Round TFT, Arduino or ESP-32?

Hardware
1

Hi,
I want to read the stream of data coming from a Speeduino EFI ECU and display certain values on a round TFT screen. The Speeduino runs on an Arduino Mega, so the data stream is not too fast. But I want nice grafics on the gauges (and a button to scroll through various gauges). I was recommended this display with ESP32 board on the back:

I think I can program that as if it is an Arduino, right? Seems like a simple solution.
The other solution would be a Nano or similar with a separate round screen. What would be the simpelest option?
Cheers,
Hugo

The device you linked is probably the better choice. A Nano doesn't have the horsepower to take advantage of a TFT graphic display except for pretty basic stuff. By upgrading to an ESP32 you can get fast, high resolution graphics easily. Most of these displays come with LVGL graphic library examples.
