Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The resolution is good for a 800x480 screen. The non-hd resolution of 800x400 actually works well with raspberry pi.

Hmtech 7 inch display works as intended with high resolution and best of all it is touchscreen. It's one fancy trick is that it is a 5 point (capacitive) touch monitor. Touchscreen is very responsive.

It is very small, but that makes it suited for spaces that a full size monitor wouldn't work. The screen is just enough to accomplish tasks i need to do but not huge to take up much space. This screen is the right size for a raspberry pi, and can be e...  Read More

0 power, i personally used for my wii to make it more portable (stuck it to it with command strips).

Price


I love how inexpensive and simple it was to add a small monitor to my set up.


Well worth the price compared to others


It's not a high resolution screen by any means, but if you need a small screen that get the basic job done, for low cost, this is the one


Pretty good for a price, hdmi cable is monstrous though.

Packaging/appearance


It came very well packaged and with all accessories you would need to get it working out of the box.


After i unboxed the display, i connected the included usb-c cable to a power source, and connected the included hdmi cable to t...  Read More

Competitiveness


Examples:i have a headless server and rather than rdp, kvm, or a full screen and keyboard to debug, i just have a wireless keyb...  Read More
