I installed Android on NVMe SSD, and so far it works as intended (although it is tricky because you have to first install the 1.0.0 image and then upgrade. Not only is this not specified on the official website, but the 1.0.0 image is no longer even available). I will probably try Linux if proper GPU support ever comes along (Armbian looks like the best bet). I'm very pleased with this thing as it's ultra portable and can play PS2, 3DS, Wii games.
The Banana Pi BPI-W3 single board computer is designed and developed by bananapi team for professional and enterprise users, powered by Rockchip RK3588 SoC quad ARM Cortex-A76 and quad Cortex-A55 consists of an eight-core CPU processor with dynamic frequency scaling up to 2.4GHz. Embedded high -performance 3D and 2D image acceleration module, AI accelerator NPU with a built -in 6 TOPS computing power. BPI-W3 up to 32GB 64bit LPDDR4X ram, up to 8K@60 HDMI OUT, HDMI IN, MIPI DSI, MIPI CSI, 3.5mm jack with mic, USB Port, 2.5GbE LAN, PCIe 3.0 x4, PCIe 2.0x2, 40-pin expansion header, RTC,POE,SD card, DC power，typec.
Being able to do stuff up to five times faster compared to the rpi 4 is enough "pi killer" for me, thank you very much. And logically, software support may be a problem if you are still using decade-old hardware for whatever reason.
Many WiFi dongles are now working after firmware upgrades. There are plenty of YT videos showing how to install distros onto the NVME memory card. There have been much better software and documentation support on this OPI. Video acceleration is working now on most distros. Still no BT dongle support for mine anyway. I use audio cable to speakers. There will be a M2 card for BT and WiFi but that will mean no memory card.
So I have newbie question: Once the OS is installed on the OPi5, why would any software including RPi4 software not work on the OPi5??? Why would the SW care about which HW it is running on ???
Could you use this as a CCTV hub (I do NOT mean Stream software from another PC) as in can this run software like Blue Iris for 4-6 5MP cameras (PoE) 24/7?
MGS2 would be a good game to test, it's what I use to test PS2 emulation performance because there is a pretty demanding cut scene right at the beginning.
This will replace my Minecraft-Server (well - the children’s mc server), so it needs neither wifi nor bluetooth. I hope it will finally be available in Germany soon.
@@jrwagh333 I personally have 3 x86 pcs. Two of them are running as my homelab servers and one also acts as my router. I did a test on power consumption a year ago and I don't remember the numbers on top of my head. But I was saving like 50 cents per month with a lower powered arm chip for which I would have to spend around $100 more for the same kind of setup that I had. To break even it would take me two years. And I really don't care about that 50 cents or even a dollar per month to have the ability to run full x86 programs on my servers.
I do love these kind of videos too , keep it my dude.
I have actually the GPU working in Armbian, there are instructions, but the drivers are not yet complete, of course.

No matter how appealing the specs sound, it all comes down to software support 🙏 and in that regard, Raspberry Pi is unmatched.
I've been waiting for my RPi for 18 months now. Actually getting the hardware is the most appealing
Also, beware of the Chinese when it comes to anything IT related...

@@alpachino468 why? .. what do you mean?
I just bought it, i mean it should work if the CPU is used by other SBCs

Can we get an update on this board? Please
Why they insist on not having SATA ports on those SBC?

Might be difference in chipset, sensors etc

Thanks for video. Are you able to give a link to where people can buy that m.2 wifi and bluetooth card that works in Orange Pi OS?
Are you saying the other RK3588 SBCs did have the hardware accelerated video decoding in Ubuntu 22.04 while this one didn't? It looks very suspicious
What is the touch display that you used in the video?
Used google Lens to find it out it's an espressoDisplay

Use Armbian as OS for this board. Armbian is probably #2 in fast support after raspbian. Much much better than the OrangePi joke of an OS.

Use heatsinks. Thats what the cpu is throttling.

Until the software catches up...no thank you. Raspberry Pi still the king of software.
Very true. No matter the specs, it all comes down to software support.
Not really, if you consider yourself as a tinkerer then you're making excuses
For $100, I can get a used PC which will be 10x more powerful than this. No thanks!
Link me
And the power cost?
@@TechHut I tried to link a few from ebay but it seems you have some filter that is blocking them.
