Last Updated on March 26, 2023 by pg@petergamma.org

issues:

  • some of them can be connected over HDMI and usb and are touchable
  • are HDMI and usb connectors a good choice for Raspberri PI s?
  • IPS displays can be connected over a flat cable to the Raspberry Pi
  • some of them offer the option to mount the Raspberry Pi at the back of the display with screws
  • some HDMI displays do not offer this mounting option
  • touch eventually only works with Raspian OS
