Came across this RPi 3 clone and for $35 for "pro" version after coupon, I couldn't say no. I was expecting to run into issues at every turn with this board, my plan was for it to be an emulator console to play old-school games, but for the price i figured it was worth some headache to get it set up and running. Wow was I wrong... Batocera has an image specifically for the Le Potato. I downloaded that image, wrote it to my microSD with BalenaEtcher, popped it into the Le Potato and everything booted right up. I have an old Steam Controller that I used to test with, plugged it in, everything just worked... Le Potato found the WiFi dongle and I got it connected to my network, SSHed to it and transferred my ROM files to it, and just started playing games. I was amazed that every part of this project worked without any kind of issues or troubleshooting needed start to finish. LibreComputer knocked it out of the park with this thing, I know it's technically "last gen" tech, but at least it is priced right and still runs plenty of stuff. I will be definitely be buying more of these little guys (I have plans for a Kali install and maybe as a replacement board for my 3D Printer). Great job Libre! Review: Inexpensive and effective for headless machines - I feel like this is fulfilling the promise of Raspberry Pi where it fell short. I've been the owner and operator of multiple Pi's since 2011, but their supply chain issues or whatever meant I could not practically continue to use them -- I wasn't going to pay the absurd prices demanded for the few available. I also didn't like the higher power consumption and heat of the latest Pi 4. For my purposes, if I was going to use power and make enough heat to run fans, I could use server hardware retired from the datacenter that would be far more powerful than a Pi 4 and cost me less to purchase. But I wanted the low power and price that these Le Potatoes deliver. I found the images on Libre's website or linked from it were problematic. I tried Raspberry, Debian, Android, Ubuntu, and Armbian. I had a lot of trouble with the first three. I didn't want to build my own, so I tried the second two. The Ubuntu image worked fine, but was a little heavy. I did evaluate these as desktop alternatives -- they struggle against Wirth's Law. As such, they're unsuitable for web browsing or Youtube. They'll do it, but it's just too slow. I am using them in a coding class as educational machines running VS Code and Python. They work great for that. I also use them for mini servers. For these, I'm using an Armbian image that seems to work very well indeed. I've used them for Wordpress, but presently, I've ditched CMS and am doing all static pages. I'm using Apache and it works fine. I'll switch to nginx at some point and then these Potatoes will be brilliant. I also run them for BIND, Postfix, Dovecot, and all the associated things like DKIM, DMARC, SASL, SPF, etc. I wish the eMMC was more practical. I looked into it and it's expensive and it is reported to be difficult by many reviewers. I have various low-capacity SD cards on-hand, but even if I needed to buy them, 32GB are about $6, whereas the eMMC of the same size are presently listed at $20 each. ## Features - AML-S905X-CC WITH HEATSINK AND WIFI: Le Potato is a powerful SBC platform capable of handling many computing tasks while consuming less than a watt. This bundle adds a bespoke heatsink and plug and play WiFi dongle for getting the most from your board. - BESPOKE ANODIZED HEATSINK: The anodized heatsink provides a protective oxide layer that resists environmental corrosion while offering significantly better thermal performance. Dramatically increase sustained performance while increasing reliability via reduced temperature cycling. Two push pin anchors securely attach heatsink for vibration resistance. - PLUG AND PLAY USB WIFI: Get a no-hassle WiFi dongle that offers great performance and feature set including AP mode, ad-hoc mode, monitor mode, packet injection, and more. It is fully integrated into the Linux kernel and is perfect for embedded applications that require low power consumption, memory usage, and software support. - ADDITIONAL PERIPHERALS REQUIRED: MicroSD card or eMMC flashed with the correct image. Proper bootloader or image is required to have HDMI video output. The green LED will turn on once the bootloader is detected. Please use a 5V 2A or higher MicroUSB power supply. Power supplies with insufficient power will experience voltage drops that cause instability and random application crashes or boot issues. For additional assistance, please use hub.libre.computer for guides and end-user support. - PERIPHERAL COMPATIBILITY: Most USB based peripherals are directly supported. The GPIO header maintains the same layout for hardware I2C, SPI, PWM, and UART compatibility. I2S, PCM, and SDIO do not share the same pins so most audio peripherals will need to be re-routed. Le Potato features additional GPIOs and SARADC pins on separate headers. - RASPBIAN COMPATIBILITY: Software made for Raspberry Pi is not compatible out of the box. Libre Computer provides the libretech-raspbian-portability tool on GitHub to convert existing Raspbian images to standard EFI images so that they can run on Libre Computer boards. Pre-converted Raspbian images are also available. Non-standard software libraries for interfacing with hardware will need to be updated since GPIO numbering are not the same across different platforms. - SUPPORT OPEN-SOURCE: Libre Computer is a major sponsor of software contributions to upstream Linux and U-Boot including support for adopted Allwinner, Amlogic, and Rockchip SoCs. For technical support, please use hub.libre.computer. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BQG668P6 | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,695 in Single Board Computers (Computers & Accessories) | | Brand | LoveRPi | | Color | Libre Blue WiFi 4 | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (149) | | Date First Available | December 18, 2022 | | Item Weight | 2.39 ounces | | Manufacturer | Shenzhen Libre Technology Co., Ltd | | Number of Processors | 4 | | Operating System | Android 9.0 | | Package Dimensions | 4.72 x 2.99 x 1.1 inches | | Processor | 1.4 GHz | | Processor Brand | Amlogic | | RAM | DDR3 | | Series | Le Potato | | Wireless Type | 2.4 GHz Radio Frequency, 802.11bgn, Infrared | ## Product Details - **Brand:** LoveRPi - **CPU Speed:** 1.4 GHz - **Memory Storage Capacity:** 2 GB - **Model Name:** Le Potato - **Ram Memory Installed Size:** 2 GB ## Images ![Libre Computer Le Potato Mini Single Board Computer with USB WiFi 4 and Heatsink (2GB WiFi 4, Libre Blue) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71wwt5xxftL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does this have hardware acceleration for h265 and h264?

Downloading the Debian image from the official site took three hours, which was a bit disappointing. However, after flashing it to an SD card, the device booted up without any issues. I’m currently using it as a mini WireGuard VPN server on my home network, and the transfer speeds are impressive. It’s genuinely performing well. I would have rated it five stars, but the lengthy download of the official images brings it down to four stars. Despite not fully utilizing the device's potential, I believe it’s a fantastic option if you’re looking for something lightweight and easy to set up without spending too much on a Raspberry Pi. It certainly gets the job done! ## Frequently Bought Together - Libre Computer Le Potato Mini Single Board Computer with USB WiFi 4 and Heatsink (2GB WiFi 4, Libre Blue) - CanaKit 5V 2.5A Raspberry Pi 3 B+ Power Supply/Adapter (UL Listed) - LoveRPi Active Cooling Media Center PC Case with Fan for Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+, Libre Computer Board, ASUS Tinker Board (Black) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tw/products/507941548-libre-computer-le-potato-mini-single-board-computer-with-usb](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/507941548-libre-computer-le-potato-mini-single-board-computer-with-usb) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
