Description
I got my ESP32-S2 boards, one is ESP32-S2-Saola-1M, the other one is a LILYGO ESP32-S2 V1.1
I still do not plan to use idf and esp32-arduino has specific branch under devt - so I will check when I have time
-
some advantages vs eps8266 :
- more memory/ram
- more pins
- can create tasks
- usb host support for storage
- better support for TFT
-
some disavantage vs actual esp32:
- 1 core
- less ram
- no Bluetooth
a good comparaison table can be found here : https://www.reddit.com/r/esp32/comments/cny0tb/esp32s2_vs_esp32_comparison_table/
I think in mid term esp32-S2 will replace esp8266 but not in short term so there is no hurry IMHO
Also several nice features are not yet ported to esp32 core like esp8266/Arduino#7459
and some others.
