Once upon a time, a portable TV was this:
Now it's this:
That's LG's StanbyME 2, a portable 27" screen that can easily be popped off of its stand. It receives content wirelessly through LG's webOS TV platform, allowing you to stream Netflix, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, et cetera, navigating by the device's touchscreen interface.
You can also use it as an external monitor for your computer, connecting it via HDMI.
You can also use it to wirelessly mirror your computer's screen, which might make it handy in a design studio situation, where you can literally haul it over to a colleague's desk for presentations and the like.
It weighs 9.5 pounds (4.3kg), and the battery provides four hours of runtime.
The device runs $1,600.
