A Second Screen for Client Meetings: Present and Work at the Same Time

Anyone who presents to clients on a laptop knows the little dance: you turn the screen toward them to show the proposal, then turn it back to check a figure or your notes, then turn it again. One screen means either they see it or you do, never both. A fold-out extra screen fixes that — you show them one thing and work from another at the same time, and it folds away the moment the meeting ends. Last updated: September 2026. The problem with one screen in a meeting A single laptop display forces a choice. Either the client watches your screen (and you are flying blind on your notes, price list or CRM), or you keep control of it (and they are staring at the back of your laptop). Neither is how you want to sell, advise or present. How a fold-out screen changes it With an extra panel, you split the job: Client side — the proposal, the design, the quote, the slides. Angle a panel toward them so it is theirs to look at. Your side — your talking points, the figures, the CRM, the calculator, the next slide queued up. You present and work in parallel, keep your notes private, and never turn the laptop around again. Because it clips to the laptop over a single USB-C cable, it is set up in seconds and packs flat afterwards. Who it suits Sales and account managers — demo on one screen, notes and pricing on the other. Consultants and advisers — show the client their numbers while you drive the model. Financial and mortgage advisers, estate agents, designers — anyone who shows a client something on a screen and needs their own working view alongside it. Which one For meetings you often only need one extra panel toward the client, but the same unit gives you a full multi-screen setup back at the desk. The S10 for a 15.6-inch laptop and the S5 with sharp 16-inch 2.5K panels both suit client-facing work where the picture needs to look crisp and professional. See the range in the shop. It travels to the client site, the café or the co-working desk where there are no monitors — and it is packed away in your bag on the way out. Want a hand picking one for how you present?
