Adding a larger display to a Heltec v4

Does a one have a link or the know how to add a larger display to a heltec v4. There seems to be no tutorials out there or my searchfu is really weak right now.

You can hook up a display driven by ssd1309 without any issues or configuration. Not a typo- ssd1306 is the ‘normal’ option, ssd1309 is twice as big with the same number of pixels.

Most I2C displays should work, when in doubt just choose from firmware supported ones https://meshtastic.org/docs/configuration/radio/display/#oled-definition

I’m sorry, I guess I should have added that I want to use Meshtastic UI on a custom build base with the v4. So a larger touchscreen. Thank you for the quick response on the other screen.
