SunFounder 10.1'' IPS Display for Raspberry Pi - 10.1 Inch Portable Laptop Monitor, 1280*800 Resolution, Cooling Fan (Non-Touch)

Hands down, this display is much better than expected. Not only does it perform flawlessly, it is much stronger feeling than expected. This unit is going to be used as a digital dash on my boat. I’ve already tested in the sunlight and the display is fine. I’m going to order two more for other locations on the boat. They will be out of the weather since they are not waterproof. But if l can get a season or two, I’ll be even happier. By the way, the unit comes with all needed cables plus an AC adapter. And the HD chrome stand that it ships with is absolutely perfect for my iPad as an added bonus.

This product is better than I ever thought a small monitor would be for my Windows 10 desktop. I don't care to have 2 screens on my desk because they take up so much real estate. I had an idea to use a smaller montitor instead. I bought this little gem and it is perfect. I can use it to play videos, show my Minecraft map, show Discord, PC stats....etc on it while playing games and other things on the larger 27" monitor. I used Nvidia's control panel to my colors best I could, and it looks great. The touch screen part of it is a bonus, it works well. I accidentally found out that you can power the screen from the USB chord that's also used for the touchscreen, which eliminates a cable. For anyone wondering, it does shut off when the computer goes to sleep. The stand is adjustable, which allows you to set it up to suite your needs. Overall I'm really happy with it and definitely recommend this small monitor.

I bought this to use as an display for Moode Audio on the Raspberry Pi. There seems to be an incompatibility there that broke the touch function. It's a software thing. I've tried Volumio and the regular Pi OS and they exist happily on screen. The product copy says that no config.txt is necessary but I didn't find that true. The standard additional lines other displays recommend are necessary. Now the good part. The case is unusual at this price. You still have cables sticking out but but it doesn't look like something from a mad scientist's lab. The switch placement is convenient and the supplied stand works. The display quality is fine at 1024 X 600. I'm very pleased with it overall. I'd buy another if I needed one. One caveat. The power supply that came with it produced hum. I tried the standard ground loop elimination tactics but the only cure was a different power supply. The first one I tried from my box of wall warts eliminated the hum. If you're not using it for audio the hum is no big deal. If you don't have a box of wall warts left over from other devices you'll be more inconvenienced than I was.

i'm pretty disappointed in this product (sunfounder 10.1 inch screen for raspberry pi), due to one critical issue/component – the USB power to the raspberry pi is VERY weak and unstable (pretty much unusable), Which will lead to (even a non-loaded raspberry pi) cutting off or rebooting (in my experience, it always cut off, never rebooted, not that either is desirable. My estimation is that the USB port cannot provide more than 0.4 A at 5 V (and I'm being generous in that I think it may just be a standard USB port capable of 250 mA at 5 V) in the photos you can see that how I took my measurements and the monitor alone (without a Pi powered up) consumes about 0.4 A at 12 V, add in a raspberry pi 4 or 5, and that increases to about 0.65 A at 12 V, once you do any activity to increase the draw to 0.8 A or 0.9 A at 12 V the 5 V USB will fail and the pi will be powered off. (keep in mind. These numbers are of the 12 V power supplied to the entire unit so that also includes the 10" monitor.) this is why I had to give this 10 inch monitor one star. im well-versed in electrical engineering, and know how to properly test the available voltage / current . had this company spent anywhere from one to three dollars extra, This would be an incredible and unique product. As it stands now, it is literally nothing more than a standard commodity 10 inch monitor with mounting for a raspberry pi. I say that in the sense that you can find several 10 inch monitors which also have a USB port (usually for plugging in a thumb drive to play videos from). From my examination this 10 inch monitor is nothing more than one of those- they have taken no additional steps to increase the current that the USB port can output, this is critical/a major overlook by the manufacturer as everyone knows all generations of raspberry pi need decent power. I have tested it with a raspberry pie 4B as well as a raspberry pi 5 The included 12 V 3 amp power supply (wall wart) actually is not bad in that I was able to load test it for 12 hours pulling constant 2.4A while it was outputing at 11.7 V . The 10 inch screen actually has a pretty good picture/image, I'm quite happy with that part. in the end, as this is unfortunately the only 10 inch monitor I can find that also has built in mounts for a raspberry pi (such that only one plug is needed for the pi and the monitor) - I had to keep it and modify it, I ended up opening it up and adding in a DC to DC buck converter, 12 V to 5 V/USB-C, which I tapped off of the 12 V coming in to the monitor, as well as used a better 12 V four amp power supply). my Use case for this is a very low load application in then I'm just displaying a single , 720p at 5 fps, h264 RTSP stream, and the PIs ubuntu load average never goes above 0.2. I wish sunfounder would upgrade this model, as I would be fine, paying more for a device with a decent power supply to the raspberry pi. (or better yet a different manufacturer would bring to market the same product but with this simple and critical improvement). I would be more than happy paying an extra $20-$30 for a product that works, and sunfounder would do even more sales ad the community would buy up a working device like i describe, and the reviews would be great One other note, I would've liked to have seen some better cables going from the pcb board to the pi (it's very difficult to plug in the USB-C and the micro HDMI, as they use very cheap and large/stiff cables). Additionally, there's very little room in the cutout to move those cables around, they could've simply cut a little more plastic or used better cables.

Windows threw a curve, but the product itself works great. It is perfectly sized for my 800 x 600 touch screen program used for a remote control switching application. I would purchase again if had a similar need. The only issue so far s with how it works within Windows10. Apparently Windows expects a touch screen monitor to be the Primary monitor when using a multi-monitor setup. An internet search showed others have stumbled upon the same issue and it is true of any touch screen monitor. Since this monitor is only 7" diagonal it is quite small. Think of how many times you have opened a program -- or a program has opened for you. Now think of just how small a 7" screen is. The default place for a program to open is on the primary monitor. With this touchscreen you have to move those big window programs off the little touch screen so you can work with them. That happens over and over again if you open and close programs. One person on the internet found a temporary work around, but every time Windows updates he has to redo the actions. Two things with that. Windows updates very often and for some reason his work around doesn't work on my system. Fortunately for me I do not need to run that switching program often, so it isn't a problem for me to reassign this small screen as my primary monitor when needed. I switch back to a larger primary monitor and turn the power off to this little one when done. That is a specialized situation though and most people would be unhappy with that arrangement. It isn't the monitors fault though so I give it a 5-star rating.

I bought two of these. Both have clear, bright images and no observable pixel defects. I find the controls more intuitive than other monitors of this size that I've used. While designed specifically for the Raspberry Pi 4, it should accommodate many other small SBCs that adopt the RPi form-factor, though most will require replacing either/both of the power and HDMI cables. Do note that, without modification, the case will not accommodate the large heatsink found on the Odroid C4 due to inadequate clearance between the heatsink and the GPIO connector. The case and monitor make a nice tidy setup when combined with the official RPi keyboard and mouse. Highly recommended.

Worked as advertised. Sharp screen but should have bought a bigger size. As is, works great. Do not double the pixel size! That choice pushes the selection buttons off the screen and there is no recovery!

If you are buying this to use with a Rasberrypi Zero 2 W (Pidog) you will need a different cable
