- Thu Nov 26, 2015 4:55 pm #35104 Super cheap color TFT based on ILI9163C (128x128), as low as 3US with free expedition in china market, can be drived by ESP8266.
It works with SPI (it uses also SPI Transactions where available), tested and works with ESP8266-12E, many example included.

- Sun Nov 29, 2015 12:07 pm #35265 Thanks for feedback! I've just have an user that point me at a possible issue, the library broke when an AP it's connected. I'm actually don't have a free ESP8266 free to use laying around, someone confirm this?
I have a workaround ready but just want to be sure that this is an issue.
The next release has several yeld spreaded around code to leave processing to the background wifi stuff.

PS
I'm also try to port my library for RA8875 to ESP8266, would be nice see a monster of 800x480 with 5 capacitive touch drived by such a tiny thing but get stuck with some hardware issue on RA8875 SPI (that uses SPI Mode3 and internally it pull up MISO and SCLK, causing the entire SPI channel get stuck).
