“For starters, lets' say I'm a big fan of Raspberry Pi products, meaning my review is probably biased.
For 4-core tinkerer computer that has great userbase and community behind it, this machine is a steal. If Pi Zero W was neat computer for small projects, then Zero W2 is even better. But dont expect any power savings with this one. More cores = more heat and power draw also.
I have played around with alternatives also, like orangepi, but software and community support is what makes difference on behalf of Raspberry devices.”
