Raspberry Pi 5: available now! We’ve been excited to see the response of early users to Raspberry Pi 5, and can’t wait to see what you do once you get your hands on it.
They work pretty well. The upside is they are always available. The downside is less support for software like the pi foundation has invested into. But they do a great job as a Linux board and if you use a well supported distro, you should be fine.
At one point, we had to do a project with 40ish of these things. Worked out well and we couldn’t get a pi, because since 2019 they are basically impossible to order in number.
It’s an Armbian distro. Down side is you can’t install Pi images for specific things, you need to build them manually, but other than that no real issues. Also you can run Android (that was trickier to setup as it needs a windows only tool to flash it to the SD card.

What windows-only tool are you referring to?
Phoenix card from their official tools. It’s apparently the only flasher that can properly flash android to TF card.
