Flipper One wants to be the Linux multi-tool in your pocket

  • On Thursday, Flipper Devices announced the Flipper One, a Linux-based networking platform for hardware experimentation that differs fundamentally from its signal-hacking Flipper Zero device.
  • Flipper Devices CEO Pavel Zhovner described the device as a 'network multitool' designed to address usability issues in DIY computers through a dual-processor architecture that independently manages system controls.
  • Hardware-Wise, the device features a Rockchip RK3576 SoC, 8 GB of RAM, and 64 GB of internal storage, paired with Wi-Fi 6E, dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, and an M.2 interface for modular expansion.
  • Flipper Devices partnered with Collabora to push support into the mainline Linux kernel while aiming for a price under $350 for the base configuration, keeping development open to community input.
  • The team faces hurdles achieving full mainline Linux support for the RK3576 processor; Zhovner noted significant technical and financial risks, including the RAM chip crisis, before the planned summer Kickstarter launch.
