Review of the MediaTek LinkIt ONE

18 Sep 2015

Well Some good news i have been lucky enough to be given a free MediaTek LinkItTm ONE Development Platform worth £38 for free no strings attached from Instructables.com in partnership with MediaTek. I know i said no strings but they would like me to post a few instructables showing how good the Dev Board is which is only fair but thats not all for every instructable i post i will receive a $50 Amazon Gift Card (about £32) so i am planning on working hard on this one which i hope will lead to a lot more offers to review more great product like this one.

Ok what is it and what can it do? Well from what i have read so far it seams to be aimed at the Internet of Things (IoT) and wearables market and they have done a great job packing a ton of feature into the one board.  For starters you get wireless technology coming out of the wazzoo with onboard Bluetooth 2.1 and 4.0, 802.11 b/g/n Wifi, GSM QuadBand and GPRS Class 12 not to mention you also have GPS/GLONASS/BeiDou, SD Card (upto 32Gb),  16Mb of onboard flash (10Mb user accessable) and 4Mb of ram (upto 2Mb for program execution) all tied together with a MT2502A (Aster) ARM7 EJ-STm 260MHz processor which is not bad plus from what i can tell you also get a rechargeable battery in the box to power this little power house.

Linkit one 0_02As soon as i get the board i will post an unboxing video and a quick run though of all the cool things that this great board comes with but for now you can read more here. Hopefully this will be the beginning of a long line of products company's will send me to review and road test because i love playing with these great toys and i hope to share my adventures with you all. Until next post Keep on hacking the world and if you have any ideas on what to build with this great board please let me know in the comments and i will see what i can do.

    Me too I'm waiting for the one from instructables and I am starting documenting on it. Most interesting part is - not yet tested - the SDK and annexed samples and other stuff. Enrico

    The Hugo project is just the testing. This is absolutely astonishing. I wondered how many well working things they have fit keeping the development level anyway near to the Arduino developers. There are…

    It is really the worth, in my opinion.

    The Hugo project is just the testing. This is absolutely astonishing. I wondered how many well working things they have fit keeping the development level anyway near to the Arduino developers. There are some minor problems but with the project I am completing I see that it was not so difficult to make a good workaround. They have also built a very good ecosystem for the developers.

     

    Few days and I will publish an instructable first and a project on their blog.
