Neither Banana Pi nor Shenzhen SINOVOIP Co.,Ltd. have a direct relationship to the [[Raspberry Pi Foundation]], though its similarities are clear.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.techrepublic.com/pictures/raspberry-pi-five-alternative-boards-for-hackers-and-modders/5/ |title=Raspberry Pi: Five alternatives for hackers and modders |newspaper=TechRepublic |last=Heath |first=Nick |date=21 May 2014}}</ref> "Linux User & Developer" does not consider it a "direct clone, but a considerable evolution," whilst linux.com similarly sees it as a clone with improved performance.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.linuxuser.co.uk/reviews/banana-pi-review-tastier-than-raspberry |title=Banana Pi review – tastier than Raspberry? |website=Linux User & Developer |first=Gareth |last=Halfacree}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.linux.com/news/embedded-mobile/mobile-linux/771048-raspberry-pi-clones-match-the-connectors-but-boost-the-firepower |title=Raspberry Pi Clones Match the Connectors, But Boost the Firepower |first=Eric |last=Brown |newspaper=Linux News |date=24 April 2014 }}</ref> The board layout is very similar to the Raspberry Pi board, though it's about 10% larger and the relative spacing of some connectors varies. Not all Raspberry Pi accessories will fit as a result.

The Banana Pi BPI-M1 is a business card-sized and low-power single-board computer featuring a high performance AllWinner A20 dual-core SoC at 1 GHz, 1 GB of DDR3 SDRAM, Gigabit Ethernet, SATA, USB, and HDMI connections. It can run a variety of operating systems including Android, Lubuntu, Ubuntu, Debian, and Raspbian.

It is the first open source hardware launched by the banana pie team, and also a classic product with the largest cumulative sales of banana pie.There are still a lot of business clients that apply to various projects.A20 chip

Banana Pi is an open platform device, it is for anyone who wants to play and build with developer technology instead of simply using consumer technology. Backed by our community, starting a project and building servers is fun and rewarding.
