The BPI-M4 Berry development board stands as a powerful Single Board Computer (SBC), harnessing the capabilities of the Allwinner H618 System-on-Chip (SoC) to provide developers with impressive performance and a wealth of features. Similar to the Raspberry Pi 4b, the BPI-M4 Berry boasts comparable CPU prowess, LPDDR4 memory support, integrated WiFi and Bluetooth functionalities, and a familiar 40-pin header layout, alongside 4 USB interfaces and a GbE RJ45 port.  
+
Banana Pi BPI-M4 Zero is the successor model of M2 Zero. It has a huge improvement in performance. The SOC is upgraded to H618 and the CPU frequency is increased by 25%. The memory is upgraded to DDR4, the capacity is quadrupled, and 8G eMMC is added. It supports 5G WiFi, and the USB interface has also been upgraded to type-C.
  
−
Characterized by its robust performance, versatile features, and remarkable image processing capabilities, stands as an exemplary SBC development platform for professionals within the embedded and computing industries. Equipped with 8GB eMMC flash storage, high-performance decoding and encoding capabilities, and an array of interface options, it caters to a wide spectrum of application domains, including media processing, IoT, and entertainment. Whether catering to novices or seasoned developers, the BPI-M4 Berry development board offers an ideal toolset for realizing creative visions and project objectives.
+
It has same form factor and 40-pin connector as the Raspberry Pi Zero W, and it can fit most of the RPI Zero W cases and accessories.
