I used this screen for a portable retropie/kodi build for an in-car entertainment system for my kids. It works like a dream for retropie, and I can still get HDMI out for when I want to do big screen gaming. Response time is great, touchscreen accuracy is spot on. No touch support for retropie at present, which was a bit disappointing for scummvm, but I have also used it as a kiosk screen for installations, and also as a document reader. The documentation is good and there are some excellent cases for printing on thingiverse if you search. The power lead is a little bit of an inconvenient position, you might want to consider a 90 degree adapter to get both power leads in. Needs a fairly beefy PSU if you are powering a pi3 and the screen over gpio. Get the official 2.5A PSU to avoid disappointment.

Used it with picoreplayer. Tested with raspbian buy got some lagging. Will try again later withRaspian as I want to have more apps running on it not just Picoreplayer/squeezelite.

After the courier let me down with some frankly poor service, Pi Hut were quick to correct this. Great products.Will use again.

I purchased this touchscreen display for my partner for Christmas and he is delighted with it. It arrived promptly and was packed well. Although I am not technically minded, he assures me that this is ideal for the things he wants to do with his Pi. Thank you.

I just connected it and started the Raspberry PI2B with the same SD image I was already working on and the display worked immediatly.

This is a great screen for the raspberry pi 3. With the case made for it it fits great with the screen and the pi board. However, if you fit another board, such as a DAC/amp the case doesn't really fit anymore and the ribbon cable from the screen to the pi is very tight against the 3rd board. All things that can be overcome but it would be nice to see a case with room for expansion cards available. All in all a great screen.
