Help with my portable

McScruffUK

Hi all, i am going to put together a portable with a pi zero.

I would like to be able to have a web browser (prob need a desktop for that), play game boy games and run kodi.
I would like to be able to get 3-5 hours min on a battery, to be able to recharge the battery. And have a usb socket that i can access on the side of the case and maybe a hdmi output so i can go full screen. I was also thinking about putting a hardware button in to turn it all off with a shutdown script but that can come later.
The size im looking for is altoids tin size
What i need help with is parts.
Pi zero
A screen
A battery
A charging board

Any help would be appriciated

@McScruffUK the only thing you may struggle with is the browser. Portable screen sizes have lower resolutions, so you wouldn't be able to read much. I think the HDMI will have to have the same resolution as your little screen

@Jiehfeng thanks, i will have a look.
@moosepr the browser wouldnt be needed for the small screen. Only if i hooked it up to a tv with the hdmi. Eg, if your in a hotel and need to use a web browser to sign in to their wifi

@McScruffUK when I made my handheld I had to set the pi to the same resolution as my screen, which is 320x240. I had to change config files to set this resolution, and if I connect it to a screen via HDMI I get the same resolution on the TV. Someone else may know different.
