Raspberry Pi Touch Display 2 (5") – Compact, sharp & multi-touch
The Raspberry Pi Touch Display 2 (5-inch portrait) is the latest official touch screen option from Raspberry Pi – ideal for compact, interactive installations with full plug-and-play convenience.
The 5-inch IPS screen offers a crisp 720 × 1280 pixel resolution (24-bit RGB) with five-finger multi-touch support and an on-screen keyboard. Thanks to its compact dimensions (active area approximately 62 × 110 mm) and anti-glare surface, the display is perfectly suited for embedded applications – from industrial dashboards to automation and smart home controls.
The connection to the Raspberry Pi is established via the MIPI DSI port using a ribbon cable, and power is supplied directly via the 40-pin GPIO header – without any additional driver configuration or calibration required. Developers benefit from high reusability: the same software runs on both the 7-inch and the new, smaller 5-inch versions.
Raspberry Pi guarantees production continuity until at least January 2030. With an attractive entry-level price, the 5-inch version offers excellent value compared to the larger model. Overall, the Raspberry Pi Touch Display 2 – 5" Portrait is a versatile, cost-effective, and ready-to-use solution for professional embedded systems in industrial B2B environments.
