Product description

I ended up dropping a screw from Pi board down into monitor. I tried moving it around go get screw out. Well it them got caught somewhere in monitor case. I contacted UPerfect for help. Tried other things but could not find screw. The ended up sending me a replacement. I really like company for that support. Got replacement and have it up and running. I did use some painter tape to go around PI board when I was screwing it in this time..

It is not often I take the time to review a product, however my interactions with uperfectmonitor need to be shared. I purchased a Raspberry 4 with the Raspberry 4 factory 5-inch color touchscreen, had it delivered, and soon assembled it. Within the first 24 hours I managed to drop it face down and totally destroy the 5-inch touchscreen. So, I logged into Amazon to see what alternatives there were for a replacement screen. I compared all the features and specs of what was available and decided the uperfectmonitor best fit my needs. I placed an order for the monitor which quickly arrived in just a couple of days. My first impression upon receiving the monitor was how professionally packaged the unit was to protect it. I don't think I have ever seen anything as well packed and they obviously put a lot of effort into engineering the packaging materials. They also included the power supply and just about every cable you would ever need to hook the monitor to any device. Before getting started installing my Raspberry PI, I read through the instruction booklet that came with the uperfectmonitor. On the specifications page it listed the monitor's resolution as 1366 x 768. This concerned me as I had ordered the 1920 x 1080 version of the monitor. I immediately wrote the company inquiring about the difference in resolutions and in less than 24 hours they go back to me and gave me a simple little procedure to test the true resolution of the monitor I was sent. As it turns out, I indeed received the correct monitor and was told they simply included the wrong manual in my box. They assured me this issue would be addressed and should no longer happen.While I was waiting for my parts, I tested the display on numerous devices. I used it as a third display on my PC, connected it to my 84-inch HDTV, and even used it as a security monitor display at our business. In every case it worked flawlessly, yielding a fabulous display.By and large, installation of the Raspberry PI is very simple, however, when installing the Raspberry PI board in the enclosure there are two sets of pin headers that must be lined up so they fit properly together. during assembly I didn't realize this and as I joined the pieces, I managed to bend several of the pins. I again contacted the company and again within 24 hours they responded and told me they would send the pieces I needed directly to me at no charge. Two days later I got the parts, plugged in the PI and was up and running. Their support is absolutely second to none.As to the display, it is absolutely gorgeous. The colors are vibrant the detail crisp, the touchscreen responsive yet not too sensitive. The case is nicely designed with a support in the back to allow for various viewing angles and an internal fan to help keep things cool. it even has built-in speakers that actually sound great given the size of them.There is one downside that may be critical for some users. With the touchscreen connector plugged into the Raspberry PI the system will not boot and hangs with an error HD1. Strangely though, if I disconnect the touchscreen the PI boots correctly and the monitor displays the desktop as it should. Once booted, if the touchscreen connector is then plugged in everything works as it should - no system crash and perfect touchscreen response. It is only a problem at initial boot. Once again I contacted support and once again within 24 hours they got back to me. This time they didn't have an immediate fix but the issue was immediately sent to their engineering department for analysis. While that was happening, I did a lot of research on the Internet and found many others who have had similar problems. I tried 11 different methods to attempt to solve the problem, but none seemed to work. I spent literally hours on Google looking for a solution and finally found one, and only one, that fixes the problem.The issue seems to stem from a conflict between the touchscreen and the Raspberry PI's network boot option. It only affects network boot and all of your other network options will continue to work just fine.Should you have this problem, here are the step-by-step instructions to turn off the network boot option: (I wish I could take credit for this but after hours of searching I finally found that two individuals had come up with the solution.)(of course, don't type the quotes with the commands)1. In your editor type "sudo -E rpi-eeprom-config --edit"2. Add "NET_INSTALL_ENABLED=0" anywhere in the boot config file.3. Hit Control-X to exit out of the editor. Then type "Y" to save the boot config file4. In your editor type "sudo reboot". This will reboot your Pi. After reboot plug in your touchpad and it will now reboot without getting any errors.This only works if you boot off the internal SD. If you try to boot off a USB thumb drive or external SSD you will still get the error and once again will have to plug in the touchscreen manually.Bottom line: this company is first class, stands behind their well-engineered and thought-out product, and provides the best support I have seen it a long long time. I highly recommend them. They will take care of you. I, for one, will be looking forward to additional products from them and won't hesitate to purchase them if it is something I need.

