NX3224T028 - Nextion 2.8" Basic Series HMI Touch Display

I was a bit nervous about soldering and wiring this up, but the 2.8-inch display is surprisingly plug-and-play for a hobbyist like me. The touch response is immediate and the built-in examples made it easy to start building my own interface right away.

The page transitions are snappy and the touch response is immediate, which made setting up my first project a breeze. Was worried about the 2.8” size being too small, but the text is sharp enough that it works perfectly for my countertop display.

Took me a while to get the serial wiring right, but once I did, the touch response feels instant and the editor's drag-and-drop for buttons made my first project way less painful. The 2.8-inch size is perfect for a compact control panel I’m building.
