Is this Best ESP32 board? New T-Display S3 ESP32S3

[@VolosProjects]

Important! My apologies, in the video I stated that esp32 is single core which is not correct. Both chips are dual core. Sorry for that confusion.

[@koz]

Yeah. The ESP32 S1 (SOLO-1) is the board with the single CPU.

[@Rick_Cavallaro]

We'll let it go - this time. :)

[@prov_s195]

In theory esp32 has 3 cores, but only two can be used.

[@Rick_Cavallaro]

@@prov_s195 4 if you include the double secret core!

[@7Trident3]

I used to believe in you man. 😟

[@abobija]

Your videos are getting better and better. I'm looking forward for the awesome projects you'll make with this new-good-looking board. Good luck.

[@VolosProjects]

Thank you, i am trying to improve them.

[@StJohnsChurchWoking]

Such a great little board although runs slightly hot. Always in awe of what you are able to make these devices do!

[@reilyo766]

I stumbled upon a few of your videos yesterday and it inspired me to get a few displays. one of them was delivered this morning so I'm excited to try it out.

[@IncaTrails]

And ordered! I am consistently awed by how good the screens of your projects look (and to be honest, I'm a little jealous) :-)

[@JeanPierreLavoie]

This is great to discover you and this little gem of a board!

[@michealmorrow1481]

I took your code and did a lot of spiffing upon it. Now, the time changes uniformly and the useless extra array of numbers is gone. Running at 22 fps when I started. Now 27. Interesting code in spots. The debounce is interesting. Not really a debounce but it does let the code keep running even with the button still pressed. Better than some demos I have seen.

[@brunosolothurnmann9205]

Thank You - I got this also up and running. In the mean time I implement MQTT to display values with subscription. With this I can use it as a display for many home automation data. It's hard to find information, so your videos are of much value.

[@Peter_S_]

Subscribed and liked! I just bought two of these thanks to seeing them on your video. I have been impressed by all the Lilygo products I've seen so far and this one also looks excellent.

[@KetansaCreatesArt]

Hey so happy to find your channel. Not a programmer, just an artist with time for creativity. But still I don't want to lose the opportunity to make cool things out of these modules. I want to make something cool as well as useful out of it. So subscribing.

Both ESP32's are dual core. It's a nice product, looking forward to more instructional videos. Thanks a bunch!!

Indeed, but S3 uses LX7 cores vs the older LX6.

[@АлексейГерасимов-я1з]

Good afternoon cool board quite powerful I'm really looking forward to the Internet radio with a weather station and a clock :) thank you for your work

[@ZED-PV]

Tbh.. the looks like more than 32fps.. what a beautiful screen!! Subbed to not miss the projects 😁

[@DerekWilsonProgrammer]

This would be a good project for a 'fridge thermometer' a little light detector for when you open the fridge, a little thermocouple to measure the temperature, screen turns on when you open the fridge due to the light coming on, and shows the current temperature with a graph over the last 12/24 hours. Shows little yellow lines each time the door was opened (light sensor activated). Logs the temp in say 15 minute intervals.

[@fltfathin]

not a good idea to put thingies on cold tho, better just put the tc inside rest outside

[@lpeter1172]

@@fltfathin how do you connect the two though?

[@lpeter1172]

Maybe put the display on the outside so you don't need to open the fridge to see the temp

Tnx, benny, welcome😀

[@oieieio741]

Cool, your projects are well explained and fun to learn. I've been following along with my T-Display (first version). Looking forward to getting a T-D-S3 and following along. Your work and videos are beautiful. Hello from Canada:) yay Volos yay TTGO

[@VolosProjects]

Thank you, i also cant wait new project and videos, if you have idea for video feell free to share it so i will see what i can do.

[@TanjoGalbi]

The older ESP32 chip is also dual core, though there are single core versions of it but your TTGO board there is the more common dual core! The main differences between the ESP32 and ESP32-S3 are the S3 has slightly less RAM (512Kb vs ESP32's 520Kb), more GPIO than the ESP32, BT5 (LE) implementation, better low power modes, plus an AI acceleration support from vector instructions whatever that does! lol

[@VolosProjects]

tnx, i admit i made whole mess with thease wrong information i will need to coreect in next video. tnx for help.

I subscribed to your channel and since I'm already a Banggood customer I'll make sure to use your link when I buy this board, I wanted one of these anyways and now with the help of your videos and the sketches it's way easier for me to get into this particular developer board, it's pretty hard to find good tutorial videos about these boards and in a language that I can understand so thanks a lot for doing this. I'm looking forward to the next video you come up with and since I'm new to your channel I'm going to watch some of your older videos to see if there's something that's useful to me for my projects.

[@zachreyhelmberger894]

What an awesome little display!!

[@PyroSAJ]

So many features on that board that looks impressive. I recently received the rp2040/C3 combo that I still need to b explore a little, but this is actually what I wanted when I bought that one. The C3 is decent, but lacks the dual cores. Rp2040 would give me more cores, and potentially other options but then I'm programming for two separate systems... not ideal.

[@neolexiousneolexian6079]

Some benchmarks I found say RP2040 is 5X slower than ESP32 at integers, and 60-70X slower with floats due to lack of FPU. Where it shines is built-in support for complicated IO.

If you use metal screws for mounting, the wifi signal will be weak, because the holes are located next to the antenna.

They skimped out on 2 additional mounting points to create a secure attachment for a few cents of saving money during the manufacturing. It's a nice display but I would want 4 screw holes.

[@I_love_our_planet]

I went for every projekt that needs a nice looking case to M5 Stacks. The annoying thing on ESP Boards is that you need to build your own cases - and this process can easily be more effort than the complete ESP32 Development. M5 Stack costs more, but you get a nice Case and Display when needed. And everything works with everything from M5 Stack :-)

[@bobstanton2627]

How do you develop these fantastic GUI'S in your examples ?

[@Brian_Of_Melbourne]

Which ACTUAL chip is on the board? The variants listed in Espressif's datasheet are: ESP32-S3, ESP32-S3FN8, ESP32-S3R2, ESP32-S3R8, ESP32-S3R8V, and ESP32-S3FH4R2.

☑ CORRECTION RE: DUAL CORE All of your "old" T-Display boards are also *dual* core my friend! ESP32 has been primarily dual core since launch. (Espressif later released cheaper single core platforms, distinguished by having a "2" in the name. Seriously. If the ESP32 has a "2" in the name, like "S2," then it has a *single* core. Because "TO HELL WITH COMMON SENSE!" said every marketing team, ever.)

[@alkhashtee]

My friend I am bit confused about how can you read an analog signal from pin 44, while it is not an ADC input (according to the pinout diagram in your video)?

[@dr_jaymz]

The question I always have is how low can you go with deep sleep current? Many boards mess this up with leds and usb serial chips that you can't turn off. The previous board was about 120uA which isn't too bad and just about acceptable if you want to make something you turn off and on again using the built in buttons. The battery voltage divider is half of that!

[@VolosProjects]

I havent tested that,bit you gave me some ideas.
