I feel like the Zero 2 W is the new low-power option. Its 4 cores should be enough for most things, the 512MB RAM limit is a bit unfortunate though.

- rcarmo 3y agoGet a Radxa Zero, I've been using one with 4GB of RAM and 64GB EMMC: https://taoofmac.com/space/blog/2023/10/07/1830 https://taoofmac.com/space/blog/2023/10/07/1830
- dark-star 3y agoCool little device, but will it work with the RGB2HDMI, PiStorm or PiSCSI? I doubt it but if it were, that would be awesome
- MrBuddyCasino 3y agoLooks interesting. Page doesn't say if drivers are mainlined?
- blacksmith_tb 3y agoLooks promising, but it's also a pretty different machine - I like the Pi Zero because it's cheap and just capable enough (basically I want a full OS, but I would never consider using a Zero as a desktop). The Radxa-s look quite a bit more powerful, but they're also twice the price, and once you're spending that much, the possible gotchas with software support make it a lot less enticing to me.
- rcarmo 3y agoWhich is why I only pick boards that run Armbian.
- adgjlsfhk1 3y agoit does seem like there is an in between that might be nice. specifically something at the roughly 4 gigs RAM but 5 watts, lower clocks and worse graphics. I think that's just about the right specs for a machine to run Linux without a fan and provide a good entry level experience (i.e. can do some real work in a terminal and watch video in a browser)
