Liked - Arrived quickly as promised. Bought as gift for kid. Very nicely packed in good sorted platic box, all components well arranged. Esp32 board and breakout board looks good quality PCB with clear markings etc. Documentation should be downloaded from webiste and it comes with all code etc. Documentation is shining star here, it not only gives how to make projects but also teaches basics of every component and proj idea. Youtube channel with playlist of projects is excellent. Tested few projects and they work good, except one with camera and face recognition- it gives error of some missing file that i could not find in provided documentation and also google search dosent help. Disliked/suggestions: Although printed manual of 300pages might not be sustainable, some cheat sheets with brief important info and list of projects etc would be great for kids to get started. Projects are fine to get started with sensors etc provided in kit; but having some projects that could be fun for children should be included with kit. E.g. the boy whom i gifted this was asking , what fun thing or game we can do? May be this kit is not for school kids, but more for teenagers who already have interest in electronics or adults who want to get started with microcontrollers. In box it says not suitable for children under 14yrs. This should be clearly mentioned in info of Amazon listing. The tilt sensor provided was defective- one lead of it is extremely thin wire, seems wrong assembly or broken. The camera projects mostly do not work when battery is connected to power board, it works only with usb connected to PC. Everything freezes when usb power is removed. I hope the breakout board has not hardware fault dropping current and voltage to esp32. In nutshell- for price it is good kit to get started in hobby electronics. Some improvements are needed, that we hope to be resolved in future. Thanks for nice product. *may be after testing all projs there might be more surprises or shocks... let us see ;).

I really wanted to explore the possibilities of the ESP32 and this kit seemed like the perfect way to do so. I wanted to work in micropython and it's worth noting that sdcard and the camera are only covered when coding in C, that's all the incentive I need to look programming the ESP32 in C in fthe future. I found the manual to be clear and informative for all the projects that I have attempted so far and I feel confident in connecting servos and in using a motor driver chip to control a motor with the ESP32. These are 2 things I was particuarly interested in. The sample code gives enough grounding to get started with any component and then it's up to your imagination to take it further. I have also explored bluetooth communication, controlled the onboard neopixel and set up a simple webserver using the wifi. Therre's loads more to explore and I look forward to doing so. This kit is a great introduction to the ESP32-WROVER with a shed-load of components to investigate.

Quite a few errors in the example code in the C tutorial PDF file. The included code files are correct not how you actually learn though. The included accessories worked apart from the audio amplifier board.

Great kit, lots of different projects to build. The reason I have only given 1 stars is the instructions are wrong. I’ve only got to project 2, I followed the image of the circuit perfectly but it wouldn’t work, I then spent some time checking the image against the schematic and it is literally wrong. I have managed to get it working. I don’t know what I am doing, I am trying to learn, having this sort of discrepancy on the second project is pretty poor in my opinion. Also worth mentioning there are 35 projects, not the 120 claimed on this page

A disappointing purchase, once the board is plugged in the blue led in IO2 just flashes. I'm unable to upload anything. Waiting for support to get back to me just a really disappointing first experience with ESP32

This kit has great quality, all the parts came packaged exceptionally and the chips came to me in pristine condition, the board is very powerful, customer service was sensational! Some cons are that the programming language differs from Arduino which some people may struggle to pick up, and there can be some issues with connecting, but customer support are on hand! They provided me a small sheet of card with a guide to resistors, parts came in exceptionally tidy packaging that made it feel pristine, the tutorials are comprehensive and answer every question! One con is that the RGB LED I got did not work despite being wired properly, overall its a great product and sensational service, could not recommend this afforable and powerful board enough!

È un kit per chi ama giocare con l'elettronica . Molto ben consegnato, si possono fare diversi circuiti molto utili . Mio figlio continua a progettare , a costruire nuovi circuiti strabilianti e mi dice che si diverte tanto . È arrivato nei tempi previsti non manca niente e funziona tutto . lo consiglio

A kit and free schooling, can't go wrong. Excellent kit.

Buena calidad de componentes

The person who put this package together did an excellent job. Make sure you search for the correct downloads for the ESP32 microcontroller. The instructions are well detailed. There was a lot of care in putting this together. This is a great educational kit for anyone looking to learn Arduino programming with the ESP32.
