Looks good. I made one using a waveshare screen and a raspberry pi zero. It cost almost the same as your retail price, but it didnt look this good.

Cool! What are you displaying on it? I am always adding for new use cases to add as apps to my device.

I was displaying a list of tasks from a Todo App via API, clock and calendar, and times in different cities where my company had offices.

Showing a clock ended up being bad for the display as it quickly degenerated. You calendar view is great.

Yes - Todoist! The screen was a waveshare which sadly degraded sooner than I had hoped.
