Generic Orange Pi 5 Pro 4GB LPDDR5 8 Core 64 Bit RK3588S Single Board Computer, 8K Video Decoding 2.4GHz Frequency WiFi Bluetooth Open Source Board Run Orange Pi OS, Android, Debian, Ubuntu

I love this thing, it works great. Plenty of power. Using for Robotics and AI which it does very well.

Perfect replacement for a worn out PI4B Raspberry MB . . .

Powerful alternative to the raspberry pi. Setup is easy, although some distros are outdated (not too badly at this point). Easily runs media transcoding, PiHole, and more all at once.

This is a powerful little machine with such potential. If only the manufacturer offered any real support to the open-source projects they depend upon to provide an OS and user environment. No official distributions (like Ubuntu, Debian, Armbian) can run on this. Orange Pi offers their own repackaged version of some of these, but they lag behind the official versions and come along with rumors of backdoors or spyware.

it doesn't boot from nvme ssd quick and easy like the official manual said it should. I could not get sound over hdmi. Video playback was constantly stuttering even with low res video. And an odd design choice with the official software is that the default orangepi user account is somehow tied to a couple of system services, so you cannot delete it nor stop the account from autologin on reboot. I spent a solid day and a half working on these issues and i am a tech guy, but i gave up on this product and went back to my raspberrypi. There may be a proper use of this sbc, but it seems like my use case is not one of them

Was able to downoad Armbian framework: OS: Debian GNU/Linux VERSION=24.11.0-trunk.154 VERSION=24.11.0-trunk.160 12 (bookworm) 6.1.75-vendor-rk35xx; in a few minutes. Ran "apt update -y && apt full-upgrade -y", rebooted an everything worked as expected. Powered down and install 256GB emmc chip down loaded the same Armbian-COMMUNITY bookworm framework and used "dd" to load to to /dev/mmcblk0 (emmc). Removed SD card and booted from emmc. Added lxqt and sddm. Upgrade Bookworm to Trixie then added all my favorite apps. Added heatsink to rk3588s. Boots to lxqt in about 9 seconds. Was able to watch a movie on Netflix with chromium-browser copied from RPI5. Was not able to get the Ubuntu Noble version working on emmc which work on SD card. Will try UEFI on NVME when I have some free time. Tried

Good product runs great on ubuntu

Es una placa de desarrollo en verdad muy rápida y eficiente, un poco complejo usar android pero funcionando se ejecuta muy bien con excelente performance. Y en Linux también es muy eficiente para imágenes y OpenCV
