Hi,

I would like buy LCD Display Module for experiments. I plan use the display with RPi4, Pico and Arduino.
I haven't any specific project with this display in my mind yet, so there isn't any specific requirements.

I consider these two:
https://www.waveshare.com/product/displays/lcd-oled/lcd-oled-3/2inch-lcd-module.htm
https://www.waveshare.com/2.4inch-lcd-module.htm

Both are similar size and price. The most significant difference is display panel type. One is TFT and another is IPS.

I have read about differences between IPS and TFT but I still don't know which one should I choose🤔
It will be nice to have wide view angle and wide colour depth but as I said I haven't any specific requirements.

Please advise me which one will be better?

You will be happy with either one, but if I had to choose, I would go for the IPS.
