Review on Treedix 3 5Inch Resolution Compatible Raspberry by Brandon Barrett

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works well. Runs dual monitors on RPi 4. Backlight always on

This is a good product but it could be a little better for another star. It was easy to install and the frame rate is very good. I can even watch videos. There is very little flicker. I can run this with dual monitors, although I couldn't get it to work in extended desktop mode. This is normal because when I develop touchscreen GUI applications I want to write code with a large monitor. When I'm using dual screens I'm using 1080p and the small touchscreen shows a tiny image of my big screen, so that's nice. . I switch to low res to see what the app actually looks like on a small touchscreen. Everything is working well. A moment confuses me. There's no way to turn this thing off. When you turn off the Pi, the touchscreen turns bright white. The only way I've found to get around this is to unplug it. It's not that pretty.

Pros
  • Single board computer
Cons
  • Minor issues
