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.

As I don't currently work with screens, I get confused with what the options are.

I need the largest possible screen with touch.

Maybe this works.
Very likely these  work

Take care that you choose one with a supported touch controller. The XT2046 should do I think, maybe someone knows better.

But I myself have no experience with them.

Thanks guys. Something wrong with my search ability because I looked at both of those sites, prior to asking.

Personally I'd pick the largest *supported* version from the manual. I like to play safe though. :)

These Waveshare 10" DVI screens offer a very affordable HDMI display at £26.35 currently (plus shipping) PR but unfortunately they have no 'touch' ability if that requirment is really essential to you.

https://www.waveshare.com/pico-dvi.htm?sku=25510

They work very well with Mick's Pico2 adaptor PCBs (giving a nice crisp display) and I'd be happy to gift you a PCB should you decide this 10" display could meet your needs.

Regards,

IanT

Don't buy from AliExpress. Look at buy display.com. they have a 9" ssd1963 with xpt2046 touch which will definitely work.

Yeah buydisplay is what I'm looking at because they are likely to be a reliable source. The 3d capabilities of PicoMite giving me all kinds of ideas. Kinda mind blowing 👍
