Ideal project screen
Great little screen for Raspberry Pi projects. See pics of miniature Apple Mac and ISS above projects. (my 3D printed enclosures) Excellent colours on the screens and pretty easy to configure on the Pi following Waveshare's instructions. I may try making a miniature Arcade machine, although at my age it may prove difficult to play on a screen this small. I haven't tried to configure the touch element yet, although the Pi does respond with a complaint if I do touch the screen!

Bought this to follow This Does Not Compute's tutorial on how to build a Mini Mac from the Maclock. Haven't gotten time to do the soldering, but I did install the 3D printed bracket along with the Raspberry Pi Zero with minivmac running just to show off some After Dark screensavers. The screen itself is working wonderfully and had detailed instructions and drivers on their website. I am surprised with the detail from the screen as screen technology has improved in the past 10 years. Highly recommend for Rapsberry Pi Zero 2W

I installed this in a pinball machine, showing video on theme with the game. The result is incredibly clear and bright! See "Dave's Think Tank" on YouTube for complete instructions.

Anders als bei den meisten anderen Bildschirmen für den Raspberry Pi, ist dieser hier mit einer Auflösung von 640x480 Pixeln sehr hoch aufgelöst und Dank DPI Interface auch für schnelle Bildwechsel ohne Trickserei benutzbar. Funktioniert dank hervorragender Dokumentation und Suppor vom Hersteller auch problemlos am Raspberry Pi Zero 2 mit neuem Bullseye Betriebssystem. Gut verarbeitet, schnell geliefert direkt aus China in meinem Fall - sehr zu empfehlen, wenn man damit leben kann dass der Bildschirm ein Großteil der Pins vom Raspberry benötigt.

Great video quality. Used with a Pi Zero for a tiny tv project and it turned out great.

The setup guide on Waveshare's wiki was very easy to follow. I had an issue with the rendering of some of the colors, and Waveshare's support was very quick in helping with that. Now, the display looks excellent.
