Exceeded expectations
The build quality feels premium. The touch calibration was accurate out of the box. Highly recommend for anyone moving from Arduino to more complex ESP32 projects.

Perfect for IoT Dashboard Projects
The screen quality is surprisingly sharp for the price point. Setting up LVGL was straightforward with the provided examples. The ESP32-S3 handles the graphics smoothly without noticeable lag.

Good value for money
For the features you get, especially the PSRAM and large screen, the price is unbeatable. The only minor issue is that the backlight consumes a bit more power than expected on battery setups.

Excellent learning board
Bought this for my university embedded systems course. The integration of WiFi and Bluetooth makes it perfect for smart home prototypes. The USB-C programming is a nice modern touch.

Great hardware, documentation could be better
Hardware is solid and the capacitive touch is very responsive. I had to dig into the GitHub repo for some specific pinout details not fully covered in the wiki, but once configured, it works flawlessly.

Robust and reliable
I've been running a home automation control panel on this for two weeks straight. No crashes, stable WiFi connection, and the brightness is sufficient even in a lit room.
Q: Does this board support MicroPython?
A: Yes, the ESP32-S3 controller fully supports MicroPython. You can find firmware builds and example scripts for the LCD and touch interface on our official GitHub repository.
Q: Can I power this board directly with a 3.7V LiPo battery?
A: While the logic is 3.3V, we recommend powering the board via the 5V USB or VIN pin to ensure the display backlight and regulator function correctly. A standard LiPo battery connected through a boost converter to 5V works perfectly.
Q: Is the source code for the demo UI available?
A: Absolutely. All demo code, including the LVGL examples and touch calibration tools, is open-source and hosted on our Waveshare Wiki and GitHub page under the ESP32-S3-Touch-LCD-5 section.
Q: Does it come with a protective case?
A: No, this package includes only the development board. However, the board has standard mounting holes, and 3D print files for a case are available in our community forum.
Q: What is the maximum external storage capacity supported?
A: The MicroSD card slot supports cards up to 32GB officially, though many users have reported success with 64GB cards formatted in FAT32.
