Still a fantastic SBC with reliable design and good quality components. But the massive changes done to the 4th iteration of the RPi means that compatibility will be an issue to some. The change from a single full-size HDMI to dual micro HDMI is a bit annoying. They swapped the order of the USB and ETH ports. Both these mean that it will no longer fit RPi2/3 cases. USB-C power port is a welcome change though. The biggest issue for me is the HW component changes that means that stuff such as OSMC and other distributions that have worked without any issues on previous RPi iterations, will no longer work. Until those managing thosee distributions catch up with the changes (and as OSMC have their own bespoke hardware to push, they are in no hurry to get OSMC RPi4 compatible ;)

Big improvement of the pi 3b+. The hdmi came as a surprise being the micro version, not sure why as it's obvious in pictures of it lol. Great for retro gaming..
