In terms of specifications all I can find is that this has a 2.0GHz 8-core RV64 processor with Vector. That's not a lot of info.

Does anybody know anything more about it? Performance level, battery life, etc. I expect this is really a phone or SBC level processor, so it should sip power, right?

Do not expect this thing to be a daily driver. It's aimed at developers who need a Risc-V testing platform. Very few Software will run on it unless you can spend hours making it compile for Risk-V and lets not talk about drivers. Also it will likely cost over $1000.

I am exited for the future of Risc-V in the consumer space, but we aren't there yet.
