Introduction
WildBerry 5inch DSI display is designed specifically for Raspberry Pi computers and connects directly through the MIPI DSI interface, providing excellent image quality, low latency, and responsive capacitive touch control without occupying the HDMI port.
The display supports the latest Raspberry Pi OS and works with Raspberry Pi 5, Raspberry Pi 4 Model B, and other compatible Raspberry Pi boards.
Feature
- Compact 5-Inch IPS Touchscreen：Enjoy a compact yet clear display for your Raspberry Pi projects. The 5-inch IPS screen features 800×480 physical resolution, delivering vibrant colors and wide viewing angles for dashboards, control panels, coding projects, IoT devices and portable applications.
- Native MIPI DSI Interface：Designed specifically for Raspberry Pi boards with a MIPI DSI interface. Connect the display directly to the DSI port without an HDMI cable, helping create a cleaner and more compact project setup.
- Compatible with Raspberry Pi 5/4/3/2：Designed for Raspberry Pi 5, Raspberry Pi 4 Model B, Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+, Raspberry Pi 3 Model B, Raspberry Pi 3 Model A+ and Raspberry Pi 2 Model B. The included DSI cable makes connection simple across supported Raspberry Pi models.
- IPS Display with Capacitive Touch：The IPS panel provides better color consistency and wider viewing angles than traditional TN panels, while the capacitive touchscreen allows intuitive finger control for supported applications. Ideal for interactive Raspberry Pi projects and user interfaces.
- GPIO-Free & Project Friendly：The display uses the Raspberry Pi’s dedicated DSI interface instead of occupying the GPIO header. Your GPIO pins remain available for sensors, HATs, motors, LEDs and other components, making it ideal for robotics, IoT, STEM education and DIY electronics.
