Please recommend a portable monitor for my game console so that I can also play FPS games and do some simple office work

[Albert]

I just bought a steam deck Oled, I’m thinking about getting a portable monitor with keyboard and mouse trackpad so I can deal with some docs & sheets. I don’t have regular working space and I travelled a lot.
1.I hope it can also use with ipad pro 3rd .
2.I don’t need the monitor to have a touch screen.

Some things for you to think about:

* You likely want a hub/dock as you'll want to be able to charge your SD while the monitor is connected
* Are you seeking a full sized keyboard or a portable/foldable one?
* At least with the LCD Deck, it acted a bit funny with more than 3 Bluetooth devices connected. I haven't heard of anyone with the OLED Deck having that behavior but just something to keep in mind
* What are you expecting to use your iPad for with it?


I have a travel setup that I use for my phone and Steam Deck. It consist of:

Monitor: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09NPWV7ZZ/
Keyboard: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07ZRNJ4DX/
Hub: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07ZVKTP53/

The keyboard stores 3 different bindings. I have my phone and Deck bound so if I'm traveling and my work laptop stops working, I can use my phone (Samsung Fold) or Deck as a desktop to connect to a VDI.

Because my laptop is obsolete, my pocket money is used to buy steam deck OLED, and I have not updated my laptop, so I want to find a product that can be combined with ipad pro and steam deck, so that I don't have to buy a new laptop. But neither the Ipad nor the steam deck comes with a keyboard or mouse, so I'm frustrated.

If you think your iPad could replace your laptop, it would be cheaper to go that route:

iPad - you just need keyboard/mouse. It is the monitor.
Deck - you need keyboard, mouse, monitor, hub

Yes, but the ipad keyboard is too small
Deck - you need keyboard, mouse, monitor, hub

My steam deck Oled received for 3 days and felt that most games were Ok with the controller operation, but DOTA 2 could not be played, my previous laptop was flooded, so I could only play 2077 and Horizon 5 on steam deck, and many games originally played on the laptop could not be played. But the great thing is, I get to stay in bed and play, which is great.
