Battle of the Zeros

My lamp broke. Now my room is de-lighted.
(Great video, thank you!)

Thanks for the objective review, Radxa will improve the software and documentation. Starting with the Radxa Imager tool first.

THANK YOU!!! I've been looking for a head-to-head comparison on these specific boards! Much appreciated! 👍

I am delighted that you focused on usability and support. For us hobbyists, giving a concise overview of an expected user experience...kudos to you! Something I wish board manufacturers understood is that most hobbyists lack the dedication and skill set to make something from a spec-sheet and base SDK.

I'm delighted to find a new maker channel with great content!

Delighted to see the different kinds of projects that these little SBCs can be used for. Too many projects! No time!

Delighted! That was a great review. I have selected the OrangePi for my future sUAS (drone) projects. The form factor, OS availability, and amount of RAM are my criteria.

i was truly delighted to see how unbioaased this was and that you arent afraid to just crap on the pi where it deserves to be crapped on, namely, the performance.

Delighted but I feel I need to watch this over again with a notepad so that I can sort of get my head around all the information that you covered without charts 😉

Delighted to have found your channel,and it was a fair comparison

Got here from the video 'Radxa X2L: Mini PC and a Pi had a BABY!' Nice haircut, very delighted when swapping back to the other video. :)

delighted to see a comprehensive comparisons of the boards strengths and weaknesses

Orange Pi and Radxa's impressive specs are not enough to merit my purchase. Simply delighted!

delighted to see more sbc content/comparisons

delighted that you were consistent in calling it eemc instead of emmc

Delighted to watch this video. Super informative thanks. Rarely is the processing power the most important factor for me - documentation and ease of use for the win.

Delighted to find this new channel great side by side review thank you

Delighted to see a good review of these options.

Was delighted to see these three compared

Delighted to see such a great comparison vid.

Delighted to see the comparison, the Radxa sounds best for my needs. thanks for doing my homework for me.

I'm absolutely delighted to find another interesting RUclipsr covering cool electronics! :)

I'm always delighted to watch your videos. I always learn something new and I really enjoy them. Keep up the good work!

I was delighted to watch this video as a person new to SBC computing. Since this video is a year old, I wonder if the support for the Radxa has matured further to change its score.

Excellent video, I was delighted to watch it!

I am very Delighted by the results. That 512megs truly gimps the Zero2W. It also used to lock up when pushed a little too hard. Anyway, good video! 🙂

delighted to find a new channel!

Delighted. I too was curious about the small small sbc's... I'm glad I chose to use my Pi zero 2 w as my home DNS only.

Thank You for making this video. It's so elaborate, unbiased and helpful.
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

I am delighted to watch this comparison of zero boards. Thank you for this great video.

Delighted to know the differences between the zeros, I was looking to buy one of these for my homelab setup!!

Delighted to watch your comparison.

Thank you. Very delighted indeed about this comparison.

delighted . I would love more content on radxa and luckfox , and love your videos not to long not to short

Delighted, thank you for the great content. I am going for the rpi zero 2w to build a camera doorbell as my 1st project.

I asked on the raspberry pi forum about why the current versions of the OS were not listed. I got no answer and my post was removed without explanation. I guess it's not something they want to talk about. You have download the current image from the web site and then can choose it from the Imager.
The other factor to consider is the community that can support the device. Despite problems with the Raspberry Pi forums and the occasional toxicity of the Raspberry Pi Reddits, I think the Raspberry products still win here.
Delighted. :D

I was so delighted to see a video comparing the boards i have just been researching for a quadruped! RPI has the best SBC base, but their boards are just mediocer now considering the technology availability like in the Nvidia jetson Orin. I really need a form factor like these or even the compute modules (comparison suggestion!?), but almost landed on the Radxa for the SoC alone. Considering how amateur my knowledge is on programming, it looks like RPIZ2W is the safest option.

Delighted I’m just getting into knowing about other options then raspberry pi n small cpu /cp actually been wanted to make something batter then flipper zero lol but ur videos was very informative

Delighted
This was an interesting video as I just bought my first SBC, a Raspberry Pi Zero 2W.

