Amazon Offers This 15.6″ Portable Monitor for Less Than It Was on Prime Day, Already Selling Out Fast

There are lots of ways to add a bit more utility to your tech life. You can get power banks, you can look for additional batteries and memory upgrades, or you can add another screen to your setup. That last one can make a big difference if you're looking to get one for a desk that doesn't move, but it's a lot harder if you're after something that works on the go.

Well, if you want a bit more flexibility, then a portable monitor could be the answer you've been searching for. Right now, you can get your hands on the KYY 15.6-inch portable monitor for just $70, which is 46% off the standard price. It's worth noting that this price is only available for Amazon Prime members, although non-members can still get it for $100 and save themselves $30 on the standard price, so that's not bad either.
More On The Go
What can you use this portable monitor for though? Well, you can actually use it for gaming on the go, if you fancy switching things up with your Nintendo Switch or a last-gen console. We're not expecting many people to make the most of this compatibility, but it's a nice bonus for a lot of us who might want to set things up a little bit differently at home, especially as you can even use this with a Wii for some retro gaming.
For most people, the compatibility win here is that it can work not only with phones, but also with desktop PCs and laptops as well. This means that you can show off bits of work more easily, or just enjoy a better streaming experience on the 15.6-inch 1080P monitor. Sometimes it's nice to not have to sit with your phone in your hand, and this monitor lets you do so.
Laptops and PCs can both benefit too, because sometimes you just need a second monitor here and there, and not permanently. It means you can bring up an important report, spreadsheet, or basically anything else on the portable monitor, while still working on your main one.
This monitor normally costs $130, but this deal means you can save $60 on that price, which is great. We're not sure how long the deal will last though, so if you do decide to pick this up, we recommend it be sooner rather than later to avoid missing out on this excellent saving.

