Yep, I'm guilty of buying the TV2 version with built-in USB memory. And It is just fun and really works in it's little form.

Here are the specs;

Dimensions: 47.6mm x 36.6mm x 25.9mm (1.9" x 1.4" x 1.0")
Display: IPS TFT 65K Color, 26mm (1.0"), 216x135 pixels
Battery: Li-Polymer 3.7V, 150mAh, about 2 hours of video playback
Storage: Built in 8GB, about 10 hours of video playback
Audio: 16x9mm (0.6" x 0.4") front facing speaker
Inputs: Power Button, 2 rotary knobs for channel and volume control
Remote: Can be controlled by an Infrared (IR) remote control
Processor: Raspberry Pi RP2040 Processor
Connectivity: USB-C for uploading and battery charging

It works out of the box with some pre-loaded videos. From there, you download their video converter to load your own. It takes in mpeg4 and downconverts to .avi. Then you USB connect and it shows up as a device. Just upload (a bit slow) the .avi and it is ready as a new channel. The speaker is too small to be really useful but it is there. The knobs control volume and channel change for each file. Color is quite good. You can set the conversion to show 4x3 with side pillars but I would skip for something this tiny. I loaded a BW movie to keep true to this forum and it looks great in BW.
