2.9" Flexible 296x128 Monochrome eInk / ePaper Display

The 2.9" Flexible eInk Display is a monochrome (black and white) e-paper panel with 296×128 resolution. Once an image is displayed, it remains visible even with all power removed — delivering high-contrast, daylight-readable output that looks like printed paper.

The flexible construction allows the display to be curved or mounted on non-flat surfaces, such as a stiff bracelet for a watch project. It uses the UC8151D driver chipset and is compatible with Adafruit's CircuitPython and Arduino libraries via the Adafruit_GFX interface. An eInk Breakout Friend is required to drive this display.

Key Features

  • 2.9" eInk Display – 296×128 monochrome pixels on a white background
  • Flexible Panel – Can be curved to fit non-flat surfaces
  • Zero Power Image Retention – Displayed image persists without power
  • High Contrast – Excellent daylight readability, looks like printed paper
  • Fast Refresh – Monochrome updates in a few seconds
  • UC8151D Driver – Supported by Adafruit EPD library with Adafruit_GFX compatibility

Ideal For

  • Wearable displays and curved surfaces
  • Low-power signage and labels
  • E-reader and information display projects
  • Battery-powered status indicators

Package Contents

  • 1× 2.9" Flexible Monochrome eInk Display
Warning: This display is flexible but not designed for constant flexing. Do not flex during display updates. Avoid flexing where the orange connector cable meets the display — the chip connections are fragile. Affix to a stable backing to reduce stress. A minimum bend radius of approximately 10mm is suggested for the display panel.
Note: This is the display panel only. An eInk Breakout Friend (sold separately) is required to drive this display.
