Wow, $80. I haven’t looked into these devices since the first one, but I thought the point of them was to be very cheap. I do wonder what these new more powerful ones are capable of. Perhaps the performance justifies the price.
That’s a point, and that is still very cheap. There are many other models still available that are probably a better option for small hobby projects or people learning programming or physical computing.
These are also the higher memory variants. Lower memory variants will likely come later at a lower price point.
Hopefully they do release 1 and 2GB memory varoants which should be $35 and $45 respectively if they follow the pricing of previous models. The performance does look like a big upgrade over the Pi 4 at least.
Those have gotten rather expensive.
But maybe the 4 will become available and cheap now?
Perfect, can’t wait for mine to ship! 🥳
The lack of full size HDMI is still pretty disappointing.
I’d rather have an M.2 connector without requiring a HAT.
I’ll stick with my Orange Pi 5 for now which comes with one, tyvm.
I hope the availability will be better than with the Pi 4.
