minus-squareManzas@lemdro.idlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·20 days agoThat is due to power reasons ,but they could have just underclocked it by default.
minus-squareAdanisi@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10·20 days agoI don’t buy it. USBC can deliver quite a lot of power
minus-squareManzas@lemdro.idlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·19 days agoWait is it locked to the official charger?
minus-squareDacoTaco@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·19 days agoI agree. Pi5 apparently uses 5v@5A max, which is outside the usbc-pd specs. Not sure why they didnt go for usbc-9v in and use onboard components to convert the power to something lower for cpu ( which i assume it already does from 5v )
minus-squareDacoTaco@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·20 days agoWhat is the power reason if i may ask?
minus-squareManzas@lemdro.idlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·19 days agoI dunno maybe cpu? Really it is actually stupid why didn’t they just make it optional.
