Compatible with Raspberry Pi 3, High Resolution 1024 x 600 Raspberry Pi 7 Inch LCD HDMI Capacitive Touch Screen for Raspberry Pi (Raspberry Pi 2 Model B / Raspberry Pi Model B / B + / A +) / PC

I've had this screen for about a month now. The screen arrived very well packaged in a strong cardboard box with foam padding containing the display, a short flat cable hdmi cable, micro to standard usb cable and a CD (I didn't really go into what was on the CD, but from a quick look it contains drivers & possibly some code examples). Setting up the screen was simply a matter of connecting cables to the RPi and updating the config.txt file in the boot directory with the following settings:hdmi_force_hotplug=1hdmi_group=2hdmi_mode=2hdmi_mode=87hdmi_cvt=1024 600 60 3 0 0 0The touch screen functionality just worked out of the box. The screen is fine for a relatively cheap unit, with touch capability. To set your expectations to the right level, don't expect something that is the same quality as say an iPad screen. The screen is a little washed out, there is some light bleed from the back light, the viewing angle isn't massive. Having said all that given the price it completely meets my expectations and the RPi desktop interface is easy to drive using this display, hence the five star review and based on my experience I would recommend this product.

7 inch screen. I was up and running with the screen pretty quickly. As mentioned in other reviews: the instructions out of the box are not great and the instructions from the link below are not correct for the 7 inch version.[...]Before starting the following instructions it might be worthwhile checking for updates by typing the following in a terminal window:sudo apt-get updateI already had raspbian (wheezy) running on a RPi 2 model B (a01041) so just added the text below to the bottom of the /boot/config.txt file.Connecting the usb from the screen to the pi allowed the touch features to work as well as providing power.max_usb_current=1hdmi_group=2hdmi_mode=1hdmi_mode=87hdmi_cvt 1024 600 60 6 0 0 0Note that the dimensions for the 7 inch model are 1024x600. The instructions on the website are for a different model with different dimensions so the screen will just flicker and appear not to work. Overall, this is a great screen and is well priced.

Great screen, nice and fast, good viewing angle and nice colours, no multi-touch on raspberry pi. It is stated on the waveshare website but wasn't on the seller page and only found out afterwards. My first screen though.

I was looking for something to add a bit of "pizzazz" to my media centre and this really hit the spot. As a screen the resolution is better than expected and with windows 10 there is an option for a touch interface which makes the capasative screen function even better that the default. It's not a retina display nor is it 4K but for £40 this is really good quality. you really can not do better than this for the price!

Unfortunately the 7 inch model doesn't work with the Pi3 as advertised. Firstly the drivers are difficult to find and impossible to install. I spent a whole afternoon trying to do this. Secondly it draws more power than the Pi can supply so needs an auxiliary power supply, which means plugging a charger into the mini-usb, so it isn't connected to the usb of the Pi and therefore it doesn't work as a touch screen. Big disappointment as so many manufacturers who produce ancillaries for the Pi make them simple and easy to use - this is unnecessarily complicated. Shame as I plugged the screen into my Mac and it seems a good quality product.

I got the 5" and 7" versions and tested them with a Pi Zero.The Zero had the latest Raspbien(Jessie) and the touch functions worked out the box without any extra software.You'll need to set the HDMI settings in config.txt for the correct resolution etc.

Wow, this is fantastic Screen so clear, Had problem with the CD, errors extracting the files all sorts, I used the sh to install it and it disabled the USB, but the solution was simplejust add these lines into the /etc/boot/config.txt (Worked Perfectly and the touch screen)#hdmi_drive=2hdmi_group=2hdmi_mode=1hdmi_mode=87hdmi_cvt 1024 600 60 6 0 0 0max_usb_current=1also deleted the last line of code!

Using with a Raspberry Pi and it's brilliant! Excellent clarity, contrast and colour and the touch screen works well.

Perfecta para mi uso, una vez superado la configuración inicial del modo HDMI es asosmbroso su funcionamiento y perfectamente adaptable para la raspberry pi 3.

Ok

Lo schermo è piccolo, leggero, straordinariamente nitido.Collegato a Windows 10 si è dimostrato immediatamente funzionale, senza richiedere driver di alcun tipo; anche il touchscreen ha funzionato "out of the box" senza fallo.Mi ha sorpreso trovare nella scatola un'indicazione ai parametri da inserire nel file di configurazione del raspberry pi per impostare la risoluzione di 1024x600, che non è standard; peccato però che non abbiano funzionato. Una rapida ricerca nelle knowledge base mi ha permesso di impostare i parametri corretti. Con il raspberry, tuttavia, non ho (ancora) utilizzato il touchscreen.

7" Display mit dem Raspberry PI 3:1. Der Display kommt toll verpackt an.2. Die Bedienungsanleitung ist total einfach zu lesen und auszuführen.3. Die Qualität des Bildes ist erschreckend toll. Man sieht das Bild von allen Seiten klar, und der Farbkontrast ist besser als bei einigen 250€ PC Bildschirmen, wie meinem...4. Die Touch Funktion Funktioniert "right out of the box" (gleich aus der Verpackung).Ein paar Sachen die zu beachten sind:-) Als Fernsehbildschirm eignet der Display nicht. Zumindest nicht bei mir...-) Man sollte nicht versuchen die Auflösung im Raspbian OS einzustellen!-) Man sollte die Betriebsanleitung lesen, um z.B. das Bild um 90° zu drehen oder die Auflösung einzustellen.-) Die Website vom Waveshare 7inch Display gibt genaue Anweisungen, wie man die Auflösung am Raspberry einstellt, und wie man den Bildschirm auch als PC Desktop Bildschirm mit Touch verwenden kann. Website => [...]Persönliche Erfahrung:Es hat mich 45 Minuten gebraucht bis alles Fix und Fertig war, aber ich habe erst nach 30 Minuten realisiert, das ich die Auflösung des Displays nicht über die Raspbian Einstellungen konfigurieren kann!Der Display ist wirklich top verarbeitet und er hats auch in sich!
