Complete tablet kit for NanoPC-T3 Plus?

[david_padge]

The NanoPC-T3 Plus seems to be a very modern powerful single board computer that can run Android or other operating systems, plus it has connectors that are useful for many experimental or day to day purposes, so I would like to make a 7 inch or even a 10 inch tablet out of it, but I do not want to buy parts that might not fit. Is there a list somewhere of parts for a tablet kit for this upper end model?

Thank you!

You'd be better of with a NanoPi M4 or T4 or NEO4 than a T3+ for that.
The T3+ isn't very good for desktop use(tablet use). The SoC is a lot less supported than the RK3399's.
With the T3+ you can't watch video in 1080p or higher. It is rather slow for single core tasks. (many tasks are single core)

It is great as server, and for multi-core heavy duty tasks/mining/blender farm. The T3+ is faster than the RK3399's in most multicore tasks, while it has a lower energy consumption.

So the T3+ is very useful, but only for the right tasks.

The T4/M4/NEO4 have got VPU support for 4k video.

The people from FriendlyElec sell touchscreen displays that are supported.

Read the wiki for the product to see which boards it supports.

The M4/NEO4 do have a big and heavy heatsink. Maybe you could make/but a flatter bigger heatsink for it so it doesn't stick out so much.

Most HDMI displays work on the T3+/M4/T4/NEO4. I've got a 7" hdmi display that works fine.
I hope that helps, greetings.
