Review on πŸ“Ί Waveshare 1.3Inch OLED Display HAT Compatible with Jetson Nano, Raspberry Pi 3B/3B/2B/Zero/Zero W/Zero WH, 128X64 Pixels Screen with Embedded Controller, SPI or I2C Interface, 1.3 Inch, LED Supported by Spencer Kuai

Very fragile, missing software

The display is very fragile and when mounted as a hat there isn't much to grab hold of. I shattered the glass trying to press it against the board. The datasheet says the controller supports 4 colors and 64 levels of brightness for each color, but the attached code doesn't provide any examples of this, only black and white. I'm not sure if the display itself supports multicolor or not. Other panels using this controller support white, yellow, blue and black. The data sheet also mentions other features that don't have examples in the software, such as "Dark Mode" and "Low Power Mode". It would be nice to have examples of them. Overall, this is a good little display.
