Note !

Neither my Video or this Instructables is a Paid Promotion or Endorsement for the board

If you are bored to read all the stuff You can watch my video Click Here

Up board is powered by Inter Atom X5-z8350 which is a 64 bit CPU it sounds like age old processor but a computer board like this one, it is power efficient as well as powerful then Raspberry Pi

UP board has option for you

1 GB

2 GB

4 GB DDR3 memory

whereas Raspberry pi has 1 GB DDR2 Memory

EMMC:

Unlike other boards UP board comes with EMMC storage which is onboard storage so you don't need to spend extra money on SD cards

PSU:

power supply which you can get from their website is rated at 5V 4A and most importantly it is totally modular no no matter where you live you don't need to buy adapter

WiFi & BT

but also board does not have onboard WiFi and Bluetooth which can be added via adapters

Physically both the board are almost similar such as Ethernet port USB ports and HDMI are located as same places but there are few different ports on Up board such as DSI and CSI

Do I like The similar design?

Yes because people who love to keep their board in case wont have issue to find one !

Here are few benchmarks available on Openbenchmarking.org

so you can compare it with different boards and decide which one to buy.
