It’s a nice screen and good price. At first, I couldn’t get touch to work with my pi3 but I finally figured it out.I had to do the thing where you comment out (add a # at the beginning of the line) dtoverlay = VC4-KMS-V3D in /boot/config.txt this is mentioned as helpful for the pi4 but it is what you need for the 3 to do touch. I also had a great support experience. sent in a request for assistance through amazon’s support thing. Right after that, I actually figured it out before they had a chance to respond. However, they responded in less than 30 minutes from when I sent the request for help. We had a nice chat, and they were very knowledgeable.

While the written instructions for this product did not instill great confidence that I would end up with a working, functional project, that was not the case at all.I built a small photo booth for my wedding using a Raspberry Pi 4, Pi Camera, small SSD drive, arcade buttons and a custom built enclosure with this Touch Panel display.The resolution was not really the most impressive, but served the purpose of the project. It was able to display general instructions, mirrored camera feedback, and show a composite image to the user.It was a big hit with the kids, and many adults used it as well.I’m not so sure this would make for a good detail oriented display for general computer work. My fingers felt a bit large for moving around the Raspbian OS Interface, and I’m sure that is why the stylus was included.I’m quite pleased with the integration of this product with my project, and I intend on reworking into another project for use around the home.

Having purchased other displays of this type for pi4 devices , this is hands down the best in terms of integration of the display with the pi. The small adaptor boards are a great value add and sets this offering apart from others. Even the quality of the stand components is better than others.A word of warning however : beware of cold solder joints on the adaptor connectors. The force to insert the adaptor pins is significant , and can pop the connectors off the display board.The USB power connections at the display edge are very susceptable to coming loose from the display card because of stresses from the power cable.Knowing that , I chose an alternate means of powering the display (don’t worry the cable is supplied).I even used the unused slot in the stand to provide a strain relief for the power cord.Maybe I have not found the feature yet – so far I have not found on screen menu the display. Also will be looking for a popup on screen keyboard package — that is a best option for touch systems.Recommend!

After trying multiple (frustrating) ways of setting up my ‘Raspberry 4 pi’ with a screen for my 3D printer from different manufacturers I almost gave up due to them needing me to download their version of Octiprint as well as their firmware….Well not going to happen.I did some more digging and found this screen. To my surprise, it was stated on their website that they do not require you to download anything from them to get their hardware to work with the Raspberry 4 pi (unlike many others). Well I bought one, did my thing and gave it a try. Octiprint loaded without issue and works awesome, it is wired thru my Ethernet, and works as advertised, touch screen and all.In my opinion this is one of the best ways to go. Don’t trust those who want you to download their version of someone else’s firmware.

I am brand new to the raspberry world and this is not (at least for me) a simple plug in and play. However, i reached out to their email that is written in the instructions and they were able to help me out. They responded immediately and after about 4 emails i was up and runningThe downsidethe instructions do have much more than just plug it in and you good!I have the raspberry pi4b and i just downloaded the OS right off of their website nothing fancy. which means i am using Bullseye. <- a version of the OS i think.... This is important for you to know because you may have something different and you may run into different issues.The upsideIf your setup is identical to mine then you in good hands because i have the cheat code.After you download the boot file for your raspberry go into the folder that is labeled config.txt. open it up. email the support email that is on the packaging and ask for the file (or somehow find it on the internet) that is labeled config_DSI.txt and replace the content in config.txt.what i mean is to go to the original file config.txt and open it. delete all content inside of the file. dont change the name. i dont know what happens if you, maybe nothing, do but i didn't because i was afraid. copy the information from the file they provide config_DSI.txt and paste it into the file config.txt. save and eject. plug it into the raspberry and you should be good to go

I am trying to minimize my QSO profile and this screen fit the bill. If I can add one thing, be careful of your connections once you mount your Raspberry Pi 4b to the back. The ethernet connection, for home use, is a little difficult to unplug. Also, you might want to consider purchasing angled connectors for what ever your going to hook up to the Pi. Great looking picture though. You can either download a 3d print file to print your own case or buy one when you order from amazon. Works right out of the box. Really handy monitor

The screen quality is fantastic for the price. You won’t be able to find a nicer ready-to-use touch screen for less. It’s well designed for any RPi application where a touch screen is desirable. The only “issue” I found was that the audio quality isn’t exactly amazing. It’s certainly audible in household noise, at least, but you could just as easily not connect the speakers if you wanted your sound output elsewhere. The best part is the clean connections, as you don’t need to have USB or HDMI cables sticking out the side to work. The Pi mounts cleanly to the back, and they provide two different-length FFC display cables if you plan to mount something between the screen and Pi. The ports on the side of the display are strictly for external connections like power. The 40-pin header is still free for any other connections you would want to add, too. Not sure if the DB9 connector is useful to most people, but it’s certainly not costing you extra, given everything else about this display. Would recommend!

Difficult to sync when using two monitors, one HDMI and this one DSI.Using the Raspberry Sync screen app still not getting good results, sound is not as good as you expect.Overall is a good product for the money, and the RS232 485 option is a good add-on.

This is a nice display with a smart interface for connecting it to the Raspberry Pi. Connectors were included for both the model 3 and 4, which is nice in case I every get an RPi 4 in the future. Everything connected and worked perfectly out of the box, and it even came with a nice magnetic screwdriver for installing the Pi to the backboard. I like this design especially because it is able to connect without using up the HDMI port (uses display ribbon) nor GPIO pins (uses USB port for touch input). Model works well, and my only suggestion would be to update the VGA port to an HDMI port in case the monitor is used with a modern PC later instead of a Raspberry Pi, but not an issue for me since I plan on using it exclusively for the Pi.I also like the tiny bag of screws that they sent.

When installing you dont have to follow all of the instructions. The instructions cintain steps that only apply if you are using certain hardware, or adding a serial connection etc.Tips.the screw holes are covered up with an amber plastic, peal that off to access the threaded screw holes.You can mount the screen to the brackets either at a 45 ish or 90 degree angle.You keep the pi screwed onto the back of the screen, the display cable will block your micro sd card in.To install the ribbon cable from the display to the pi you will have to lift up on the little gray bar to open the ribbon slot, insert the ribbon cable then push the bar down to lock the ribbon in place.This comes with extra parts, just use what you need.The rubber duck capsizes easily and cant be relied on (the kit comes with a little rubber duck).
