Review: This thing works great.It fits well and the border quality is really good. Obviously, there's no built-in speakers for something like this, but regardless, we use this for a project in our engineering class. So that way, we didn't have to rely on a monitor when booting up our raspberry pi 5. It's very fair for the price and setting it up was relatively straightforward. What I loved about it is is it didn't interfere with the io pins
Review: Built it in my pc case for mostly aesthetic reasons. It worked right away from the get-go. Plug and play and its all good. I think u need to upgrade the firmware for the touchscreen which I didnt do since I dont care about that function. Im building my pcs since my early teens but I think anyone can do this, just be sure where u want to put it and if your screws are sufficient. Brightness, colors etc look very nice and the frame is solid enough to work with inside a pc case. I use wallpaper engine on steam to put some nice moving wallpapers on it and it looks amazing. So far its been nice for 50 bucks. I ordered some extra 1m HDMI and USB to Micro-USB cables (and extra screws too) so I can reach my GPU through the big case. I will update my review if this thing stops working.

The display can't be used for most applications as the characters are washed out, and you need to tilt the screen severely to be able to barely make out characters. Adjusting the backlight doesn't help.
