ntsc pal television tft display 2.0 diagonal made in china
Yes, this is an adorable miniature television! The visible display measures only 2.0" diagonal, the TFT comes with a NTSC/PAL driver board. The display is very easy to use - simply connect 6-12VDC to the red and black wires, then connect a composite video source to the yellow and black wire. Voila, a television display! There"s a little button to adjust the LED backlight brightness (5 levels) - there is no other adjustment available but we found that the color and contrast look great right out of the box.
To demonstrate it, we took some photos with the display connected to a Raspberry Pi, but it will also work connected to any analog composite-video output such as a YBox or Propeller w/Video out. It will not work with a device that only outputs VGA, HDMI or any other digital video signal.
Please note, these miniature displays are very delicate and require care to avoid ripping the delicate flex connector. These are best used by electronics geeks who have experience and are comfortable working with delicate electronic components. WE CANNOT REPLACE DAMAGED DISPLAYS if you are not careful and rip the flex connector!

No, it’s no mistake. I am really using it. Just like any other handset, as T818 can be used, it even has to offer some pleasant experiences sometimes. Before going into any details let’s check the phone’s price: it’s around €245-€290 EUR, and now we can start checking out what do we get for our money.
Above the huge display there is (from left to right) an Anycool logo, a speaker, the secondary camera and a Bluetooth logo. Let’s take a look at these a bit, as the function of the secondary camera is not very clear for me. It has VGA resolution, it works, we can take pictures with it, but what’s the point, when there is another on the back? T818 is not a 3G device; hence it cannot be used for video calls, so I can’t think of anything else that the very purpose of this camera was to deceive the buyer, so he thinks that the phone has support for third generation networks.
Below the back cover the white battery is sitting, while underneath this we can find the two SIMs and the microSD card (included in the package), which is 256 MB large theoretically, while the phone’s software tells us that it has the widely-used size of 400 megabytes… We should note that this small cheating won’t do any good to the fact that the internal memory has a size of 200 KB.
After switching on the phone, the user is greeted by the magnificent landscape of the Sun going down at an ocean, and after some Anycool animations we find ourselves at the main screen. There can be no complaints about the QVGA display, as it has a clear, nice picture. The static shortcut icons, characteristic for CECT devices, are in the bottom row. These let us access the main screen, the phonebook, messaging, the dial screen and musical features.
There are some other minor features left to mention. MP4 playback has some meaning on such a large display, and even viewing pictures is better than on the back of a compact camera. I couldn’t find the keylock during the whole testing period, and this is something very important in case of a touchscreen phone, so I don’t think that I just overlooked it. There are, however, environmental profiles, the phone can ring and vibrate at the same time, but I’ve been afraid even at volume level 1, that my neighbors will leave their homes through the balcony in panic.
There is not even EDGE support, only GPRS. We have such a huge display and a WAP browser – strange couple, I must say. We shouldn’t want to view HTML content, as we can’t. Theoretically the phone also works in CDMA networks, but we didn’t have the opportunity of trying this. The USB cable functioned properly; after connecting it, the phone asks if we want to use it as an external drive (meaning that it will display the content of the memory card), as a modem, or as a webcam. This latter feature has been proprietary of Alcatel (can you guess where are they made?) phones until now.
Summary? This stuff is aggressive. It made some heavily mixed impressions on me. There are some features in which it is completely unique (control from distance, sound quality, display size, battery), while in other terms it is very weak (camera, data transfer, button layout). My hands were shaking to give the phone a Cool product award, but the price of €245-€290 EUR is very much, even if it’s a unique handset.
