The smallest and worst HDMI display
This isn't so much an HDMI display as an I2C display utilizing the DDC channel in the HDMI interface as the I2C bus. I've seen folks utilizing this on the Raspberry Pi as a generic I2C bus as well.

Eh, that's like saying phones don't charge over USB, just DC. We're referring to the physical connector more than to the typical bus.

Yeah I dunno, when I started reading I thought he had found a display that was coincidentally HDMI-compatible with the display HDMI signals.
It's at least misleading.

It's not misleading to anyone casually familiar with those little OLED boards. They are cheap.

Its not quite the same. I don't need to download a special host script to charge my phone on a friend's computer.

I needed to download a special host script to charge a friend's iPad from my desktop.
