The display is a 3.5" 480x320 resistive touch TFT panel, which connects to the Raspberry Pi via GPIO pin header and communicates via SPI. The resistive touch is surprisingly nippy, accurately registering gentle touches on the Raspberry Pi OS desktop. A small plastic stylus is included in the kit for interacting with the screen if you'd prefer. As you said, i was unable to find a "closed" case including space for a recharging battery with a screen ( with ou without touch). The camera area of the front comes with three different face plates, one that has room for the camera and is flat, one that has no camera hole and one that has a camera hole but also lego-compatible studs you can build on.

In the case of Raspberry Pi screens, sizes tend to be smaller compared to full-fat PC monitors and are more in line with those found on tablets, in the range of 4-inches to 10-inches in a lot of cases, although it’s entirely possible to use laptop-sized screens such as 13-inches or 15-inches with no issues. We’ve included a couple of those above for those among you that require a large viewing area for their Raspberry Pi project. This head turning case really stands out from the crowd thanks to a gem pattern design on top of the sandblasted silver anodised aluminum. The case has a textured matte finish and clean edges. Around the case are cutouts for all the major ports on the Pi. Camera and Display cables will need to be routed via the slot about the micro SD cutout. A separate GPIO slot is low on the case, requiring a breakout board for general use.

It interfaces with the Raspberry Pi via HDMI with a nifty little micro-adapter that plugs into both the port on the Pi and screen simultaneously without miles of cabling. The two standoff mounting mechanism allows the Pi to sit behind the screen with minimal setup. The screen is compatible with the Raspberry Pi Model B+, Raspberry Pi 2 Model B, and Raspberry Pi 3 Model B and Model B+. Lastly, the Raspberry Pi 7″ Touch Screen Display is not only an official RPi product but is among the most cost-effective ways to spruce up your Pi project with a decent quality screen. This metal case and 3.5" TFT Touchscreen has been custom-designed to fit the Raspberry Pi 4 and is a great combination of a robust housing with a small, clear display and touch control! Unlike cases designed just for the Pi itself, there aren’t many touchscreen display case options for the official screen. For some reason the touchscreen case market hasn’t taken off in the same way. Those looking for a screen with a size typically found on a laptop should find plenty to be excited about with the SunFounder Raspberry Pi Display and its 1080p resolution, 60 Hz refresh rate, and integrated ports/controls.

The Pibow Coupe doesn’t come with any cooling solution, but the CPU isn’t covered by anything so you can attach a heatsink, a fan HAT or Pimoroni’s own Fan Shim (our favorite of these choices), which just slides over the first 12 GPIO pins, but allows you to put a HAT on top of it.

Second set of threaded m2.5 mounting points can be used to mount your own development board ( HAT compatible mounting points ) The Retroflag NESPi looks just like an old-fashioned Nintendo Entertainment System console from the 1980s, but inside, there’s room for a Raspberry Pi 2 or 3 (Pi 4 owners will have to look elsewhere).
