Review on πŸ–₯️ High Resolution 4inch Raspberry Pi HDMI LCD Display with Touchscreen & Wide Compatibility by Sean Maile

Revainrating 5 out of 5

All is well: Motherboards

Good product, reasonable price. The drivers are easy to install and the touchscreen works. The props for a resistive screen are much more precise than those for a capacitive screen, and most projects don't require multi-touch. A couple of minor things: many of the pins in the screen header are unused (NC) and there are quite a few ground pins you only need 1-2. From the 26 pin shield connector I only used 11-12 gpio wires. It would be much better if only used pins had a title as the full unused pins will block. Maybe let people connect the plug themselves. Another small issue: after a power outage, the screen defaults to the preset brightness, which is pretty bright. I haven't tested the audio splitting from the HDMI channel yet. crossed fingers
