youyeetooBanana pi M2 Zero Open Source Singal Board Computer, 512MB SDRAM Mini HDMI onboard WiFi (AP6212) & Bluetooth, Support Raspbian Android Armbian RetroPie Ubuntu

It looks in every way like a Pi Zero W. All the ports are in the same places and look identical (except that Banana Pi adds a Wi-Fi antenna port and two buttons). And it even advertises a "CSI camera port". So you might be naively assuming that it will work with Pi camera modules. Except ... nope. It is a 24-pin, 0.5 mm spacing interface with 8 data lines, unlike the CSI camera port on a Pi Zero, which is a 22-pin, 0.5 mm spacing interface with 4 data lines. I'm not even sure if it should properly be called "CSI", because the pinout looks nothing like the pinout of Pi Zero, and it is almost identical to pinouts of 24-pin DVP camera ports found on many other Pi clones (OrangePi, NanoPi, etc.)Because of the nonstandard interface, it will only work with cameras specifically designed for this board, of which there seems to be only one (based on the same crappy 1/4" OV5640 sensor that everyone else uses).

This thing is complete rubbish.The os/firmware (linux) hasn't be actively developed since 2020 - you know you are in trouble when even linux won't support your hardware!The mouse / keyboard frequently time out forcing a reboot to be able to interact with the board.The serial (UART) and spi interfaces do not work properly(more accurately do not work period)Basically it boots and that is it. Don't expect it to do anything else.Total waste of money!If I hadn't soldered pin headers on the thing I would have returned it...

ON TOP OF THE FACT THAT IT'S NOT EVEN AUTHENTIC HARDWARE THAT REACHES PROPOSED SPEED. FILING CHARGES.

This is the second time ordering this product again not because the first one didnt work but because i liked it so much i wanted another.
