Review: Great! - Using this on a teensy 4.1. Had a few problems at first: ST7796 driver didn't work, so used Arduino_ILI9341 - works fine! Runs up to 110mhz spi on my teensy with good clean soldering and short cables. FT6336U didn't work at first - bad driver code from github (aselectroworks/Arduino-FT6336U - don't use this doesn't work - has a 10ms delay in the readbyte code e.t.c. lol), so cobbled together my own from github "strange-v/FT6X36" driver. Had trouble with that as well - had to delay 300ms on power up before using the FT - else it would't init at all. Also had problems with the FT cutting out while SPI display was updating - All these problems were caused because my CPT reset pin wasn't being used - did not connect it and so it was floating and SPI triggered it - just tie it to VCC if not using it. You can also tie the LCD reset to GND and CS to VCC with a 4.7k resistor if your only using 1 display. Now everything is working great - it's a great display with a nice slick and easy CPT touch interface! With LVGL I get 30fps no problem without using the fast t4 code library.

## Features

- 3.5-inch color screen, upgraded to use IPS full-viewing panel, 320x480 resolution, 300cd/m2 brightness and up to 16.7M RGB colors to ensure excellent display effects.
- Newly upgraded to a capacitive touch panel, the touch is more sensitive and precise compared to the resistive screen.
- On-board level conversion circuit, compatible with 5V and 3.3V MCUs. Adopt 4-wire SPI serial bus to save I/O pins.
- The input supports 2.54 pin header interface and FPC extension interface, and comes with a micro TF card slot for easy storage expansion.
- Provide rich sample learning programs (ESP32/STM32/Arduino R3&Mega2560/C51/CH32), provide underlying driver technical support, and update the information online.
