OK but has limitations and constraints on usage.

Great unit but software is a bit awkward and not everything (especially the camera) work from micropython and due to old libraries can be hard to configure. Arduino users should be OK for almost everything.

Needs more development for VSsudio code to get the most from it.

The board was able to run the face recognition code. But would crash sometimes. This board is not listed in the VS studio Arduino plug in. So had a problem to program it. Had to do it from the Arduino IDE. Which i had trouble getting PSram functioning.

In Kombination mit dem Freenove Breakout Board ist dieses ESP32-S3 CAM Board einfach super. Das beiliegende Tutorial ist erstklassig, ich habe viel gelernt und es hat unwahrscheinlich viel Spaß gemacht. Definitiv eine klare Empfehlung für jeden, der in die Welt des ESP32 einsteigen will.

Snabb leverans och bra förpackat med alla tillbehör för att lätt komma igång med ESP32 kortet. Tutorialen är välskriven och lätt att följa enligt mig. Integrerade denna ESP32 Cam kortet till Home Assistant genom ESPHome integrationen.
