A real upgrade in processing power thanks to the significantly improved I/O and memory performance. Much faster than my (admittedly old) WD NAS that it’s replacing. Do think seriously about what software you need to run before buying though. I went for the 4GB version but it was definitely overkill. Even with 512MB for the GPU, the combination of OpenMediaVault and Kodi still leaves me with 3000 MB+ free. A 2GB Pi 4 would have been fine for me, as would a 320 or 384 MB GPU split. If you are planning to run headless then the 1GB version may be a good option too, I’d only suggest 4GB if you are planning to run it as a proper desktop PC.

Bought this to be a NAS Media server. Works without any issues, for a remarkably low cost.

I bought this model, raspberry-pi 4, and I received Raspberry-pi 3. I'm waiting for the correct item and I don't know if I'll receive before Christmas.

Looking at Youtube some said "is this a replacement desktop?". My answer is yes. It is. Been using it as a desktop for a while and have had no problems with it, ran multiple tabs open which would cause a standstill in Pi3B. The 4GB version I have has no faults and with it being a silent SBC has made my small area less noise. Well worth playing around with for a desktop PC.

I ordered 2 Raspberry Pi 4 from apparent an authorised seller of Raspberry products. The first shipment was not only uncompleted - only one Raspberry Pi - what's more, it was the model Pi 3. I reached customer service, asking for an exchange, the fast one, since I needed to send it as a present to my family abroad. I was understanding, since it was Black Friday/Cyber Monday period. I took nearly a week to receive a new delivery. And again, this time I received a good model, but only one Raspberry Pi. This time an explanation was, that it ran out of the stock. I ended up with only one Raspberry Pi and late with sending it as a present to my family. Great disappointment.

Good stuff very powerful. One full size HDMI would be great though.
