What makes the ESP32 chip better over the older ESP8266? - alice_amira - 11-08-2024
The ESP32 is an upgraded chip over the ESP8266, designed with more advanced features and higher performance. Unlike the ESP8266, the ESP32 includes a dual-core processor, integrated Bluetooth (both Classic and BLE), and enhanced Wi-Fi capabilities, making it more versatile for IoT and smart home applications. It has more GPIO pins, higher processing power, and lower power consumption modes, allowing for more complex, efficient projects. Overall, the ESP32 is ideal for developers seeking improved performance and additional connectivity options in their devices.
