I jumped to ESP8266 this year when bugs and libraries were mostly solved.
Now Im in the edge people are developing ESP32.
I cant imagine how ESP32 will stand out other MCU in term of price, functionalities and a big big community!

Thank you Andreas!

This is gonna be a classic youtube video of this generation change! I recommend it to all my students. Thanks Andreas, and please keep us regularly updated on the development of this bright daughter indeed!
( E.g. Bugs you found, BLE code, analogWrite. )

It is wonderful to find an source to lead us to explore the extension of esp8266, thanks Andreas.

You are a Genius Andreas !! I have seen all your videos and I have learned a lot.
Best of all, I understand your English perfectly. My greetings and hugs for these holidays, from Argentina

Excellent video. Thank you for the comparison between two. This year, I started fiddling around ESP8266 and I find your videos are great helpful. Now, I am thinking to get my hands on ESP32 development board. What a great year 2017 will be, so many new things to learn and new opportunities.

just ordered a ton of micros to play with from ali express, and i'm already informing myself about how to work with them in the meanwhile

thanks for your channel :P

I have a Lolin 32 with wroom32. I did the steps and now it is working.
Andreas simply the best.
Please more video !
:D

Dear Andreas, today I managed to program my first esp8266, I am looking forward to see the capabilities of the esp32. Keep going, I can't wait to see your next video

[jims]

Very informative comparison and tips on getting these new devices going in the Arduino IDE. Thanks much!

[dougmanatt]

I am happy to watch your efforts on the bleeding edge. I aspire to be part of the "early majority"!

[philbx]

Thanks much again Andreas. You are really in touch with innovations of these WiFi modules.
I'm still amazed by your research and ability to suss out what is required to get things working!

[AhCup]

Thank you for the explanation. Can't wait to see more mature software support and easier to use ESP32 board available.

Hello Mr.Spiess,
an awesome video as always! I have become a big fan of your channel! The ESP32 looks very promising, especially for implementing it in IoT products! Looking forward for more interesting tutorial videos from your side!
P.S. your channel is quite popular here in India too! :-)
Cheers!

Thank you Andreas for this video. The way you make your tutorials is wonderful.

[dionisnavarro]

Thank you for your time, nice tutorial. I like your fun way to explain things, you remind me back in the 90s when I had to study a book about network admin and programming of over 2000 pages, it was really fun because the author wrote like if he was speaking to you and explaining things with jokes...

[MaxintRD]

Ah, a new video! That's a nice breakfast surprise! And it's an ESP32 review... Great! Can't wait to view it, but want to thank you first! THANK YOU and wish you a nice day!
Edit: Viewed, liked and already subscribed... Another great informative video! Lots of information presented in a very clear way. Thank you for your efforts and for suffering the bleeding edge, so we don't have to ;-)
Seeing the specs nicely spaced out by you, I see there is a bright future ahead. Thanks to Espressif for their work and for recognizing heroes such as Ivan, but also thanks to people like yourself for making new technology accessible!

[scotte]

Thank you Andreas, I have been having issues with the ESP8266 and now I have potential solutions! I also have two SparkFun ESP32 boards that I haven't started working with yet, Christmas break is a good opportunity to get started!

[tanux]

Thanks Andreas, I was waiting for these news on esp32: your video is a Chirstmas gift! I think that it's too early to develop on this device... Probably we must wait about one year and... There are too much stuff in esp32 that need more time for the learning curve. Anyway your valuable video show us the really potential of the device AS-IS today. I wish you Merry Christmas!

[Dronebotworkshop]

Excellent and informative video as always, thank you for posting it. Looking forward to more ESP32 videos.

[CathaLS]

Thank you for your work Andreas. I am a new follower and enjoying my experiments with the ESP8266 with Arduino and Micropython. Will follow your channel to see when upgrading to the ESP32 is recommended.

Keep up the great work :-)
