Banana Pi BPI-M2 Ultra - Quad-Core Single Board Computer, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Support

Banana Pi is one Open source hardware platform. The Banana Pi model BPI-M2 Ultra has a quad-core Cortex A7 CPU, an Allwinner R40 chip, and supports Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. It also has a built-in SATA interface. It runs on Android, Debian Linux, Ubuntu Linux, the Raspbian Image and other operating systems.

The board's hardware includes: Quad-Core ARM Cortex A7 CPU, 2 GB DDR3 SDRAM, 8 GB eMMC Flash integrated and 1x Gigabit Ethernet connection. It runs fine with Android 4.2.2. The Banana Pi BPI-M2 Ultra is just as small as the Banana Pi BPI-M64. The board supports 1080P videos and the GPIO header is pin compatible with Raspberry Pi.

The new BPI-M2 Ultra is a tiny computer with big ambitions. The expandable single board device runs with either Linux or Android and has impressive technical specifications that are far ahead of comparable products. Highlights include a quad-core ARMv7 processor, a Mali 400 MP2 GPU, 2 GB DDR3 RAM, a microSDXC slot, 8GB eMMC Flash, integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and the board also supports 1080P ultra HD videos.
