Flipper One is a high-performance, open Linux platform designed to support many use cases, including network analysis, software-defined radio, and offline AI or LLM projects. The device uses a fully Linux-supported RK3576 octa-core chipset with a Mali-G52 GPU and an NPU rated at 6 TOPS for running local large language models, supported by 8GB of built-in RAM. A secondary dual-core Raspberry Pi RP2350 microcontroller handles display, button interface, touchpad control, LEDs, and power subsystem tasks. The device can operate entirely on the RP2350 without running Linux for power efficiency. Hardware is packed into a palm-sized form factor with additional user interface components and expansion capability.
"The Flipper One is an open (and when they say open, they mean it -- from full mainline Linux kernel support, absolutely no binary blobs, closed drivers, or proprietary firmware, and no vendor-locked board support package), high-performance Linux platform that can form the basis for pretty much anything that you want it to do, from a network analyzer to an SDR (Software-Defined Radio) to an offline AI or LLM project."
"Inside there's a high-performance 2.2 GHz octa-core RK3576 chipset that features a Mali-G52 GPU and an NPU capable of 6 TOPS (Trillion Operations Per Second) that allows you to run local LLMs (Large Language Models -- one of which will be a Flipper One specific LLM for using the tool). This chipset is fully supported by Linux, and there's 8GB of built-in RAM to handle the operating system and apps."
"Running alongside this main chip is a secondary dual-core Raspberry Pi RP2350 microcontroller for handling the basic tasks of the Flipper One, things like the display, button interface, touchpad control, LEDs, and the power subsystem. In fact, if you don't want to run Linux, the Flipper One can run entirely on the RP2350 chip. This makes the Flipper One a very power-efficient device when it's not running Linux."
