This needs Meshtastic ASAP. NICE!
I agree! This is rad!
This
Agreed!
I would buy it for meshtastic
For everybody asking what it is or what it does, it is an ESP 32 device and it does what those do, which is actually very flexible depending on what the firmware allows and what application is programmed for it. They are very limited on resources such as actual horsepower and give it as a and you could do with that what you need as far as an interface to control other more powerful objects or to link it to home, smart devices, mesh devices, etc. It's not something that is meant. Dw replace your Android or iPhone or anything like that. It is more like a pocketable e-paper touch display for your home. Automations temperatures, lighting and anything else. You can link the MS task deck or linking that to iftt
That's cool thanks Andy I just purchased a Lily Go t-deck plus just waiting for it to be shipped 😎👍👍🇨🇦
Very cool Andy, good to see it when it’s running Ripple and/or Meshtastic code.
I’ve got a coworker with an e-paper watch that is just so cool looking
Very cool, has quite enough screen space to be useful.
OMG another lilly go going in to my collection lol great video
2:32 can't wait for a 50 gray scales one
I love e-papers, but imagine having a really private conversation over it, you turn it off and leave it on your desk... and whole conversation remains on the screen for everyone to read 😂
I suppose the answer would be to blank the screen before powering down, but if you don't refresh the screen enough you still run the risk of it being readable with screen ghosting.
e-Paper is great stuff, but you gotta think if it's the best for your needs. Here I think it's good because it's so low power, but you aren't going to be watching films on it any time soon.
LilyGo are TOTALLY kicking a$$ with their prototype gear 😮
It's like an ESP32 ePaper, Wifi, LoRa iPhone 👍 lol
This video seems to have been exclusively promoted to the totally wrong crowd, there's a dozen mouth breathers on here all expecting you to explain it in Play School language 🙄
Seeing some of the questions, it was obvious it got suggested to a casual tech review group. 😑 which is fine if they are new but they need to do a little research themselves before they start Commenting.
Where can a noon go to understand this type of tech?
@@dukewaller7392 I'd probably recommend a 48 min video by Dronebot Workshop called "Introduction to ESP32 - Getting Started"
G00GLE ESP32 for beginners for more options...
If you're not already familiar with microcontroller programming though it is a bit intense.
@@troymd2009 Yup, they just want new stuff to be sold to them so the algorithm throws them anything "tech". They don't know nothin' bout nothin'.
Wow this thing looks incredible!
As sooon as this gets Meshtastic I'm buying 4
love this device, it will be great for meshtastic, maybe a hardmounted solution
Love to see what it looks like inside if that a possibility. I'd also like to know what gpio is left for add ons.
It allows text messaging and location sharing without cellular or wifi connection. For use in emergency situations or remote locations.
Looks like as Emhance gonna do some testing as soon as this has meshtastic!
I think they might be waiting for the Meshtastic UI to do firmware for this, I've used it a little and it has a pretty nice software keyboard, and a lot of the interface, while usable with arrow key/trackball, is much more touch or at least mouse friendly.
Looks awesome! Just one really tiny little, minor thing: wtf is it supposed to be??! A smartphone replacement? A wireless hub? A rescue device? Am I a moron? Probably.
It's a developer platform? You write your own programs and test them out on it to see what your ideas would feel like as a prototype. It's like a toy for developers, like the old Cybikos and the barbie PDA from 20 years ago.
It’s a prototyping device. They give you hardware and bare-bones software mostly as examples to follow when developing your own then we have to do the rest
With its help you can demonstrate to others that they are morons who cannot understand what it is)))
Nice overview video, God bless.
Ohh Cool device thanks
no offense but are you going to tell us wtf it does
It's a portable black & white TV.
It’s a Meshtastic node
It's an Eye phone 17....
Lmfao!!! Exactly what I was thinking!!
it's a tool for people to test prototypes of their programs. For programmers, "ESP32" is all he needed to say for us to know what it does.
It's a box...with wifi and ram and stuff!
Yeah Baby!! Need moar boxes. And stuffs.
I admit I've got a bias
To any batch of silicon that be rocking a BIOS
It's a boring old esp32 worth 10p that's wrapped in stuff.
Why does it need a separate battery management chip? I am doing a project right now that does battery management with the base ESP32. Is that not recommended?
really curious to see how well typing works on e-paper.....
What can you do with it
when i see Lora, i dig it
That's crazy that it's sold out and it doesn't have meshtastic support yet.
Uh, what is it for?
It would be cool if you could review the raspberry pi geobox
But why isn't the circle button not symmetrical???
I have a Boox Palma 2 -- also an e-paper (e-ink specifically) device that I got specifically for working with Meshtastic outdoors. Android 13, great display with fantastic visibility in the sunshine and a good frontlight for use at night, good performance, BT 5.0, WiFi, etc. -- it's basically an e-ink phone without a cellular radio. Also turned out to be super easy to root it for superuser access so you can do things like back up entire apps and their data in a specific state. Let me know if you want me to test it with anything specific.
Cool! Are you in my discord? Would you mind sending me a video of the meshtastic app running on the boox and entering texts on the on screen keyboard?😁
Here's a Discord invite!
discord.gg/p7HKCES8
I second Andy's proposal.
nice
0 with a dot means zero, to differenciate with the letter O.
What is it?
off-grid communication device maybe
More imortant is what isn't it.
Developer tool. Like a toy for programmers.
