For a little bit more than a fully fledged Orange/Radxa (and considerably under the price of a 16GB RasPi) you can buy e.g. the Morefine M6 - the size of an iPhone, works off of 12V USB-PD, 3-4W idle, 8-10W under heavy load, and with the newer N200 CPU you even get video codec goodies (perfect for e.g. running 3-4 fully local CCTV cameras with local face/object detection, which the Pi would struggle with).

I was going to complain that the orangepi wasn't $350+, but didn't realize the fully maxed 6 is that much. That's crazy how much single board computers have gotten.

350+? I'm seeing the M6 listed for £160-200!
