Oops, we have a few specs corrections for some of the SBCs.
– le Potato has 100MBit Fast Ethernet, not GbE.
– Renegade has up to 4GB of DDR4
– Orange Pi3 has 2x USB3.0 ports and 1x USB2.0
– N2+ has 4x USB3.0 and 1 micro USB OTG port.
Our sincere apologies for the mistakes! We'll get the video fixed as soon as possible!

RPi with cousins are AWESOME in combination with Yocto and NixOS. Seriously, if you are not doing a pi with Yocto yet you are missing out big time.
🙂
OpenStreetMap has been using PI 4s for OOB access to the servers, with an external USB-C dual supply adaptor for redundant power. Saves about 100W and 1U over dedicating a server to that task.
another good and cheap alternative is the Vero4k by OMSC. small form factor, custom debian os, really good bit of kit.
Can anyone tell me the (presumably Linux?) Ui on the right hand monitor? Looks like xross media bar from PS3/PSP. I can’t seem to find it online!
Trying to use a RPi as a substitute for a modern Mac or PC isn’t really a good use of the RPi’s in the long run, in my experience. I always find them too underpowered for daily use, even the Pi4. That said, I find they’re excellent IoT devices that really shine in applications for which microcontrollers like Arduino lack needed capability (e.g. being able to log into the device remotely). I’ve been using an original RPi to monitor some of my lab equipment for over two years, and it does the job reliably, no Pi4 needed.
Can you do my Taxes next video. K thabx
Just a thing to keep in mind about the N2+: there were some issues reported of all USB ports suddenly failing (mine did too). If I recall correctly it had something to do with a power delivery component that had to be replaced.
4 amps at 5V. thats 20 Watts should be easy to find a 20 watt capable wart
Respberry? 1:49
This video reminded me that Nvidia has the Jetson Nano Dev kit. It’s a good bit more expensive but has an onboard maxwell gpu so could make for an interesting device
Which one would you recommend as a dedicated device for Home Assistant?
linus can you please make a laptop buying guide 2023 edition?
Odroid N2+ is already discontinued?
So about 2 weeks ago I wanted to start getting into home assistant and when looking it up I discovered that you can get older dell Wyse thin clients like the Wyse 5060 for around $35. It came with power supply, case, 4gb of upgradable DDR3 RAM, 8gb of storage that can also be upgraded. And a 4 core AMD bulldozer Apu. With Radeon R5 graphics. I ran xubuntu and how a native version of home assistant on it. Has 4 USB 2.0, 2 USB 3.0 2, display ports and a internal wifi m.2 slot
How about some stupid little project: making a storage cluster out of some of the boards?
How many takes did you do for that catch thing at 6:15? 😅
Still use my Pi Zero that I got free on the cover of a magazine, it still blows me away that a free gift or at the time a £5 device is better than my first PC was back in the day
See I don’t even know what features I want, I’m thinking of using something like these to host my MySQL databases for applications I write on another computer, also for some general productivity like surfing web and word processing
A lot of on screen caption/annotation errors. Otherwise a good video
Correction, "… specialized versions of Raspberry Pi OS, like …", (almost) none of the OSes you named is based on Raspberry Pi OS.
Odroid N2+ hmdi 2.1 4k 60hz sure… So it's hmdi2.0?
Wow it's sad to see the prices have skyrocketed. I got the 4B as my first Pi. It works great as a Moonlight Game Streaming client.
This video came 24 hours too late — bought a used Raspi 4B for 140€ for a small Jellyfin/OSMC-based media center setup. It works very well.
15min long video, and not a single word on software support. wow
AI Linus? Or someone getting face swapped? Its too obvious with the blue shifting behind head. I wonder who is acting as a body though.
The number in the intro was pi too
Not to be rude but I wish you guys wouldn't make such uninformed videos. Whilst the hardware specs of other pi-like devices are better on paper, the actual end user experience is god awful. This feels extremely ignored in your video and is basically advising someone to buy a useless product. A rare poor video from you guys. Please do a follow up and get someone in who knows what they're talking about like Jeff Geerling.
Should've tested the Nvidia Jetson Nano. It is only slightly more expensive than the alternatives and has much more GPU power on tap with the same cpu as the Switch(Tegra X1), and their ecosystem is much better developed too(since it is Nvidia's own official Ubuntu image). Not to mention the CUDA cores for machine learning projects, superior video decoder, good I/O and modularity.
What about Arduino?
