📺 Casio built a pocket TV back in 1986

In 1986, Casio released the Pocket TV-200, a portable television that ran on 2 AA batteries for about 2–3 hours.

The device used a natural light system. Light passed through a monochrome LCD matrix, and the final image was reflected onto a mirror inside the unit.

Long before smartphones, Casio was already experimenting with handheld screens powered by simple hardware.
