I think the setup looks super cute. Unfortunately I have no use for it.
Super confused by some of their decisions lately.
Spending money and effort on the SD cards was a real win.
Delving deeper into the smaller form factor and less powerful versions…don’t get it.
Now a portable monitor? Kinda confused.
Right now they are fighting against the ESP community, RockChip overtaking their dominance, and BPi being a better price point. I’d rather they just make more production runs with extra features or hats that aren’t…a monitor you can get from better manufacturers cheaper.
ASUS has a fantastic portable gaming monitor with 144hz at a similar price point. I’d buy that over this.
Im not 100% sure about the monitor especially since you have to get another power adapter for 15$, but the 500 looks neat.
I believe you can run the monitor at 60% brightness and reduced volume on it’s speakers when powering it from the 500… the separate power supply just allows you to put both of those things to max.
Dont get me wrong, im happy it exists, but i feel like getting a 70-80$ monitor that is 20+ inches at is better than their offering. It will even come with a power cord.
yeah the price is too much. something like $40 would be great
Ohhh I wonder if this can work as a 4k 10bit uhd Plex/jellyfin client?
I have a Pi400 that I used as a 4K UHD Kodi client. It worked great. The only thing it lacked was Doing Vision and HDR10+ support. Normal HDR10 was fine.
Now I just use the Jellyfin app for my TV (LG), which also support DV.
Client, potentially. Sadly definitely not a server since the removed hardware encoding
Yes I was looking as a client to replace the “smart” TV app that is increasingly becoming bloatware with something I can control. Just kinda need a “self hosted” client that can support 70mbps 10bit hdr streams or there about.
Too late, bought a mini pc instead and loaded Linux.
So think the screen got potential for steam deck use?
I have a similar one from Amazon, one of the Chinese brands that are named by rolling your face on the keyboard.
I can connect it via usb-c to my laptop, deck or Switch. The laptop doesn’t need extra power. The others can be powered through the display.
Better resolution, HDR and decent speakers.
