The DC-ROMA RISC-V Pad II boasts a 10.1 inch (1920×1200) IPS 10-point touch display, and is powered by the same SpacemiT K1 SoC found in their RISC-V Ubuntu laptop (which launched with a confused set of pricing tiers and availability).
That chip comprises eight 64-bit RISC-V cores running up to 2.0 GHz, plus the RVA 22 Profile and 256-bit RVV 1.0 standard to provide “powerful AI capabilities”, and an Imagine Technologies BXE-2-2 GPU, a baseline 800 MHz effort.
Memory wise, the base model offers 4GB LPDDR4 RAM. 8GB and 16GB options are available at extra cost. All versions have 64 GB eMMC, but the 16 GB variant can also be equipped with a 128 GB eMMC – all those upgrades bump the cost, of course.
Also present is a 6000 mAh battery, front and rear cameras, a USB Type-C 3.0 port (with DisplayPort), and a 3.5mm audio jack.
The DC-ROMA RISC-V Pad II ships with Ubuntu 24.04 out the box, but DeepComputing say the 16GB model will also support (a custom build of) Android 15 AOSP in time.
