Defect in Adafruit 1.9" 320x170 Color IPS TFT Display - ST77

Post by mdede »

I recently purchased the Adafruit 1.9" 320x170 Color IPS TFT Display - ST7789 (5394) and I noticed one corner has a blank spot that will not display anything. A small circle emanating from the top right corner when the display is oriented with the pins to the left. I feel this is a defect because I do not see it show up on the video of a working one on the website. Is this a defect?

So, the display "works" as expected except for that black corner? Is is consistently the same size regardless of what's being displayed?

Yes it is the same size size regardless of what is written to the screen, text or graphics. However the lower half of the screen does seem to have something strange with it as well. almost like half of the lines do not turn off??
