I mentioned upthread that I bought an ESP32-based DLC-32 3D printer/laser controller board. It uses a 2.4" TFT SPI display. Admittedly, I didn't use it for very long before reflashing it with my own test code, but the display seemed pretty responsive.

I've been doing a lot of work with TFT_eSPI recently, but only on the display side (not using touch input) using the LVGL framework and it is very nice and smooth.
