I was lucky enough to get early access to the Pi5[1]. I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have.

How's the USB-C port on it? Is it still limited to USB 2.0? I want USB 3.0 for OTG (usb client) uses.


The USB-C port is still USB2 like the Raspberry Pi 4. Both the 4 and the 5 support OTG over the USB-C port.


Could you please run the Geekbench 6 [1] benchmark and report the results?
