7" Nextion HMI LCD Touch Display

Works perfect, good quality. I had even a crack in the corner, but it keeps working perfectly. The programming with the nextion editor is easy. But the communication with an arduino was a bit of a headache. After a while i realized a touchscreen controlled stepper motor driven system.

The notifications and process was seamless and helpful

Love this display. You can program the display to do so many things, taking the load off of the Arduino. I am waiting for Robotshop.ca to add to their catalog, the 7" ENHANCED Nextion display. The price difference between the Basic and Enhanced is less that $15.00! The Enhanced has RTC (Real Time Clock), which for many Arduino programmers, is very important when you need to track date and time in real time. The Enhanced versions also have more than double the memory, double the flash and double the speed. For the minor price difference, I don't know why RobotShop doesn't get these in stock and on their list ASAP. These obviously will sell much faster than the basic. For me, I'll wait for RobotShop's buyers to get with it and get these Nextion Enhanced displays in stock, because I really don't want to order directly from China. Honestly, I don't trust doing that. Still, RobotShop ROCKS! :)

While waiting for 2, 7" Enhanced screens to be delivered, I figured I'd buy one of these, even thought it's "Basic." I want to get started on my project that requires the speed of the Enhanced screen. First, as usual, RobotShop got it shipped and delivered FAST!!!! Even during Covid, the speed is impressive. (just 2-3 days or so). When I first connected the screen, it did startle me because the LED lighting was flickering and the Demo would reboot the screen over and over. I thought for sure that I got a dud screen. But then, I realized 2 things. 1) I needed to provide the screen 5V at 450mA. I was only supplying around 100mA. Thus, flickering and resetting. Then, I threw together a quick test with the Nextion Editor with a full screen, very colorful picture, some animated pictures, 2 buttons, a progress bar, a bunch of larger-profile fonts (just to take up memory) and some other elements. When I sent this test to the display, using Nextion editor 0.53! (not 0.58 which is super buggy), the display went through a firmware update! THIS IS GOOD! Since then, the screen has been running 24/7 under test and has had zero problems. I really REALLY love these screens. So easy to use. Oh and for those of you who also love these screens but are burdened by the HUGE Nextion Library files, you can FULLY use these screens WITHOUT A LIBRARY! Just search YouTube for Nextion without library. You should find some seriously amazing tutorials by Cheap Controls. This man shows you how to do everything without libraries. Not only do you save tons of memory but it's much more efficient and faster to send/receive to the Nextion. Hope that helps.

! purchase two 3.2E and one 7 inch non E All are working fine, Seller ships fast and reliably
