Review on πŸ“Ί 2.7inch E-Ink Display HAT E-Paper Screen LCD Module 264x176 Resolution SPI Interface for Raspberry Pi/Arduino/STM32/Jetson Nano, with Embedded Controller by Bill Dahl

Revainrating 5 out of 5

7.5 inch black and white screen

This display is good and the code example was enough to get you started fairly quickly. But with the Raspberry Pi Zero W, it takes about 35 seconds to refresh the screen. 30 to press the image button, then about 5 to actually refresh, at which point it flashes in reverse video for a moment. I wouldn't recommend this for something live or constantly updated. Support told me it should be faster from 3B+, but I haven't tested it.

Pros
  • Excellently done
Cons
  • disappears