I was super delighted!

This was a pretty good video, very informative!

My first impression is, I am delighted to meet you. I learned a lot from this review; Thank you.

Definitely Delighted! Great review and at the right time for my project. Thanks.

"Delighted" I liked the scientific approach to the ratings. Thank you!

Delighted to see this comparison.
Radxa boards always have great specs, but there's always something lacking elsewhere.

I agree and am delighted with your grading and that it depends on one’s use case. I used a few Raspberry Pi Zero W’s to ‘smartify’ some UPS’s in my house using NUT. Absolutely minimal performance needed for that… just a usb connector + wifi running headless. I even found a remote iPhone monitoring app. Inexpensive and reliable. 😊

Very informative, plus I like your format and presentation! Thanks and kudos!! Since I want a amall form SBC with good camera capabilities, I'll stick with the Pi Zero 2 W; Ive already excluded ESP32 Cam.

I’m delighted. to have found this work up. Thank You

The Raspberry pi zero needs to be updated to 2gb ram add a couple bucks to the price and most people would agree with the price increase

Thank you, I was wondering about these boards. I was delighted.

Great video. I was delighted to see a Wisconsin license plate on your pegboard.

Delighted with your comparison of the three small form factor SBC boards. I have the Raspberry Pi Zero 2W and I just got the Orange Pi Zero 2W.
The Raspberry Pi has great ease of use and documentation, but average performance. The Orange Pi so far does not have hdmi output, so it is a work in progress.

Delighted. I am just getting into the Raspberry PI but had seen the Orange PI and was wondering if it was a better option for an LLM. That's how I found your channel. Thank you for the info. I might give the Orange a try for the Deepseek R1 project, but I will stick to Raspberry's for everything else. Have a good one.

Great comparison! It's good to see more Orange Pi zero 2W videos on youtube. By the way, one major difference that puts the Raspberry Pi Zero 2W way back is the RAM memory which is DDR2, besides Orange Pi and Radxa that have DDR4 which is a huge difference in speed that sometimes leaves the Raspberry Pi Zero 2W unusable for some applications. Great video!

Delighted! I figured I would learn the basics and start with the Pi Zero 2 W! Once I Master That, I will move up to the Raspberry Pi 5! I want to learn the in’s & out’s of these SBC’s! IOT (internet of things) is The Future! I didn’t have the luxury of a Stable Learning Environment for Many Years of Exile! Now I’m Back, I am eager to learn how to code and develop cool gadgets and Create something Awesome! 😎 this is Great Stuff! I’m sorting out my Amazon Order right now! I want to master these Raspberry Pi’s!

When I heard the way you are trying to get people to comment on your video, I was Delighted. Actually Smart though! It works!

Delighted to discover your channel

Setting an entire category on "does it have a camera header?" and "are the GPIOs 100% equal to theirs rival?" it's a wild take. Even those 2 points are true there's more to it like an LCD header for projects or industrial use, that most likely it will be the end purpose of most of those SBCs. The performance test was great showing that even the best CPU won't hold up if the software stinks

Delighted! Thanks for a great comparison…

I think that's a fair assessment.

Delighted. Interesting comparison. I've subbed.

I was delighted to see a comparison of these 3 boards. I just bought the RPi board but will have a better idea which board to pick if it doesn’t meet my needs.

I'd be interested in the radxa zero 2 pro. It seems to be a faster spec than the 3.

Great video delighted with the score.

Just found your channel and wow, what a fantastic job. Followed!🎉 (Delighted)

I am truly delighted. Currently I am starting my journey with electronics, so I don't have specific plans, but I suppose thet Orange Pi Zero 2W will suits my needs.

This was helpful. I'm delighted that there's competition for the Raspberry Pi, but it looks like it's going to be the Pi Zero 2w for me.

Delighted! great review!

Delighted to see your comparison, thank you.

" delighted " that it covered quite a few aspects of each board.

Delighted, thanks for your effort

Delighted. thanks for this great explanation.

Subscribed - delighted.

