yes, refurbished lappys is a good idea.
A quick search finds the cheapest "Portátil Lenovo ThinkPad T470 Intel
Core i5-6300U/8GB/256GB SSD/14" at 185€.
<https://www.pccomponentes.com/lenovo-thinkpad-t470-intel-core-i5-6300u-8gb-256gb-ssd-14?refurbished=seminew>
"Reconditioned" tablets start at 40€ (10"). A quick search finds a
"Tablet Lenovo Tab M11 11" 4/128GB Grey Pen Stylus" at 140€.
Android 13.
Mmm, designed for students, not multimedia.

Four Dolby Atmos speakers for your portable personal cinema:
An immersive audiovisual experience. With four Dolby
Atmos-compatible stereo speakers combined with the newly

stunning cinematic experiences, from superior sound quality
to high-fidelity visuals and stunning cinema-level effects.
Xiaomi HyperOS operating system and Android U

?? This one is enticing, but I know nothing about that operating
system. Chinese. Will it run VLC or Kodi?
or...
I could simply use my good laptop, moving it around when needed, instead
of purchasing anything. My old laptop was very good for this usage
because it existed, it was a way of using old hardware past its time.
Now that it doesn't work, I can use my working, good, laptop instead. I
have to move it each time, but I save on having to maintain more
hardware or buying hardware.
I can try it out today.

Cheers, Carlos.
