i hope the Raspberry Pi 5 is this good - Khadas Edge2 Pro

what I have here I know some of you guys what I have here I know some of you guys are not going to like this is a 300 are not going to like this is a 300 are not going to like this is a 300 single board computer with a price like single board computer with a price like single board computer with a price like that of course it does have some that of course it does have some that of course it does have some moderately impressive specifications moderately impressive specifications moderately impressive specifications including an 8 core octa-core arm CPU including an 8 core octa-core arm CPU including an 8 core octa-core arm CPU with a Max clock speed of 2.25 gigahertz with a Max clock speed of 2.25 gigahertz with a Max clock speed of 2.25 gigahertz we have about 16 gigabytes of LP ddr4 we have about 16 gigabytes of LP ddr4 we have about 16 gigabytes of LP ddr4 memory and 64 gigabytes of emmc flash memory and 64 gigabytes of emmc flash memory and 64 gigabytes of emmc flash storage in the box we have a couple storage in the box we have a couple storage in the box we have a couple Little Manuals here including their uh Little Manuals here including their uh Little Manuals here including their uh oh oh wow embedded service which will oh oh wow embedded service which will oh oh wow embedded service which will allow you to install your preferred OS allow you to install your preferred OS allow you to install your preferred OS directly from the cloud so that'll be directly from the cloud so that'll be directly from the cloud so that'll be interesting additionally it has these interesting additionally it has these interesting additionally it has these two little antennas one is for Bluetooth two little antennas one is for Bluetooth two little antennas one is for Bluetooth and the other is for Wi-Fi you can see and the other is for Wi-Fi you can see and the other is for Wi-Fi you can see these little teeny tiny antennas right these little teeny tiny antennas right these little teeny tiny antennas right there now the actual board itself does there now the actual board itself does there now the actual board itself does have a very decent expandability options have a very decent expandability options have a very decent expandability options and a good set of i o as it should at and a good set of i o as it should at and a good set of i o as it should at this price point and before I get too this price point and before I get too this price point and before I get too far I do want to note this is is the one far I do want to note this is is the one far I do want to note this is is the one I have if you go a little cheaper if we I have if you go a little cheaper if we I have if you go a little cheaper if we cut the RAM and the storage in half you cut the RAM and the storage in half you cut the RAM and the storage in half you get this for 199 which is still get this for 199 which is still get this for 199 which is still expensive for a single board computer expensive for a single board computer expensive for a single board computer also they sent me a fan I'm not sure if also they sent me a fan I'm not sure if also they sent me a fan I'm not sure if everybody gets this oh cool there it is everybody gets this oh cool there it is everybody gets this oh cool there it is Edge 2 active cooling kit yeah I don't Edge 2 active cooling kit yeah I don't Edge 2 active cooling kit yeah I don't think they sent me a case apparently think they sent me a case apparently think they sent me a case apparently this is the case which would have been this is the case which would have been this is the case which would have been cool but it looks like this fan just cool but it looks like this fan just cool but it looks like this fan just screws into the pre-included little screws into the pre-included little screws into the pre-included little holes here looks just like that but we holes here looks just like that but we holes here looks just like that but we we first before I put that on we need to we first before I put that on we need to we first before I put that on we need to check out the actual board I'm going to check out the actual board I'm going to check out the actual board I'm going to go down to a little uh cheat sheet here

go down to a little uh cheat sheet here go down to a little uh cheat sheet here first apparently it has extreme GPU first apparently it has extreme GPU first apparently it has extreme GPU performance that gives us a 4 core GPU performance that gives us a 4 core GPU performance that gives us a 4 core GPU at one gigahertz clock speed and high at one gigahertz clock speed and high at one gigahertz clock speed and high speed Wireless the Wi-Fi is Wi-Fi six speed Wireless the Wi-Fi is Wi-Fi six speed Wireless the Wi-Fi is Wi-Fi six which is very nice I will be having a which is very nice I will be having a which is very nice I will be having a video coming up going more in detail on video coming up going more in detail on video coming up going more in detail on the Wi-Fi six so subscribe don't miss the Wi-Fi six so subscribe don't miss the Wi-Fi six so subscribe don't miss that maker friendly with Pogo pads I that maker friendly with Pogo pads I that maker friendly with Pogo pads I think it's a seven pin yeah if we go think it's a seven pin yeah if we go think it's a seven pin yeah if we go ahead and look here on the back of the ahead and look here on the back of the ahead and look here on the back of the board we have seven pins there for a USB board we have seven pins there for a USB board we have seven pins there for a USB extension you are debugging and it has 5 extension you are debugging and it has 5 extension you are debugging and it has 5 volt power out option additionally here volt power out option additionally here volt power out option additionally here we do have an RTC battery right here we do have an RTC battery right here we do have an RTC battery right here right behind that a little USB port and right behind that a little USB port and right behind that a little USB port and we of course have various interfaces and we of course have various