As stated before in a quote it looks like the raspberry pi trading ltd rushed indeed releasing this board. Every day passing this 16nm lithography design (introduced 2016 - so 7 years old) it’s collecting dust.
As a side note a RK3588(S) comes with a NPU integrated with 6 TOPS (50% more than a coral NPU)
The Orange Pi 5 Plus even features 2xPCIe and 2.5G LAN
The Price for a (available) Orange Pi 5 VS a (not available) Raspberry Pi 5 looks like to be in the same ball park while the later offers much less (CPU,GPU,NPU,Storage)
And the “new” VideoCore 7 GPU from the Raspberry Pi 5 looks like a joke based on the limited information available
It looks like to have 12 () times lower performance than the Mali G610 found in the two year older RK3588 based SBC’s like the Orange Pi 5