Product came glued to the top of the product box. No packing peanuts or air bags, literally glued to the top of the box. Left a rather indelible glue residue on the screen of the device. Also included was the Amazon return receipt with the personal information of previous buyer. Name and address. Nice. I censored the info in Photoshop. Not sure how it happened, but I'm returning it. Hopefully no one gets my personal info. I have never had anything like this happen to me in all my years of purchasing stuff on Amazon. Surreal.

Great screen. I found the instructions not very clear for where to solder the wires on at. Attached is an image for how to solder the wires with a little research. Confirmed to work very well when done this way

I used this to build a Retropie barcade and it turn out beautifully. Screen quality is amazing.

I got a replacement. Because the first time the HDMI connection pins are crooked and unfixable. Then, they send me a replacement which on the cover it says it is new but inside, the screen film wasn't there and cables came with packages that look like from another product. Anyways, this time the hardware was fine except the packaging wasn't new. But on the software side, my RPI 4B wasn't able to boot. Giving me an HID error due to a bootloader update. Solved it by adding "NET_INSTALL_ENABLED=0" in the boot config file. A quick fix. Find details on RPI forum regarding touch display bootloader issues.

I’ve been using Raspberry Pi’s since they first came out. In fact, I have an original Model B (the first version released) that has been a print server for the last 10 years (which is the same length of time that Pi’s have been around). I’ve got something like 15 of them doing various tasks in our house, as well as coupled to a 3D printer and laser engraver.My point is that I’ve built lots of Pi’s for myself and others, and have tried several different monitors. Some have been ok, a few terrible, and a fair amount of good ones. There has only been one that I would rate as outstanding and that’s this one.Excellent packaging, excellent workmanship. All cables and parts that will be needed for pi 3 and pi 4. Simple to put together. There is an instruction manual of sorts, but the photos are better than the captions. There are only a couple of things that you really need to know, and those parts are explained fairly well. (I’ll give them a pass, however, because it’s obvious that English is not their first language, and that’s not their fault. They’ve done about as well as could be expected). If you’re using a pi, then this sort of stuff should be fairly easy. If you’re new to pi’s, then you should probably set this one aside while you develop your own experience with pi’s, and utilize it when you’ve put a couple together.Would I recommend this monitor? If you want to make yourself a stand-alone Linux box based on a raspberry pi, absolutely. I’m using mine for a remote desktop application and it has worked flawlessly.I will definitely buy more of these as needed.

 This screen is a great compliment to this image I am running on the PI. The Pi is securely attached, instructions are clear to follow and it just works out of the box. I am very happy with this touchscreen.

First lets say theres two fan slots on the back and it comes with one. But no screw holes to mount a second fan. eh thats okay i was hoping for easy push/pull but i can mod it a little. Then the same size fan (as one they provide) doesnt even fit in the enclosed space given, it hits the raspberry pi usb slots and must be mounted at an angle for it to fit.....sort of. The touch screen works if i hook up my laptop to the monitor but not my raspberry pi. ive tried both the usb and soldered version with no luck. The screws are horrible not nearly long enough to fit without leaving marks on the raspberry pi board just to get the screws to stay and not jump off the mounting. oh and if you want to swap out sd cards on the pi., forget about it unless you want to take apart the whole thing...i have many times to test out different os's and such.Probably the worst thing is the power cable that came with this is a European 3 prong cable...i had to go out and buy an adapter just to use it!!!! ridiculous!On a side note i lost my micro hdmi board and havent been able to find a replacement to buy so for now it is shelved.

Have a HifiBerry DAC for your PI to stream reference quality audio? Use this touchscreen to take it to the next level. I designed and 3-D printed the extension shown which allows room for the HifiBerry hat...
Robert C.
Like the compact size, connections for RPi 3/4 and clear, crisp screen quality. Haven’t tried the touch screen function yet. Didn’t expect all the various cords.
Dr. Sue Edwards
Does not support simultaneous monitor. No support from company. I downgraded the rating due to the fact the HDMI port does work.

