Review on πŸ–₯️ Raspberry Pi 3B+ TFT LCD Display, 3.5 Inch 480x320 TFT Touch Screen Monitor for Raspberry Pi Model B A+ with SPI Interface & Touch Pen SC06 by Marcus Zimmerly

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Favorite Pi accessory that cost me more money

This touchscreen is great, it makes my Raspberry Pi so much more convenient to use as I don't have to walk around the TV to see what's going on is. what I wish I had known before I bought it. 1) Downloading software to get it working is a pain and never switch it to HDMI output after you've downloaded everything or you'll have to start over. I've found this to be a simple solution using two micro card SD. one is formatted for touchscreen and the other for HDMI output if you just need a bigger screen. 2) Get a case with a screen, not having a case for that screen will strain your output pins, I've found out and now if I try to find a case that fits the screen it's going to be double the price I just bought it with a screen. 3) something obvious but what you might not think of is that it occupies your output pins, of course i know but it limits what you can do with your pi 4) if you are a new pi user this screen is with WiFi much better Just make sure your Pi has internet for the projects you will be using it for
