guidol Posted December 20, 2018 Posted December 20, 2018 Because today I did get my Black-Friday NanoPi Neo2 LTS 1GB I swapped my old Neo2 against this new 1Gb LTS-version. After assembling the new LTS to the fresh heatsink I did a testdrive and all went fine (network etc). So I did try to put the faceplate back on the case but it doenst fit. At the time when I did buy the case there was also a faceplate for the normal H3 Neo delivered. So for the new LTS Neo2 I had to use the faceplate for the H3-Neo, because the new LTS Neo2 has the USB-Port aligned like the H3-Neo . The old Neo2 has his USB-Port (on the main Neo2-PCB) a bit shifted against the Network-port. Also the new LTS Neo2 has the Ethernet LEDs upside down against the old Neo2 AND the MicroSD-Slot is now click-inserted (which the old Neo2 didnt had). At the attached picture you could the the old Neo2 (IP22) with the shifted USB-Port in the NAS-case (like the old Neo2 in the black Aluminium case - but PCB upside-down) and the new LTS Neo2 (IP23) in the NAS-case with the aligned USB-Port beside the Ethernet-Port.

Yeah - they changed the connector from SMT to pins/staked on the 1.1 board which changes the mechanical stack dimensions... along with the migrating UART/Audio pinout locations... NEO v1.3 and NEO2 v.1.1 (and perhaps LTS) should be pretty close...
