Great board, not for beginners.
I just got my printer up and running with this board, and I'm still working out the kinks. That being said, I'm impressed with this board so far! The TMC 2130 drivers are almost silent when printing at low speeds.Wiring this puppy up was intense, but not impossible. It has more than enough pins to do everything you might need, and most stuff is pretty plug and play as long as you configure the firmware correctly. If you have a BL touch probe, be careful to wire it up correctly. I'd recommend knowing your printer pretty well before upgrading to this board.It was a little challenging to get everything configured correctly in Marlin. I recommend the tutorials on YouTube made by Edward Braiman - he does a great job. I did everything with his help. Be sure to use Visual Studio to flash your board instead of Atom - they're phasing Atom out.The touch screen is a wee bit wonky, and it's not my favorite, but it has a fairly intuitive UI. I've heard you can upgrade the firmware, so I'll be looking into that next.All around, I'm pleased with the board and I'd buy it again for another printer... in fact, I'll likely get or build another printer in the future, so I'll upgrade that one with this board.

Did the trick
Needed to replace a RAMPS/Arduino based motherboard that blew up when I mistakenly fed 24V in (the RAMPS board was fine with it, but the Arduino was not happy). This handled 24V/9A like a champ. I can now heat the bed and hot end in under 2 minutes (used to be about 20 minutes with 12V). As an added bonus I absolutely love the TMC2130 drivers! So quiet compared to the old A4988s. Just be sure you're comfortable with modifying firmware before you purchase this board. You will need to tweak the Marlin firmware.

Good package - it would be even better if there were better instructions
One of the most important things to note is that the TFF35 V2.0 is NOT AN LCD DISPLAY as far as the SKR v1.3 control board is concerned; it's basically a raspberry pi with a touchscreen expansion board This display hooks directly into the SKR 1.3 board at the TFT pins. The various LCD options in Marlin, for example, are not able to be implemented with the TFT35 V2.0, but it does have an auto bed leveling feature that I have not yet implemented.
