Interfaces and ports
The PCIe interface offers excellent expansion options. There’s an eMMC module slot available, though unfortunately, UFS modules aren’t supported. The GPIO header pins are color-coded, staying true to the design approach of Orange Pi’s most recent boards.
Price and Availability
Available in 4GB, 6GB, 8GB, and 12GB RAM configurations, expandable up to 16GB, the new 4 Pro board is more budget-friendly and then the previous Orange Pi 4A board. Starting at just $35 for the 4GB RAM model (excluding duty and shipping), prices go up with higher memory options. Overall, this board offers great value for the buck, especially considering it features DDR5 RAM, built-in Wi-Fi 6, and various interfaces, including an M.2 NVMe SSD slot.

Thanks, do you know when the borad is going to be relesed?
No idea, but I believe it’s a matter of weeks. If they’ve already shared official news about it, it might take 1-2 weeks.
The initial batch of samples was released today.
