Apparently the Radxa x Qualcomm announcements are still not done since a Reddit user discovered the: Radxa rCore-Q8750
▶️ 8x Oryon Gen2 cores
▶️ Adreno 830 GPU
▶️ 77 TOPS Hexagon NPU

@TrakUnixbased I think that’s just the issue with DDR memory on full display. They have recently added support for another ram manufacturer called Hive Semi to their RK3588 lineup and my best guess is that B2B customers get access to these boards then regular customers
The Radxa Q8E is something I hadn’t had on my radar at all. It features the Qualcomm QCS6690 which is basically a rebranded Snapdragon 7s Gen3 (SM7635).
▶️ Octa-Core (4x A720, 4x A520) CPU
▶️ 7th Gen Adreno 710 GPU
(giving us Vulkan 1.4 with Mesa Freedreno)
▶️ 4nm lithography
Two new @RadxaComputer boards will be released on the 30th during their next event with @Qualcomm
▶️ Radxa Q8B with Snapdragon 8cx gen3
▶️ Radxa Q5E with QCS6690
The Radxa Q8B features the prominent SoC that has been powering the first wave of Windows on Snapdragon Laptops and comes with great upstream Linux support in a form factor that resembles the Rock5B+ which is imo the best compromise between size and I/O capabilities
@sahajsarup@arduino@Qualcomm_Dev Yes I do but I'm also confident that the responsible people I talked to at EW26 have actually understood what the open source future for Qualcomm looks like and how to learn from prior mistakes. All these FOSS acquihires are going in the right direction
I had the opportunity to see and test @arduino's new Ventuno Q board at Embedded World 2026 in Nuremberg. In the article you will find benchmarks, specs and all questions answered including @Qualcomm_Dev mainline Linux support status

@sahajsarup@arduino@Qualcomm_Dev I can only speak for QCS6490 right now because that is where I have it confirmed working on KVM mode. I can try it on IQ9 according to this doc too https://t.co/aVXP4vOZrj so it should be the same for IQ8
@sahajsarup@arduino@Qualcomm_Dev EL2 boot is available. Thankfully they made this work for all Dragonwing from what I'm able to tell https://t.co/bBqmArCRrj
