Verdict
Banana Pi BPI-M2 Zero
5.5 / 10 Expert Rating
A functional, extremely cheap Pi Zero clone for the lightest headless tasks, but its 512MB RAM ceiling and dated CPU make the Zero 2 W or BPI-M4 Zero better investments for most new projects.
AAEON (UP) UP Xtreme i11
8.3 / 10 Expert Rating
The most powerful general-purpose x86 board in this roundup -- laptop-tier performance in SBC form, but priced and powered for industrial and prosumer projects, not casual hobbyists.
