ODROID-N2 SUPPORT
For the last few months the CoreELEC developers have been collaborating with the Hardkernel team on adding support for the one of the newest SBC’s to the market, the ODROID-N2. The ODROID-N2 is the successor to the hugely popular ODROID-C2, the N2 has a completely new and much faster Amlogic S922X SoC, has faster DDR4 memory and comes with USB 3.0, the N2 is more than just a minor upgrade to the previous C2 but is in a whole new class of it’s own that is sure to please anyone who wants the very best hardware for their Kodi experience, for more information on the N2 click here.
