KHADAS VIM PRO ON FLASH SALE + FREE REMOTE CONTROL!
If you like Open Source and projects like the Raspberry Pi, then you have to give a look also on the Khadas Vim Pro which is currently on a flash sale for $51.99 / €46.27 / £41.37 and with a free Khadas Vim remote control included! If you have no idea what I am talking about, you may ask “what he means free remote control?”. And that is a good question if you are unfamiliar with it. The Khadas Vim, similar to the Raspberry Pi is an open source tv box that supports Android 6.0, Ubuntu, OpenElec / LibreElec, Buidroot, etc and you can set it up however you like. The difference with the Pi is mainly the a lot better SoC and the whole device is a lot more powerful. The image below sums it up pretty well:
The acrylic see-through case comes with the device, unlike the Pi, as it comes the Type C USB cable which is more than enough to power the Khadas Vim. The Pro version is powered by the S905X 64bit CPU by Amlogic, a Penta-core Mali 450 GPU, 2GB of RAM and 16GB eMMC flash. The audio – video output is a HDMI 2.0a for up to 4K @ 60 Hz, a Fast Ethernet port, Dual Band 802.11 b/g/n WiFi and Bluetooth 4.2 (Ampak AP6255) with IPEX connector. Also 2x USB 2.0 host ports with 500mA fuses, 1x USB type C port for power and USB devices and a 40-pin Raspberry Pi compatible header with USB, UART, I2C, ADC, PWM, JTAG, I2S, and GPIOs.
Also the Khadas Vim Pro comes with a dual, Blue & red LED, a dual channel IR receiver, power / function / reset buttons and a header for RTC battery. The power supply demand is 5V through the USB type C. The community around the Khadas devices is also great with excellent support and great projects that you can easily follow.
