Here is some info on the framebuffer.
https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/ ... mebuf.html
It was mentioned that a 320 x 240 display would require a considerable amount of memory but if your display contains textual information or small animations, I mean like a number that's changing or something that represents level or temperature, you can divide the display into smaller windows and use one framebuffer for three or four windows. One nice thing about using dedicated windows is that once it is defined you can sequentially write a bytearray of the same number of bytes over SPI at a pretty good speed.
These are nice boards with the extra memory
