Description
The M5Stack Tab5 is not just another ESP32 development board — it is basically a tiny maker tablet packed full of hardware.
In this video, I take a first look at the Tab5, show the built-in demo firmware running, and give a quick tour of what is actually onboard.
Inside the M5Stack Tab5 you get an ESP32-P4 RISC-V main processor, an ESP32-C6 wireless module, 16MB Flash, 32MB PSRAM, a beautiful 5-inch 1280×720 IPS touchscreen, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth, Thread, Zigbee, a 2MP camera, dual microphones, audio codec, 1W speaker, 3.5mm headphone output, USB-C OTG, USB-A host, RS485, microSD card slot, RTC, 6-axis motion sensor, M5-Bus expansion, HY2.0-4P port, GPIO expansion, external antenna options, and support for a removable NP-F battery.
That is a lot of hardware squeezed into one compact device.
I’ll be using this as a development platform for future projects, especially dashboards, IoT controls, Home Assistant style displays, and anything else I can make this little machine do.
This is only the beginning — let’s see what the M5Stack Tab5 and ESP32-P4 can really handle.
