The Inkplate 10 combines a large 9.7″ greyscale e-paper display with an ESP32, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and ultra-low power consumption, making it ideal for smart home dashboards.

Transform your large-scale IoT projects with the Inkplate 10, a 9.7″ greyscale e-Paper display boasting 1200 825 pixel resolution and ultra-low power consumption of just 22 A in deep sleep mode.

Powered by the versatile ESP32 microcontroller with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0 BLE, it delivers months of battery life from a single Li-Ion charge, thanks to the onboard charger and Real-Time Clock (RTC) with CR2032 battery holder. Ideal for open-source photo frames, smart home dashboards, or weather displays, its fast 1.61s full refresh and quick partial update support ensure reliable performance.

Getting started is fast and easy with full support for Arduino (100% compatible with Adafruit GFX library) or MicroPython, allowing you to have your project up and running in a few minutes. Expand your setup with microSD card storage for images and data, plus additional available GPIO, IC, SPI, and Qwiic-compatible connectors for seamless integration. Completely open-source hardware and software make customization straightforward for any application. Of course, you’re not alone with our documentation and getting started guides.

Designed for high-performance embedded development, the Inkplate 10 fully supports Espressif’s official ESP-IDF framework. This native environment grants developers low-level control over the hardware, enabling precise memory management, optimized display rendering routines, and custom power profiling to take full advantage of the board’s ultra-low deep sleep capabilities. A USB-C to USB-C cable is included in the package, so you can start using it right out of the box.
