I am starting a new YouTube channel devoted to SBCs. If there’s any possibility of receiving a discount or free 4GB board, I would happily switch my channel focus to this board.
I have seen a beta of a major OS for this board and would appreciate an opportunity to get a jump on creating content about it.
Thank you for reading my request. I hope to hear from you soon.
Keep up the good work!
Unfortunately, most Amlogic SoC doesn’t doesn’t RGB interfaces. Even it has, the pin mux will not be the same as the Pi 40P GPIO.
Will it support Secure Boot ?
SD Card encryption ?
Any way to add ethernet support as well ?
how can i get one ? 
Virtually any SBC can do that.
It has a USB 3.0 Type C port, you can add a USB ethernet adapter, or a hub for many devices.
I don’t intend to sound like an idiot, but the 40 pin GPIO pins on this, would they work with an “accessory” designed to the Pi HAT Specs. I’m asking this as this SBC along with this “HAT” would be perfect for my distributed 5G/4G network I’m working on.

No, As mentioned above GPIO pins are not compatible with RPI GPIO.
Here.
Amlogic have different pinouts.
The CaribouLite project uses SMI interface to communicate with the Pi, which is not available on the Zero.
Thank you. Just checking. Sorry if it was a stupid question. I’m more on the design and development side of things rather then hardware projects these days.
Hello, i am an embedded kernel dev, i also actively use 3D Printers, i would like to bring Octoprint / Klipper / Moonraker / Fluidd / Mainsail to this device.
Its offloading all the printing calculations from the printer board to a pi, wich is nessesary for fast printing. As u can use old 8bit board stutterfree to print high detailed curves at speeds beyond 200mm/s
The pi zero can do but with mjpg_streamer to monitor prints and a snappy webinterface it is overloaded.
Ive been searching long for proper hardware for this task, then the well known thermal throtteling of S905 and cooling solutions has to be checked
Normally this would run under raspbian so i have to check for stable Kernel and proper hardware encoding/decoding for the Mali, im also running coreelec on amlogic boxes with S905/S912 so amlogic development in not new to me. Maybe cherrypicking from coreelec-ng to push the SOC to its limits.
But proper Archlinux support is nice to have too, As my last project bringing full Ryzen Renoir support for Manjaro/Archlinux on Lenovo 15ARE05
The Pi zero never had enough Power to drive the Caculations and stream Video at the same time.
If this works (im from germany: gehen die weg wie geschnitten Brot/they will sell like cutted bread)
would be nice to get some dev sample, and if its good i will recommend to the whole 3d printing / coreelec community
Sincerely yours
Andreas Voigt
ps: hope youre able to produce enough…
Update:
Mainline U-boot and kernel is running on Radxa Zero now. And we just got mainline AOSP running. Thanks to the great work done by Baylibre.
I would like to be able to buy 1.
some have already asked but hope for a re-ask, will their be an external wifi antenna connector on the board? or is that an area of unpopulated pads I see for one 
any time and manufacturing capacity for first party accessories?
USB C to Ethernet/USB 3 hub Hat ?
USB C to USB 2.0 Type A? Ive seen thousands of those to plug the PI Zero into a usb port.
how warm or hot do S905Y CPU’s get at idle and full load? would heat sinks be available?
will this board rely mostly on third party accessories?
thanks for the development of this amazing ‘zero’ upgrade board, it certainly give the zero more horse power to do more tasks.
this project looks amazing,
usb-c !!! yes
faster, and more ram!! yes
I think you’ve got a real winner here.
how can I get my hands on one to play with? are they for sale any time soon, or is there a early test release that I can get hold off?
regards
CoreELEC is now running on Radxa Zero
Hi guys, I already make 2 quick videos about this amazing new board!!
this will be an amazing rockpi family
That was fast.
Please share link to Mainline uboot. @SleepWalker have already recieved it and want to prepare a uboot to be used with freebsd.
Also thanks to the work by the CoreELEC team, EmuELEC is also working on the Radxa Zero, and I must say I am very impressed by this device considering the size.
I will release a testing img very soon for those that want to try it.
