A brand new official raspbery pi 7inch DSI display

In 720p: 1280×720, and a better integration of the driver board:

It’s more or less the double of the price of an 800x480 HDMI + USB touch sold on aliexpress. But I always found this solution a bit messy for getting a clean integration with All these cables. DSI interface is much more convenient for this IMHO.

Perfect timing since the screen I ordered over a month ago hasn’t arrived.

According to the description, it’s just TFT, not even IPS. (I have to admit I’m rather sensitive on the quality of displays…) And still more expensive than my Waveshare QLED - at least it has a better resolution.

Well, that sucks.

On some photos I see the screen is not really black and it is recessed internally behind the surface. Obviously no bonding. Nothing written about any glass quality / hardening.
At least resolution has gone up a bit.

Time to allow native gui and Mod-UI directly on the Zynthian. :wink:
