A high-resolution 8", IPS, 1024x768, HDMI display, with Pimoroni-made display driver board and keypad, that's perfect for building into projects like arcade cabinets, or just use it as a handy display for your Raspberry Pi!
This new 8" display is a step up from our previous one, with a higher-resolution 1024x768 IPS screen, and a display driver board and keypad designed and made by Pimoroni. It's the same, good old 4:3 aspect ratio, making it ideal for retro gaming builds.
There's even a little keypad (and cable) included to control the display and navigate the menu options, and we've broken those pins out on the board too, so you can use your own buttons if you like.
Just supply the display driver board with 5V and at least 780mA through a micro-USB cable or power supply and you're good to go!

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

HDMI
HDMI is a common digital video and audio connection used by computers, media players, and many displays. If a display kit has HDMI input, it is usually much easier to test with a single-board computer because it can act like a normal monitor.
IPS
IPS is a type of LCD panel that keeps colours and contrast more consistent when viewed from an angle. This matters for small displays that may be mounted in a dashboard, handheld project, or enclosure where the viewer is not always looking straight on.
