The latest UP Board from AAEON is a mini computer mainboard that supports up to an Intel Core i7-1185G7E Tiger Lake processor with Intel Iris Xe graphics. I’m reluctant to call the UP Xtreme i11 a single board computer because not only does it lack built-in storage, but there are also dual SODIMM slots for […]

$59 Jetson Nano 2GB is NVIDIA’s cheapest AI dev kit to date
NVIDIA’s been shipping Jetson-branded single-board computers featuring the company’s processors since 2014. But with prices ranging from $200 to $1099, those devices haven’t really had the same widespread appeal as lower-priced alternatives like the Raspberry Pi line of single-board computers. Last year NVIDIA brought the price down to $99 with the introduction of the NVIDIA […]
This $10 single-board computer is faster than a Raspberry Pi 3
When the first Raspberry Pi computer launched in 2012, there was nothing quite like it on the market: a $35 single-board computer designed for education, home use, or development projects. These days cheap mini PCs and development kits are plentiful. But I was still surprised to see the Iconikal Rockchip 3328 single-board computer selling for […]
PicoRio dev board PC with a RISC-V chip will be a low-cost, open source Raspberry Pi alternative
The Raspberry Pi line of tiny computers have made a big splash in recent years. For as little as $35 you can get a fully functional computer capable of running a variety of (mostly Linux-based) operating systems. Some models are even cheaper. A bunch of competitors have entered the space, but like the Raspberry Pi, […]
UP Xtreme Lite is a cheaper dev board with Intel Whiskey Lake
A little over a year after introducing the UP Xtreme developer board with an Intel Whiskey Lake processor, AAEON has unveiled a new model called the UP Xtreme Lite. The original UP Xtreme is available for purchase for $299 and up, while the new Lite model should have a lower starting price when it goes on […]
ODROID-N2+ is a faster version of Hardkernel’s $63 single-board PC
A little over a year after launching a $63 single-board computer called the ODROID-N2, the folks at Hardkernel are giving the little PC a spec bump. The new ODROID-N2+ has similar specs and the same starting price. But it has a newer version of the Amlogic S922X processor capable of hitting higher speeds. While the […]
UDOO BOLT GEAR is a $399 mini PC with Ryzen Embedded and Arduino support
The folks at SECO have been cranking out single-board computers under the UDOO brand for a while, and last year the company started shipping the UDOO BOLT, one of the first models powered by an AMD Ryzen Embedded processor. Now the company is taking orders for a new model called the UDOO BOLT GEAR. It’s […]
PICO-WHU4 is a mini PC with up to an Intel Core i7-8665UE Whiskey Lake processor
Aaeon’s PICO-WHU4 is a tiny computer that measures about 3.9″ x 2.8″ making it just a little larger than a pack of playing cards (or a Raspberry Pi). But it’s basically a full-fledged computer powered by a 15-watt, 8th-gen Intel Core processor. I’m reluctant to call this a single-board computer like the Raspberry Pi because […]
MaaXBoard is a $60 single-board PC with an i.MX8M processor
The Embest MaaXBoard is a single-board computer that looks a lot like a Raspberry Pi with a few extra connectors on the board. But instead of a Broadcom processor, it’s powered by an NXP i.MX8M quad-core chip… the same processor used in Purism’s Librem 5 smartphone. Embest is selling a MaaXBoard with 2GB of RAM […]
PICO-PI-IMX8M is like a Raspberry Pi with the heart of Purism’s Librem 5 smartphone
There’s no shortage of Raspberry Pi lookalikes these days. But the PICO-PI-IMX8M stands out as one of the only models I’m aware of to feature an NXP I.MX8M Quad processor. One of the things I find interesting about that chip is that it’s the same ARM Cortex-A53 quad-core processor Purism is using for the Librem […]
$35 Atomic Pi dev board with Intel Cherry Trail now available from Amazon
The Atomic Pi is a small single-board computer that sells for $35, making it about the same price as a Raspberry Pi. But instead of an ARM-based processor, the Atomic Pi features an Intel Atom x5-Z8350 Cherry Trail processor. And while both computers have microSD card slots for storage, the Atomic Pi also comes with […]
UP Xtreme is a single-board computer with a 15 watt Whiskey Lake-U processor
The makers of the UP line of single-board computers and development kits have been offering low-power systems powered by x86 processors for years. Now the company is getting ready to launch the most powerful model to date. The new UP Xtreme is basically a 4.7″ x 4.7″ PC motherboard with support for up to an […]
