hi... can you possibly do a tutorial on this board for headless install with ssh. Also can this in the end turn into a USB-C Gadget like the pi0 or pi4? Thanks
@danielkrupski3443 Says:
Mr. Scissors, I presume?
@Ai_Track Says:
does it the usb-c support DP port?....
Thanks

Today I managed to run octoprint on orangepi zero 2w 2gb. Runs fine.
@gwandrer Says:
Great explanations and amazing details during comparison with other boards. Thanks for the time you put in this video!

Aren't Chrome based browsers regarded as bloatware? I've seen that comment made by fans and staff of Linus Tech Tips. How well do these limited functality SBCs do with Firefox?
@Tomb-G19 Says:
Will the orange pi zero 2w run raspberry pi os?
@djdonbentley2141 Says:
I'm gonna try Android on here instead of linux .
Running Linux on this machine is a disappointment , my cheap Amazon
tablet runs faster. Keep in mind also , this is with me spending more for the
4gb memory version.

price wise and perfom wise this beats raspberry version 6-0
@sumits.parale8735 Says:
Can we port bactocera on Orange pi zero 1gb?
@shazanmahmud2973 Says:
Can i Connect it to laptop with usb cable without display conveter
@splitlang Says:
thank you
@_droid Says:
I wouldn't get too excited over it just yet. Most stuff doesn't work, as shown here. If you try upgrading the official Orange OS Arch Linux it will completely break the install and it won't boot any more. GPU acceleration doesn't seem to work at all. Sound doesn't work either (at least over HDMI). Maybe this stuff works in Android but I have no use for that. So it makes big claims in the specs but practically nothing works. It's been out for quite some time now and no updates from Orange Pi. Doesn't look good.

Congratulations on 1 million subs Chris! Well deserved, great content and delivery

I started to use SBCs when I started building robots. All the robotics info on explaining computers was of tremendous help. I have an SBC from Orange Pi: it fried itself in the first 10 minutes of operation. And orange Pi would not replace it. Having used 3BPi boards, including the M2 Zero, I have found Banana Pi has equivalents to the Orange Pi boards and they are much more reliable. PS...do you think you'll ever build the hovercraft. That would be very exciting.
@jaxxx66 Says:
Needs DietPi!
Any OC options?
@miwikotel6251 Says:
How does Librecad run on this board ?
@oliverhale85 Says:
GPIO in Android...I agree that is interesting and would be good to investigate further :)
@exploitwebtech1655 Says:
Ugly teachers are always good at explaining things😆
@bukalex1 Says:
shouldn't this have been Android TV OS?
@0Br_is_a_woman Says:
It has more gigglebits of ram than the rpi! Im gonna use this instead of the rpi zero 2 w.
@yuraretz2379 Says:
Am i the only one thinking these SBCs should have SSD m.2 connector in addition to the sdcard connector? SDCARDs are way too slow as of 2024 for running an OS
@jamesdecross1035 Says:
I'm curious. What are the pitfalls these of clone-boards? Will they always load an open-source operating system or other software?
@frixux Says:
Just used what is suitable to you . Learn assembler used barebone hardware . Those micropcs are allway problematics with. Software programs

The intro song makes me ill. lol

My hdmi cable is 3 times the price of this board
@user-zw8xc3hu4y Says:
Hello, can you provide a video introducing the new Orange Pi AI Pro?
@EricCorsi Says:
Would have loved to have seen sysbench run.
@litebkt Says:
Thanks, Chris!
@ScottPlude Says:
I'm ashamed to admit I am the most impressed by the end: the neat and clean soldering of the blinky LED.
@another3997 Says:
Why do so many companies release unfinished products on to the market? They must know it hurts their reputations and subsequent sales. The hardware is no good without a fully usable OS, so having their own "Orange Pi OS" distribution fall flat on it's face on this hardware, simply beggars belief. Logically, that's the OS people will install. 🙄
@Clancydaenlightened Says:
Orange pi usually seems to offer better hardware compared to rasp pi i think they even launched 64bit before rasp pi
Thats what using off the shelf mediatek and allwinner soc with 4-8gb of ram
You can run android on that 2w, just add ips and and touch, 4g lte and wifi
And its an android phone
Or use whatever os with a phone dialer
Just slap an fpga or asic via gpio to get a camera, gps, and accelerometers and gyros, and nand flash
@cjlowe1650 Says:
Hard to believe their own os doesn't work well! Lol. Did you test and Pi OS versions? Would love to see video of that. Thanks for this video. I have 2 1g and 2 4g versions of the Pi 0 2w. Just gave up when their own os wouldn't load.
@timhoover1416 Says:
OK, I have been trying every version (2 GB version) of OS for this thing from the website. I have even tried the Raspi one at the bottom of the page. I can't seem to get to a login screen. I never "boots" up or is usable. It will start with the image in a ~2 GB partition. After starting the device it will modify the file system to use the whole disk, so I know it is doing something. But I just can't ever get to a point to use it. I can get to the SPI flash and have that up on the screen and even type on the USB keyboard through a USB-C hub. I get nothing from any of the OS's. Did you have trouble and how did you solve it Chris?
@PaulGrayUK Says:
1 million viewers mark is coming up fast. plans?
@RajivDeo Says:
I am unable to run official Ubuntu image on my orange pi zero 2w 4gb. The sbc displays some error message with no image in sd card and blank screen with properly created image and 5v 2a power supply. Any help in making this board boot?
@user-bf5vn8so5k Says:
Christopher you are doing a great work in teaching the masses about computer science! I hope you get 10 million subscribers soon!
@renobodyrenobody Says:
The Orange PI Zero 2 you bought many years ago has been replaced by the Orange Pi Zero 3. More interesting than the Zero 2W.

In € 47 ... Der Michel hats 🤣👍 Germans must pay for the rest if the world 🤣
@TheMrkekec Says:
excellent review, only missing thing is video playback on android operating system.
One other thing, this board support CEC over HDMI?
@user-ye4qs4ps2u Says:
There is an expansion board that adds Ethernet and USB 2.0 to the orange pi 2w via FPC cable
@baths4carsraspberrypicomputer Says:

@larsandersson8723 Says:
Would have been nice to see more useful things this board is meant for, using it as a desktop is not a viable use case.
Network throughoutput IO tests, WiFi speed/latency etc etc.. 😕🧐🧐🤓

Authentic Arch linux experience. The OS breaks when you open a file manager 💀
@BoghyFL Says:
I've been playing with these boards for few weeks. Be aware these boards are hit and miss. They have a batch on the market that the board overheats and just dies on you with default settings. If you have a board like that, and you ran out of the return window, your only option left to make it stable is to add an active cooling fan.
@destroyer2973 Says:
They should have used an all winner r818 or r827.
@leetucker9938 Says:
well done Mr Scissor . another great video
@chriholt Says:
Clever little SBC, I especially like the expansion board concept. Surprising that the native OS is so poorly implemented.
