Net Weight approx. 300 g Application This display fits a broad range of single-board computers and development platforms that need a compact, high-color-accuracy touch screen: Raspberry Pi Tablet / Portable Computer — Pair with a Pi 4B or Pi 5 to build a portable workstation. The QLED panel holds up well for photo review, web browsing, and light terminal work. Gaming Console Second Screen — Connect a PS4, Xbox 360, or Nintendo Switch via HDMI for a desk-side monitor or travel gaming setup. Retro Arcade Cabinet — Run RetroPie and use this as the primary display. The wide color gamut makes 2D pixel art look sharper than on standard LCD panels. Kiosk & Information Display — Deploy as a touch-enabled counter display or self-service terminal. 10-point touch runs without any driver install. AI / Edge Computing Display — Attach to a Jetson Nano to show inference output, camera feeds, or sensor dashboards in real time. Home Automation Panel — Wall-mount it running Home Assistant. The touch interface and 500 nit brightness make it readable even in ambient light. Photo & Media Review — Use as a color reference display for reviewing RAW files or footage. sRGB 100% coverage keeps colors accurate without calibration. Supported Devices Raspberry Pi Works with all Raspberry Pi models — Pi 5, 4B, 3B+, Zero 2 W, Compute Module 4. Connect via HDMI for video and USB Micro-B for touch. Use the included HDMI-to-Micro-HDMI adapter for Pi Zero 2 W and Pi 5. Tested operating systems: Raspberry Pi OS — 10-point touch, no driver needed Ubuntu / Kali Linux — single-point touch, no driver needed WIN10 IoT — single-point touch, no driver needed RetroPie — display only, no driver needed PC, Jetson Nano & Gaming Consoles Works with any standard HDMI source — PCs, laptops, NVIDIA Jetson Nano, and gaming consoles: Windows 11 / 10 / 8.1 / 8 / 7 — 10-point touch, no driver needed Jetson Nano (Ubuntu) — single-point touch, no driver needed Xbox 360 / PS4 / Nintendo Switch — display via HDMI Any HDMI device for display-only use Setup guides and configuration details: 10.1HP-CAPQLED Wiki.

A: The hardware resolution is 1280×720. Through software scaling, it can output up to 1920×1080 on supported systems. Q: Does the touch panel work without installing drivers? A: Yes — on Raspberry Pi OS and Windows 7 through 11, the 10-point touch works straight away without any driver. On Ubuntu, Kali, and WIN10 IoT, single-point touch also works driver-free. Q: Can I use this with a Nintendo Switch, PS4, or Xbox 360? A: Yes. Connect via HDMI and it works as a standard monitor. Touch input is not available on gaming consoles. Q: What power supply does it require? A: A 5V 3A DC adapter. The EU plug version is included in the box. Q: Does it support audio output? A: Yes — there is a 3.5mm headphone jack on the unit, plus a 24-pin header for audio. HDMI audio pass-through is also supported. Q: How does this compare to a standard LCD display? A: The QLED Quantum Dot backlight covers NTSC 96% and sRGB 100%, which is wider than most standard LCD panels. Color accuracy is higher (+58.3% purity) and the rated backlight life is 60,000 hours versus roughly 30,000–50,000 for conventional LED backlights. Q: Can I adjust brightness and contrast? A: Yes. Use the included button board to access the OSD menu, where you can adjust brightness, contrast, and color directly.
