GFX HAT – 128×64 backlit LCD

GFX HAT: LCD Display with RGB Backlight and Touch Keys

The display and interface of the GFX HAT are perfect for your Raspberry Pi projects, as its 128×64 pixel 2.15″ LCD screen not only features an attractive six-zone RGB backlight, but also includes six capacitive touch buttons.

Although the display is similar to the Display-O-Tron HAT, the GFX HAT offers the flexibility of individual pixels, allowing you to display more complex graphics and more detailed characters. It also retains the very useful capacitive touch buttons for input and navigation.
