Raspberry Pi Touch Display - The 7” touchscreen display for Raspberry Pi - SC1227
This seven-inch, 800 x 480 touchscreen display lets you create interactive Raspberry Pi projects like tablets, entertainment systems, and information dashboards. It’s powered from your Raspberry Pi; no separate power supply is required.
Raspberry Pi OS provides touchscreen drivers with support for ten-finger touch and an on-screen keyboard, giving you full functionality without the need to connect a keyboard or mouse.
The display connects to Raspberry Pi via an adapter board that handles power and signal conversion. Only two connections to your Raspberry Pi are required: power from the GPIO port, and a ribbon cable that connects to the DSI port on all Raspberry Pi computers except for Raspberry Pi 400 and the Raspberry Pi Zero line.

Great screen, bad setup
So, I actually like the screen. It works and looks great. The design of the screen hardware, however, is less than good. If you attach the Pi to the display hardware, as intended, the ribbon cable blocks access to the SD port. Not a big deal if you plan to just leave the SD card in it. But let's say you have multiple boot SD cards, like Raspian on one, RetroPi on another. Swapping out can be difficult. If you also use the case (for sale here) or 3D print your own similar, the case will actually push the ribbon cable tighter against the machine making EVEN MORE difficult to swap out. In fact, impossible without taking the back of the case off.
