I Love This Portable 32-Inch Touchscreen TV and It's on Offer for Amazon's Memorial Day Sale
It's essentially a TV on wheels connected to a 15,000-mAh battery buried somewhere inside the base of its stand. However, I'd be hard-pressed to call this thing a TV; since it's touch screen, it's more like an oversized Android tablet on wheels. Somehow, since it arrived at my doorstep, it has followed me everywhere I go in the house. In fact, it's watching me type at this very moment. Now I can't imagine what life would be like if my giant Android tablet were to leave. It's become everything: a TV, a monitor, a signboard, a companion, a friend… I digress.

What exactly is this TV for?
A bit of everything, really. So far, I've used it to watch anime with my headphones connected, lounging on the couch while my partner uses the living room TV. I've used it as a monitor for my MacBook while working. I've rolled it up to my minibar and used it to look at cocktail recipes while mixing. I've used it as a recipe book, a kitchen chalkboard, an indoor news signboard, an outdoor TV and the list goes on and on.

It also has a front camera -- not a very powerful one but it could work in a pinch. You can set it up to do video calls with friends and family who don't care too much about video quality. It's also perfect for video calling in a games night, and we've used it as a Scrabble dictionary instead of people using different phones to check words.
Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.
It's not particularly the best at all these things. For instance, there are many dedicated outdoor TVs and projectors with better sound, image quality and insulation but it's perfect at being a jack-of-all-trades, moving around the house to where it's needed the most. It cannot completely replace a tablet, a phone, a monitor or even a TV, though and I won't recommend it as any one of these. But if you need an average extra screen for any reason or a smart display for your smart home -- this is the way.
What are the specs?
As a tablet, its performance is decent. It has an 8-core unspecified CPU that runs Android 12 OS compatible with many apps in the App Store, 128GB of built-in storage and 6GB of RAM. So far, I haven't noticed any lag in performance or video playback.
Dreamchild & Marceline/CNET
The 32-inch display has a surprisingly crisp high-contrast LCD panel, 60Hz refresh rate and 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution. With its ability to rotate and swivel, it's not hard to adjust it to a good viewing angle. It is lacking in the sound department, though, I've taken to pairing it with a portable Bluetooth speaker.
Another thing that pleases me about this smart screen is its battery. Fiteye claims you can get up to 7 hours of usage time with it. I've left mine on for up to 48 hours, displaying my curated Flipboard widget at the lowest brightness. However, since the battery isn't integrated into the tablet, tracking battery health using the LED screen on the base's stand is a hassle since the numbers are inaccurate and the LED display tends to shut off when inactive.

Jim Cramer attributes market resilience to Big Tech's earnings success
CNBC's Jim Cramer reviewed Monday's market action and told investors that stocks' rebound from last week was lead by positive news from the Magnificent Seven Tech stocks — Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, Apple, Alphabet, Nvidia and Tesla. "Now, some of that may be because…the Fed has to cut, maybe even before September — I mean, that's how weak the employment numbers are," he said. "But at the heart of the market's resilience is, well…the Magnificent Seven." The indexes closed in the red on Friday as investors worried about a much weaker-than-expected labor report and President Donald Trump's modification of "reciprocal" tariffs on a number of countries. But stocks reversed course on Monday, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 1.34%, the S&P 500 added 1.47% and the Nasdaq Composite surged 1.95%. The market doesn't seem to be concerned that Trump suddenly fired the Bureau of Labor and Statistics Commissioner, Erika McEntarfer, and accused her of manipulating jobs data, Cramer said. Many of stocks that had been strong on Thursday but sank on Friday proceeded to recoup their losses during Monday's session, he pointed out. Cramer reviewed recent earnings from the tech titans, starting with Microsoft. He called the quarter "flawless," saying the company seems to be doing well in every segment of business. He noted that its cloud infrastructure division, Azure, saw a huge acceleration in growth. Cramer was also impressed with some figures from Meta's recent report, especially management's claim that 3.5 billion people use at least one Meta product a day. Alphabet is seeing success throughout the company, Cramer said, including its Google search business, Youtube and AI product, Gemini. He also said the Waymo business is building a nice lead over the rest of the autonomous vehicle space. Apple had a "tremendous" report, Cramer continued, emphasizing its better-than-expected growth. He was encouraged by management's comments on artificial intelligence innovations in the future. Amazon also did well, Cramer continued, with good results from retail sales and advertising revenue, as well as decent numbers from the web services division. While Cramer said Tesla's vehicle business is poor, he said it's doing very well as a tech company. He suggested it's worth owning for its autonomous driving and robots. Although Nvidia has yet to report, Cramer expressed optimism about the chipmaker and demand for its products. "Even though the Mag Seven has one hand tied behind its back with Tesla, we had tepid reactions to Apple and Amazon's numbers," he said. "The fact is that these companies, loaded with cash, not outrageously expensive — nation states, I call them — with multiple revenue streams and tight expenses, just can't be beat by any stretch of the numbers or the imagination."

