SeeedStudio did an eye-opening Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Advertising Current Comparison of Espressif’s ESP32C3, C6, S3 vs MG24 (Arduino & SiLabs) and nRF52840 (Non-mbed from Nordic) as well as [ESP32-C3FH4](https://www.digikey.de/de/products/detail/espressif-systems/ESP32-C3FH4/14115592), [EFR32MG24A010F1536IM48-B](https://www.digikey.de/de/products/detail/silicon-labs/EFR32MG24A010F1536IM48-B/16183994) (SiLabs) vs [nRF52840-CKAA-R](https://www.digikey.de/de/products/detail/nordic-semiconductor-asa/NRF52840-CKAA-R/15929796) – so if power consumption is key for your application, choose [Nordic Semiconductor ASA](https://www.digikey.de/de/supplier-centers/nordic-semiconductor).