I'm delighted, thanks for alternatives

Hi Delighted, nice comparative test with simple but efficient criteria easy to remove if somebody doesn't care about a particular test - this kind of test is quite important, because results sometimes bring surprises up. :)

I appreciate that review. In fact, one could say I'm delighted with it. With Zeroish things, I would be interested in performance to power consumption.

delighted to know the orange pi can be used as a desktop successfully!

Delight(ful)ed video.

Thanks for the video. Would be nice to compare power draw of those modules, as it might be a crucial point for battery powered applications. Delighted to subscribe to you channel)

Delighted to see a review that didn't stop at the paper specs, as others noted great hardware with poor documentation and support is a paperweight.
One thing I wish more reviews focused on was the low level hardware, to me the real selling point of these sbcs is the ability to directly interface and control hardware in a project. This seems pretty glossed over usually, with a brief mention of a number of gpio (which is cool, but other peripherals and especially niche ones like i2s go unmentioned entirely).

Delighted 👍🏾 I’m just here for the knowledge 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Thank you for your review of the Zeros SBC, it have been an enlightment for decision on selection of board for tiny small projects, as for the camera related i would also consider Milk-V duo board although it would have a the lowest score for the stated criteria

As a known liar, I was delighted to not watch to the end. 😉

I got a couple of these in a drawer because they're cute and i deluded myself into thi king i would use them for something

Didn't know orange pi existed until this video. I want to make a micro desktop now. A camping computer in an ammo box 😊

Great video, completely delighted.

Delighted to see this comparison. I own a Orange Pi 2W and a Radxa Zero 3E(basically the 3W but 1Gbps ethernet instead of WiFi). Can not agree more on the underwhelming state of Radxa's documentation and "Official" OS. Building the Radxa Zero 3E as a PiKVM and the Orange Pi Zero 2W has been a USB OTG Tailscale router for over a year.

Delighted - subbed!

I am delighted I used an RPI zero 2 iny recent project. Power consumption was my top prio, btw :)

I was delighted and appreciate the time you invested.
I have and OrangePi with 1.5Mb and the expansion board to make embedded development, easier, (Ethernet speeds things up) I had hopes of using the 24 pin pin connector in place of the 40 gpio pins for some embedded apps, but it appears to be connected to an ASIC chip which locks in the pin functions.
One disappointment in the Orangepi is the lack of GPU support in all the linux distributions, maybe it works in android? The vast variety of ready to run Raspberry pi code gives that board a huge advantage for rookies who need to build on to a working code base.

delighted! I am curious about how these boards or other boards would perform with different screens? I am unsure what screens are better compared to others and how to figure out the compatibility.

Delighted to know if you evaluated the Radxa wi-fi capability? Asking because I got it when it first came out and their drivers for their own images were not working. I had to use Armbian to get its full functionality.

Delighted by this video. New to the channel. Subscribing now. One way I want to start using my Pis is as Linux servers to host services which ESP32s can access on a local network to coordinate activities like controlling lights, sounds and sensors.

Which is the best choice for light weight Image Processing and ML tasks? Consider the price to performance when recommending.🙂

Delighted to make a comment. I’d like to see the ease of use for specific use cases. I’m thinking the raxda for an ip kvm due to the mali and emmc drive. Seems like a logical long term choice. I think the addition of emmc over sd means it can be used for a long term robot or appliance. Thoughts?

Delighted to see a video done right.

Is it possible to overclock the O(range)pi ?

Delighted. I think we all use boards differently. I use as headless docker servers, in which case the Orange Pi beats the pants off of the Raspberry Pi. Keep in mind I only have power connected to both boards. The Orange Pi is always snappier, with 4X ram than the RPI. I don't have a Radxa, but I'm sure it would be better. Good comparison!

Thanks for this, I bought a pi zero 2w with the intention of running home assistant on it, but with only 512mb of ram, it is difficult to get running, and kind of sucks to use. I think I am going to repurpose it as an octoeverywhere board for the time being rather than returning it. In the meantime, I was looking into the OPi 2w or the Radxa 3w for HA. Since HA Supervised needs Debian, it looks like either will do nicely, which I am DELIGHTED to see.

delighted, great topic
