Mia H. ★★★★★

The 4-bit parallel mode worked fine in my Arduino project without extra wiring. Characters are crisp and clear even at an angle. Very happy with how it displays text.

Chloe ★★★★★

The blue backlight is properly bright without bleeding, and the white transmissive characters stay crisp even at steep viewing angles. Hooked it up in 4-bit mode and it fired right up with zero fuss on the first try.

Leo ★★★★★

Pulled this up on a breadboard with an Arduino and was surprised how crisp the white text looks against the blue backlight. The 4-bit mode saved me a few GPIO pins, which was nice.