Where To Eat And Drink Off-Strip In Las Vegas Right Now
Michael and Jenna Morton, the Las Vegas hospitality power couple behind La Cave, Crush and One Steakhouse, have opened their first neighborhood restaurant. And what a neighborhood restaurant it is. At Morton Group's Nudo Italiano in Southern Highlands, chef William DeMarco celebrates his Long Island roots with crowd-pleasing, family-friendly Italian-American food that you want to eat again and again. The top-tier meatballs and stellar sausage pizza (with ricotta, chili flakes and the kind of crust that fights back just enough when you bite into it) are wondrous reminders of what can happen when a talented chef bets the house on red sauce. Nudo's bucatini with shrimp scampi pops with Calabrian chili and a generously correct amount of garlic. Habit-forming chicken Francese over linguine is perfectly egg-battered, strikingly lemony and delightfully buttery. For dessert, there's raspberry cheesecake 'spaghetti and meatballs' with chocolate truffle orbs and white chocolate that's grated like Parm at your table. This place is a lot of fun. In recent years, powered by chefs including James Trees of Esther's Kitchen and Brian Howard of Sparrow + Wolf, Las Vegas has seen its off-Strip dining and drinking scene get bigger and bolder. At the Town Square development, where Howard had an eclectic restaurant called Nu Sanctuary 15 years ago, you can now eat comforting Vietnamese food at a new outpost of Pho Kim Long or enjoy theatrical cocktails and chef Todd Mark Miller's contemporary steakhouse fare at the vibey new Guest House. At Town Square's new Tamba, chef Anand Singh has a live-fire kitchen with a charcoal grill, Josper oven, tandoor and wok station that he uses to make modern Indian food and a lot more. You can and should come here for juicy fire-kissed kebabs and standard-setting curries like butter chicken and achari okra dopiaza. You should pair your meal with wine, sake or Giuseppe Gonzalez's cocktails that are inspired by Indian royal history. But you should also know that Singh's life and travels have taken him to destinations including the Maldives and Mexico. So there's deeply personal all-over-the map food here, including a fierce Madras tuna laap that very much tastes like top-tier Thai street food but is an original creation all its own. Another transporting all-over-the-map destination in Las Vegas is the new Doberman Drawing Room in the Arts District, the neighborhood where Trees recently relocated Esther's Kitchen to a larger location and also opened Bar Boheme. At Doberman Drawing Room, a moody cocktail bar and members club that feels like an old mansion with curios from another era, famed mixologist Juyoung Kang is serving show-stopping drinks like the sweet, savory, spicy and creamy tom kha fizz and the Marilyn and Madness combo with two different Rosa vermouth cocktails side-by-side. (For a extra hit of cheekiness, see if you can find the photograph of Corner Bar Management boss Ryan Doherty in an antique cabinet.) You can also come here for martinis with caviar-stuffed olives and the Nine Countries cocktail that merges mezcal with yuzu kosho. Like New York's Double Chicken Please and buzzy Los Angeles newcomers Daisy Margarita Bar and Bar Benjamin, Doberman is adept at creating drinks that taste like dinner and also drinks that taste like dessert. If you want to eat here for real, tinned mussels and sea salt kettle chips with terrific sour cream and caramelized onion dip are nice ways to start. You can get caviar with your dip, too. Casual off-Strip dining is also leveling up at hot spots like the new Southwest Las Vegas outpost of Nana's Green Tea, a popular Tokyo-born cafe with beautiful matcha parfaits and soul-warming dishes like soboro don and chicken katsu curry. The cutlet game is also strong at the new Cheongdam Food Hall on Spring Mountain Road at Durango Drive, where Namsan Tonkatsu serves Korean cutlets right next to where Curry Ya serves Japanese cutlets. There's a lot to explore at this food hall including Broken Coffee (which makes lovely signature lattes like a mocha latte, an organic hojicha latte and a strawberries-and-cream latte), the buzzing Smile Shota all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant, grab-and-go Korean food at Market Green Table and machines where you can make packaged ramen. As always, a lot of the fun in Vegas is about choosing your own adventure.
