- Today we’re going to be looking at the M5 Paper, an ESP32 based tablet-style development board with a 4.7” e-ink touch display. The combination of a WiFi-enabled tablet with accessible IO as well as an ultra-low power consumption touch display really opens up a world of possibilities for home automation, dashboards, monitoring and data logging.

Tablet people want: Ipad Pro Max😯
Tablet that I want: M5 paper😂
iPad Pro max is not a real thing and dawg you aren’t special for wanting an e ink tablet, they’re dope and I know plenty of regular dudes and tech buffs that want them
@@christianmccauley7340 obviously I also want an iPad pro max. But when you use an iPad you do not know anything about what is happening in the background. But you can program and you can know what's happening inside, how the technology works in this kind of eink tablet. iPad Pro Max will fulfill our day to day life uses where m5 paper will fulfill our curiosity.
this man clearly doesn’t know anything about an iPad
I could use one of these for several of my projects, great find sir :)
Looks amazing
That's a great development board!!! Maybe a bit thick, though
This is ideal for a home console. a couple of these around the house would be ideal. I'm going to look into Bluetoothing my heating controls for use with this.
Yeah they’re great, it’s just a pity they’re still quite expensive!
@@MichaelKlements Yeah 70 quid is a bit expensive for what it is I suppose. I'm thinking of using one or two as main hub's and using the m5 core's as access nodes for other spots. Considering alternatives tend to come with no casing or power and the need for RPis or Arduino separately. I can swallow the 70 quid price tag.
I definitely agree with you on this. These are at least standalone devices, ready to be used. If you use a Pi or Arduino then you’ve still got to worry about cases, batteries, displays, buttons/inputs, charging circuits etc.. They’ll likely land up being comparable in the end
I need it...NOW :D
Discontinued already, lol
i bet everyone here are not normal...i feel in home
the link to buy is not working
Even if it's discontinued, was it possible to use a Bluetooth keyboard with it and some kind of basic text editor ?
Hey! I had the same Question. The M5 as a Freewirte Alternative. Do you know the Answer now? Thx.
@@oxusblues6658 Nope sorry, I lost interest in this product since.
@@trixniisama Thanks Man!
@@trixniisama Did you find any alternatives?
Shoot !! This has been discontinued 😯
By the way I have a question. It's based on esp32. So the touchscreen display should be functioning much more faster the video shows. Can you explain what is the problem of it?
E-Ink displays are always slow with screen updates. Same for E-Books (Kindle, Tolino, etc.)
It's not the esp32 that is slow, it's the updating of the e-ink display, as Heinzable has said. This display is actually pretty fast for an e-ink, I've got some other displays which take 15-20 seconds to do a full refresh. Have a look at my TH-cam subscriber counter video, that display takes significantly longer to update.
@@MichaelKlements I got it.
I wish some some non android e-book reader made similar screen size like 4 or 5 inch.
There’s the old Kobo mini, but also wish for a modern linux-based device
InkPalm 5.
What a pity… Not available anymore!?
Can it do web browsing?
The ESP32 doesn't have enough power or memory to load full web pages. You would be able to load basic texted based html pages though.
Amazon book can we read it?
Not natively, but you might be able to code an app to display an ebook.
where to buy?
I've updated the link in the video description - they're available on pre-order again.
Меga pwngochi ;)
No work link banngood
I think they've been discontinued
Bummer it's EOL. Shame as it looks like it'd be a nice platform for hobby projects.
Sad
