The Adafruit 1.3" Colour TFT Bonnet for Raspberry Pi combines a 240×240 IPS TFT display with a 5-way joystick and two pushbuttons on a single plug-and-play bonnet. The display is driven by the ST7789 controller over SPI, delivering vibrant 16-bit colour with wide viewing angles.

A Qwiic/STEMMA QT I2C connector on the bottom makes it easy to add sensors and peripherals without soldering. The bonnet comes fully assembled — just plug it into any Raspberry Pi's GPIO header and install the Python software.
