ODROID-C4 is the faster and more efficient version of ODROID-C2. The previous version of ODROID-C4 was the first low-price ARM-based microcontroller. However, the ODROID-C4 features a Quad-Core Cortex-A55 cluster capable of running at up to 2.0 GHz. It further comes with Mali-G31 New Generation Graphics Processing Unit. The stock heat sink in the ODROID-C4 protects the thermal throttling by allowing the processor to operate at full speed. The CPUs of ODROID-C4 also scores well in its speed by 40% as compared to its older version - ODROID-C2. In line with that, the latest version has faster RAM i.e. 50% in comparison with ODROID-C2.