interfaces and we of course have various interfaces and extension or expansion options including extension or expansion options including extension or expansion options including three camera options here on the top of three camera options here on the top of three camera options here on the top of the board and I do believe those support the board and I do believe those support the board and I do believe those support to 48 megapixels and then on the bottom to 48 megapixels and then on the bottom to 48 megapixels and then on the bottom of the board we have more expansion of the board we have more expansion of the board we have more expansion options you could see those right there options you could see those right there options you could see those right there I'm not going to go into Super detail on I'm not going to go into Super detail on I'm not going to go into Super detail on all them including some all them including some all them including some xpwr pads right here on the back now as xpwr pads right here on the back now as xpwr pads right here on the back now as far as everything else here's my little far as everything else here's my little far as everything else here's my little cheat sheet we got our little fan header cheat sheet we got our little fan header cheat sheet we got our little fan header here which I'll be plugging in right here which I'll be plugging in right here which I'll be plugging in right there in just a bit from the fan header there in just a bit from the fan header there in just a bit from the fan header over we have a USB 3 a USBC which is a over we have a USB 3 a USBC which is a over we have a USB 3 a USBC which is a USB 3.1 we have our HDMI out a USBC USB 3.1 we have our HDMI out a USBC USB 3.1 we have our HDMI out a USBC that's a PD only and then of course a that's a PD only and then of course a that's a PD only and then of course a USB 2.0 which it would have been nice USB 2.0 which it would have been nice USB 2.0 which it would have been nice just to make it a three but whatever just to make it a three but whatever just to make it a three but whatever little RGB indicator in there and then little RGB indicator in there and then little RGB indicator in there and then on this side we have a few you different on this side we have a few you different on this side we have a few you different buttons including a little reset button

buttons including a little reset button buttons including a little reset button we have a function button and a power we have a function button and a power we have a function button and a power button right here next to these uh button right here next to these uh button right here next to these uh little camera expansion options little camera expansion options little camera expansion options Apparently that is a digital microphone Apparently that is a digital microphone Apparently that is a digital microphone so depending on even if the quality is so depending on even if the quality is so depending on even if the quality is garbage it's still nice to have oh garbage it's still nice to have oh garbage it's still nice to have oh there's two digital microphones and there's two digital microphones and there's two digital microphones and that's basically it right here where we that's basically it right here where we that's basically it right here where we have that little A and B is the uh the have that little A and B is the uh the have that little A and B is the uh the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and if I do look at Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and if I do look at Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and if I do look at the manual and I still don't know which the manual and I still don't know which the manual and I still don't know which is which but I know the uh the rectangle is which but I know the uh the rectangle is which but I know the uh the rectangle one goes into a and the other one goes one goes into a and the other one goes one goes into a and the other one goes into B and then on top of the board we into B and then on top of the board we into B and then on top of the board we have all our various chips and have all our various chips and have all our various chips and components including that rocket ship components including that rocket ship components including that rocket ship CPU we have our emmc flash storage our CPU we have our emmc flash storage our CPU we have our emmc flash storage our RAM and various other chips to make the RAM and various other chips to make the RAM and various other chips to make the whole thing come together to make a whole thing come together to make a whole thing come together to make a fully functional computer so now let's fully functional computer so now let's fully functional computer so now let's go ahead and pop on these little go ahead and pop on these little go ahead and pop on these little antennas and then install our fan we got antennas and then install our fan we got antennas and then install our fan we got our dangly bits but before we get into our dangly bits but before we get into our dangly bits but before we get into that we need to thank the sponsor of that we need to thank the sponsor of that we need to thank the sponsor of today's video Le node lenode is a today's video Le node lenode is a today's video Le node lenode is a wonderful cloud Computing platform where wonderful cloud Computing platform where wonderful cloud Computing platform where you can spin up various Linux you can spin up various Linux you can spin up various Linux distribution servers or use a wide range distribution servers or use a wide range distribution servers or use a wide range of their one-click installers to get of their one-click installers to get of their one-click installers to get some popular Services you may be some popular Services you may be some popular Services you may be interested in running with ease with a interested in running with ease with a interested in running with ease with a range of configuration choices such as a range of configuration choices such as a range of configuration choices such as a five dollar shared plan all the