Arduino Nano Every: The Better Nano? – Tests and Shootout with Nano v3

Published at : 23 Dec 2025

So should every Nano be an Every now? I’ll try to answer that …
↓↓↓ Complete description, time index and links below ↓↓↓

With the Nano v3 still available from Arduino (and its cheap clones from the Chinese), they’ve introduced a new Nano: The Every. Its official price is below that of the v3 (not below the Chinese clones) and it’s supposedly pin-compatible to the v3.

So I compared the specs of the Every and the v3 (they’re mostly (!) compatible), tried to run some bit-banging code for the v3 on the Every (successfully!) and more. I found the Every superior to the Nano in most aspects, but not every ;-)

►Wrap-Up
25:00 Summary – Every superior in most areas, but can’t always replace v3
28:28 Conclusions – the Arduino Nano Every is my new Arduino Nano
