About this product
This 3.5-inch TFT LCD screen is designed for Raspberry Pi 5, featuring a 320x480 resolution, 60Hz refresh rate, and 4:3 aspect ratio. It includes touchscreen capability, HDMI connectivity, and an active cooler for the Pi 5. The kit comes with a stylus pen, screwdriver, and ABS case. It runs on Debian and has 4 USB ports. This is a compact display for casual computing and gaming projects.
Our take
For a Raspberry Pi 5 project, this little 3.5-inch screen does the job. The touchscreen is responsive, and the included active cooler helps keep the Pi cool during use. Resolution is only 320x480, so don't expect sharp text or detailed graphics—it's fine for retro gaming or basic interfaces. Setup was straightforward with HDMI, and the ABS case protects everything. I wish the brightness and contrast were specified; it's adequate indoors but not great in daylight. The 60Hz refresh is fine for simple tasks. At $52, it's a decent value for hobbyists who need a compact display for their Pi 5, but it's not a daily driver monitor.
