I ordered this screen about a month ago (October, 2019). It came very nicely packaged and had no defects from what I could tell. I had plugged it in to my Raspberry Pi 4, and it was clear and bright. Perfect for what I needed it for. Unfortunately I had started to see signs of deterioration within the first couple days.. I had left it in a fairly cold room. When I had checked on it the next day, the polarization filter had started to peel from the LCD and the touchscreen had started to fail.. HOWEVER: Elecrow had contacted me after seeing that I had a somewhat negative experience and offered to send me another one to show that their screen is capable of meeting my demands. Before I wrote this review, I had to be sure that I would not see the same results again. So I placed it in the same room, with even colder temperatures than what had started to affect the other one.. I waited for two days, and when I checked, the screen was fine! There were no issues with the touch functionality and the filter showed no bubbling either. Worked plug and play with my Raspberry Pi 4 and will definitely add a nice touch to my motorcycle. I definitely would recommend this product. I'm fairly certain that my situation was a one time occurrence, as this one has absolutely no issues, and I applaud Elecrow for their awesome customer service in the long term. Happy holidays, and best of luck on all your DIY projects! Review: Great for pi 5 - This thing works great.It fits well and the border quality is really good. Obviously, there's no built-in speakers for something like this, but regardless, we use this for a project in our engineering class. So that way, we didn't have to rely on a monitor when booting up our raspberry pi 5. It's very fair for the price and setting it up was relatively straightforward. What I loved about it is is it didn't interfere with the io pins ## Features - Driver-Free, Plug-and-Play: The LCD display comes with an HD cable and a USB cable. No drivers needed-micro USB interface for touch and power supply, HDMI-compatible interface for displaying. A quick 5-second setup makes it perfect for beginners, coding lessons, and project demos - Key Features: The mini monitor is equipped with a power button to reduce power consumption. You can fine-tune your display via the built-in OSD menu (adjustable contrast, brightness, saturation, etc.) and enjoy convenient audio output support. - Broad Compatibility: The touch screen monitor supports the entire Raspberry Pi lineup, Banana Pi, BB Black, Jetson Nano, and other mainstream mini PC. It also can be used as a secondary screen for a TV box, a Switch gaming display, or an extra Windows monitor - 5-Inch HD Capacitive Touchscreen: Featuring an 800Γ—480 resolution LCD panel with a 60Hz refresh rate, this display ensures sharp visuals, smooth performance, and responsive touch. Ideal for coding, gaming, and media playback - Compact & Tidy: Custom connectors for Raspberry Pi eliminate cable clutter, allowing for machine mounting. The sleek, compact design makes this small monitor an ultra space-saving solution, ideal for various installation scenarios ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07FDYXPT7 | | Additional Features | Touchscreen | | Aspect Ratio | 1.67:1 | | Best Sellers Rank | #45,461 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #1,143 in Computer Monitors | | Brand | ELECROW | | Built-In Media | 5 inch touchscreen monitor x 1, HDcablex 1, MicroUSBcablex 1, DVD x 1, copper screws pack (4pcs) x 1 | | Color | Blue | | Compatible Devices | Banana Pi, BB Black, Jetson Nano and other mainstream mini PC, Gaming Console, Raspberry Pi 5, 4, 3 B+, TV box, Windows, PC | | Connectivity Technology | HDMI, USB | | Contrast Ratio | 2000:1 | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 575 Reviews | | Display Resolution Maximum | 800 pixels | | Display Technology | LCD | | Display Type | LCD | | Hardware Connectivity | HDMI, USB | | Image Contrast Ratio | 2000:1 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 1"D x 6"W x 3.4"H | | Manufacturer | ELECROW | | Model Name | RC050 | | Model Number | RC050 | | Native Resolution | 800 x 480 | | Number of Component Outputs | 1 | | Refresh Rate | 60 hertz | | Resolution | 800 x 480 | | Response Time | 2 milliseconds | | Screen Finish | Glossy | | Screen Size | 5 inches | | Screen Surface Description | Glossy | | Specific Uses For Product | Business, Education, Gaming, Photo Editing, Programming, Video Editing | | Total Number of HDMI Ports | 1 | | Total USB 2.0 Ports | 2 | | Total Usb Ports | 2 | | UPC | 749029248764 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 Year Manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Aspect Ratio:** 1.67:1 - **Brand:** ELECROW - **Resolution:** 800 x 480 - **Screen Size:** 5 Inches - **Screen Surface Description:** Glossy ## Images ![RC050 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61IgpB9sCDL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can I use this as an external monitor for my PC or other devices? thanks** A: Yes, it's a plug and play.

What I loved about it is is it didn't interfere with the io pins ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely perfect for PC monitor panel *by K***N on February 15, 2021* I like to watch YouTube videos of people building computers and came across this guy who put a mini lcd panel inside his computer to monitor temps and speeds. He recommended this panel (5 inch blue). So picked one up. The cables that came with it are short so I recommend that you grab a 3ft USB to micro usb cable a and a slim monoprice hdmi cable. I routed both to the back of the pc. Once the lcd came on, I configured the panel as a 2nd monitor. Now, the resolution is 800x600 but I was having a hard time getting templates to add to it, so I changed it to 800x480 on windows and downloaded a bunch of aida64 templates in that resolution. Although the resolution is lower, it actually looks better to me. See the picture. Took me about 30 mins to set everything up. Also, you will need the retail version of aida64 extreme, so I recommend you do a Google search for websites that sell the license alot cheaper that the actual aida64 site. As a bonus, people online don't like that because these panels are powered by USB, once the computer is off, some panels remain on with the message "no signal detected" but this one fixes that because it shuts off automatically once it does not detect a video signal. I am extremely pleased on how this came out. I would give it 10 stars if I could ## Frequently Bought Together - ELECROW 5 Inch Touch Screen Monitor for Raspberry Pi - 800Γ—480 Mini Monitor Touchscreen LCD Display Compatible with Raspberry Pi 5/4/3B+/3B, BB Black, Banana Pi, Jetson Nano, Windows, PC - 8Bitdo Zero 2 Bluetooth Gamepad Keychain Sized Mini Controller for Switch, Windows, Android, macOS & Raspberry Pi(Turquoise Edition) - LewanSoul LD-3015MG Standard Full Metal Gear Digital Servo with 17kg High Torque for RC Robot Car(Control Angle 270) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ro/products/71587263-rc050](https://www.desertcart.ro/products/71587263-rc050) --- *Product available on Desertcart Romania* *Store origin: RO* *Last updated: 2026-08-22*
