Enhanced 5 inch 800480 Resistive Touch Screen for Raspberry Pi: HDMI Interface, Raspbian Compatible, Ideal Video & Photo Display Module by XYGStudy Review

Poor quality. I do not recommend this screen. I sent mine back as soon as I opened the box and saw it. Spend a little more money and buy the official version of the Pi. It's worth it. I can't say if it worked and I didn't want to risk trying it and losing my money.

Works great on Windows 10 IoT on RP2 B with HDMI input. I haven't tried the 26-pin GPIO header yet. Just had to make a few minor changes to the config.txt. I also rotated the screen 90 degrees clockwise, no problem. Haven't tried to get the touch to work yet. Several lines of the default Win IoT splash screen are cropped, which is to be expected since this is a static layout - there is no scaling on this display. Mounting holes: 115x84mm. smaller than the width. Here are the 3 lines I added to…

This is an easy to use screen. Connect your Raspberry Pi to the screen using the I/O pins, then plug in the HDMI connector. At first I was concerned because as others have said I was getting weird vertical lines on the right side of the screen. I was able to fix this by adding the following lines to the end of the /boot/config.txt file. After adding lines and reloading, the video filled the screen and looked great.

Works well with Raspberry Pi 3. At first I had a problem with the touch screen. I used to have kernel panics. But I solved it by editing the cmdline.txt file before rebooting. For screen resolution, just follow the instructions to change /boot/config.txt. Once installed, do not use the sudo ./lcd-show command (otherwise you will get a kernel panic), just go to /home/pi/Downloads/LCD-show or any other location of your file. Open this folder and edit the cmdline.txt file. from…

For anyone wondering: yes, this screen works with Windows 10 iot (I have build 10075) on Raspberry Pi 2. By default you get the Permission 640x480 and the touch surface is not responding. However, full resolution and touchscreen access can be achieved with a little programming. I connected the screen directly to the port on the Pi and used the HDMI connector that came with it.

Great little display. You should be aware that some of the standard X desktop applications on the Raspberry Pi take up more memory than what is provided, causing them to crash. Also, developing on the Raspberry Pi requires good eyesight as the characters are legible but small. I'm using this to show status for a personal project, it's perfect.

The HDMI connector is very smart - no cable, just a clean and compact 180-degree connection. I get a strange white column to the right of the screen in terminal mode, but I don't have any drivers or libraries installed for the screen. It doesn't affect performance and I don't use it for touchscreens. The resolution is very good - the text is almost too small to read, so I'm looking for a way to increase the font size.

High quality screen. I hooked it up to my PS3 and it worked like a dream given the band of multicolored lines down the right side of the screen, but that's probably due to the PS3's limited aspect ratio settings.
