Customer:
I’m building an e-reader and want to know if I can upgrade my Inkplate 5 v2 to have the capabilities of an Inkplate 6FLICK. Is this feasible?

Soldered Support:
You could potentially add a resistive touchscreen foil with an IC connected to the ESP32, but finding a touch surface as a separate complete product is difficult. Adding a frontlight would be even more challenging.
Getting a new Inkplate 6FLICK is the most feasible option.
