Verdict
Firefly ROC-RK3588S-PC
7.5 / 10 Expert Rating
The original RK3588S design, still notable for UEFI boot support that makes standard Linux installs far easier.
Orange Pi Zero 3
7 / 10 Expert Rating
A genuinely capable ultra-compact budget board, beating the Pi Zero 2 W on RAM and wired networking if you can live with a smaller community.