way up five dollar shared plan all the way up five dollar shared plan all the way up to Dedicated CPUs and gpus there's bound to Dedicated CPUs and gpus there's bound to Dedicated CPUs and gpus there's bound to be something that will fit your needs to be something that will fit your needs to be something that will fit your needs and better yet you could get started and better yet you could get started and better yet you could get started today with a hundred dollar sixty day today with a hundred dollar sixty day today with a hundred dollar sixty day credit just go ahead and check out the credit just go ahead and check out the credit just go ahead and check out the link down below alright it's been a link down below alright it's been a link down below alright it's been a couple hours and I've been playing couple hours and I've been playing couple hours and I've been playing around with this thing and first of all around with this thing and first of all around with this thing and first of all the fan the fan installation is pretty

the fan the fan installation is pretty the fan the fan installation is pretty easy all you do is get the little easy all you do is get the little easy all you do is get the little thermal pad that's included stick to the thermal pad that's included stick to the thermal pad that's included stick to the CPU peel the other end off put the heat CPU peel the other end off put the heat CPU peel the other end off put the heat sink and fan in place so the screws line sink and fan in place so the screws line sink and fan in place so the screws line up with brackets screw it all down and up with brackets screw it all down and up with brackets screw it all down and you are good to go it looks really good you are good to go it looks really good you are good to go it looks really good and overall the installation is really and overall the installation is really and overall the installation is really easy easy easy until you get to the part where you're until you get to the part where you're until you get to the part where you're going to plug in the little fan header going to plug in the little fan header going to plug in the little fan header me I got these big old sausage fingers me I got these big old sausage fingers me I got these big old sausage fingers and by mistake I ripped out some of the and by mistake I ripped out some of the and by mistake I ripped out some of the wires now this is repairable but I don't wires now this is repairable but I don't wires now this is repairable but I don't have the tools to do it so going forward have the tools to do it so going forward have the tools to do it so going forward this is only going to have a heat sink this is only going to have a heat sink this is only going to have a heat sink which I guess is better than nothing which I guess is better than nothing which I guess is better than nothing with that this is the oh wow wizard I with that this is the oh wow wizard I with that this is the oh wow wizard I think is how you say it and this think is how you say it and this think is how you say it and this software here is embedded so it's always software here is embedded so it's always software here is embedded so it's always going to be on there no matter what you going to be on there no matter what you going to be on there no matter what you install to the emmc storage so no matter install to the emmc storage so no matter install to the emmc storage so no matter what you could always like I said hold what you could always like I said hold what you could always like I said hold down that function button press reset down that function button press reset down that function button press reset and it'll boot right on into it to allow and it'll boot right on into it to allow and it'll boot right on into it to allow you to do various system configuration you to do various system configuration you to do various system configuration tasks so when you first boot in this is tasks so when you first boot in this is tasks so when you first boot in this is the screen you get just uh lets you know the screen you get just uh lets you know the screen you get just uh lets you know what's going on if I go over to network what's going on if I go over to network what's going on if I go over to network right away I could go over to Wi-Fi and right away I could go over to Wi-Fi and right away I could go over to Wi-Fi and then I could go ahead and enable my then I could go ahead and enable my then I could go ahead and enable my Wi-Fi so Wi-Fi is currently disabled so Wi-Fi so Wi-Fi is currently disabled so Wi-Fi so Wi-Fi is currently disabled so I'm going to go over here go ahead and I'm going to go over here go ahead and I'm going to go over here go ahead and enable it and then this is the little enable it and then this is the little enable it and then this is the little loading screen it's going to give you loading screen it's going to give you loading screen it's going to give you and the reason why you'd want to go and the reason why you'd want to go and the reason why you'd want to go ahead and enable your Wi-Fi is because ahead and enable your Wi-Fi is because ahead and enable your Wi-Fi is because you you can download like various you you can download like various you you can download like various operating systems through this and just operating systems through this and just operating systems through this and just install them directly it's really nice install them directly it's really nice install them directly it's really nice it takes out the whole needing to like it takes out the whole needing to like it takes out the whole needing to like load it onto a little SD card plug it in load it onto a little SD card plug it in load it onto a little SD card plug it in and all that you don't need to do that and all that you don't need to do that and all that you don't need to do that anymore if we head over to the main menu

