Every day there are more portable screens for all budgets and needs, and today we find a 7-inch screen that is also tactile. So its possibilities of use are multiple, as an auxiliary screen of information, primary using its touch sensor or connecting it to a retro console.
Its 7-inch panel is a 5-point touch IPS, with a resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels, 500 cd/m2 brightness and 60Hz refresh rate, a simple but sufficient configuration given its size. It is compatible with development boards such as Raspberry Pi, Banana Pi, consoles, mini PC and of course any device that has an HDMI output, in fact on the same sales page there are instructions to configure it correctly with Raspbian.
The connectors are an HDMI input port, audio jack and a USB to power it directly from any free USB port, as it seems that it does not need a dedicated power supply. A protective case is also included to act as a stable stand.
