Review: Ideal project screen - Great little screen for Raspberry Pi projects. See pics of miniature Apple Mac and ISS above projects. (my 3D printed enclosures) Excellent colours on the screens and pretty easy to configure on the Pi following Waveshare's instructions. I may try making a miniature Arcade machine, although at my age it may prove difficult to play on a screen this small. I haven't tried to configure the touch element yet, although the Pi does respond with a complaint if I do touch the screen!
Review: Bought this to follow This Does Not Compute's tutorial on how to build a Mini Mac from the Maclock. Haven't gotten time to do the soldering, but I did install the 3D printed bracket along with the Raspberry Pi Zero with minivmac running just to show off some After Dark screensavers. The screen itself is working wonderfully and had detailed instructions and drivers on their website. I am surprised with the detail from the screen as screen technology has improved in the past 10 years. Highly recommend for Rapsberry Pi Zero 2W

I installed this in a pinball machine, showing video on theme with the game. The result is incredibly clear and bright! See "Dave's Think Tank" on YouTube for complete instructions.
