Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

That's the spec for the controller chip. It's not for a display.

TBH without an explanation and an ali link that's a pain to figure out.

Don't hold your breath.
I don't think any capacitive touch controllers are supported by MMBasic, and neither is that  display controller chip. You can use 800x480 on the Armmite F4 (and there is a cheaper IPS display that will do it - I did a PCB for it) but not the PicoMite as you can't have a frame buffer that big.
