ELEGOO 3PCS ESP-32 Development Board USB-C, 2.4GHz Dual Mode WiFi+Bluetooth 4.2 Dual Core Microcontroller Support AP/STA/AP+STA, CP2102 Chip

the reputation of the esp 32 is well known and these are an excellent example of the chip. I've made a number of successful projects with these boards and hope to make many more!

I've purchased two sets of these now, as well as other brands that quite frankly I found disappointing for various reasons. All of the boards have worked flawlessly, some despite literally dozens of code downloads while debugging and expanding designs. The biggest advantage of these boards over some of the other variants I've purchased is that I've never had to hold the boot button when downloading code from an Arduino IDE. This has not been the case for some other manufacturers' versions, and given that some of my larger programs can take several minutes to compile before downloading, it's quite inconvenient having to pay attention to be able to press and hold the boot button at the proper time. (That said, there is the trick where you can jumper data pin 0 to ground until after downloading is complete, but depending on whether you are prototyping or have it installed in a way that the pins are no longer easily accessible, this is not always a convenient solution.) So while these do cost a bit more than some alternatives, the fact that they reliably program without having to hold the boot button is, at least to me, worth the small increase in cost. And Elegoo has great documentation (which is more relevant to some of their other products, but I mention because it just goes to the time and quality they put into their products).

Just as described. They work great!

None of these ESP32s worked. They would connect and the IDE would say it uploaded, but they wouldn't reset and run the program. It wouldnt even run the blink example. Update: I eventually set the upload flash rate to 40mhz and they worked.

I'm quickly becoming an ELEGOO fan because of the quality of their product and the packaging and product support. After purchasing an Elegoo Arduino based robot we gain a keen interest in Arduino projects. This was purely influenced by our experience with Elegoo. When sourcing other parts from different vendors which in some cases were cheaper, none compared and often lead to returns for lack of functionality. Elegoo never disappoints and they are worth the price. Very responsive support, respond quickly, provide accurate information to ensure compatibility. I've also had issues with other vendors products the were smaller but usb ports failed and overall too much hassle to work with. Elegoo is different and though the size of these ESPs require 2 bread boards, that's a small price to pay for a quality product.

Great product

Great for home IOT projects. Code is available to work with Alexa.

No documentation comes with it such as a data sheet or positive ID of the board for which there are many variants. This makes it difficult to know how to setup an IDE or use the pinout.

Both boards work perfectly right out of the box. USB-C connection is convenient, programming with Arduino IDE was smooth, and WiFi/Bluetooth performance is solid. Excellent value for the price.

Great quality, worked straight out of the box, was flashing with platform io - glad they supported 8 RMT FastLed lines, was disappointed by the S2 Mini’s previously, these worked perfectly, first time (though i did kill one by accidentally tying IO lines together)

All of them work perfectly, very good price.

I’ve been using this ESP32 for some prototyping, and it’s been excellent so far. It works reliably, has all the features I need, and the performance is solid. For the price, it’s honestly a great deal. Perfect choice for hobby projects or quick experiments.

Arrived well secured and protected from damage. Items as advertised, 3 x ESP32 boards with header pins attached, all supporting USB-C. Initial testing shows they are operating as expected when loaded with firmware via Ardunio IDE. Good price, good quality, will buy again!
