Review on Kuman Inch Touch Screen Case by Ronnie Polk

Revainrating 4 out of 5

This baby is no good

Assembled for the first time and one of the acrylic sides was broken and Amazon sent a replacement. Picked up again without any problems. The case doesn't seem strong to me. I pick up the Pi and hear the acrylic slide a little, which is disconcerting. There are no written instructions on the case or where the thermal synchronizers should go. Nevertheless, thermal clocks are simply uncoated metal (except for glue) that can be placed between CPUs/CPU and metal. Also, one of the thermal syncs would have prevented the shield from fitting all the way into the contacts. It does NOT come with a screen mount/pad like Pi 4's other kit. While the screen works well and is responsive to touch, I don't think I would happily recommend this kit.

Pros
  • Excellent construction
Cons
  • Repair
