In this video we review the 3.2 Nextion display, a very useful touch display for our Arduino and ESP8266 projects. \r

Hello guys, I am Nick and welcome to educ8s.tv a channel that is all about DIY electronics projects with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ESP8266 and other popular boards. In this video we are going to use this Nextion display with Arduino and the Wemos D1 mini board. We are going to see what it offers, what makes it different from the other touch displays and we are going to build a simple weather station with it. Lets start.\r
\r
When I published the video about my top 5 Arduino displays a lot of the viewers suggested that I should try the Nextion displays as well. There are a lot of Nextion displays. The smaller one is the 2.4” inch display, and the larger one is the 7” display. I decided to try the 3.2” Nextion display. It costs around 23$ and Banggood.com website was kind enough to provide me a sample unit in order to test it and share my opinion about it with you. You can find a link for it in the description of the video.\r

As we said before this is a 3.2” touch screen and it offers a resolution a 400x240 pixels. At the back we can see that there is a 4 pin connector and an SD card slot. We only need connect 4 wires to make it work. Lets power it up at once. I connect the Red wire to 5V and the Black wire to GND on this small board which comes with the display. Next, I connect the board to a 5V power bank. As you can see, the display turns on, and we can use the demo program that is preloaded. \r
