Review on πŸ“Ί Kuman 5 Inch Resistive Touch Screen with Protective Case for Raspberry Pi 3B+/3B - 800x480 HDMI TFT LCD Display Module (RPi 2 Model B, RPi 1 B, B+, A, A+ Compatible) SC5AC by Juan Wilson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great little screen for Raspberry Pi

I ordered this to build a mobile pentest device using ARM Kali on Pi 3b+. For this build, the screen was ready to use. You can get a video just by putting the screen and body together, but it needs some tweaking to make it look pretty. Pros: The display is pretty good, I'm very happy with the quality and resolution. Screen case and pi 3b+ Being able to use the screen on other devices is nice. Adjusting the settings is easy if you have Linux/pi experience. Cons: The assembly instructions are rubbish! Assembling the case requires a little study and trial and error. The configuration files and driver processes listed in the quick start corrupt the ARM Kali 2/2020 image. There is no overlay for the kalipi-tft-config file (both Kuman and Kali are responsible for this problem) The 5 inch screen consumes a lot of power. I will add an improved power supply, but for a battery powered device you may get a voltage limit. Overall I'm very happy with the display and will most likely order another one. Once the first case is built the next should be a lot easier. It's good value for money and I would rate it 4.5 stars out of 5 if that was an option. Make sure you accept the configuration. txt mentioned in question and answer and update