anymore if we head over to the main menu anymore if we head over to the main menu we can see our wizard we can write an we can see our wizard we can write an we can see our wizard we can write an image to the emmc dump Network we have image to the emmc dump Network we have image to the emmc dump Network we have some system settings online scripts so some system settings online scripts so some system settings online scripts so if we when we go into the wizard there's if we when we go into the wizard there's if we when we go into the wizard there's not too many options when it comes to not too many options when it comes to not too many options when it comes to the OS installation but they do have the OS installation but they do have the OS installation but they do have guides on their forms of how to get guides on their forms of how to get guides on their forms of how to get other things and you do that through other things and you do that through other things and you do that through here you can also go to the rescue shell here you can also go to the rescue shell here you can also go to the rescue shell get some help configure some stuff but get some help configure some stuff but get some help configure some stuff but if we just go ahead and go to the wizard if we just go ahead and go to the wizard if we just go ahead and go to the wizard here and continue this is going to take here and continue this is going to take here and continue this is going to take us to where we can see our images and us to where we can see our images and us to where we can see our images and you can see right here we have two you can see right here we have two you can see right here we have two Android 12 images as well as the gnome Android 12 images as well as the gnome Android 12 images as well as the gnome and server Edition or versions of Ubuntu and server Edition or versions of Ubuntu and server Edition or versions of Ubuntu now later on we're going to go ahead and now later on we're going to go ahead and now later on we're going to go ahead and try out Android but for now I've already try out Android but for now I've already try out Android but for now I've already have or I already do have Ubuntu on here have or I already do have Ubuntu on here have or I already do have Ubuntu on here so I'm going to go over and reboot our so I'm going to go over and reboot our so I'm going to go over and reboot our system and go into Ubuntu and here we system and go into Ubuntu and here we system and go into Ubuntu and here we are you can see a created my very own are you can see a created my very own are you can see a created my very own user account the default is the one you user account the default is the one you user account the default is the one you saw and the password is the same as the saw and the password is the same as the saw and the password is the same as the username but jumping in here we can see username but jumping in here we can see username but jumping in here we can see it is a slightly modified version of it is a slightly modified version of it is a slightly modified version of Ubuntu well when it comes to the gnome Ubuntu well when it comes to the gnome Ubuntu well when it comes to the gnome configurations for example we have a configurations for example we have a configurations for example we have a little application menu and a little little application menu and a little little application menu and a little workspace switcher down here but other workspace switcher down here but other workspace switcher down here but other than that it's fairly stock it does have than that it's fairly stock it does have than that it's fairly stock it does have Firefox pre-included but for me the snap Firefox pre-included but for me the snap Firefox pre-included but for me the snap packets just wouldn't work so I ended up packets just wouldn't work so I ended up packets just wouldn't work so I ended up needing to grab chromium here is the needing to grab chromium here is the needing to grab chromium here is the system and you can see this is super system and you can see this is super system and you can see this is super quick there's no lag or anything like quick there's no lag or anything like quick there's no lag or anything like that when you're actually interfacing that when you're actually interfacing that when you're actually interfacing with the system they do have some with the system they do have some with the system they do have some interesting choices with the software interesting choices with the software interesting choices with the software they pre-included such as a thunder they pre-included such as a thunder they pre-included such as a thunder there they have hex chat midnight there they have hex chat midnight there they have hex chat midnight Commander transmission which is nice and Commander transmission which is nice and Commander transmission which is nice and a bunch of pulse audio stuff now if we

a bunch of pulse audio stuff now if we a bunch of pulse audio stuff now if we actually go back there and I'm going to actually go back there and I'm going to actually go back there and I'm going to open up our web browser which is uh open up our web browser which is uh open up our web browser which is uh chromium give that a quick open I can chromium give that a quick open I can chromium give that a quick open I can show you that it can handle uh YouTube show you that it can handle uh YouTube show you that it can handle uh YouTube videos and all that perfectly fine I videos and all that perfectly fine I videos and all that perfectly fine I mean it's a very usable computer mean it's a very usable computer mean it's a very usable computer definitely more usable on a using a definitely more usable on a using a definitely more usable on a using a desktop environment than most other desktop environment than most other desktop environment than most other armed single board computers out there armed single board computers out there armed single board computers out there God YouTube homepage is just absolute God YouTube homepage is just absolute God YouTube homepage is just absolute trash so for example playing just like a trash so for example playing just like a trash so for example playing just like a 1080p video here and actually making 1080p video here and actually making 1080p video here and actually making sure this is 1080p so if we change that sure