Orange Pi Previews Compact SBC with Eight-Core Allwinner A733 SoC

Oct 19, 2025 — by Giorgio Mendoza 1,489 views

Orange Pi has unveiled the Orange Pi 4 Pro, a compact single-board computer designed for high-performance edge applications. It integrates an octa-core Allwinner A733 processor, a 3 TOPS NPU, and supports up to 16 GB of LPDDR5 memory, combining AI acceleration with a wide range of expansion interfaces.

This SBC features the same SoC found in the Radxa Cubie A7Z i and Cubie A7A introduced earlier this year. The processor combines two Arm Cortex-A76 cores and six Cortex-A55 cores clocked at up to 2.0 GHz, paired with an Imagination BXM-4-64 GPU and a RISC-V E902 co-processor for auxiliary control.
