Hi all.
Here my review of the Mekotronics R58-Mini and R58X-4G.
These are my favorite RK3588 devices. Easiest to work with on a desk. Been my main-desktop for the last months.
I've been using MonkaBlyat his Armbian images.
It is stable, fun to work with, has GPU drivers and VPU. But it is using the dirty rockchip kernel.

So once armbian can be build for these devices, and mainline has matured these should be the best RK3588 devices for me at home. For on the road I've got the Kadas Edge2Pro.
Here's my video.

Hi Nico if would be great to have official Linux support, thanks for the video and the links. Is it really stable? I downloaded Monka version of Armbian but have had not enough time to install. According to Geekbench the Rk3588 is about twice as fast as a fast nuc. It's really an interesting board.