this is 1080p so if we change that sure this is 1080p so if we change that make this theater mode you can see make this theater mode you can see make this theater mode you can see there's absolutely no stutter no lag there's absolutely no stutter no lag there's absolutely no stutter no lag skipping around it is Snappy quick and skipping around it is Snappy quick and skipping around it is Snappy quick and that's a big deal when it comes to just that's a big deal when it comes to just that's a big deal when it comes to just having a usable computer is being able having a usable computer is being able having a usable computer is being able to render 1080p video like this and to render 1080p video like this and to render 1080p video like this and according to the website they could do according to the website they could do according to the website they could do up to 4K or 8K at a I believe 60 frames up to 4K or 8K at a I believe 60 frames up to 4K or 8K at a I believe 60 frames per second and of course this is Ubuntu per second and of course this is Ubuntu per second and of course this is Ubuntu so I could like quickly connect to my so I could like quickly connect to my so I could like quickly connect to my Nas real fast I'm gonna go ahead and Nas real fast I'm gonna go ahead and Nas real fast I'm gonna go ahead and pull a movie that's a of a rather large pull a movie that's a of a rather large pull a movie that's a of a rather large size and I believe this is a 1440p movie size and I believe this is a 1440p movie size and I believe this is a 1440p movie looks like about 20 megabytes per second looks like about 20 megabytes per second looks like about 20 megabytes per second which is pretty average for my piece of which is pretty average for my piece of which is pretty average for my piece of crap router and while it does do this crap router and while it does do this crap router and while it does do this let's go ahead and talk about let's go ahead and talk about let's go ahead and talk about performance and I do got to say the performance and I do got to say the performance and I do got to say the performance of this Edge too is performance of this Edge too is performance of this Edge too is absolutely ridiculous compared to other absolutely ridiculous compared to other absolutely ridiculous compared to other single board computers for a single core single board computers for a single core single board computers for a single core score I got six for 48 and I will note score I got six for 48 and I will note score I got six for 48 and I will note this is without the fan working only the this is without the fan working only the this is without the fan working only the heat sinks so it probably would have heat sinks so it probably would have heat sinks so it probably would have scored just a little bit better with scored just a little bit better with scored just a little bit better with that band spinning so then when we talk that band spinning so then when we talk that band spinning so then when we talk about multi-core it's ridiculous with a about multi-core it's ridiculous with a about multi-core it's ridiculous with a score of about 2600 and that's compared score of about 2600 and that's compared score of about 2600 and that's compared to just under 700 with the orange pie

to just under 700 with the orange pie to just under 700 with the orange pie and just under 600 with the Raspberry Pi and just under 600 with the Raspberry Pi and just under 600 with the Raspberry Pi noted there are major price differences noted there are major price differences noted there are major price differences but the actual cost to Performance but the actual cost to Performance but the actual cost to Performance ratios is there for sure and I mean the ratios is there for sure and I mean the ratios is there for sure and I mean the multi-core score on this Edge too if we multi-core score on this Edge too if we multi-core score on this Edge too if we compare it to for example a 2500 U ryzen compare it to for example a 2500 U ryzen compare it to for example a 2500 U ryzen 5 Pro that has about just over 3 000 so 5 Pro that has about just over 3 000 so 5 Pro that has about just over 3 000 so it's basically as an arm CPU on par with it's basically as an arm CPU on par with it's basically as an arm CPU on par with the performance of a last gen ryzen the performance of a last gen ryzen the performance of a last gen ryzen mobile CPU well at this point it's not mobile CPU well at this point it's not mobile CPU well at this point it's not last gen it's last last gen I believe last gen it's last last gen I believe last gen it's last last gen I believe and then sticking kind of with the theme and then sticking kind of with the theme and then sticking kind of with the theme of performance this is it just about of performance this is it just about of performance this is it just about moved over about 25 megabytes per second moved over about 25 megabytes per second moved over about 25 megabytes per second MPV is pre-installed and we go ahead and MPV is pre-installed and we go ahead and MPV is pre-installed and we go ahead and Skip around Skip around Skip around absolutely no issues no stutters to the absolutely no issues no stutters to the absolutely no issues no stutters to the point where this little single board can point where this little single board can point where this little single board can very well be a replacement for a very well be a replacement for a very well be a replacement for a personal computer something I can't say personal computer something I can't say personal computer something I can't say with most single board computers as I with most single board computers as I with most single board computers as I believe the use case for most of them believe the use case for most of them believe the use case for most of them would be either single use Home Server would be either single use Home Server would be either single use Home Server type things or more or less tinkering type things or more or less tinkering type things or more or less tinkering around now this is an arm system so it's around now this is an arm system so