“Lovely little device.
I also bought a Pico2-wh and a bme690 breakout.
By the end of the evening, just using the example codes on github I had the screen displaying temperature, humidity, pressure and "gas".
The ease of use far surpassed my expectations.”
“Does all it says it will. Colour and greyscale is clear. Screen is very sharp (my photos might not be).
The Pimoroni library is straightforward.
It leaves a handful of GPIO unused so the Pico can do more than just the display and the bulit-in buttons (in my case control a couple of heater elements). The Qw/ST port makes hooking up other breakouts a doddle (in my case two MCP9601 thermocouple amplifiers).
One gotcha - the screen protector had a red stripe - I thought screen was faulty (and reported it as such) until Pimoroni friendly support put me right!”
“A great display with useful example documentation to get you started. Delivered in a couple of days as always with great tracking updates. Used it to copy a version of a lander seen on line which was fun to build and program.”
“A great display and with all the supporting MicroPython examples that worked straight away.
It's a shame some of the larger displays (by other vendors) dont have such a good MicroPython support.”
