Seeed Studio’s reTerminal D1001 is an 8-inch capacitive touch display powered by an ESP32-P4 RISC-V microcontroller and equipped with an ESP32-C6 wireless module, a camera, a dual-microphone array, and a speaker.
The reTerminal D1001 is a fully enclosed solution designed for HMI applications such as control panels, vision-enabled IoT terminals, video intercoms, and smart dashboards. One highlight compared to other ESP32-P4 displays is optional support for 4G LTE cellular connectivity using an mPCIe module and SIM card slot, as well as LoRaWAN using a Stamp module.

The wiki includes instructions for installing the ESP-IDF framework, flashing the factory firmware (ESPBrookesia), and using it. The source code for the factory firmware can be found on GitHub. That means the reTerminal D1001 should be mainly viewed as a development kit since there’s no specific “killer” application for it.
The overall features and hardware design of the reTerminal D1001 are fairly close to the 8-inch version of the Waveshare ESP32-P4-WIFI6-Touch-LCD “tablet”, and can also be viewed as a larger version of the M5Stack Tab5 5-inch devkit. The key differentiating feature is the ability to add 4G LTE and/or LoRaWAN connectivity to the D1001.
The reTerminal D1001 is currently sold for $84.90 on the Seeed Studio store, and might eventually become available on the company’s AliExpress and Amazon stores.