I wanted a small outboard display for status monitoring separate from my main work computer. I purchased the 10 inch HDMI version from UPERFECT after trying a 7 inch version that was too small to use effectively.In technical terms, this display is very well thought out and implemented. The display is clear, sharp, and readable at high and side angles. The multitouch screen works well for pinch and zoom. The integration of the Raspberry Pi is excellent, using 2 small adapters (included) for power and USB to allow a Raspberry Pi to be dropped in with no soldering or extra cabling. If you want touch screen functions, UPERFECT provides both a cable that can be soldered internally for a clean solution, or a simple short solder-less USB cord that pokes out the side to access the RPi USB port. Adapters and panels are included for Raspberry Pi 3 & 4 boards. Everything looks very clean and polished looking. It's not out of place on a corporate desktop. Raspberry Pi OS bullseye works seamlessly.I did have a problem when the board first arrived. I could only get 640x480 resolution and no audio. Fortunately, the HDMI-D adapter was the same as on my 7 inch display, and I was able to test a replacement. That worked and I contacted UPERFECT support for a replacement. After a few email exchanges, they sent me a complete replacement set. Although waiting for a replacement is never fun, I am very pleased with support.Overall:- Clean design.- Everything is provided for a complete solution.- Materials are good.- Support is responsive.This is a great display for a compact monitoring solution such as a dashboard, security video, or 3D printer. Strongly recommended.

I purchased one of these monitors a while back and had a few issues with it. I did a review which was not very good.; Today I am here to update that review. Just whitin a few days after my review I was contacted by the seller and we discussed the issues. The seller sent me a brand new monitor free of charge and actually a upgraded version. The support team was very polite and professional and were quick to resolve the issue. They apologized for the unit with the issues and wanted to make good on my purchase. My review is as follows the monitor works great. The touch screen works wit5hout a hitch. The monitor is well worth the price. You cant ask for a better support team.

SD card was a major pain to get to so warning you have to take it apart to get to it. Over all about avarage
Shane botts
It has a pretty high resolution for such a compact project display.I'm using multiple video inputs running at the same time. (Raspberry Pi installed, plus HDMI input.)Thanks to the mounting holes on the back panel, I use this as a mounted touch display. I use it for flight sims instead of a Cougar MFD.The display is also a good resolution to be used as a media display so you can lookup community sites or stream a movie while grinding levels in your favorite RPG.I do have a Pi 4 installed and I use that as a system for projects. It's also plugged into a micro-pc (Optiplex) for more universal media stuff and security cameras.A BIG Thanks to their support team:I had a problem with the fan on my initial purchase, but I contacted support and they went out of their way to take care of it by sending out a new back-panel. Now that I have the fan replaced I was able to re-mount the unit so it doesn't even take up desk space.Great product and awesome support!
UnkulMunki
Works with my SenseHat installed. The fan seems to keep the enclosure fairly cool. We will see how it works after a significant burn-in period.

I previously had a negative experience, and left an honest review to reflect. They reached out to me to check in on the reasons I had a bad experience, and were very fast on resolving the issues! It’s been a long time since I’ve experienced customer service like this.The screen itself is great quality. My favorite thing about this screen is that it’s basically a monitor. I have my RP3 running retropie installed inside, and I use it as an secondary monitor for my laptop while I’m at school. It can be powered a couple different ways which is super convenient. Overall a very solid product! It has its own menu for brightness, volume, fan, etc. Highly recommend!
Rod
Sound is good, great picture and easy to set up. My one complaint is the mount of the pi itself. I added a micro SD card extender to allow for switching the SD card easily, but the position of the pi makes it difficult to fit. I highly recommend redesign to position the pi for easier access to the SD card slot, or better yet include an extension that allows switching the SD card from outside the case.
a.h.
Due to the weird back plastic design where it's in the middle and not at the bottom or the entire size of the screen and I don't know weird design the screen can tip forward if on slippery surface in glass can crack from frontwards tip not height drop a tipping over truly disappointed so far only found Replacements on eBay for roughly 60 2 $80 to replace with exact screen

FAQ

All questions

Can anybody tell me what the internal switch labeled "default" and "user control" is for? Perhaps I missed it in the documentation...

