by ViewSonic
Sold by Amazon.comDisplay
Each of the two panels is a 14-inch WUXGA IPS display at 1920×1200 resolution with a 16:10 aspect ratio. The screens run at 60Hz with a brightness of 250 cd/m² and an 800:1 static contrast ratio (50,000,000:1 dynamic). Viewing angles are 170° horizontal and 170° vertical.
The surface is anti-glare with a 3H hard coating, and color depth is 8-bit (6-bit + FRC). Backlight life is rated at 15,000 hours.
Mac users are limited to a maximum resolution of 1920×1080 on each screen.
Five Viewing Modes
The VG1457 supports five distinct configurations:
- Full-Screen — Both panels open flat, creating a continuous 19-inch viewing area for solo work
- Share — Both screens open outward facing opposite directions, allowing two people to view simultaneously from either side
- Mirror — Duplicates the same content across both panels
- Extend — Spreads the desktop across both screens
- Portrait — Rotates both panels into vertical orientation for document-heavy work
The G-Sensor detects orientation automatically and rotates the display content to match, without requiring manual input.
Foldable Kickstand Design
The VG1457 folds flat to 15mm for transport and opens via a specialized hinge that supports transitions between landscape and portrait orientations. The stand hinge opens up to 90°, with tilt adjustment of 15° forward and 45° back, swivel of 340°, and pivot range of 0–180° in both landscape and portrait modes.
The included protective case doubles as a carry sleeve for the monitor.
Connectivity and Power
Three USB-C ports handle all connections:
| Port | Specification |
|---|---|
| USB-C (×3) | 65W Power Delivery each |
65W two-way Power Delivery means the monitor can draw power from a laptop’s USB-C port, or alternatively pass power through to charge a connected mobile device. Two devices can run on independent screens simultaneously using the dual USB-C inputs.
Power consumption is 13W typical and 18.5W maximum, with a 0.5W standby draw. Input voltage accepts AC 100–240V universal, making it compatible for international use.
Audio
Two 2W internal speakers are built in — one per panel — for audio output without an external source.