it's around now this is an arm system so it's very difficult to get things like Steam very difficult to get things like Steam very difficult to get things like Steam and all that working but I do believe and all that working but I do believe and all that working but I do believe zero a d is something that we should be zero a d is something that we should be zero a d is something that we should be able to get going so this does ship with able to get going so this does ship with able to get going so this does ship with synaptic package manager if I go ahead synaptic package manager if I go ahead synaptic package manager if I go ahead and open that up 080 the very first and open that up 080 the very first and open that up 080 the very first thing there let's go ahead and check thing there let's go ahead and check thing there let's go ahead and check that and Mark for installation so that and Mark for installation so that and Mark for installation so unfortunately the uh zero ad is not unfortunately the uh zero ad is not unfortunately the uh zero ad is not going to want to work for us at the going to want to work for us at the going to want to work for us at the moment we're having a full screen issue moment we're having a full screen issue moment we're having a full screen issue let's see if a super tucks carts will go

let's see if a super tucks carts will go let's see if a super tucks carts will go ahead and open up for us obviously you ahead and open up for us obviously you ahead and open up for us obviously you can go ahead and use this for uh arm can go ahead and use this for uh arm can go ahead and use this for uh arm emulation and with the ROMs of various emulation and with the ROMs of various emulation and with the ROMs of various retro consoles and things like that if retro consoles and things like that if retro consoles and things like that if you would like to but honestly this this you would like to but honestly this this you would like to but honestly this this Hardware is a little bit overkill for Hardware is a little bit overkill for Hardware is a little bit overkill for even that there we go the download is even that there we go the download is even that there we go the download is just about complete and now just about complete and now just about complete and now theoretically it should work so let's go theoretically it should work so let's go theoretically it should work so let's go to games super text cart and it's to games super text cart and it's to games super text cart and it's opening beautiful let's go there and opening beautiful let's go there and opening beautiful let's go there and let's go here and let's see if that let's go here and let's see if that let's go here and let's see if that works full screen works full screen works full screen 1440p baby let's go and it's really not 1440p baby let's go and it's really not 1440p baby let's go and it's really not saying much but there's absolutely no saying much but there's absolutely no saying much but there's absolutely no performance issues at all performance issues at all performance issues at all so like I just said if this is going to so like I just said if this is going to so like I just said if this is going to be running perfectly fine any uh be running perfectly fine any uh be running perfectly fine any uh emulation should be an absolute Breeze emulation should be an absolute Breeze emulation should be an absolute Breeze including like a Nintendo 64 and things including like a Nintendo 64 and things including like a Nintendo 64 and things like that does technically have a like that does technically have a like that does technically have a dedicated GPU with a couple cores at a dedicated GPU with a couple cores at a dedicated GPU with a couple cores at a gigahertz it's rendering all these gigahertz it's rendering all these gigahertz it's rendering all these Graphics perfectly fine if I was able to Graphics perfectly fine if I was able to Graphics perfectly fine if I was able to get 080 to work that would have been get 080 to work that would have been get 080 to work that would have been fine as well but yeah that's just the fine as well but yeah that's just the fine as well but yeah that's just the one example what I think we're gonna do one example what I think we're gonna do one example what I think we're gonna do real quick is boot in and show you how real quick is boot in and show you how real quick is boot in and show you how easy it is to use their uh oh wow menu easy it is to use their uh oh wow menu easy it is to use their uh oh wow menu thing so I got the the card here I'm thing so I got the the card here I'm thing so I got the the card here I'm just going to hold down the it's a just going to hold down the it's a just going to hold down the it's a little warm I'm going to hold down the little warm I'm going to hold down the little warm I'm going to hold down the function key and hit the reset key and function key and hit the reset key and function key and hit the reset key and now it should boot us right into that now it should boot us right into that now it should boot us right into that embedded system all right here we are embedded system all right here we are embedded system all right here we are connection fail so let's go ahead and connection fail so let's go ahead and connection fail so let's go ahead and fix that so we're gonna go under Wi-Fi fix that so we're gonna go under Wi-Fi fix that so we're gonna go under Wi-Fi waiting Network connected so now we can

