Please ignore this post if it annoys anyone, I just thought I'd throw this out there for others to reference...a "knowledge is power" kind of thing I am reaching for here. I thought I'd just put this out there for those who do not know about the differences between Orange Pi Plus, ODROID-C2 and Raspberry Pi3. Below is a quote from the link at the bottom of this post...
QUOTE:
"Another primary competitor in the space is the ODROID, from Hardkernel. The original ODROID-C1 was already a decent platform, with a few more features and more RAM than the comparable Pi at the time. The ODROID-C2 was just announced in February, and for $39 (only $5 over the Pi 3 price tag) offers a few great features over the Pi 3 like:
2GHz quad core Cortex A53 processor (Pi 3 is clocked at 1.2 GHz)
Mali-450 GPU (Pi 3 has a VideoCore IV 3D GPU)
2 GB RAM (Pi 3 has 1 GB)
Gigabit Ethernet (Pi 3 has 10/100)
4K video support (Pi 3 supports HD... drivers/support are usually better for Pi though)
eMMC slot (Pi 3 doesn't offer this option)
UHS-1 clocked microSD card slot (Pi 3 requires overclock to get this speed)
Official images for Ubuntu 16.04 MATE and Android (Pi 3 uses Raspbian, a Debian fork)"
END OF QUOTE:
As I read into it, it has major spec differences although performance is always the end result to the user. Unfortunately, like the Orange Pi, it seems to not have the level of community or documentation support the Raspberry Pi has. It's like Betamax versus VHS or Intellivision versus Atari 2600 (please no hate mail on this...or hate PM).
