Problem with these small displays is that lot of them are pretty bad.

It's possible to find good cheap (~$8-10) IPS panels with parallel 24-bit interface with wide viewing angles and good contrast, but these common cheap SPI ones are not it.

A lot of people would be less interested if the author moved the camera a bit from the perfect 90° position. :)

Generally I agree with you, however the ones from waveshare are surprisingly good, albeit with a 16bit (RGB565) interface.

haha, it's actually got decent viewing angles as it's ips. I do admit I should have shopped around a bit more though, lots of cheaper options out there.

Good for you. :)
