ARM Laptop screen upgrade
-
I am very happy with the product performance and overall experience, but I would like to upgrade the screen to some better one, maybe 2K. Is it possible to do manually? If yes, which panel would you recommend to use. Does the laptop use standard eDP connector or something special? Are hardware/drivers capable of driving high resolution screens?
Thanks in advance. -

Thank you very much for your support of Coolpi products. If you have a certain level of hands-on ability, the screen can be upgraded. Currently, the designed screen has a standard EDP interface, which allows for adaptive resolution without software modification, and can reach a maximum resolution of 4K (3840 * 2160). The difficulty here is the wiring issue. Currently, the LCD interface of FHD is eDP (2line) 30PIN, and most 2K 4K screens require EDP (4line) 40PIN, so upgrading requires modifying the wiring. If you are not in a hurry, we will arrange to customize a 2K 4K universal 40pin ribbon cable.

Currently, in addition to the LCD of the machine itself, we have also adapted a touch LCD, and the ribbon cables have been customized.

The PIN definition on the motherboard end is shown in the following figure：

@george got it, thanks! Looking forward for proper wiring solution. Meanwhile, I'll try to put together some custom wiring.
