espresso Studio - Technology & Innovation

espresso Displays just dropped something new in 2026. Something we think will offer a competetive option for people who want to make their first step into owning an portable monitor, and enjoy the benefits of dual-screen pace, anywhere.

The espresso Lite 15 is a deliberate play at accessibility: a portable monitor built for people who want quality dual-screen productivity without a super premium price tag. At $249 USD, it's the most affordable way into the espresso ecosystem. Here's what you get.

The Essentials

Lite 15 is a 15.6-inch, Full HD (1080p) portable display running 100% sRGB at 400 nits. It draws just 5W of power, connects via a single USB-C cable, and weighs 700g (1.55 lbs). Plug it into a laptop, iPad, or compatible smartphone and you're working.

The iconic espresso Displays Stand+ comes in the box. It's slightly lighter than previous versions. Like with all espresso Displays models, this is powered via a single cable but the design carries dual USB-C ports have been repositioned centrally, with power passthrough built in. So, you can charge your laptop at the same time while running power through the second USB-C port.

Simplicity and personality are key for the Lite 15. It is designed to provide the best of espresso Displays, at an incredibly competetive price point.

The most colorful portable monitor. Work with personality and fun.

The Personality

This is where Lite 15 breaks from the espresso playbook... or any portable monitor brand for that matter. It ships in five colours: white, black, mint, orange, and purple. It's a clear signal that we're is reaching beyond the more serious buyer.

espresso Lite 15 can be a perfect match for any device, even an iPad.

Where It Sits in the espresso Displays Range

Lite 15 is the entry point. From here, the lineup steps up through the espresso Display 15, Touch 15, and the Pro 15 and 17 models. Each model is built for progressively more demanding workflows. Think of Lite 15 as the door in.

As CEO Will Scuderi put it: "So many people are now discovering the value of portable monitors, which is why we're launching Lite 15 to meet the needs of a much broader audience."