The 7" allows user controllable backlight using that switch and additional input. I subsequently purchased the 10.1" 1920x1200 and that was not working. Support has since confirmed it does not work on at least that 10.1" model, unsure about the other 10.1" models.

DC5521 compatible?

Yes, it is. It plugs into a battery output port and power cable with DC5521 compliant port. Here is the link - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ME3ZH7C/

Is the 12v power supply jack of the dc5521 type / dc5521 compliant so i can use with talentcell rechargeable 12v 6000mah lithium ion battery pack?

Yes, it is. It plugs into a battery output port and power cable with DC5521 compliant port. Here is the link - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ME3ZH7C/

I saw many people say the fan is too loud, is it true?

I’m running it next to a 3D printer so it won’t matter for me but when I was setting it up the pi, yes very noticeable. Not horrible, but noticeable. I thought the laptop behind it was getting hot and cranking it’s fan until I moved this screen and learned the extra sound was coming from it.

So if i connected it to an android , would touchscreen work , is a 5v portable battery needed ?

You would require drivers for the touchscreen to function. And yes external power is needed.

Screen dpi please, i don't see it in the manual?

It's 169 dpi dear.

I need to know what is required to install my pi4 8g into this screen?

hello dear, you need to insert your SD card first then install your pi4. other accessories are packed in the package.

Does this need its own power, or will connecting it to a 12 volt powerEd raspberRy be enough?

The monitor is supplied with a power supply that provides power to the monitor and the raspberry pi.

Can I project my screen

,bia the HDMI port

If i have an alternate 12v source for my project, how can i power my screen with it? can you only use the 12v dc port? if so, what size port/connector

dear, yes, only the 12v dc port. the size is 5.5*2.1mm. If you have any problems, please feel free to contact us via support@uperfectmonitor.com.

Does anyone know what screws (specs) are used for the enclosure? I would like to buy extra since I remove the back with some frequency.

I used M3 0.5 pitch. Length depends on your bracket. I also used spacers to not block the fan.

How do I bring up the keyboard mentioned in the description?

The unit does *not*, itself, contain a keyboard. In the description, they are describing the ease with which you can use the on-screen keyboard of your chosen OS (on the Pi or other connected device) since the screen is USB-based 10-point touch capable.

Will the touch function work hooked up to a windows pc as a second screen?

It will work if it is also connected to a usb port on the PC. There is a small connection cable (included with packaging) that adds a male usb cable interface to main board. That cable paired with a usb extension to plug into a port on pc will enable touch input. This will all be in addition to hdmi connection to pc.

when i connect with raspberry pi the screen setting menu not visible, it's so dark not able to adjust the screen brightness?

The arrow up on the back should adjust the brightness as soon as its powered on

Outer dimensions of the screen?

7 inches wide by 4 and 1/4 inches tall.

Does this have a hole for a camera or do I just have to mount it?

It depends on the camera you are using. There is no option to mount RPi Camera on the body and attach the use USB camera-using a click on top of the bezel

What is the input voltage range for the monitor? is the maximum 12v dc?

From support when I asked the same questions: "The input voltage of the monitor is 12V 2A, and the voltage can be driven within 11.5~12.5V. The inner and outer diameter of the plug contacting the monitor is 5.5*2.1"

No sound. volume is 100% in monitor setting and in os settings? what can i check?

hello dear, please these several methods: 1. connect to your pc and check in the display setting whether the sound of the external speaker is disabled; 2. Enter the display menu and set the volume to 100%; 3. Turn on the volume switch of the device; 4. Turn on the audio source of the audio source player; 5. Try changing the HDMI cable for connection. This may involve the debugging of the Raspberry Pi HDMI output software; 1. First, connect the computer according to the above to confirm whether there is sound from the monitor's speakers; 2. Download the program on the Raspberry Pi official website and reinstall it;

Does this come with built in wifi?

This unit is only a touchscreen with enclosure. You need to purchase a raspberry pi 4 to install inside this unit. The raspberry pi is what has WiFi built in.

if using the USB touch screen cable - does the cable get hidden under the case (internally) - or will cable show externally?

there is a cable you can solder onto the pi internally and doesn’t show outside the case. They also supply another cable that sneaks out of a provided hole in the case and plugs into one of the USB ports. You can set it up either way. The one that is external is very unobtrusive and can’t be seen from the front.
