Is there any news on when the EVE4 displays will be available for purchase?

We are finalizing several designs, what display and quantity are you looking for?

Thank you,

I'm looking for one off prototype of the EVE4 7" display 1024x600, non touch - its the only EVE display I can find which is 7" and has square dot pitch!

They are not quite square but much better

7" 1024x600: 0.1506 x 0.1432 mm so 0.951 ratio
7" 800x480: 0.1923 x 0.1784 mm so 0.928 ratio

I am interested in buying one EVE4 7" 1024x600 as well, only cap-touch.
An EVE4-70G-IPS 1024x600 would be sweet - yes, the non "x" variant would be fine. :-)

Okay, what I am really hoping to buy sooner than later is an EVE4-101G-IPS. :-)
And 1024x600 would be fine.

We should have the 10.1" mid December, the final design is going out for production this week, EVE4x-70 should be going out in the next few days as well.

Getting there... we have been very busy with many custom projects, but getting there. Hopefully early January.

We have the EVE4x-40G 720x720, EVE4x-70 1024x600, EVE4x-101 1280x800 in the pipe.

Itching in my fingers to order a 10" IPS just for fun... Looks like some wifi/BT addon on the top right?

@Henry: I hope you send Rudolph a free one. He's your best support guy!

Regards, Martin

The top right has an ESP32 module.

We have collaborated with Rudolph, and I plan on sending some EVE4x units his way.

Is there any possibility of updating the tech specs on the website? For example the 7 inch version looks like it has dimensions for 5inch screen. Ideally I’d like to prepare a pc mounting board and sort out the connector from my pcb to the screen.

Have a great holiday 👍

Hi Henry, is it possible to release any technical documents on the 7 and 10.1 EVE4 displays yet? The PCB photo above suggests that the 10.1 is the same height as the 7" display but wider...
