Waveshare ESP32-C6 1.47inch Display Development Board, 172×320, 262K Color, 160MHz Running Frequency Single-Core Processor, Supports Wi-Fi 6 & BLE, with Colorful RGB LED, ESP32 with Display

I’ve bought three of these now because they’ve basically become my daily driver for quick builds. I 3D-printed cases for each one so I can grab whichever is closest and flash whatever wild idea I’m chasing that day. They’re super easy to work with, the display looks great, and for the price you honestly can’t beat them. This is one of those modules you end up keeping on the desk because it’s too handy to put away. Great for experimenting, perfect for showing friends how fast you can spin up a project, and reliable every time I’ve used it. If you like tinkering, this is a no-brainer.

It is truly a great product, but it is very fragile. I havr broken 2 screens just carrying them around. Maybe make a case for them or something because the edge of the screen will get destroyed super easy. Other than that it is a greatnvalue with lots of connection options, a nice small size with an excellent display quality, and is very versatile. I made a mini weather display thay connects to the wifi using credentials on an SD card.

Couldn't get the demos working or even basic arduino/esp-idf stuff. BUT... I was able to get it working nicely with homeassistant esphome!

Extremely cool and functional piece of tech! Took a few hours to get running. All the info you need is on wave shares website. Turned it into a web server that could change the color of the display by interacting with the webpage.

Very capable board. With the addition of a microSD card, this is capable of playing full length movies. It takes some work and researched to it, but it can be done.

Esp32 is fine and works great. LCD was easy to program but gets too hot and causes black spots or washes the screen to black. Probably fine for testing but not recommended for production applications

This board is a nightmare to get the display to work which apparently has to do with coupling the ST7789 with the ESP32-C6 rather than an older ESP32 Dev board. Google this board asking about display configuration. The lamentation are colossal! For TFT_eSPI Library - massive number of library source code tweaks to get barely marginal operation that will squirrel out on you at the worst time. The Arduino_GFX library was tried and would display "something" sometimes but never the right color and rainbow pixel soup randomly appears.... that is if you can get it to compile in the first place. Tried to replace ArduinoESP32SPI with Arduino_HWSPI and manually initialize SPI to bypass the errors. Still no worky. The tutorials on the Waveshare Wiki for this board DO NOT WORK. In summary, until you confirm online that the various display libraries have been updated to accommodate this board or you are Steve Ciarcia or Dennis Ritchie, leave this board sitting in the Waveshare warehouse along with the demons that reside within it.

This little thing is awesome! It does work with micropython (I guess technically unofficially) I highly recommend going to the wave share site and downloading the schematic. It’s laid out very clearly and the documentation is superb. While I get the point of examples, I would recommend starting with the schematic and going from scratch to understand the board. I wouldn’t immediately start with libraries etc.. It’s a joy to work on once you have an understanding of the board. The price is also very good. This board can essentially be the entire project.

Zwar paar Problem den in Arduino auszuwählen aber sobald der drinne ist läuft der super.

Incredibly powerful little dev boards, and the screen is quite clear and bright. Highly recommend these.

Placa desarrollo la cual todo gira alrededor del mítico ESP32, que podríamos decir que es un standard para este tipo de placas. Buena construcción, con buenas añadidos (se habría agradecido una pantalla táctil, pero también entiendo que encarecería y podría dar otros problemas. Además, en la página de la marca facilitan proyectos de entrada para explorar todas sus funcionalidades.

Was even prutsen maar met hulp van de officiële website het goed werkend gekregen. Nu een super leuk kleine display die gekoppeld is aan mijn Domoticz systeem om status van zonnepanelen, zonnecollectoren en katten weer te geven :)

La qualité est très bonne. Je peux le programmer avec l'IDE d'Arduino. La livraison était rapide. Pas de problèmes à signaler.