waiting Network connected so now we can waiting Network connected so now we can back out of there and then go to our back out of there and then go to our back out of there and then go to our wizard so let's continue continue and wizard so let's continue continue and wizard so let's continue continue and let's go ahead and select Android so let's go ahead and select Android so let's go ahead and select Android so let's download that we can see the total let's download that we can see the total let's download that we can see the total size is going to be just under 800 size is going to be just under 800 size is going to be just under 800 megabytes all right and the download is megabytes all right and the download is megabytes all right and the download is complete so we're going to go ahead and complete so we're going to go ahead and complete so we're going to go ahead and install it and this usually takes install it and this usually takes install it and this usually takes basically no time at all and there we go basically no time at all and there we go basically no time at all and there we go took 53 seconds so just under a minute took 53 seconds so just under a minute took 53 seconds so just under a minute so let's reboot our system reboot and so let's reboot our system reboot and so let's reboot our system reboot and see see what it gives us because I see see what it gives us because I see see what it gives us because I haven't tested this one out oh there we haven't tested this one out oh there we haven't tested this one out oh there we are looks like my TV booting up Android are looks like my TV booting up Android are looks like my TV booting up Android okay so we got a mouse here it looks okay so we got a mouse here it looks okay so we got a mouse here it looks like we have the Google Play store so like we have the Google Play store so like we have the Google Play store so that would be really nice if Google Play that would be really nice if Google Play that would be really nice if Google Play services actually worked on here uh services actually worked on here uh services actually worked on here uh display make that a little smaller HDMI display make that a little smaller HDMI display make that a little smaller HDMI resolution uh well that's Auto I'm gonna resolution uh well that's Auto I'm gonna resolution uh well that's Auto I'm gonna make sure that it's set to the highest make sure that it's set to the highest make sure that it's set to the highest resolution possible which seems to have resolution possible which seems to have resolution possible which seems to have already been 1440p at 60 frames per already been 1440p at 60 frames per already been 1440p at 60 frames per second this might actually be a better second this might actually be a better second this might actually be a better use case than uh Ubuntu if I could get use case than uh Ubuntu if I could get use case than uh Ubuntu if I could get some Android games on here all right some Android games on here all right some Android games on here all right we're connected to Wi-Fi we're connected to Wi-Fi we're connected to Wi-Fi so let's go ahead and sign into the Play so let's go ahead and sign into the Play so let's go ahead and sign into the Play Store all right we're in I shouldn't Store all right we're in I shouldn't Store all right we're in I shouldn't have even uh screwed around with Ubuntu have even uh screwed around with Ubuntu have even uh screwed around with Ubuntu today let's open up the Play Store oh I today let's open up the Play Store oh I today let's open up the Play Store oh I wonder if we can test the audio wonder if we can test the audio wonder if we can test the audio recording capabilities this is a recording capabilities this is a recording capabilities this is a recording test this is a recording test recording test this is a recording test recording test this is a recording test using the microphones that are on this using the microphones that are on this using the microphones that are on this thing so I don't know if that sounded thing so I don't know if that sounded thing so I don't know if that sounded bad but oh it's not letting me click to

bad but oh it's not letting me click to bad but oh it's not letting me click to sign in it's truly a sad day sign in it's truly a sad day sign in it's truly a sad day swipe that up let's try something else swipe that up let's try something else swipe that up let's try something else yeah we try some pug mobile let's try yeah we try some pug mobile let's try yeah we try some pug mobile let's try some pug mobile let's go with that let's some pug mobile let's go with that let's some pug mobile let's go with that let's spoil ourselves with that HD resolution spoil ourselves with that HD resolution spoil ourselves with that HD resolution all right this is where Call of Duty all right this is where Call of Duty all right this is where Call of Duty stopped me so okay I can actually accept stopped me so okay I can actually accept stopped me so okay I can actually accept the YULA and all that I plugged in a the YULA and all that I plugged in a the YULA and all that I plugged in a controller I hope it works the controls controller I hope it works the controls controller I hope it works the controls are not good but I mean it's actually are not good but I mean it's actually are not good but I mean it's actually loaded up and playing so that's kind of loaded up and playing so that's kind of loaded up and playing so that's kind of cool apparently I have it set to Auto cool apparently I have it set to Auto cool apparently I have it set to Auto sprinting so oh I saw somebody over sprinting so oh I saw somebody over sprinting so oh I saw somebody over there oh oh oh I'm stuck I'm stuck I there oh oh oh I'm stuck I'm stuck I there oh oh oh I'm stuck I'm stuck I need to turn up the sensitivity look at need to turn up the sensitivity look at need to turn up the sensitivity look at that oh what's that right there okay that oh what's that right there okay that oh what's that right there okay yeah I can't use the controller that yeah I can't use the controller that yeah I can't use the controller that sucks can I use the keys oh no sucks can I use the keys oh no sucks can I use the keys oh no oh no oh no oh no I'm actually gonna get a Kill that's just disrespectful there's that's just disrespectful there's probably a way to set up the Xbox probably a way to set up the Xbox probably a way to set up the Xbox controller as a Gamepad but I don't have controller as a Gamepad but I don't have controller as a Gamepad but I don't have the time at the moment but it is cool the time at the moment but it is cool the time at the moment but it is cool that this even is a available option to that this even is a available option to that this even is a available option to get in here I mean there's no lag or get in here I mean there's no lag or get in here I mean there's no lag or anything like that the graphics are kind anything like that the graphics are kind anything like that the graphics are kind of trash on a uh 32 inch who's 1440p of trash on a uh 32 inch who's 1440p of trash on a uh 32 inch who's 1440p screen but I mean screen but I mean screen but I mean as good as you're gonna get let's get as good as you're gonna get let's get as good as you're gonna get let's get out there's somebody there's somebody out there's somebody there's somebody out there's somebody there's somebody stop sprinting stop sprinting stop sprinting stop sprinting stop sprinting stop sprinting I actually kill somebody again