The board decision that sent the MLB, NFL unions into controversy

Last June, eight members of the board of directors for a licensing group called OneTeam Partners, which is co-owned by the players unions for five major sports leagues, signed a resolution that would have included the member unions in a plan to receive 'profits units.' Those units, like traditional equity, could be turned into cash if the company did well. It was a move that raised alarms within at least one of the unions. Advertisement By late 2024, an official at the National Football League Players Association had repeatedly raised concerns that implementing the plan could mean that labor officials serving on OneTeam's board of directors — including the head of the NFL players union, Lloyd Howell Jr., and the leader of the Major League Baseball players union, Tony Clark — were attempting to make a change that could lead to their own financial gain, potentially at the expense of union members. The resolution, which was obtained by The Athletic, called for any eventual payouts — made through what is known as a senior employee incentive plan (SEIP) — to go to the unions the board members hail from. The resolution also directly acknowledged the possibility that the unions could then grant that money to their board members. 'The explicit goal throughout the process was to financially enrich the individuals who serve on the OTP Board as labor organization representatives,' the NFLPA official wrote to lawyers in a communication criticizing the plan, which was reviewed by The Athletic. '… the idea was to pay the money into the unions, then the individuals.' In a statement to The Athletic, OneTeam said that though the plan was considered, it was ultimately abandoned. Advertisement 'In early 2024, OneTeam initiated an exploratory review to determine whether the company could lawfully offer incentive-based compensation to current and prospective Board members,' OneTeam Partners said. 'This exploratory effort was part of a broader initiative to assess strategies for attracting high-caliber, independent talent. 'Following the legal advice of a labor law expert, it was determined that the best practice, if implemented, was to make grants to the respective players associations. In so doing, any future payments would be governed by each union's player-approved bylaws, policy, and governance frameworks. It added: 'To be unequivocally clear: no OneTeam board member, nor any union employee, was directly or indirectly granted equity in OneTeam, holds equity in OneTeam or is a participant in its SEIP and any claim to the contrary is simply misinformed and false.' Federal authorities are conducting an investigation related to OneTeam Partners and union officials. The full scope of the probe, which is being run out of the Eastern District of New York, is unclear. The Eastern District of New York declined to comment. Advertisement Five major sports unions hold stakes in OneTeam, the two largest belonging to the NFLPA and the Major League Baseball Players Association, which together own two-thirds of the company, according to people briefed on the business structure who requested anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly. The NFLPA has 44 percent, the MLBPA 22 percent. The unions representing players in Major League Soccer, the U.S. Women's National Soccer Team and the Women's National Basketball Association own much smaller shares in OneTeam: 3.3 percent for MLS, .3 percent for the USWNTPA, and .2 percent for the WNBA, according to one of the people briefed on the structure. Early this month, the FBI started calling MLB and NFL players or their representatives. Prosecutor David Berman is heading the federal investigation, said people briefed on its process who were not authorized to speak publicly. With a federal investigation underway, the NFLPA has retained outside counsel separate from the outside lawyers retained by its executive director, Howell. Howell's lawyer did not reply to requests for comment. 'We're guided by our responsibility to our members in everything we do and we will continue to fully cooperate with the investigation,' the NFLPA said in a statement to The Athletic. Advertisement The MLBPA declined to comment Friday. That union too has retained outside counsel separate from its leader, Clark. His attorney did not return requests for comment. The NFLPA official who voiced concern about the incentive plan wrote that they were concerned about the potential for various conflicts of interest. The official argued internally that the change to the plan could dilute the players' existing stakes, which they held via their unions. The official also questioned whether the players were informed of how their financial interests might be affected. The NFLPA official's email with lawyers shows talk of changing OneTeam's SEIP dated to 2023, when a new CEO took over. In March 2024, OneTeam asked outside counsel whether there would be any issues granting union officials on its board participation in a SEIP, according to the same email. In response, the official wrote, the law firm flagged concerns regarding the National Labor Relations Act were any units to be granted directly to union board members. Plans like SEIP are common in the business world. Companies use them to reward and lure top leaders, and the programs often grant traditional shares in a company. Private companies in particular will often grant something that operates similarly to shares but is not traditional equity, according to Chris Crawford, managing director for the executive compensation practice at the firm Gallagher. Advertisement 'It's not a publicly traded, readily tradable environment,' Crawford said. 'It gets into these third-party transactions that get a little bit messy. The most common is by a generic term called 'phantom stock.'' Hence OneTeam's use of 'profits units.' But ultimately, OneTeam is not a common business because it is largely owned by unions. Union officials have legal obligations to their members and their members' interests, and most unions don't have for-profit arms with the overlay of those governance concerns. 'The labor organizations' representatives on the OTP Board are there as FIDUCIARIES representing their union members' direct ownership interests in the Company — their legal duties are not to the Company generally, but rather their union members' ownership in the company,' the NFLPA official wrote in the email to lawyers. Advertisement The union officials have their positions on OneTeam's board because of their union roles, positions for which they are already compensated. Howell was paid $3.6 million by the NFLPA for the 12 months from March 2024 through February 2025, according to the union's annual disclosure filed with the Department of Labor. Clark was paid $3.5 million for the 2024 calendar year, per the baseball union's filing. The NFLPA has four seats on OneTeam's board, and the MLBPA has three seats. Both Howell's and Clark's signatures appear on the resolution to change OneTeam's senior employee incentive plan. The unions representing players in MLS, the USWNT and the WNBA share one seat on the board that rotates. Only the signature of Becca Roux, the head of the USWNTPA, appears on the resolution from last year. Roux, as well as Bob Foose, head of the MLSPA, and Terri Jackson, head of the WNBPA, have hired Steve McCool of McGuireWoods as outside counsel. Advertisement 'I notified the prosecutor in New York that I represent a number of OTP board members,' McCool said by phone Friday. 'My clients have no cause for concern and they are available to answer any questions the government may have about this matter.' Outside investors own the remaining 30 percent of OneTeam that is not owned by unions. The SEIP resolution called for the NFLPA to receive 44 percent of the new plan units available to the board, and the MLBPA 33 percent. The other three unions were in line to receive 3.7 percent each. The outside investors on the board were not going to receive any new incentive units, the resolution said. Such an arrangement has the potential to create at least the appearance of a conflict of interest, according to Lee Adler, a labor lawyer with no involvement in the matter who has long worked as counsel to unions. Advertisement 'Is there something in that set of criteria for the incentive that might have some influence on how or what the union officials who sit on the board actually end up … legislating (at OneTeam)?' asked Adler, a lecturer at the Cornell University School of Industrial and Labor Relations. NFLPA employees said at a meeting in November 2024 that they expected payments via SEIP would be $200,000 to $300,000, the NFLPA official wrote in the email. Sports unions have moved aggressively to capitalize on their players' branding rights. The MLBPA and NFLPA were among the founders of OneTeam in 2019. Both unions already had for-profit arms that handled licensing business, and those arms still exist today. But they were betting that a company with aggregated rights would have greater leverage. The venture has been a boon not only for the unions but also for the private equity investors who partnered with them. RedBird Capital cashed out its 40 percent stake in 2022, when the company had a $1.9 billion valuation. The windfalls from name, image and licensing rights carry a slew of gains for athletes, including bolstering traditional labor objectives like collective bargaining. The NFLPA reported about $101 million in revenue from OneTeam from early 2024 into 2025, and the MLBPA about $45 million for 2024. But both the baseball and football unions have been wrapped up in public controversy this year over, in part, OneTeam. Advertisement Late last year, an anonymous complaint filed with the National Labor Relations Board levied allegations at Clark, including concerns over equity from OneTeam. The football union, where internal complaints had already been lodged, then brought on an outside firm, Linklaters, to conduct a review. The NFLPA has not publicized that firm's findings. But in March, in an email reviewed by , Howell notified OneTeam's board of directors that Linklaters found the NFLPA and OneTeam had been in compliance.

Chime versus SoFi: Which Is the Better Fintech Stock Right Now?

Chime operates an online banking platform that is similar to SoFi. SoFi is acquiring new members, increasing revenue, and accelerating profit at a pace superior to the competition. 10 stocks we like better than SoFi Technologies › It's been a hot couple of weeks for the fintech sector. Digital banking platform (NASDAQ: CHYM) and stablecoin operator Circle (NYSE: CRCL) both completed initial public offerings (IPOs) in which shares of both companies soared. While artificial intelligence (AI) is still the biggest megatrend fueling the stock market right now, the back-to-back IPOs from Circle and Chime have brought some renewed interest to the financial services arena. Given the overlapping business models of Chime and SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ: SOFI), another budding neobank, investors may be wondering which stock is the better buy right now. Let's assess Chime and SoFi from both an operational and valuation perspective. After doing so, I think smart investors will be able to determine a clear winner between the two digital banking platforms. SoFi offers many of the same financial services products that you may see at traditional banks. By offering lending, insurance, and investment management, SoFi has proven that it can compete with legacy banking providers by offering a similar, diversified portfolio of products. The main differentiator between SoFi and most of its competitors is that the company operates entirely online and lacks physical brick-and-mortar infrastructure. By creating a one-stop shop for financial services, SoFi is offering a level of convenience that is hard to match. In turn, SoFi is not only able to keep its customers loyal to the platform, but also has leveraged its comprehensive ecosystem by cross-selling additional services to existing members. SoFi refers to this strategy as its financial services productivity loop -- essentially building a model in which the lifetime value of customers increases over time, ultimately creating a competitive advantage over incumbent providers. At the end of the first quarter, SoFi boasted 10.9 million customers on its platform that use a total of 15.9 million products. This implies that each user in SoFi's network is using 1.4 products on average. As the chart above illustrates, SoFi's business model is paying off in spades, underscored by accelerating revenue growth and a transition to consistent profitability. While SoFi's business is rocking, Chime doesn't appear too far behind. In the table below, I've summarized a number of financial metrics and key performance indicators for SoFi and Chime. Category SoFi Chime Revenue -- Trailing 12-month ($) $2.8 billion $1.8 billion Members 10.9 million 8.6 million 3-year membership compound annual growth rate (CAGR) 41.3% 22.3% Net income (Trailing 12-Months) $482 million ($28.3) million Market capitalization (as of June 18) $17 billion $10.6 billion Data source: SoFi Investor Relations and Chime S-1 Filing. The obvious takeaway from the figures above is that SoFi is a larger business than Chime in terms of revenue. This is not entirely surprising, given that SoFi's platform boasts more than 2 million more members than Chime. The more subtle factor that I'd like to point out is that SoFi is far more profitable than Chime. Perhaps the biggest contributor to SoFi's profitability profile is the rate at which it is acquiring new members relative to the competition. Per the table above, SoFi's three-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for user acquisition is almost double that of Chime's. By onboarding more users, SoFi has been able to more quickly monetize these members and command superior unit economics compared to its peers. While Chime's growth is impressive, the company lags behind SoFi on a number of critical metrics. While I suspect that Chime may see a brief uptick in its operations thanks to the notoriety that came with the IPO, I question if the company will ever eclipse SoFi's size. Although SoFi is a bit pricey compared to traditional bank and financial services stocks based on its price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio, I think the shares deserve a premium due to the company's technology-first platform. I see SoFi growing into its valuation thanks to future earnings growth. If I had to choose between the two digital bank stocks explored here, I'd pick SoFi without thinking twice.
