I looked it up rapidly and couldn't figure out the difference with the original OrangePi 5. By the way, the OrangePi 5 is a pretty good SBC. Much better bang/bucks than RPi, and the mainline kernel support is pretty good and getting better with every release thanks to the folks at Collabora. https://gitlab.collabora.com/hardware-enablement/rockchip-35... | |||||||||||||||||

I have a cluster of 3 of the Orange Pi 5 Pros. They're extremely capable machines if you don't need the GPU or NPU (which I don't). That being said, they're more expensive, louder, and less energy efficient than like an Intel N100 mini PC. | |||||||||||||||||

I give OrangePi a lot of points for putting an M.2 slot on the bottom of the PCB. Not only does Raspberry Pi charge extra for their M.2 board, it sits in an obnoxious location above the board where it interferes with many other things one might want to put on top, e.g. any sort of passive cooling. | |||||||||||||||||

Assuming you can get software support for more than one version of 'blessed' distro. | |||||||||||||||||

A non-Broadcom SoC and actually fast network? Absolutely better than any Raspberry Pi | |||||||||||||||||
