This would be great while on vacation.
Neat. What would the use case for this be though? Maybe while riding on a plane?
If you’re somewhere where there’s sunlight, you could play on this instead of the switch. I don’t know about you, but I can’t see anything on my switch while playing in daylight.
I absolutely know what you mean. I got these for myself, they work awesome:

But it has to be said you pay with a little decrease in image sharpness. Not much, but noticeable if you look closely.
Actually, given the low resolution of aot of Switch games, I find the matte protector is like a layer of physical anti-alasing.
That made me laugh loud :D But yes, it’s right. You can absolutely describe it this way!
That’s neat. A more sensible option despite any loss in quality. Thanks for sharing that.
Yeah. Travel. We were in a cabin for a weekend recently and I had my iPad and we had our switch, would’ve been nice to connect the two. The little screen on the switch is just too small for 2 player games.
I got a laptop with a USB-C port which supports external monitors. Does anyone know what I would need to use my iPad Pro as a second monitor with this port? Or would I have to use the HDMI port with peripherals like in the link?
Does it also work with a Windows PC?
The article says it doesn’t add any lag, but I am skeptical. At the very least there will be a buffer to sync playback with the display. Apple didn’t design this feature with this use case in mind, so I doubt they put in any special effort to minimize latency.
In my experience, when random people say they “don’t feel any lag” with something but don’t put up any numbers to back it up, I usually end up feeling quite a bit of lag that they just don’t notice for one reason or another.
I think you’re right to be skeptical. I keep meaning to try it myself, but I’m easily distracted. I’ll likely find motivation in the fall when I go on vacation.
