I have previously recommended the RK3399, but it was relatively expensive. This time, I would like to recommend a version that costs only 50 Yuan, which is one-third cheaper than before. The key features are 4GB RAM and 32GB storage, providing higher specifications and better playability.
RK3399 Specifications Details
Six cores and six threads, dual Cortex-A72 + four Cortex-A53, 64-bit CPU, with a main frequency of 1.8GHz.
GPU: Quad-core ARM Mali-T860 MP4 GPU; supports OpenGL ES1.1/2.0/3.0/3.1, OpenVG1.1, OpenCL, DX11; supports AFBC (frame buffer compression).
Decoding: Supports 4K VP9 and 4K 10-bit H265/H264 video decoding, up to 60fps.
The RK3399 ARM board recommended this time is available in the seafood market for only 50 Yuan, with 4GB RAM + 32GB eMMC storage, equipped with a TYPE-C interface and a 100M Ethernet port. The TYPE-C supports OTG output display.
It supports Android 11 firmware and can be used as an Android game console. Although it has a 100M Ethernet port, it is sufficient for watching movies. The downside is that there is no HDMI interface; display needs to be connected via OTG. It is suitable for use as a console or a light NAS, but there may not be many other uses. After all, the network port limit is here; as a 100M light NAS, it can provide an experience of NAS. If it suits your needs, you can buy another brand of NAS for a better experience as a beginner.
Interested friends can give it a try, but for a little more money, around 70 Yuan, you can buy one with an HDMI interface and a gigabit Ethernet port. This is something you can weigh for yourself. My suggestion is to spend a little more money to buy a better one. By the way, if anyone is looking for a fully equipped board that has been damaged, it might be a waste of effort. Is there anyone who wants to vote on this? Haha!
