Leveraging the powerful H618 chip, the Orange Pi Zero 3 is a game-changer for DIY projects.
Products like the Orange Pi Zero 3 have successfully demonstrated their potential to the community. However, the potential of the H618 is far from being fully explored.
Now, with our TP-A1 H618 SBC- A single-board computer designed to redefine the H618 standard, you can have more options and can do more on the board- we have added more functions to make it applicable to professional developers and industrial applications on the basis of retaining the core advantages of H618 that the general public expects.

Let’s take a look at the comparison table of the two products

Differences
Storage System:TF Expansion to eMMC Storage
Say goodbye to the bottleneck of MicroSD cards. The TP-A1 h618 SBC has onboard eMMC storage, providing faster system response speed.
Enclosure: Metal enclosure -Sustained Performance
The integrated metal housing and carefully designed heat conduction path ensure that the H618 chip remains cool even under high load, eliminating performance degradation.
Expansion: More Interfaces
USB-HOST Type-A port*3; USB-OTG*1,expands connectivity by connecting various external devices to your single-board computer
Smooth video experience
HDMI 2.0 Provides a smooth 4K@60Hz experience.
Application
l With eMMC, it is easy to build a stable and efficient Home Assistant
l HDMI 2.0a support makes the TP-A1 h618 a good choice for a Kodi or Plex media center
In conclusion, Our TP-A1 h618 single-board computer is a good Orange Pi Zero 3 Alternative, also the perfect companion to make Orange Pi more powerful and easier to use.
