Also Consider

ESP32-WROOM-32D Espressif Systems - If your application primarily needs Wi-Fi (802.11b/g/n) and Bluetooth (v4.2 BR/EDR and BLE) without Zigbee or Wi-Fi 6, the ESP32-WROOM-32D is a cost-effective and widely adopted alternative.
ESP32-C3-MINI-1-N4 Espressif Systems - For smaller, cost-sensitive IoT devices that require Wi-Fi (802.11b/g/n) and Bluetooth 5 (LE) but not Wi-Fi 6 or Zigbee, the ESP32-C3 offers a RISC-V core in a similar compact form factor.