@PixlRaibow
I'd argue it's more than a toy since you can use them for serious prototyping work, but yes, that's an accurate description
Whatever you want it to be
E book reader?
Cool. What does it do?
Whatever you program it for. This is not a product for end consumers but for DIYers looking for a finished hardware product. Many people might use it for meshtastic or for homeassistent
Wonder if a touch keyboard is possible for messages?
I think you can do partial refresh of the screen so it should be possible
@@andykirby
A screen refresh after each letter, will cause brain hemorrhage🤣 But i be glad that the T5 is an open device. I can put on any display i like😎
very cool
Is there highier quality screen that doesnt flicker at every refresh. I’ve seen eink devices for note taking and they dont flicker..
The M5paper seems to be better
flash is there to clear out the ghosting with this type of display that occurs after displaying an image. on an i reader i could set it to full refresh every few page turns i stead of every.
Almost disappointed there's no SIM slot, haha
What will it do?
Whatever you programme it to do
Does this have GPS module?
No
@@andykirby Did @randylayman965 watch the video?
We want also: solar panel to be rechargeable, improved meshtastic for blockchain to be paid for being online and send/receive money.
like the arctic... or the UK... lol
is it just an onyxboox phone? with less "PHONE" in it and more "TABLET"
nope, it's not a smart device at all. It's a mesh radio devkit. It's for developers who want to test how their own programs would work on the platform.
@@PixlRainbow I have a T Deck Plus, I'm familiar with this line of products.
@@tdata545 ah okay sorry, just watching out since there are a lot of people in these comments who are unfamiliar with the entire category of DIY-ish hardware.
@@PixlRainbow No probs.
3:20 is that flickering really that bad or is that an artifact of the video?
Its the led lights I use in the studio. It doesn't flicker to the naked eye.
@@andykirby Hello, great video! Can you do later a comparison between it and the m5paper, please?
@@andykirbyit can flicker to the naked eye if you code it to..
A screen should be a combination of color epaper, a translucent color LED display above that, and an MIP LCD screen above that (no panel)
It should also have a refreshable tactile display (even if it's only one 6-bit character output for reading)
2 touches at once isn't enough, the maximum should be at least 10
16 shades of gray is pretty embarassing, my Hisense A5 Pro CCs had 4096 colors
👍🏼😮👍🏼
Its a cell phone back in the day...😮
So.. im curious, what the draw back with e-paper with fast refresh like juste a blink...🤔
- Power consumption?
- CPU or hardware limitations?
- screen longevity...? (Back light or not ?)
😮😊😊😊
2-minute the screen isn't mat; I don't like how glossy and reflective it is.
very thin bezels for an e-ink device
Does it put out a full 1Watt? I'm not buying another device unless it does!
Am not sure exactly what am watching
This is really cool but the lack of GPS is a bummer. I guess this would probably be for linking with a phone so maybe it's not there because of that.
I love my gadgets, and this one looks nice. Hopefully they'll add a GPS.
Why would you need GPS in an ereader?
Why ESP32 🤷♂️
I watched the entire video and still have no idea what its used for. You show no real world example of how you would go about using this item.
It's a development device, like all the other ESP32 devices out there 😁
@ okay. What are you developing?
@ I guess is coding that i have no understanding of.
Mesh Radio software, like meshtastic and ripple and reticulum etc.
@@andykirby thank you 🙏🏼
They look cool, but we can NEVER program them, and their support is horrible!
! The support team has stepped up!😭
@@lilygoactivities2783 Does not matter if they cannot be programmed.
long story in short, i not see it working
annnnnd its gone.
I'ts quite incredble. that 1min in, there's absolutely no explanation to what the heck you are going to present. =P
Right at the beginning, I say it's an ESP32 device. It's basically a development platform.
Thanks for showing something you can’t get as you are reviewing 🤦🏻♂️
BLE and GPS missing 😢
It has BLE
And? Did you demonstrate what it does? I am not interested only of the settings...
It's for developers. The expectation is that you write your own programs. It doesn't come with anything beyond drivers out of the box.
@@PixlRainbow , it might has been a good idea to tell that in the video!
@@DypoMage when he says "ESP32", that is a commonly used wireless microcontroller chip which will be familiar with many hardware hackers/DIYers.
Cost should drop some when they get it on RISCV vs Xtensa which is closed IP.
Overall a nice unit, but that refresh will drive me crazy. I'd rather stick with oled.
For the right battery life it's tolerable for what I'd use it for.
But what does it do ?
Would be nice with a larger battery to be used as a portable charger for devices as well.
Looks like something from temu , as in , it costs , but it's rubbish
No find no card
Need a T-Deck with color eink display.
Wtf do you do with it?
you write programs and fuck around. It's for developers.
This is depressing..
Junk
Andy what's a good cheap CB radio that works like the ic-705 or the 7300. I love walking talkis and CB radios but I can't afford a 600 pound to 1,000 pound CB radio and if u see this comment I really a want a CB radio with a water fall if you can find one online
Great E-waste 😂😂😂
What is it for ?????
Seems like mostly a dev platform at this stage. It could theoretically be a Meshtastic communicator/e-reader for text files. Would be more potentially useful if it had a GPS and compass.
It's a book reader like an Amazon Kindle.
To woo women.
Whats power consumation of this?
To wipe your butt
Shutup and take my money
Wtf is it
off-grid communication device maybe
Whatever you want to program it to be
More important is what it isn't.
