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.

Raspberry Pi Foundation Raspberry Pi 4 Model B

7.5 / 10 Expert Rating

Still a dependable workhorse for memory-hungry Pi 4-era projects, but the Pi 5 4GB now beats it on speed at a similar price.
