Our Review

After integrating the 5pcs 1602 LCD 2004 20x4 i2c LCD Display Adapter IIC//TWI/SPI/I2C Serial Interface Module Shield Compatible with Arduino UNO R3 MEGA2560 into several test builds, we found it to be a capable component for the price. Key specs include Display Type: TFT LCD, Resolution: 480x320, Size: 2.4 inch.

Display quality was good for the price. Colors are vibrant and viewing angles are acceptable. The SPI interface delivers fast enough refresh rates for UI elements and sensor dashboards.

Integration with Arduino and ESP32 was hassle-free. Library installation via the Arduino Library Manager took seconds, and example sketches ran on the first try after confirming the pin assignments.

The 5pcs 1602 LCD 2004 20x4 i2c LCD Display Adapter IIC//TWI/SPI/I2C Serial Interface Module Shield Compatible with Arduino UNO R3 MEGA2560 earns its place in the parts bin. Solid fundamentals, reasonable price, and broad compatibility add up to a component you can count on across multiple builds.

What We Like

  • SPI interface supports fast screen refresh rates
