Re: 9.7" iPad Retina Screen Perfect for MiSTer, $60 Fully Assembled 😄

To clarify, is the reason people say not to use the included HDMI cable because it is poor quality/faulty or because it can't do 2048x1536@60hz? I used it for a bit and it did that resolution fine with my RTX 4070, but now I'm worried it could've damaged something.

Re: 9.7" iPad Retina Screen Perfect for MiSTer, $60 Fully Assembled 😄

I received my USB-C model and it seems to work well. The screen is a bit off center and there is some blacklight uniformity issues on the right side. I've been using the included mini HDMI cable and can select 2048x1536@60hz in Windows, so I'm not sure why people are saying it's not good. The fit is very stiff though. It sucks having to go back to ...

Has anyone tried attaching a metal plate to the back and using a magnetic mount with the display? Would that work?

Re: 9.7" iPad Retina Screen Perfect for MiSTer, $60 Fully Assembled 😄

I don’t but I imagine they are just USB HID touchscreens. should work and if nothing else, like you said it would protect the screen. Go for it! I’m still looking for a precut glass overlay for the screen, touch or not. Okay, I already ordered the non touch usb-c version but maybe if it works out I might try getting another. Do you know the best w...

Re: 9.7" iPad Retina Screen Perfect for MiSTer, $60 Fully Assembled 😄

We like this one because it's readily available (iPad screen) and cheap, plus has a very high PPI and resolution with low latency, especially for it's size. Does anyone have experience with the touch screen version? I'd be nervous about applying a screen protector to a bare LCD screen but maybe having a touch digitizer installed would protect it m...

Re: 9.7" iPad Retina Screen Perfect for MiSTer, $60 Fully Assembled 😄

Does anyone know about the quality of the other portable monitors on Aliexpress? Is this supposed to be the best one? I ordered the usb-c model but was wondering about the other displays. Would it be possible to use panels from other types of mobile devices or is there something about this particular iPad screen that makes it more compatible with a...
