ESP32-S3-BOX-3  vs  ESP32-S3-BOX-3B

he ESP32-S3-BOX-3 comes in two different versions: ESP32-S3-BOX-3 and ESP32-S3-BOX-3B.

The ESP32-S3-BOX-3 represents the standard edition, equipped with four blue accessories,

while the ESP32-S3-BOX-3B provides fewer accessories to meet the needs of beginners who don't require too much unnecessary hardware.

If you don't need many accessories, you can purchase the ESP32-S3-BOX-3B as an alternative.

Here are the distinctions between the two versions:

 

ESP32-S3-BOX-3B=ESP32-S3-BOX-3+ESP32-S3-BOX-dock

 

The Espressif S3-Box3 comes with a ESP32-S3-BOX-3-SENSOR dock that includes an IR transmitter/receiver, a temperature and humity sensor, and a mm wave presence detection sensor.

 

It would be really nice to expose these sensors to Home Assistant.

 

If you specifically need one with a microphone and speaker, the BOX-3B is sufficient, as the BOX-3 only has some additional sensor accessories and adapter boards compared to the BOX-3B.
