ELECROW 10.1" Portable Touchscreen Monitor for Raspberry Pi 5/4 & PC

I was looking for a small screen to sit on my desk below my monitors connected to my CCTV system that I could leave permanently on, and this fitted the bill perfectly. The screen quality is excellent and clear. Some users have mentioned the tape around the edge which is there but not an issue for me (or noticeable unless handled)... I don't handle the screen... it just sits there doing what I wanted from it so not a problem for me. The same for the basic stand... it does the job. I do not use the touch functionality so cannot vouch for that. It does what I want and was a good price... I would have no hesitation in recommending and would happily buy again.

This is not super cheap, but I was still pleasantly surprised by the quality. Does what it says on the tin, bright and crisp and the touch seems to work fine. Having the connectors on the back rather than the side helps keep the wires hidden. The only down side was that I had to I make my own stand because the legs supplied are rubbish!

Right out of the box it looks great, decent resolution and gets plenty bright (even brighter than my laptop screen.) I'm using it as a third monitor for my spectrum analyzer which I keep on 100% of the time and it frees up space on my other screens that would otherwise be taken up by this window. I was unsure if the pixel response times were at all decent and thankfully, they are. I could easily game or watch movies on this screen without any issues. The color of the screen was a bit green-tinted as you get with most displays, but nothing that isn't fixable in software. Unfortunately, the OSD menu is only semi-functional on this model. Easy enough to change brightness, contrast, etc but the 'user profile' under color settings doesn't seem to work. Not a huge deal for me as I tweak colors in my driver software. Another gripe is that even with the speakers set to 0% volume, they always emit some audible noise interference which might be remedied by using a DC power brick instead of powering from USB, but I have chosen to de-solder them altogether as I do not use the speakers. That being said, the speakers sound decent for the size and get plenty loud without running into distortion. All in all, the contrast is what you expect from an IPS type display; good! Viewing angles are surprisingly good as well, maintaining decent colors and contrast off-axis. The fact you can run other resolutions on this works good, though aspect ratio is forced, so the monitor won't stretch anything other than it's native aspect ratio - not a huge issue for me either. Power via USB is a totally convenient option too.

Very easy to set up (I am using it as an extra monitor for my PC). Very responsive and cpmes with a comprehensive collection of plugs/cable to suit all situations.

A very capable little display, works well with a Raspberry Pi. The so-called stand is rubbish, so I mounted a phone stand on the back instead. This works much better. Where it says "backlight", there's a tiny button you can only detect by running your finger across the top. This cycles the backlight intensity level. The display will still work with the backlight at its lowest setting, and it'll use less power that way. Resolution is higher than I needed for my purposes. Of course, with high resolution, you'll need to increase your text etc size, and if you don't want that, it can be easier to stick with a lower resolution. Lower resolutions also save power, as the computer attached doesn't have to work so hard. If I had to criticise, I'd say it could do with a better manual, and it needs a lot more mounting points on the back. You could improvise gluing clip fittings to it - which I suspect I'll end up doing. Although I suspect it's probably safe to drill shallow holes in the thicker parts of the backplate, I don't want to risk that myself.

This is an excellent monitor for the Raspberry Pi 5. No config changes needed and everything just worked including the touchscreen. The instructions suggested you might need to change some details in a config file but this was not the case with the Pi 5 and latest OS. The touchscreen is responsive and accurate and the image quality is excellent. I'm using it to display a smart hone dashboard Sharp Tools and its perfect. There is an adjustable brightness button allowing the screen to get really bright, but I set it to 20% which is plenty for my use case. The stand which comes with it isn't great but I 3D printed one out to fit. The included cables are a little long when using the Pi mounted to the back but I changed them out for shorter ones and glued cable tie anchors to the back of the screen for cable management.

It's a recycle screen pulled from an iPad or something, there is snow pixels and broken pixels all over the screen, so it's definately recycled from spares. The screen is shrink-wrapped with electrical-tape-like plastic around what feels like a wooden frame. The feet are cut from chipboard. Even the usb sockets look recycled and would not fit a usb cable properly. It's literal value is £0.00. Reboxed eWaste. I returned it in a blink.

The whole product was packed well, from the outer box to all the inside bits, in shock proof bags where needed, extra screw if you want to mount it or attach a PI to the rear end, the port being on the read but going sideways is a nice feature allowing you to mount to a wall and not stick out too much, overall picture quality seems Good, and I say good on a scale of 1-10 being a 6 or 7. for the price it seems to do nicely and would be great for a PI or an extension small screen for a Computer. Unfortunately I purchased this as I wanted to wall mount a CCTV setup on the wall and decided to go for a small, compact screen that can be mounted with touch features so I don't need a mouse to navigate. The bad news was that plugging the required cables into the back and into my CCTV box the touchscreen DOES NOT work. I believe the touchscreen only works with required linked items... e.g. a Raspberry PI with the correct info files, or a PC that can activate the touch screen. I have noticed when connecting via the USB ports of the CCTV box I can plug in the micro USB into ether the Power port or the Touch port on the screen and both will supply power to the screen so both are not required it seems. But no matter what cables I tested and if I tried 1 cable or 2 cables in at the same time the touch does not work on my current Sannce CCTV box. I am unsure if this is something the monitor can maybe update at a later date or on future models or if this is the CCTV box not compatible with touchscreen. Due to this issue I have opted to give 3 star overall, this is a personal opinion based on my current situation of purchase and its use. It could be an easy 4 or 5 star for others using it for anything other than CCTV setups.

Funktioniert ohne separaten Strom am Raspi4. Nutze ihn für meine Fotobox

Uitstekende monitor, vlijmscherp beeld. Wel wat prijzig (voor hetzelfde geld heb je een 17” monitor). De losse sokkel is wat primitief, instabiel en geen pluspunt. Het touchscherm werkt prima.
