Banana Pi BPI-M1+ – Dual-Core Single Board Computer, Wi-Fi

Banana Pi is an open source hardware platform. The Banana Pi model BPI-M1+ has a dual-core processor and runs Android, Debian Linux, Ubuntu Linux, as well as the Raspberry Pi and cubieboard image.

The boards hardware include: 1 GHz ARM7 dual-core processor, 1 GB DDR3 SDRAM, SDIO Wi-Fi module on board, 1x Gigabit Ethernet port and 1x SATA Socket. It can run smoothly with Android 4.2.2. The size of the board is about the size of a credit card.

It can easily run games as it supports 1080P high definition video output. The GPIO is compatible with Raspberry Pi and can run Raspbian image directly.
