Review on πŸ‘† ELECROW 7-inch Raspberry Display with 1024x600 Resolution, Touchscreen, Portable, HDMI and HD Support (Product Code: 6453681) by Brian Connelly

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Requires setup on another monitor to use the Pi.

I bought it to use with a Raspberry Pi 3 and an RTL-SDR-HAM radio dongle. A nice little tweak and it works. However, you will need to connect the Pi 3 to another HDMI-capable monitor in order to edit the Pi's configuration file to support using that display. It's counterintuitive at first, but Google has all the answers, and this issue isn't the display manufacturer's fault. I'll get some more for other projects. After the initial setup on a different monitor, everything works as expected.

Pros
  • PC Extension Screen or others---can be used as a universal 7 inch HDMI screen, connected to your TV box, game console, or installed in your PC case as a temperature statistics display, etc.
Cons
  • Complex setup
