"Apply $50 coupon"
Japanese brand.

I've been after a portable display for IoT and homelab stuff without the drama of carrying a full display.

I've been watching this brand because it's a Japanese brand, no more words are needed!!!!

My single issue is this model being 1080P, once you go 1440P there is no going back, oh well.
For "quickies" it will do.

      At 15"?
      Thats a silly requirement.

      The old 19" 1280x960 resolution would even be fine, to achieve larger elements for the OPs use of random IoT and projects, where dpi scaling might not be accessible.

      That’s because your eyesight is failing.

    • I checked it and it doesn't work at checkout for me

      • Yeah seems to be a phantom. I was thrown because I had some gift card credit from a recent refund, that made it looked like a further discount.

  • I got it for 90 something too.

    Catch me duct taping a Series S to this thing and taking it everywhere.

    I asked Amazon about the 30% off coupon yesterday and they said it would only apply if the product was sold by Amazon AU. Disappointing because it would have been an awesome price. $109 is more the norm now.

    It's still made in China with the rest of them. Infact go to any electronic store in Japan and you'll find that to be the case with pretty much all new electronics.

    • I see. How strange of them to dangle it then, if they know it doesn't work. Can only annoy customers, especially those who figure it out after purchase.

      I asked Amazon about the 30% off coupon yesterday and they said it would only apply if the product was sold by Amazon AU.

      I don't think that support person knew what they were talking about.

      The 30% off coupon applies just fine on this item as long as you haven't also redeemed the $50 coupon.

      If you redeemed both then point 4 of the T&Cs apply.

      1. Offer may not be combined with other offers. All applicable offers will be evaluated and the highest discounts available will be applied at checkout.
      • For those playing at home:

        $50.00 off = $109.99
        30% off = $111.99

      • Pretty typical of Amazon support, however they were correct about both not working with each other.

    I'm pretty sure this isn't a Japanese brand.
    Their domain is owned by a Chinese company and the Japanese text on their website feels machine translated.
    Their website shows a sketchy address in small Japanese town (with a Chinese version of Google Maps) and some other Chinese companies on Rakuten use the same address.

      Nice super sleuthing. That makes this the Minamino Hori Hori garden knife of portable monitors.

        No-one would just go on the internet and tell lies!!

          Haha you clearly believe in flat Earth if you believe the internet isn't the most used source for spreading misinformation lmao

          I just received mine, you don't get this packaging quality with Chinese goods.
          The box has Japanese all over it with translation to English.
          Perhaps all these Japanese writing and packaging quality are also fake, what a fake world!

    Costed me $69 ..might be hack it says $50 off and in addition to 30% off so bought it for $109 and then they applied another $50 voucher when I told them that I didn’t get any additional discount(30% off) to bring down to $69 typing from the same monitor .. very good quality no complaints..

    • Costed

      Cost.

      Costed is used more in business and political contexts.

      "The project was costed at 20 million dollars." (The estimated cost of the project was calculated to be $20 million.)

      "The bill was not fully costed." (Meaning the bill — a proposed law — doesn't fully explain where the money to pay for it is coming from. It should be noted I've only ever heard this phrase used once or twice so this usage might be incorrect.)

      You wouldn't use it in a normal conversation to refer to how much something costs (in the past). "It cost me $69" is how you say how much something cost you

    Instead of this one, why not choose this Yodoit one for a better screen resolution, IPS, cheaper, has more reviews and higher rating as well?

    • +1

      Long answer hahaha

      It's cheaper, Yodoit is only $99 against $159 and people will often buy the cheapest.
      But to your credit:

      This Ingnok has 1200:1 contrast ratio against 1000:1 from Yodoit.
      Yodoit is allegedly HDR and IPS, Ingnok is only IPS.

      Ingnok comes with a stand, when dealing with IoT/homelab/anywhere really, a stand to bring the display height close to the eyes height, saves your back. My laptops stand on arm mounts so the display sits at the same level as my eyes.

      One last thing, bad reviews: I always check the bad reviews. The good reviews are folks that often just will turn it on and it if works that's all about it.
      Bad reviews excluding those who don't read, usually tell you problems worth of knowing. Yodoit HDR is allegedly not a true HDR based on review from somebody trying to work with design.

      Ingnok contacted folks who left bad reviews to provide replacement, Amazon AU would do that anyway, the newer model has been redesigned.

      Personal preferences I guess.

      The Japanese site is machine translated. "Home" is translated "家" (meaning house, not website homepage), the address is in the wrong order, several weird phrases (Warranty Assurance = "保証保証"/"guarantee guarantee" lol)

      https://ingnok.com/ja/pages/brand-story

      Odds are it's a Chinese company. Even the name isn't Japanese - there's no 'ng" or "ok" in Japanese. Japanese name transliterates to "Innoku". Not that this is an issue in itself but in the context of the website that clearly wasn't written by a Japanese speaker, it's not likely to be a Japanese company.

        Established further in the other deal.

        Ingnok is a trademark of "SHENZHENSHI Ingonk Innovation Co,.LTD". Besides the obvious typo it's definitely a Chinese company.

        Plus the days of "all electronics are made in Japan" ended over 10 years ago. Akihabara is AliExpress Central.

        I just received mine, it has Japanese all over it with English translation for some info.

        The Japanese site is machine translated. "Home" is translated "家" (meaning house, not website homepage

        That means nothing, translation always get lost.
        Many news got into hot water due to bad translation for so many languages. You have poor judgment.

        • +1

          I mean, these were just a couple of examples of particularly egregious mistranslations. I'm not going to explain on Ozbargain the details of Japanese grammar and how virtually every sentence is poor if not garbled on what is ostensibly the Japanese-language website for a Japanese company. Why should any of these be translations, let alone poor-quality machine translations?

          Or maybe I'm wrong and they're really a Japanese company but their copy writers are all barely literate for some reason, and it's a coincidence that the trademark is registered to a company in Shenzhen. I'll have to take your word for it that the box covered in Japanese (definitely not Chinese!) is all in natural language, not garbled nonsense.

          None of this makes the product poor or this a bad deal, but I'm not trusting a company that's lying about where they're from even before I've bought anything.

  • without thisdeal, the normal price is $115, plus 5% off at checkout now, making it $110 o.O
