Waveshare has recently launched the ESP32-S3-AMOLED-1.91-M dev board which is an ESP32-S3-based board with a 1.91″ AMOLED display, designed for rapid prototyping and IoT or portable projects Powered by the ESP32-S3R8 chip, it includes a 32-bit LX7 dual-core processor (up to 240MHz), 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth BLE 5, 16MB Flash, 8MB PSRAM, and additional SRAM/ROM memory. The display, with a 240 × 536 resolution, supports 16.7 million colors and is driven by the RM67162 controller, making it ideal for GUI applications. Available in touch and non-touch versions, it also features a 6-axis IMU for motion-sensitive applications, USB Type-C, MicroSD storage, and a LiPo battery header for portable use.

Previously we have written about various ESP32-S3-based development boards including the Lilygo T-Embed, Lilygo T-Embed CC1101 and many more feel free to check those out if you are interested in ESP32-S3-based development boards.
