Solid performance out of the box
Flashed MicroPython immediately and had the demo running in minutes. The Wi-Fi connectivity is stable, and the color reproduction on the screen is vibrant.

Best ESP32 display board I've used
The form factor is compact yet usable. The capacitive touch works flawlessly with gloves, which was a pleasant surprise for my workshop controller project.

Perfect for IoT Dashboard Projects
The screen quality is surprisingly sharp for the size, and the LVGL integration saved me weeks of coding. The touch response is accurate, making it ideal for custom control panels.

Excellent learning tool
As a student learning embedded systems, this board bridges the gap between code and visual output perfectly. The built-in IMU is a nice bonus for motion projects.

Good value for money
For the price, you get a lot of features. The only downside is that the backlight can be a bit bright at maximum setting with no software dimming in the default demo, but easily fixable.

Great hardware, documentation could be better
The board itself is fantastic with plenty of RAM for complex graphics. However, finding specific pinout details for the sensor required digging through GitHub issues. Still highly recommended.
Q: Are there example codes available for LVGL on this specific board?
A: Yes, Waveshare provides a wiki with demo codes for both ESP-IDF and Arduino environments. You can also find community examples on GitHub specifically for the Waveshare ESP32-S3-Touch-LCD-1.69.
Q: What is the exact model of the IMU sensor included?
A: The board includes the BMI270, which is a 6-axis IMU combining a triaxial accelerometer and a triaxial gyroscope, optimized for wearable applications.
Q: Does this board support Arduino IDE?
A: Yes, the ESP32-S3 is fully compatible with the Arduino IDE. You will need to install the ESP32 board package and the relevant LVGL libraries.
Q: Is the touchscreen resistive or capacitive?
A: This model features a capacitive touchscreen, which offers better clarity and multi-touch support compared to resistive screens.
Q: Can I power this board with a 3.7V LiPo battery directly?
A: While the board has a VIN pin, it is recommended to use a battery with a protection circuit or connect through the 5V USB input if your battery regulator outputs 5V. Direct 3.7V connection to VIN may not provide stable voltage for the screen.
