Overview

Inkplate 10 brings the clarity and efficiency of large-format e-paper to DIY electronics. With its 9.7-inch recycled E-Ink display, ultra-low power design, and full Wi-Fi + Bluetooth support, it’s ideal for smart dashboards, wall-mounted displays, and always-on visual interfaces. Just plug it in and start developing. Inkplate 10 is fully compatible with Arduino and MicroPython, and it’s entirely open-source.

The high-resolution screen supports grayscale rendering, partial updates, and fast refresh times, while its ESP32 microcontroller ensures smooth wireless operation. It also includes a microSD slot, RTC, and GPIO expansion through I²C, SPI, and EasyC/Qwiic. Whether battery- or USB-powered, this display works for weeks or months thanks to its energy-efficient design. And with a 3D-printed case and optional battery, Inkplate 10 is ready to go wherever your project takes it.
