It has plastic legs to angle the screen which looked fragile in the images, but seem sturdy in use. The frame fits around the back edge making it seem more like a tablet and less likely to be damaged by handling. It can be assembled in landscape, portrait, upright or upside down. As shown on the website, there is no protection for the Raspberry Pi, but access to all the ports is fine and fitting hats is simple. I have used nylon screws and additional hex risers to secure my DAC/ADC hat. Mine is in landscape and upside down to avoid the power and HDMI cables tilting the display. The Pi software corrects the screen orientation. The feet provide just enough resistance on a slippery surface to use the touch-screen feature. The safety film on the acrylic parts was hard to remove, but the finish is mirror perfect. All in all, you would not want to use the display without this stand.

I really like this frame. It was easy to assemble. If you want to fit your Pi to the back of the screen you might need a 90degree USB-C adapter plug as the USB power lead will upset the balance a bit. Other than that, not complaints at all. Recommend you have the Pi set up before you fit to the back of the screen as the frame restricts access to the SD card slot.

Very well finished, perfect fit. The brackets prevent the use of some of the USB and Ethernet ports when used horizontally.

Highly responsive touch screen, works very well with Raspberry Pi 4 and 5. Requires the latest raspberry PI OS though

The frame is clean cut and shipped with the protective film still on it, which was a nice touch. The joins are snug so the screen stands solid.
