Which is the most advanced ESP32 board?

Post by roland_vs » Mon Dec 20, 2021 10:04 am

Dear all,

I'm searching for a module with an ESP32 that has:
- the most memory (16/32 MB)
- offers both Wi-Fi and BLE4.2 or BLE5
- holds the boot/dwnld button
- has an U.fl or ipex antenna connection

Or otherwise:

I'm searching for a ESP32 based module with the best BLE experience to be used with BLE MESH

Best regards,

Roland

You may want to wait because the ESP32S3 is sampling and supposed to go to mass production soon. It will support 8MB usable PSRAM and larger amounts of flash 16 MB or some will have 32MB.

I think you can have larger values for both psram and flash but those are just what is included on die.

Checkout the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1U it has an option with a ufl connector.

It looks like the first modules are showing up on Aliexpress, Adafruit, Mouser, etc. Although its not clear to me if these are engineering samples or the start of mass production.

Unexpected Maker is also going to boards as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcTrYBtaAMc
