The LattePanda Delta 432 - Ultimate Windows / Linux Mini PC (Unactivated)

As many of you Makers, Coders and Development Board enthusiasts will already know, the series of LattePanda Boards are certainly nothing to scoff at, and they bring an exceptional level of computing and DIY power to the table. However, as many of you may have noticed, LattePanda Boards typically focus on either high functionality for a low cost, or exceptional functional for a price.

However, with the latest batch of iterations and upgrades, LattePanda have brought in the new LattePanda Delta 432, which is designed to be a blend between all of the best features, offering way-above-average functionality, but without dramatically increasing the cost. This beautiful culmination of great end-user features has made the LattePanda Delta one of the most popular boards in the range, and has opened up  many more opportunities for Makers to get involved with LattePanda, but without breaking the bank – and while still getting more than enough computing power to handle an impressively diverse range of tasks.

What's New with The LattePanda Delta?

When comparing the LattePanda Delta 432 to other boards within the LattePanda range, it’s easy to see that this board is designed to meet the hobbyist budget, while still catering to all of the functionality that a Maker would need. And with this in mind, the key features of the The LattePanda Delta 432 are as follows:

• The Intel Celeron N4100 Processor, which is relatively new to the CPU industry but has been designed for lower budgets than many of the alternatives on the market.
• 32GB of eMMC V5.01 memory, which is only half of the memory of the LattePanda Alpha boards, but includes the awesome M.2 M Key and the M.2 E Key for external memory options like NVMe and PCIe SSD.
• WiFi capabilities that match the LattePanda Alpha, with support for both 2.4G and 5G.
• The fantastic modern USB Type-C interface, which can of course support Power Delivery, USB 3.0 and high-quality Video Display Capabilities.
• Support for dual displays simultaneously, which is one less than the AlphaPanda, but double the number of displays of the original LattePanda.
• Onboard Active Cooling with a built-in fan and heatsink solution, which allows the DeltaPanda to reach its peak performance levels without running into throttling or similar issues.

Of course, we could go on for days about the slight nuances and differences between the various LattePanda Boards, but if you’re looking for more insights, be sure to check out the LattePanda Delta Getting Started Page, where they share a wealth of information pertaining the performance, use cases and other awesome details of the fantastic “DeltaPanda”.

Please Note: This is the same version as the other LattePanda Delta 432 (Win10 Activated) that we stock, but does not include a licensed version of Windows 10. However, the Unactivated version of Windows is free to use as long as you don’t care for personalisation like wallpapers, so this shouldn’t be a problem unless you plan on turning this little beast into a gaming rig or professional workstation.
