Phoronix: 8-Way ARM Board Linux Benchmark Comparison From The Pi Zero & ODROID To Tegra

For those interested in small, low-power ARM single-board computers, up for your viewing pleasure today are benchmarks of several different boards from the Raspberry Pi Zero to the Banana Pi M2.

I have two ODROID C1 one of them being a C1+. If you take into account that they offer real Gigabit Ethernet, Android, eMMC support (if SD Cards are too slow for you) I think they offer the best value for money. It also supports more video codecs than the RPi. I only wish it could boot a stock upstream kernel with open source Mali GPU driver and full GPU acceleration.

There are some people working on supporting more recent kernels.

Odroid C1 used to cost $35 (currently C1+ is 37$) so where did you get the $45 number from?

The prices told to me by LoverPi representative.

When you talk about ARM boards, energy consumption is usually relevant, too. Would the RPiZero perform so well when you look at the performance/Dollar/Watt?

[Shimon]

In that case where did you get the $37 number from in the opening paragraph? Oh, and good luck getting a Zero for $5.

My Odroid randomly seg-faulted when launching apt-get even with heatsinks and no overclocking. I eventually threw it away and replaced it with a Raspberry Pi B 2 that has been rock solid. I wonder if Odroid cut one too many corners to achieve price parity with the R-Pi?

Which of these boards are closest to upstream kernel support?
Some of these boards run a really old kernel and I wouldn't hold my breath for an update (written on a Nvidia Tegra 3 based tablet...)

To Shimon:

Obviously LoverPi told michael the average price. Not the lowest price.

ODROID C1+, Banana Pi M2, and Orange Pi Plus support gigabit ethernet and android. Orange Pi Plus has 8GB onboard eMMC. eMMC for ODROID C1+ are pretty expensive still.

Add in shipping, duty, labeling and packaging costs.

There's a lot of vendors making great things.
