- Welcome to the Arduino LilyGo T5 4.7" E-Ink Review.
In this video, we'll have a look at the Lilygo ESP32 board, which has a 4.7" E-Paper display. I created two small applications with it, a RUclips subscriber counter and a simple Quotes slideshow app, and in this video, I will give my thoughts on this board. This video is not sponsored, and I paid for all of the boards I'm showing you with my own money. Let's get started.

This board is an ESP32 board with a big 4.7” E-Paper display attached to it. So, we have a very powerful processor to work with and a very big E-Paper display at the same board. Also, this board offers a battery charging circuit and an 18650-battery holder! There is also another version of the board which does not offer a battery holder but a LiPo battery connector instead. Guess what. I bought both of them.
Let’s now take a look at the heart of the board the ESP32 chip. I created a simple table in order to be easier to see the most important features of this chip. It offers two 32Bit Processing Units operating at 240MHz. The chip also offers Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, 8MBs of PSRAM memory, and 16MBs of flash memory.
The display this board uses is a 4.7” e-ink display with a resolution of 960x540 pixels, it supports 16 grey levels and partial refresh. The display also supports an add on touch screen module which I don’t have to test so far.
The board also offers 5 buttons, 4 of them are programmable and one is the reset button. Additionally, we have a few GPIO pins left at these 3 4 pin connectors.
Lastly the board offers a USB type-c connector to program the board, charge the battery, and power the board when no battery is inserted. Cool!

I have one, but the battery is not working for me. It works when I connect to usb ... I have give it up.
Thanks for posting! So, the board has also quality control issues. It is good for the viewers of the channel to know. I was lucky with mine!
The legend returned.
When the world needed him the most.
hahaha thanks for the really warm welcome!
Nice to see you back !!!
Hello! I have missed your videos. Great to see you back.
Thanks!
Ωπ νέο βίντεο μετά από πολύ καιρό. Ευχαριστούμε. Θα τσεκαρω και το άλλο κανάλι
Again a very good idea. Waiting for all the good applications.
Hey, those are kool!!! Oh and welcome back man!! :)
Welcome back!
Thanks for the advice on this.
Lilygo has produced some really nice boards.
I think the ghosting artefacts are a known issue with partial refresh and a compromise for speed. I get the same thing on smaller e-paper displays. An occasional full refresh cycle clears remnants of previous screen data.
I was thinking about you the other day!
I wonder what happened to him? I thought.
Has he experience burned out and quit YT?
Glad to see you are Ok and still uploading.
Thank you my friend!
Used one of these in my first Arduino project, a weather and temperature display. Started from an example and modified it, wasn't too bad for learning. All the complicated logic I put on a server which served the image in this device's native format, so it just downloads using HTTP and displays whatever it is told. Easier doing this way than coding up complex logic on the device, at least for a beginner like me.
I purchased a couple of these a few months ago and have the OWM weather sketch running on them. I really like them, but would like to modify the weather sketch more, but haven't been able to figure out how to change it from horizontal to vertical display. Definitely lacking documentation for us newbies .
When I compiled the weather demo, it required specific version of ArduinoJson "v6.17.2", not the latest version.
Hello, thanks for stopping by. How it works after time? Is it still working?
I have aproblem with Arduino, everytime I click on sketch and then add zip library it becomes unresponsive, what should I do ?
very nice video! Do you know if the version with 18650 battery holder and the one with the li po connector uses the same battery charging module? The 18650 is unfortunately not available in my region...
can this type of board with 2.9 inch display be made with less than $5
Hello, i need some help with a project, for school, i need to send specific variables from visual studio to arduino
I received this product today, but the port doesn't work
The board's link doesn't work anymore. It was sold out.
The flashing between display changes is very irritating. Otherwise, good.
Μα πουυυυ είσαι ρε φίλε τόσο καιρό;; Είσαι καλά;; Ελπίζω ναι...
Καλή επιστροφή.. περιμένουμε τα καλύτερα.
Να είσαι καλά να μας εκπαιδεύεις
Γεια σου φίλε, όλα καλά! Όταν έχεις δουλειά, μωρό, και μια πανδημία να βγάλεις πέρα πού να βρεθεί χρόνος για βίντεο! Ευχαριστώ για την θερμή υποδοχή!
Eeew 🤮 Advertising a thief, someone who just repeats what Jacques Fresco told? Advertising a narcissist that got rich through child slaves? I like this channel and learned from you, you, someone who really can and is really doing and not just exploit people and makes scarce resources to space garbage for marketing, but I don't want to see Shmuck on my page. Will never understand how people that really know about technology can like this liar. You just lost a subscriber.
Sorry to see you go!
Putting quotes of someone is totally advertising. Kindly go out of here, the comment section will be better without whiney people like you.
@@davidpodeszwa7010 But child slaves are fine and using earth's resources as he wants instead of using them to providing all human needs and stop suffering and eradication of all knowing life is fine too, right? After decades of overproduction of hundreds millions cars that rot in nature producing even more cars to save the environment is absolutely legit, right?
He doesn't quote, he even said that he is against Jacques Frescos ideas and the Venus Project because he is afraid of AI, while repeats all Fresco said even with the same time spans, selling it as his own ideas, and how someone who is pretending to be a technician can tell such bullshit about algorithms like a child that just watched Terminator for the first time? Now people post quotes of Jacques Fresco but put the name of this psychologically 15 years old narcissist under it.
Your jealousy about his wealth makes you to a fanatic, that's all, but even this is a lie, it is not real but speculative value of the companies that run under his name, in fact he own around 206 million dollars. And "btw." he is supporting fascists in Ukraine in killing the own population. Shmuck is the next Gates, a technocrat eugenicists, a liar and a thief, logically, there is no other way to become rich than being the definition of anti-social, anti-human.
Agree on every mentioned point, Elon Musk is a damned sociopath laughing while talking about suffering people, speaks like he cared about the future or anything at all while always sneaks around the elephant in the lunchbox: Technological unemployment, which shows that he didn't spend a second thinking about what he is repeating and the stammering and stuttering shows clearly that he is repeating and that not a single word is his own, he is just filtering for things he can tell stupid people, but he is the big hero of every loser that thinks he can buy human value and self-esteem.
@@Scientific_Approach Exactly, happy that more sane people are aware of the sickness, just look how they ignore everything that doesn't fit into their fanatism and only answer to the least important things. Thank you!
