touch and current generation Wacom EMR would convince me to re-arrange my workspace to fit it — just spoiled by a 27" monitor w/ 4K and my Samsung Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360.
I really wish Wacom wouldn’t worry so much about competing w/ the Cintiq line and would make a nicer version of the Wacom One. w/ touch and a brighter screen.
One minor consideration for those that might consider these. We haven’t formally tested any of them , but we have a customer that has purchased a few.
They seem to be multisourcing the panels they use. The issue with that would be things like calibration for production work. Fortunately they aren’t mixing panels within the same device and the two I’ve seen had good (but not great ) panels.
I do like the companies business approach and they were very responsive to our technical inquiries
