The device contains one main board, now is it ESP8266, LoRa modul and 2″ LCD.

You can buy a lot of boards to Core. For example wave generator and logic analyzer, board with temperature/humidity/light sensors and more.

The developers shared tweet about new/another Core on twitter. Now, there is the surprise. The new board will contain ESP32.

So, the latest M5Stack board includes ESP32 with 3D antenna, TF card slot, 2×15 pin header, on-board 1W speaker and 2A IC for charging of batteries. You can use USB TYPE-C, 2″ LCD module with 320×240 resolution, reset button and connetor for another I2C devices.
