The media could not be loaded. I'm sorry other reviewers aren't happy with the documentation but for an ESP32 board, they provided about 10 times more than you usually get, right on this page. The pinouts, three different methods to program it...Well packaged in a box and static-resistant bags; included a USB-C cable, header pins, and even some Dupont wires; usually you just get a chip and nothing else. All three work perfectly out of the box and appear to come programmed with the built-in RGB LED blink sketch. I tested simple webservers on two of them to control the LED color and timing and it worked perfectly on both. The ESP32-S3 series is relatively new as of the time of this review and is priced fairly here: it's essentially the same price as those places where it takes two weeks. It has a ton of GPIO pins, too.Highly recommended!

I kind of just jumped into developing on the ESP32 and this was the first product that came up. Arrived when stated, got exactly what it said was included and I like the quality, price and usb-c for connecting and uploading.The downside.This is not a beginner friendly development board. So if you're new, try another board. I've had a lot of trouble going through the documentation and setting up the development environment. The manufacturer and support are all definitely for an east asian company which is probably fine if you're very familiar with the esp32 or are fluent in the language. But due to this being a relatively obscure development board in the west there isn't any real documentation, support or community. I've also had to use other random obscure chipsets just to get some basic code compiled and running other than what it suggested. I'm not even entirely sure what the chip I'm developing for is exactly? I think it's the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1 but there aren't that many commonly supported default chipsets for that from what I seen and some of the development boards have default supported through the arduino IDE and setting up the current ESP-IDF has been even more difficult to me.I know this is due to my limited knowledge and information and and expert would find these issues trivial, which is why I still gave it a 4 start -1 for lack of support.

They work great but I've only used 1 so I will update later.

Not a lot of information, but playing around I got it running in the Arduino IDE using the ‘COM’ port. Look on the bottom side for the correct port.
