Just a question on my mind

The only issue I had was that one of the posts that came with it was unthreaded on the inside. In addition, it is exactly what is advertised, excellent quality.

Smart Display: my review

I wanted a small touch display for my Raspberry Pi 4. I looked through the different displays available, read the reviews and settled on this one. The kit included cables, speakers, connectors, screws and feet. The Pi 4 mounts easily with standoffs and screws on the back, HDMI and USB connect directly to the screen with corner components. The legs are screwed to the screen with two screws, but weren't. The instructions suggest downloading a number of programs, but all that is required is the…

  • Bad built-in speakers.

I wanted a 7 inch monitor for use with a Raspberry Pi 3B that would allow me to mount my Raspberry Pi on the back. The monitor arrived on time and was very easy to set up. The output from my Raspberry Pi filled the screen perfectly. The resolution is excellent. It comes with legs so the monitor stands on its own. This is a great monitor for the price. My monitor came with Raspberry Pi 4B headers, so I couldn't mount it on the back of the monitor. But it had the cables needed to plug it in and…

Don't buy on my review.

I received it but I also used it but it is very fragile. Get one with a case if you don't have it sealed in one place. I asked if they sell it with a case and they didn't. I also tried exchanging it for another one, nothing. Just don't give them your business.

Perfect display is the best in my rating

I use this as a mini display in my computer and I really like it. I can only recommend it, the display looks great. That's my feedback.

The touch doesn't work properly.

Too small for anything other than six monitors. Touch control schemes, overflows, etc. did not allow switching touch from the main monitor to this one.

  • Bad picture quality

The screen doesn't turn off on the PC like the 5" version I have, so it has to be turned off manually every time you put the computer to sleep, very annoying once you get used to that it turns itself off. also difficult to install on a PC case where you need access to turn it off

All problems have been solved.

By default, my display's HDMI audio was not working. Elecrow walked me through the 4 steps to solve the problem. Step 1: Suggest the most common solution (dtoverlay). Step 2. Suggest the second most common solution (HDMI drive). Step 3 Check the entire config.txt file. Step 4. Ask me to check the hardware volume control. When none of them solved the problem, they speeded me up with a new display. Nice that I didn't have to send in the defective display. Elecrow doesn't get 5 stars due to a…

It's alright, I think, in my mind

I was very excited when this arrived, plugged it into my Pi 4, initially installed 64-bit Raspbian (Pi OS) and the screen said 'not supported' so I was like 'ok sure that 32-bit -Raspbian will work, right? I mean, at least it's advertised." Well, I flashed my SD card with 32-bit Raspbian (Pi OS) and got a solid black screen, only this time the screen started flickering constantly during boot and never showed me an image. So at this point I was at odds. I decided to try Lineage OS 18.1 to run…

Good screen, great service

I ordered this screen to create a compact Raspberry PI setup. It does just that. The RaspPI attaches directly to the back of the screen and interacts very compactly with the included adapter. I wanted to be able to use either PI 3 or 4. The device comes with adapters to connect directly to 4, but you can request adapters for PI 3 for free. I did and they were delivered in no time. . All communication with them was answered very quickly and courteously. I recommend this device.

What are the disadvantages of ELECROW 7" Portable Raspberry Touchscreen - CapACitIve, 1024X600 Resolution?
  • Nothing at all

I use it as a third display on my desktop to show my communications software for work and this small screen is perfect for that as I can just tap and connect to what I want and also focus on my other screens. I love this skill so much that I use it in some of my games as well as in the video production that I do. The only downside is that sometimes my computer doesn't recognize the touch aspect when the device is plugged in and turned on in front of the PC. It's just a minor thing and it all…
