Oddbean new post about login | logout Heltec V3 is great, affordable starter board easily get on amazon LilyGo TDeck is more advanced option Then you're down the rabbit hole
LilyGo TDeck is more advanced because of the integrated screen? And that you can use the device itself to communicate? Or does it have other features that makes it better/more advanced than other devices?
You can, they are in progress of making an improved UX for the t-deck. It will be very slick. Depending on your dev skills, you can start playing with early versions today. It just wont be available in the easy to use web firmware flasher. Not sure when it will be delivered. For now, it is very similar to UX of the other nodes with a keyboard attached and you can still Bluetooth in via phone etc.
TDeck has more features like keyboard, more IO options built in and bit larger RAM (I believe) Tbeam is same without keyboard (great device) RAK also has some great dwvices Simplest is to just get started with a simple Heltec V3 or LilyGo T-Beam (SX1262/SX1276) as the T-Beam comes with a place for standard 18650 battery Checkout more hardware options with details here👇 https://meshtastic.org/docs/hardware/devices
