marceponcef Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 Hi. I want to get an Orange Pi Plus 2 or 2E to do tests. Does anyone sell any board of these models? I'm from Spain. Thanks.
olivluca Posted November 3, 2017 Posted November 3, 2017 You can buy from aliexpress, shipments to Spain lately are reasonably fast (2/3 weeks)
marceponcef Posted November 4, 2017 Author Posted November 4, 2017 Yes, I'm asking if someone sells it because this model it isn't avaliable in Aliexpress, it is out of stock. I have heard that they will be on stock soon.
t-minik Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 Hi Xulong answered me they were in re-apro. Probably available soon
martinayotte Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 Unfortunately, they are saying that since months... I don't know which parts are in shortage.

There are no other unique parts for these boards AFAIK, and for example OPI Win still doesn't have an option to buy it with a presoldered eMMC.
martinayotte Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 Yes, that is what I presumed ... But if they felt that shortage would last too long, they should have choose a substitute and tweak PCB accordingly.

One 'solution' might be to downgrade the eMMC as they did on OPi Plus 2 already: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/5333-orangepi-2-plus-storage-performance-query/?do=findComment&comment=40786 -- I hope that does not happen...
zador.blood.stained Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 And for new boards in the future a better solution would be adding a eMMC connector compatible with Hardkernel and Pine boards. 2
