Those screens are low resolution anyway. They're fine if you're just playing videogames, but even then they're just really low quality. There are good $25 5V screens with double that resolution that I'd highly recommend you use instead.
You can get them even cheaper on Aliexpress. I paid $20 for one, shipped.
Looks like this UCTRONICS 3.5 Inch HDMI TFT LCD Display - I've purchased a couple - work pretty nice. The pass-thru HDMI connection means it doesn't quite fit the "average" case design.
Thanks! I'm using this display: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076M399XX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
And a Raspberry Pi 3 B+, there are many bundles, I'm using a 32GB micro SD Card but a 16GB should be fine
To setup your Raspberry Pi I recommend this tutorial https://thisdavej.com/beginners-guide-to-installing-node-js-on-a-raspberry-pi/ (setting it up is really simple, but this link goes through a lot, like remote access and installing Node.js)
​
The Magic Mirror is also really simple, their official website is https://magicmirror.builders/, but this tutorial is really great, he shows how to setup your Calendar, Spotify, turn the screen, etc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HO326ptdlco

I built one with a dmg01 and used a screen similar to this one - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076M399XX/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_RPrIAbQM3H4FX
The HDMI was a bit overkill but there is zero lag compaired to the ones that run over gpio.
Honestly, if you are not running n64 or ps games, use a pi zero. Pi3 is way too big. I had to desolder all usb ports and Ethernet jack, what a nightmare.
As for the battery, get as much capacity as you can fit. For charging, the powerboost 1000c ( I think?) From adafruit works well for pi zero, wont quite cut it for pi3 though.
