Boost Your Productivity with the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen: A Comprehensive Review

I’m a productivity guru.

I love figuring out any hack I can to be even 10% more productive. I recently reviewed the Tri-Screen 2 by Xebec, and was excited to test out another Tri-Screen, this time by UPERFECT.

Using a tri-screen is a great way to turn your laptop into a workstation powerhouse. Adding multiple screens to your computer allows you to open multiple windows simultaneously, which helps you get more done. Multi-screen workstations are fantastic but can be expensive and not very mobile. This is why I am excited about this review; a tri-screen gives you those capabilities with your laptop – which is fantastic.

UPERFECT sent me a sample of their 14″ Tri Screen Z, and I was able to demo it for several months before writing this review. Even though UPERFECT sent me a demo to test it out, this review is my honest option after using it.

Setting up the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen

I took the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen out of the box and began to set it up. After unpacking the protective covers, I placed the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen on my laptop. I’m using a 16″ Macbook Pro, and this tri-screen fits it perfectly. I didn’t have to read directions either – installation was pretty straightforward.

Adding the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen to your laptop is a different setup than the Xebec Tri-Screen 2. The Tri-Screen 2 had an elastic band design, you just stretched it out, and it squeezed your laptop. The UPERFECT Tri-Screen has a gear mechanism that slides in and out. The edges cup your laptop so the screens stay in place. Both systems work well.

I’m not sure which way I like best. The Xebec was a lot easier to get on your laptop.

You’ll get various cables for connecting your laptop with this tri-screen. I got a USB-C to USB-C cable for power and video (which my laptop comes with), so it was super easy to set up. You also have USB-A to USB-C (for power only) and htmi to htmi. If you use the htmi to htmi on your laptop, you’ll need to add the USB-A to USB-C cables to the screens for power.

I plugged the USB-C into my laptop, and the screens powered on. Once the screens are powered up, you can easily bend each screen to the preferred angle.

At the back of this tri-screen, you’ll find an expandable kickstand. You’ll need the kickstand to counter the weight of the two screens (just over three pounds of extra weight).

Adjust the kickstand to find the perfect height that changes the screen’s angle.

The Features of the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen

The UPERFECT Z Tri Screen is compatible with 13-16″ laptops. You can purchase two sizes of this tri-screen: 13.3″ and 14″.

It’s an FHD display which is a Full HD (FHD) display and refers to a screen resolution of 1920×1080 pixels.

This tri-screen offers a 60Hz refresh rate at 13.3″ or 14″. The display ratio is 16:9, offering a viewing angle of 178 degrees. The brightness of the screens is 350 nits (my 16″ Macbook Pro is 500 nits), and the color gamet is 100% sRGB.

Each screen offers a viewable area for the 13.3″ is 11.57×6.51″ and the 14″ is 12.18×6.85″.

I found that this tri-screen was built well. The 14″ model is made with an aluminum frame, and the 13.3 is built with ABS. It’s not the most expensive design and quality, but it’s good for the unit’s price.

I do have to admit that the device isn’t light. It weighs 2.9 pounds for the 13″ tri-screen and just over 3 pounds for the 14″.

Each screen was nice and bright, and the 14″ screens were easy to read. I found with the Tri-Screen 2, I had to change the resolution to read the text, but that’s not the case with the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen.

On the side of each screen, you’ll find a rocker button and a menu button; this allows you to change several settings on each LCD. This includes brightness and screen settings, image settings, color temp, OSD Settings, preset and miscellaneous settings.

When you fold the screen away, a built-in magnet keeps everything secure and allows you to transport it easily. I do find that the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen is a little bulky compared to the Tri-Screen 2, mainly because of its size.

Overall, great features and a solid design. I love how large the 14″ screens look and how easy it is to read and work on each screen. The size of the screens is definitely an improvement over the 6.5mm screens with the Tri-Screen 2.

One thing that I didn’t like about this tri-screen was the weight of this unit. The Tri-Screen 2 only weighs 2 pounds, and the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen comes in over 3 pounds. I found that the Xebec Tri-Screens 2 were a little more solid in their construction than the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen as well.

The Function of the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen

I took a couple of months to test this tri-screen and really put it to the test.

What was my verdict? I loved it. It significantly improved my productivity, and I appreciated the quality of each screen. I didn’t feel like I was compromising on quality by using the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen.

I edit a lot of videos, and the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen worked like a dream. I also loved using it for writing articles – one screen could be used for research, the other for email, and my main screen for writing. It worked fabulously.

I took some time and went to the library with this tri-screen; it was a dream. I love that I can take this powerhouse workstation wherever I go, and setting it all up was a breeze. I got the case with my Tri-Screen, so I could secure it in the case and bring it with me.

Lots of people asked me what I was doing, and they seemed impressed with my laptop setup.

I used the power pass-through, which allows you to connect your power supply to the screen and charge your laptop. I found that this feature worked as advertised. It charged my laptop at the same speed as connecting it to my laptop directly, which was better than the Xebec Tri-Screen 2.

Pros

There are several features that I loved about the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen.

I loved the price of the unit – it’s very affordable.

I love the large screens that are bright and easy to read.

This tri-screen is also easy to set up, and works on most laptops.

Cons

The UPERFECT Z Tri Screen is heavy.

I found that it shows fingerprints easily, and I was always wiping it down.

This tri-screen is bulky and could be difficult to transport.

Overall, everything worked well, and I was happy with the product.

The Price of the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen

If you’re thinking of purchasing the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen, there are many reasons why you should. One reason is the price.

You’re getting a fantastic value with this tri-screen at $359.99 for either the 13″ or 14″ screens. The 14″ screen fits my 16″ Macbook perfectly.

At this price, everyone can afford to be more productive on their laptop.

Verdict: Should You Buy the UPERFECT Tri-Screen?

After using this product for over a month, I was impressed with its quality and function.

The UPERFECT Z Tri Screen was easy to use. I was impressed with the clarity of the two 14″ LCD monitors. The text was nice, sharp, and easy to read, and getting work done with the two monitors was easy.

Does the Tri Screen make your life better? I believe it does. If you work from home, then the Tri Screen is a must. Adding two more screens to your workflow is a great idea, and their being portable is a bonus.

I enjoyed using the UPERFECT Z Tri Screen for this review and will probably continue to use these monitors for my online business.
