Centered on the ESP32-S3 with 16MB flash and 8MB PSRAM, it integrates a full QWERTY keyboard, encoder, and 2.33-inch IPS touchscreen (222×480) for a complete handheld messaging experience. LoRa connectivity is provided by the SX1262 in multiple frequency variants (433/868/915/920 MHz), with a foldable external antenna that maximizes range while keeping the device compact. Location is provided by the u-blox MIA-M10Q GNSS module supporting all major constellations. The BHI260AP AI-enabled IMU adds smart gesture and motion detection. Full audio capabilities come via the ES8311 audio codec with microphone, speaker, and 3.5mm headphone jack. RFID/NFC support and a microSD slot round out the feature set, making this ideal for Meshtastic field nodes, emergency communications, outdoor navigation, and LoRa-based chat applications. ## Where to Buy - [LILYGO Official](https://openhardware.directory/r?to=https%3A%2F%2Flilygo.cc%2Fproducts%2Ft-lora-pager&ref=openhardware.directory&product=lilygo-t-lora-pager&source=md-export) — $80.96 ## Resources - [product](https://openhardware.directory/r?to=https%3A%2F%2Flilygo.cc%2Fproducts%2Ft-lora-pager&ref=openhardware.directory&product=lilygo-t-lora-pager&source=md-export) - [github](https://openhardware.directory/r?to=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FXinyuan-LilyGO%2FT-LoRa-Pager&ref=openhardware.directory&product=lilygo-t-lora-pager&source=md-export) ## Tags `esp32-s3`, `lora`, `gps`, `keyboard`, `pager`, `meshtastic`, `audio`, `lilygo` ## Images ![LILYGO T-Lora Pager](https://nbg1.your-objectstorage.com/openhardware-directory/entities/lilygo-t-lora-pager/ffa97226798d.jpg) ![LILYGO T-Lora Pager](https://nbg1.your-objectstorage.com/openhardware-directory/entities/lilygo-t-lora-pager/202db8973c7c.jpg) ![LILYGO T-Lora Pager](https://nbg1.your-objectstorage.com/openhardware-directory/entities/lilygo-t-lora-pager/e3b90d56d2bf.jpg) ![LILYGO T-Lora Pager](https://nbg1.your-objectstorage.com/openhardware-directory/entities/lilygo-t-lora-pager/e6e98016c49c.jpg) ![LILYGO T-Lora Pager](https://nbg1.your-objectstorage.com/openhardware-directory/entities/lilygo-t-lora-pager/fe82537849d1.jpg) ![LILYGO T-Lora Pager](https://nbg1.your-objectstorage.com/openhardware-directory/entities/lilygo-t-lora-pager/53419413b38d.jpg) ![LILYGO T-Lora Pager](https://nbg1.your-objectstorage.com/openhardware-directory/entities/lilygo-t-lora-pager/c6dbb811d26d.jpg) ![LILYGO T-Lora Pager](https://nbg1.your-objectstorage.com/openhardware-directory/entities/lilygo-t-lora-pager/05373f0ced7b.jpg) > **Battery Powered:** Li-Po --- [View full device page](https://openhardware.directory/devices/lilygo-t-lora-pager)
