Review on πŸ“Ά Hiletgo ESP32 LCD WiFi Kit: Develop with Ease using the 1.14 Inch LCD Display, WiFi, Bluetooth & USB Type-C for Arduino ESP8266 NodeMCU by Micheal Chaplain

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Welcome upgrade to ESP8266!

I bought this board as an alternative to the ESP8266. It offers a dual-core processor, which means faster and smoother encoding (like an HTTP server on one core and a background refresh process on the other to read sensors, update values, etc.). I was impressed with the LED screen! I found the connectors easier to solder than some of the other boards I've looked at; As always, be careful when soldering near the LED screen! I used this board via Arduino IDE and VSCode; Make sure the Espressif ESP32 Dev driver is selected and that you have a spare USB-C cable (it's not micro-USB like most other boards)! Highly recommended!

Pros
  • Not cheap but neat
Cons
  • Crumpled
