here is Radxa site

sold out on aliexpress but a partner of Radxa has the 8GB model for sale (4GB sold out as of right now), with the heatsink and shipping to UK it costs
£86 (£10 shipping)

the Soc inside it N100 is good performance upgrade compared to the ageing SOC in Odroid N2+ but I was wondering what about the GPU part of it and what downsides would it have compared to the similarly priced Odroid N2+
thanks.
Also The product page on Radxa also makes mentions of upgrade options to the 8 core variants, likely i3 N305 and the 32 EU GPU. Hope they’ll elaborate on that more soon.

anyone interested?

This is not an Amlogic product so no CE support possible.

thanks, that’s a shame, been using CE for a long time and hoping a decent chipset comes out with better performance than my ODROID N2+
search continues

Better performance for what? The s922x is a beast for CE.

It’s been tested. If you type in n100 kodi in goole it should show you kodi forum with topic about it.
You could always try Libreelec :wink:

If you want to use heavy skins or addons that load up lists from TRAKT and IMDB with like 1000 entry’s. The chipset is 5 years old, technology advances allot in 5 years

yeah I’m not in rush to buy anything. I think give it 6 months then this hardware could get into more hands.

it’s going to push AMR boxes to get cheaper I think.
they released one with N100, 8GBram, wifi6 , 64GB EMMC for £71
