Every year, families forget the same dates, a birthday passes by, and an anniversary card is bought two days late. Three phones and a scrap of paper attached to the refrigerator are used to keep holiday shopping lists. Dragon Touch’s 15.6-inch TM15 digital calendar, priced at $149.99 (was $160), is a plug-in device that sits on the same wall or counter, keeping everything in one place and visible from across the room.
A 1920 x 1080 IPS display dominates the device’s front panel. You simply tap out events on the glass, assign a color to each person, and watch the week develop before you. Simply plug it into the wall, link it to your WiFi network, and launch the free eCalendar app on your phone. You can then connect your Google, Apple, Outlook, Yahoo, and Cozi calendars to the display, and any events you create on the screen will sync back to those accounts. Dual-band WiFi maintains a stable connection even in locations with high wireless traffic. Inside, you’ll find 32GB of storage, a decent quad-core ARM chip, 2GB of RAM to keep things running smoothly, a light sensor that dims the panel when it gets dark, sleep modes you can tailor to your needs, local weather updates, and a tiny speaker for reminders or short videos you can send to the display via your phone.

Since there’s no internal battery, it must be plugged in at all times, thus keep the wall socket close by. The packaging includes a desk stand and hanging gear for mounting the display on your wall, and the screen can swivel between portrait and landscape mode if you want. According to testers, the device weighs between three and four pounds and measures approximately 16 inches tall by 10 inches wide, making it slim enough to hang without hogging your kitchen. In terms of software, it runs a locked-down version of Android 8.1, and you won’t be able to install any additional apps from the store. You will work within Dragon Touch’s existing calendar, chores, food planning, task lists, and photo tabs.
The chores page allows you to list all of the jobs that need to be done, and the kids can check them off as they finish to earn points that you can then redeem for a gift of your choice. Meals now has its own page, allowing you to see what’s cooking for the week and making the everyday “what’s for dinner?” inquiry much less unpleasant. Your to-do and grocery lists replace the traditional sticky notes, and when nobody is messing with the screen, the device shows a slideshow of your favorite images. You can add events and lists directly to the device or from your phone anywhere. The essential tools are free of charge on a monthly basis, but if you want additional features, you can subscribe to Magic Import.
