Simple to use display and bright
I liked this display quite a bit. It is very simple to use and works quite well. It was connected to Arduino Uno Wifi R2 and worked pretty much straightaway. The only issue I had is that the version of Arduino that I use has SPI pins different from the regular Arduino. After I figured that out it was very easy.Display is quite small, but very bright and sharp. It is not color display but has two colors - top is orange and bottom is blue. But you can order single color display as well. Over all I am very pleased and would definitely order it for other projects.One caveat is that you need to have a good eyesight to read it as the writing is very small. Font size can be increased but then not much would fit on the screen. Great for status display that you do not need to read often. Also can do graphics.

Works as expected, and a fun display to add to any project.
Works like a charm, and so far has been a reliable component of my Raspiberry Pi Pico W project.

Hardware is excellent, library docs need to be better!
I bought this last year just on a whim, messing around, and finally came up with a use for it. Screwing around with a Seeediuno, making my own auto-ranging ohm meter (almost have it calibrated properly here!). Display is super crisp and super easy to read (the "blooming" around the text is the photo, and not reality).I've read some other reviews about the "small text". Well, the text size is what you make it with the libraries that you use. This display is a DEVICE, YOU tell it what to display. I use VSCode with PlatformIO for all of my development needs, and using the u8g2 library, they have a bunch of fonts. Here are two different sizes, the larger being a double height/width using the u8x8 portion of the library which is text only.I think I'll stock up on a couple of more of these just so I have them laying around.

functions very well, incredibly inexpensive, will buy again
This screen functions very well and is incredibly inexpensive. There are plenty of libraries available. It is a super easy way to add a cheap GUI or readout to your next project. And at the price really why not> Just be ready for less-than-perfect work and materials.I only needed a very simple numeric of alphanumeric readout and was considering an old-school 7-segment or 14-segment display, or an LCD character display. As this small OLED display was actually cheaper than those other options I chose to give a shot; I am super happy that I did. it's so much more flexible than either the 14-segment or LCD characters would have been and the text is really sharp, bright, and very readable.The only downside that I ran across (as was to be expected for a $6 OLED screen) was second rate materials/build quality. I had to desolder once (wanted to flip the orientation of the connector I was using) and lost a pad in the process... it can be overcome, but was a pain. So solder in your pins/connector(s) and then leave 'em alone, this board does not appreciate being reworked.All that said I will likely buy one again if I'm in need of a simple, inexpensive display.

Works Well
Paul McWhorter (toptechboy.com) has a number of videos covering Arduinos, Picos, and so forth. He suggests the SunFounder Kepler kit to get the different devices. While it includes a 2 line LCD display he strongly suggests getting a OLED device and uses it in many of the tutorials. These modules work great.

Awesome and Cheap
I used this for an Arduino project of mine. I used this for displaying text-based characters and it got the job done. The resolution is great for text-based characters, and I assume it's similar for shapes and other displays too. I love having two colors also, that feature was useful for my project. Many libraries work well with this, but if you want to save on memory only get a text-based one as that is all you'll need. Definitely recommend!Tip: If you want certain inputs (like from a weight or heat sensor) to be in one place, such as only appearing on the top, then use commands like oled.setCursor(0,0). I went from the display being totally clogged with data to data only being at the top.Hope you have fun using this.

Works great
Got it up and running with little fuss on an STM32 development board.It should be noted that the I2C address is 0x3C, not 0x78 which is printed on the back of the board. I got it running with the Adafruit SSD1306 library and the much more lightweight SSD1306Ascii library. I didn't try using the library recommended by the seller, but don't see why you would when these libraries work and are better supported.This display is very small, and has a small yellow only line on top, and a larger blue only area below it. This was pretty clearly described by the seller, but from reading the comments it doesn't sound like everyone got the memo so just be aware of that. Overall it's a great little display for pretty dang cheap!

smaller than expected
I didn't pay attention to the physical dimensions listed for the product. This is a really small screen. I'm not going to return it but it wasn't what I was expecting.I'm sure I'll find a use for it eventually.
