Ah, the annual pilgrimage to the shrine of single board computers, where enthusiasts pretend each iteration isn't just πŸ₯± the same Pi in a snazzier hat. 2025's lineup: more compute modules, more benchmarks, more #yawns. 😴 Maybe next year we'll see one that does your taxes. πŸ’Έ

Every Single Board Computer I Tested in 2025 - bret.dk

I benchmarked 15 SBCs released in 2025 across every price point. Here's what stood out, what disappointed, and what the year looked like for single board computers.

But wait, there's more! A new PocketBeagle 2 has been released, now with twice the RAM and an on-board 64GB eMMC for storage.

Oh, and it's now got an industrial operating temperature range. Because it's the PocketBeagle 2 Industrial.

Thomas Megel, of Open Scan fame, has built a multi-camera 3D scanner with a difference: each camera is a #RaspberryPi Zero 2W, and he's hoping to scale the current proof-of-concept 11-camera unit to a human-scale version with 100+ cameras.

Thomas Megel's Multi-Camera 3D Scanner Puts Raspberry Pi Zero 2W-Powered Camera Nodes to Work

11 cameras, with a view to scaling to 100 or more, communicate with a central Raspberry Pi 4 Model B to capture simultaneous shots.

And last but not least, the news that #RaspberryPi is moving to cloud-init - which means no more hacking at firstrun.sh for first-boot stuff, and a more structured approach to things.

Raspberry Pi Aims for More Flexible OS Configuration with a Move to Cloud-Init

The old firstrun.sh script is going away, in favor of YAML-flavored configuration files for a more robust, cross-distribution approach.

An Intel Atom-based (almost) single-board computer from FORTEC Integrated next - which boasts plenty of expansion thanks to three M.2 slots, then takes up all three of 'em if you kit it out with the optional USB Type-C, V-by-One, and Wi-Fi add-ons.

For the edge-AI crowd, Kneron's expanding its efforts with the KNEO Pi - a #RaspberryPi style (naturally) single-board computer powered by a quartet of Arm cores and its in-house neural coprocessor. Claims it can handle YOLOv5 at over 30 frames per second in a 2W power envelope, which is pretty good.

Do you know an low power #SBC which has got both an #AP(Application Processor) and an #MCU(micro controller) and TRMs(Technical reference manual) are available in English in the public?

I don't need something fancy. A Cortex-A7 for the AP with at least 128MB RAM is enough. #riscv is okay too.

The only one I know is #milkvduo. The SoC has got an application processor(either RISC-V or 1xCortex-A53), and two MCUs.

Also I want the SBC to have #Wifi.

Also I want something cheap. not more than 25 USD.

I want use it to build a #customkeyboard which could also act as a micro PC:
