The DIYmalls 1.44" TFT LCD Display Screen Module is a compact and versatile display solution designed for various microcontrollers, including Arduino and STM32. With a resolution of 128x128 and support for 65K RGB colors, this module is perfect for DIY projects. The pack includes two displays, allowing for enhanced project possibilities. Operating at 3.3V, it requires minimal additional components for integration with 5V systems.

Decent little screens, easy to work with, but be ready to make a voltage divider for 5V boards.
Pay close attention to the product listing & description, the data carrying lines on this model of screen are only rated for 3.3v logic and you’ll need to implement voltage divider resistors or another voltage limiting circuit in order to use this with IO from 5V based microcontrollers. It’d be nice if a few of the required resistors were included alongside the screens but it's not a huge deal. With that said, though, there really should be a physical warning included for those who may not have noticed the warning in the product listing.It's really difficult to show or convey the look and feel of the screen without the protective film on it, it's a very matte and slightly textured surface finish. The build quality on the two screens is spot on without any obvious defects on any of the soldering or components. They both connect just fine to my test board and I do look forward to implementing it into some of my future electronics projects.These are a wonderful fit for battery powered applications, though I personally haven’t measured these exact screens, but the same ones from other vendors are rated at around 50mA. The first major use-case that comes to mind is to use them as a name-tag or online avatar display if you’re going to a convention or a meet up with people who may not immediately recognise you outside of chat rooms, discords and other online communities. Of course they’re entirely usable for more permanent applications and the limit is ultimately your imagination.Voltage concerns aside, these are really nice little screens that I will enjoy putting to work and I have no other real concerns about them electronically, they’re well-made and they arrived in appropriate packaging that kept them in mint condition. However, the price point is significantly higher than what I would pay for these from other sources, for around the same price I could order six of these screens from China. If you’re okay with the pricing, I have no problems recommending these if you want something on short notice to tinker with.

Nice well made screens, quality circuit board and pins.It took me a while to get the wiring right for a Raspberry Pi (Pi 3 Model A+, not included), and then adapt some C# sample code, but I could then manipulate the screen with the ImageSharp library. The colour conversion takes a bit of getting used to in code.The resolution is actually 128x160, not 128 square as stated in the product description. In code you can choose the orientation of your image.
