ASUS ZenScreen MB16AHV 16" Portable Monitor
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
ASUS ZenScreen MB16AHV 15.6" Portable Monitor (ASU-MB16AHV / 90LM0381-B02310) - 3 Years Local Warranty
A Dependable 15.6-Inch Second Screen for Everyday Mobility
The ASUS ZenScreen MB16AHV is a 15.6-inch Full HD (1920 x 1080) IPS portable monitor built for straightforward everyday use — a lightweight, reliable second screen rather than a specification showcase. For a Singapore professional who mainly needs a dependable extra display for spreadsheets, documents and video calls while moving between office, home and client sites, this is the no-frills option in the ZenScreen range.
At approximately 0.9 kg and around 10 mm thick, it sits comfortably alongside a laptop in a standard bag.
IPS Panel with Anti-Glare Surface
The panel is IPS with a 178°/178° viewing angle, 250 cd/m² typical brightness and an 800:1 contrast ratio, with an anti-glare surface treatment to cut down on reflections under office lighting. ASUS Eye Care — TÜV Rheinland-certified Flicker-Free and Low Blue Light filtering — is active by default, and ASUS SPLENDID preset modes, GamePlus overlays and a QuickFit alignment grid round out the software feature set shared across the ZenScreen range.
Antibacterial Surface Treatment
ASUS applies an antibacterial treatment to the surfaces of this model, a detail worth noting for anyone deploying the monitor in a genuinely shared environment — a hot-desking office, a training room, a reception counter — rather than a single dedicated user's desk. It does not change how the monitor performs day to day, but it is a real point of difference against ZenScreen models that do not carry this treatment.
Dual USB-C with Power Delivery and Mini-HDMI
Two USB-C (DisplayPort Alt Mode) ports handle both video and power, rated at up to 15W Power Delivery, plus a Mini-HDMI input for sources without USB-C video output. The 15W figure is enough to run the panel itself over USB-C without a separate adapter from most laptops, though it is not intended to meaningfully charge the host laptop — treat this as a display-power connection rather than a laptop-charging one.
Kickstand, Tripod Socket and Auto-Rotation
An integrated kickstand tilts from +15° to +35°, and a rear 1/4" tripod socket accepts a standard tripod or compatible monitor arm instead. With ASUS DisplayWidget software installed on the host laptop, the screen auto-detects rotation and switches between landscape and portrait.
ASUS SPLENDID, GamePlus and QuickFit
ASUS SPLENDID preset display modes make it quick to switch between colour profiles for different tasks, GamePlus overlays add crosshair, timer and FPS-counter tools that are handy even outside competitive gaming, and QuickFit provides an on-screen grid for aligning photos, ruled paper sizes or spreadsheet layouts directly against the display — the same core software feature set carried across the ZenScreen range.

Connectivity & Portability
USB-C Power Delivery — What 15W Covers
The USB-C connection is rated to deliver up to 15W to the monitor, enough to run the panel itself from most laptops without a separate power adapter for the display. This is a display-power figure, not a laptop-charging one — do not expect the monitor's USB-C port to meaningfully charge the host laptop the way a 60W or 100W dock would.
Mini-HDMI for Non-USB-C Sources
Where the source device has no USB-C video output, the Mini-HDMI port covers it, though HDMI carries video only and the monitor still needs its USB-C connection or a separate power source for power.
Kickstand, Tripod Mount and Orientation
The kickstand tilts from +15° to +35°, and the rear 1/4" tripod socket takes a standard tripod or compatible monitor arm instead. Both landscape and portrait orientation are supported, and ASUS DisplayWidget software auto-detects physical rotation.
Weight for Daily Carry
At approximately 0.9 kg, the MB16AHV is comfortably in the lighter half of the ZenScreen range, suited to being carried daily rather than left permanently at one desk.

Frequently Asked Questions — ASUS MB16AHV
Will the USB-C connection charge my laptop as well as run the monitor?
Not meaningfully. The 15W Power Delivery figure is sized to run the monitor itself, not to charge a host laptop. If you need single-cable laptop charging as well as video, the MB229CF and MB249C in our catalogue support up to 60W Power Delivery.
What is the antibacterial treatment, and does it matter for a single user?
It is a surface treatment ASUS applies to the bezel and rear of this model, most relevant where the monitor is shared across a hot-desking office or training room rather than used by one person at a fixed desk. It has no effect on display performance.
Does it have HDMI as well as USB-C?
Yes, one Mini-HDMI input, for sources without USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode video output.
Can it run in portrait mode?
Yes, via the integrated kickstand, and with ASUS DisplayWidget software installed the display auto-detects physical rotation.
How does the MB16AHV differ from the MB16ACV in your catalogue?
The core panel spec is the same 15.6-inch Full HD IPS with antibacterial treatment. The MB16AHV connects via dual USB-C plus Mini-HDMI; the MB16ACV instead uses a hybrid USB-C signal solution that also supports USB-A hosts via driver. Choose based on which connection type matches your laptop.
Does it have built-in speakers?
No. Audio needs to be output from the connected laptop or a separate speaker.
What is in the box?
The monitor, a ZenScreen sleeve, a USB Type-C cable, a Mini-HDMI cable, a warranty card and a quick start guide.
Does it come with a Singapore warranty and a GST invoice?
Yes. Every ASUS ZenScreen MB16AHV sold by SourceIT comes with local Singapore warranty and a GST invoice; ASUS backs the MB16AHV with a 3-year manufacturer warranty.
