Awesome Extras
This 3.2" IPS display from Waveshare isn't just another small Raspberry Pi display - this one is a little different, offering some unique features which add convenience and flexibility.
The screen itself is a crisp IPS 800x480 LCD with wide 160° viewing angles, making it useful for all sorts of projects from retro gaming to simple terminal usage. A nice feature Waveshare have added here is physical control of the brightness of the display via the two easy-to-access buttons on the side of the panel.
The display is also driven by HDMI rather than the GPIO pins. This is useful for those times where you need to keep your Raspberry Pi elsewhere in your project/enclosure, or even for using the display with different HDMI development boards. If you'd rather keep the display on top of the Raspberry Pi, mounting standoffs and HDMI PCB adapters are included in the box for a compact and cable-free connection.
With no GPIO connection driving the display, Waveshare has utilised Pogo-pins to receive power from your Raspberry Pi's power supply - again removing the need for messy cable clutter or a separate PSU. There's also a USB-C connection to allow you to power the screen from other development boards that can't make use of the Pogo pins.
A unique approach to mini displays and a great set of features, giving this screen the flexibility to be used in lots of different scenarios with different controller boards.
Some simple configuration is required - please see the product Wiki

3.2" IPS HDMI LCD Display for Raspberry Pi (800x480)
Honestly i was a little bit disappointed for two reasons, 1. there is a noticeable lag on the display output for some reason which makes things like moving a cursor around feel like jelly and 2. the screen has a matte film on it which gives the distracting scintillating effect you get from an lcd display when there is grease on it, except its 'normal' for this one (yes i did remove the shipping protector film, theres another one under that). I didnt have the guts to try and peel the matte film since there is a good chance its actually the polariser film. So overall id say its a good enough display for stats like a pihole or something, but not good enough if you want to do something interactive with it like make a little gaming device etc. That said ofc the res and framerate are much better than youd get with a GPIO display, since it runs off the HDMI, just a shame about the lag and weird screen film.

I built a thermal imaging camera and I wanted a local screen for it, this fits to a tee as I didn't have to use the connectors, just the HDMI out, it was supplied with adapters but I ended up using a small cable so that I could use it on a different box. overall a great purchase

A surprisingly great little display, considering its price point: it's vivid and sharp!
It's a little odd that is default mode is a portrait, but not an issue by any means
