2 is on top, 1 is on bottom.

Dimensions: Width x Height x Depth (Depth includes the actual screen, too)
Screen 1:
Dimensions: 71 x 61 x 9 mm

Screen 2:
Dimensions: 90 x 52 x 11 mm

The ribbon cables on both of these are very short and just long enough for the PCB to be behind the screen just like how it's packaged.

I prefer the second screen over the first because you can adjust the brightness and everything. In the picture, the second screen seems too green but I had default values in and I can change the Hue to make it look better. Resolution seems way better on the second, also, and there are no horizontal lines that appear on the first screen.
