I haven't seen a inflight entertainment console in a few years of flying. There's a trend for some carriers in the US to remove them since most passengers would rather use their own tablet, phone, or laptop with much higher quality; and the carrier can sell them wifi.

I've recently been on a plane which had some kind of small phone/tablet mount on the back of the headrests so that you could actually pull it down and put your phone/tablet on it to watch a movie. Great UX, because everybody is on their own devices all the time anyway.
