Review on UCTRONICS Raspberry 1024×600 Capacitive Touchscreen 7", Portable, HDMI, HD by Justin Hendricks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A good octoscreen/pi4 compatible screen is worth the effort!

Very good screen but trouble setting up with Raspberry Pi and Octoscreen. After a few hours of fiddling, everything worked. Only works on the micro HDMI closest to the power jack on the pi4. I hit my head briefly. The only complaint I have is that the button that rotates the screen 180 degrees is broken. This isn't a deal breaker though, I can still get it to work by connecting two wires together. One nice thing is that thingiverse has a case/stand design that I was able to modify fairly easily to mount on my device. Control unit :) Super cool addition for 3D printers. I'm glad I chose the 7 inch screen.

Pros
  • HDMI
Cons
  • Dead Pixels: These are defective pixels that remain black or glow solid on the display.
