When choosing a visual component to add some extra “Oomph” to your project, it can be tricky with so many different options for Displays of all different types. However, one display that certainly stands out from the rest (and makes your choice of what display to use easier) is AMOLED, as these types of displays are difficult to ignore, with striking contrasts, vivid colours and a level of quality that captures and holds your attention.
This is why we knew that we NEEDED to stock some of these 5.5inch HDMI AMOLED 1080x1920 Displays, which are an amazing alternative to LCD and OLED Displays, taking some of the best features of OLED but including Active Matrix technology for a wide range of very cool benefits. These AMOLED displays are not better than LCD Displays in all regards though, but for most applications that won’t need to be consistently on for very long periods of 100 hours or more, AMOLED displays are definitely our preferred choice – And now they’re actually affordable for hobbyist use!
While many people don’t really understand the excitement revolving around AMOLED displays, the key factors that truly differentiate AMOLED technology from the many alternatives include the following three distinct characteristics:
These are the key factors that really make these 5.5inch HDMI AMOLED 1080x1920 Displays some of our favourites from the entire Displays Category. But just remember that because of the above features, AMOLED displays are also more prone to burn-ins and permanent “scarring” from a consistent colour over a long period of time. Fortunately, very simple tools like screensavers exist to help reduce this, but if it’s a serious concern for a project that need to display the exact same image over a long period of time, then you may in fact want to choose old-school, reliable LCD Displays to avoid burning-in your high-quality AMOLED.
Please Note: Due to the extremely vivid colours and contrasts of AMOLED displays, if a static image is displayed on the screen for 168 hours or longer, the image can burn-in and leave permanent scarring or discolouration. Always keep this in mind for semi-permanent displays, and don’t be scared to use a screensaver or sleep mode to keep your screen fresh and vividly colourful.

When it comes to producing unique electronics components and modules, there are very few brands that can provide the quality that Waveshare can. Based in the Futian District in Shenzhen, China, Waveshare are experts in developing electronics to a high standard of quality, which have been thoroughly tested to work seamlessly with corresponding development platforms and systems – such as the E-Ink HATs for Raspberry Pi’s.
What we love most about Waveshare is how they are dedicated to providing quality products, and have moved away from the typical “Made in China” stigma – cheap products with cheap parts and components. Instead, Waveshare understand the value of supplying quality products and building sustainable relationships with international resellers and distributors. They know that consistent quality will result in consistent business, and as such they always ensure strict quality control for each and every product that comes out of the manufacturing plant.
We are always excited to peruse through their vast catalogue of exciting new products to find unique modules, components or even entire development boards that are designed with quality in mind. Because we know that every cent that we spend with Waveshare will be well-spent, with each product that order adding real value to our own catalogue of products.
