The Orange Pi 800 is a keyboard-integrated single-board computer that rivals the Raspberry Pi 400. With a six-core SoC from Rockchip and 4 GB of LPDDR4, as well as numerous connections, the keyboard computer is aimed in particular at experienced hobbyists who want a compact mini-PC.
All-in-one keyboard uses ARM Cortex-A72
The all-in-one system is based on a Rockchip RK3399 with two ARM Cortex-A72 and four ARM Cortex-A53 with 1.8 and 1.4 GHz clock frequencies respectively. An ARM Mali-T860MP4 graphics processor with 4 compute units and 900 MHz takes care of the image output, which is optionally via a VGA connection or HDMI 2.0a.
The specifications of the 286 The manufacturer specifies the keyboard computer measuring 122 × 22 mm (W × D × H) as follows:
- Rockchip RK3399
- 2× ARM Cortex-A72@1.8 GHz
- 4× ARM Cortex-A53@1.4 GHz
- 1× ARM Mali-TP860MP4
- 4 GB LPDDR4 with 3,200 MT/s
- 64 GB eMMC storage
