Over the years, lots of companies have tried to offer solutions that would allow us to watch our favorite TV programs while on the go, but none has succeeded, although Vizio seems to have finally nailed it with its latest 7 inch portable VMB070 Razor LED TV.
Although built inside a sleek 1 inch thin frame, the Vizio VMB070 comes packed full of features, while it also includes a built-in fold-away antenna and Dolby Digital sound together with a battery that can go for as much as 3.5 hours on a single charge.
Content-wise, the VMB070 can capture 1080i or 720p broadcasts thanks to the enclosed ATSC tuner, while also coming with a composite input and a USB port that can turn this
portable TV into an pretty advanced photo frame.
Other features include a built-in kickstand and touch sensitive TV controls, the whole device weighting in just 1 pound, or approximately 453 grams, so this is definitely one portable gadget.
"People want to take entertainment on the go, and there is no reason to sacrifice a quality picture in order to do so," stated VIZIO Co-founder and V.P. Laynie Newsome.
"We have been able to add back the fun in
watching TV and given it a great picture too.
I know how popular it is going to be first-hand - I had to fight my family for it again this morning."
All in all, the
Vizio VMB070 sure does look as one of the best portable TVs available right now, especially considering the $159.99 price tag, but it still remains to be seen if demand for such products is high enough for this to become a bestselling gadget.
