The VXT430HWE-03-W is a 4.3-inch TFT module with 800 x 480 resolution — nearly three times the pixel count of the 480 x 272 panels that dominate this size — and an operating range of -30 to +85°C, the widest of any 4.3-inch module we offer. Storage goes to -40°C, the only module in the range rated that low. It is transmissive with an anti-glare polarizer and no touch panel. What stands out is how much is published: brightness of 640 minimum and 800 typical, contrast of 640 minimum and 800 typical, and logic current given for three screen contents — 73 mA on black, 102 mA on a single colour, 105 mA on white — rather than one vague number, which lets you size for the worst case and shows a dark interface genuinely saves power. The backlight is 16 LEDs at 1.024 W, and reliability covers ten tests including vibration at 10-55 Hz and mechanical shock at 60 G, with MTBF of 50,000 hours.
The useful part is not the numbers themselves but the hardware they let you remove.
