Zero 3 1.5GB LPDDR4 Allwinner H618 Quad-Core 64 Bit Single Board Computer with 16MB SPI Flash, Support WiFi and BT5.0, Development Board Computer Run Android 12 TV/Debian/Ubuntu(Zero3 1.5G)

I have the 1.5GB RAM version, and it is well-built with a 1G LAN adapter. At around $25, this is the best single-board computer (SBC) available on the market. Instead of purchasing it from aliexpress.com, I recommend buying it from Amazon for the fastest shipping and product support. I used a Debian 11 image from the OrangePi website, and it works very well and remains stable. If you are searching for an affordable SBC with WiFi, LAN, and a compact form factor, this is the one to go for. Its performance is comparable to the RPi3, but personally, I prefer this one.

The performance of the Zero3 is quite snappy. But the 1.5 Gig version reboots with the ethernet port dead. The wireless connection, if used, still works. If you need a wired connection on reboot the power connection must be manually interrupted. In addition, while the wired ethernet performance is good, the wireless connection is very much less good. At present, I'd recommend using dietpi's Linux version in preference to orangepi's own Linux releases or Armbian's. I have read that the versions with 1, 2, and 4 Gigs of memory do not have problems on reboot, but can't attest to that as accurate.I would not recommend the 1.5 Gig version, unless you are willing to use a fairly slow wireless connection or physically reconnect the power supply on each reboot. In my estimate, manual power off and on at each reboot is an unnecessary and unreasonable inconvenience.

The ultimate Raspberry pi replacement, well done orangepi, seems that orange pi will take soon the leadership of the SBC, this one and the 5 are great devices, recommended.