all right so it's the next day my uh all right so it's the next day my uh camera died last night the room was like camera died last night the room was like camera died last night the room was like 100 degrees so I was tapping out from 100 degrees so I was tapping out from 100 degrees so I was tapping out from there but this thing right here is there but this thing right here is there but this thing right here is definitely cool if you need a little arm definitely cool if you need a little arm definitely cool if you need a little arm computer that's perfectly capable for computer that's perfectly capable for computer that's perfectly capable for web browsing light gaming and even media web browsing light gaming and even media web browsing light gaming and even media consumption this is gonna be wonderful consumption this is gonna be wonderful consumption this is gonna be wonderful and if you're somebody who has like a and if you're somebody who has like a and if you're somebody who has like a Raspberry Pi as a little home lab maybe Raspberry Pi as a little home lab maybe Raspberry Pi as a little home lab maybe running a small media server this is running a small media server this is running a small media server this is well beyond the capabilities that you'll well beyond the capabilities that you'll well beyond the capabilities that you'll need to do something like that this need to do something like that this need to do something like that this specific 300 configuration is a little specific 300 configuration is a little specific 300 configuration is a little dramatic at three hundred dollars the dramatic at three hundred dollars the dramatic at three hundred dollars the 200 one minute that does make more sense 200 one minute that does make more sense 200 one minute that does make more sense for most people as generally especially for most people as generally especially for most people as generally especially with a arm system like this eight with a arm system like this eight with a arm system like this eight gigabytes is going to be more than gigabytes is going to be more than gigabytes is going to be more than enough RAM and if you are going to be enough RAM and if you are going to be enough RAM and if you are going to be doing something like a media server doing something like a media server doing something like a media server chances are you're going to be either chances are you're going to be either chances are you're going to be either connecting it to your network Nas or connecting it to your network Nas or connecting it to your network Nas or plugging in some USBC external hard plugging in some USBC external hard plugging in some USBC external hard drive to it this device does make me drive to it this device does make me drive to it this device does make me really happy though because it kind of really happy though because it kind of really happy though because it kind of shows what arm systems can truly be shows what arm systems can truly be shows what arm systems can truly be capable of as generally they're looked capable of as generally they're looked capable of as generally they're looked at as really cheap Computing devices at as really cheap Computing devices at as really cheap Computing devices which I mean I have a Raspberry Pi in which I mean I have a Raspberry Pi in which I mean I have a Raspberry Pi in this little a cute little tower case this little a cute little tower case this little a cute little tower case here this is the eight gigabyte model here this is the eight gigabyte model here this is the eight gigabyte model and the actual board was I think and the actual board was I think and the actual board was I think somewhere around 60 to 70 dollars and somewhere around 60 to 70 dollars and somewhere around 60 to 70 dollars and for some retro gaming and simple server for some retro gaming and simple server for some retro gaming and simple server stuff it's perfect but like I said this stuff it's perfect but like I said this stuff it's perfect but like I said this can do really a lot more the main thing can do really a lot more the main thing can do really a lot more the main thing we are missing out on like I mentioned we are missing out on like I mentioned we are missing out on like I mentioned earlier is the ethernet included and earlier is the ethernet included and earlier is the ethernet included and these uh pins right here that are ever these uh pins right here that are ever these uh pins right here that are ever so popular on the Raspberry Pi so popular on the Raspberry Pi so popular on the Raspberry Pi ultimately this isn't going to replace ultimately this isn't going to replace ultimately this isn't going to replace this they are two different use cases

this they are two different use cases this they are two different use cases but this little device here I have to but this little device here I have to but this little device here I have to say is excellent with all that subscribe say is excellent with all that subscribe say is excellent with all that subscribe I'll have a link to a text version of I'll have a link to a text version of I'll have a link to a text version of this kind of review and uh with all that this kind of review and uh with all that this kind of review and uh with all that I hope you have a beautiful day and good I hope you have a beautiful day and good I hope you have a beautiful day and good bye
