    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 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.
