¶ BPI-M2 Plus Introduction
Banana PI BPI-M2+ is the open source hardware platform, use Alliwnner H3 (option H2+ chip and H5 chip ) chip on board. and mini size only 65mm*65mm,
PBI-M2+ hardware: 1Ghz ARM7 quad-core processor, 1GB DDR3 SDRAM, 8G eMMC flash on board,and SDIO wifi&BT 4.0 module on board.1 Gigabit ethrnet.
BPI-M2+ series run Android,Debian linux,Ubuntu linux, Raspberry Pi image and others image. Banana PI,it can easily run with the game it support 1080P high definition video output and 4K support, the GPIO compatible with Raspberry Pi B+.
| Banana Pi BPI-M2+ not support sata port, so you need use USB for hardisk. |
