Our take on the 3.5" Capacitive Touch Display (F) for Raspberry Pi (320x480)

This is a Waveshare 3.5-inch IPS touchscreen for the Raspberry Pi, wired over SPI and connected through pogo pins that press onto the GPIO header from underneath the board. Because the header stays free, most HATs and coolers still fit, which is the main thing that sets it apart from stacked 3.5-inch screens. The panel is 320x480 with 170-degree viewing angles, 262K colors and 5-point capacitive touch behind toughened glass. It is aimed at Pi 5, Pi 4 and Zero owners building compact dashboards, control panels or handheld projects, and a 13-pin rear connector plus cable lets it work with other boards.

Pros
  • Pogo-pin mounting leaves most HATs and coolers usable
  • 5-point capacitive touch behind toughened glass
  • IPS panel with 170-degree viewing angles
  • Works with Pi 5, Pi 4 and Zero, plus other boards via the 13-pin connector
  • 262K colors and 320x480 resolution suit simple UIs
Cons
  • 320x480 is low for detailed desktop use
  • SPI connection limits refresh rate compared with DSI or HDMI screens
  • Pogo-pin contact depends on a clean, well-seated fit
  • Setup needs driver and configuration work in the OS

About the 3.5" Capacitive Touch Display (F) for Raspberry Pi (320x480)

This is a 3.5" IPS touch display for Raspberry Pi projects. It has a resolution of 320x480, 262K colors and 170° viewing angles. The display refreshes at 60Hz and is controlled over SPI.

The display connects to the Raspberry Pi's GPIO pins with pogo pins from the underside of the board. This leaves the GPIO header free, so most HATs and coolers can still be used. It is designed mainly for mounting on a Raspberry Pi 5, 4 or Zero.

The touch panel is toughened glass with 5-point capacitive touch and a fast response. A 13-pin connector on the rear and the included assembly cable let you use the display with other development boards. The manufacturer's wiki provides setup options for Raspberry Pi and ESP32-S3. Other boards and platforms may work, but they need your own code. The PCB has an immersion gold finish.

Questions and answers

Does it block the GPIO header?
No. It connects with pogo pins from the underside of the Pi, so the header stays free and most HATs and coolers still fit.
Which Raspberry Pi models does it fit?
It is designed for the Raspberry Pi 5, Pi 4 and Zero. Other development boards can use it through the 13-pin connector on the rear with the included cable.

Over SPI. That keeps the setup simple but caps refresh rate, so it suits menus and dashboards more than video.
How many touch points does it support?
Five-point capacitive touch, under toughened glass.
