I got the HyperPixel display as soon as Pimoroni flagged it on Twitter but had trouble at first with my Pi. I used a fresh install of the latest NOOBS 2.4.0 plus a update first and on running the one-line install (on GitHub) my Pi engaged the display at every next boot but crashed. Using the Excellent Pimoroni forum, Gadgetoid put me wise to a problem with the NOOBS version and suggested using Jessie with Pixel instead. Used Etcher to make the micro-SD, updated with APT-GET then ran the one-line GitHub install and ... Bob's your proverbial uncle ... worked a treat. The screen is bright very colourful, sharp and quite readable. A valuable addition to the Pi HAT family. 10/10 (and 10/10 for the forum too)
