Arm 3588 board - State of the art

Four times power of Rockchip 3399 chip

State of art arm board

Its competitor will be pine64 which also has announced an Arm 3588 board

Four times power of Rockchip 3399 chip
$589US

So, we multiply 589 dollars by 95 and get 55955 rubles.

Mein Gott!
Expensive! I like Rockchip processors. But really expensive. With this money, I can eat for several months

It is better to buy not Arm, but something on a J4205 processor or similar.

The price will go down.
This is all cutting edge stuff.

Good news!!
Pine64 has arranged a subsidy (probably rockchip agreed to subsidy)

Today I am happy to let you know that the QuartzPro64 will soon be available for order via our developer pre-order system. To get your hands on a unit you’ll need to fill in a short questionnaire, similar to the one PinePhone Pro developers submitted at the end of 2021. This will help us determine if you’re the right person to receive the hardware prior to software running on the new platform. Conversely, it will help keep these development boards out of the hands of end-users and application developers. More on this in a bit later. So, then, if you are a developer with an interest in the RK3588 platform, and wish to get an early start on a board that exposes nearly all of the SoC’s available IO, then please make sure to head over to the developer sign-up page to register your interest.

Now let me level with you – the BOM of the QuartzPro64 is north of $300. The price is dictated not only by the (rather pricey) SoC, RAM, and eMMC flash but also by the exhaustive list of the exposed IO. As I’ve explained in last month’s post, we didn’t want to compromise on the IO due to the assumed target audience; it is hard to debug and ultimately enable a feature if said feature isn’t physically present on the PCB. But at the same time, we do have a vested interest in a good uptake of the board among the development community. I’d go as far as to say that we hope for the QuartzPro64 to become the go-to board for RK3588 development. A decision has therefore been made to heavily subsidize QuartzPro64 so that the price of the board doesn’t prevent people who wish to be a part of the development process from getting one. After some deliberation, we decided to sell QuartzPro64 for $150 to developers who file an application. Needless to say, we hope to see many applications in the coming days.
