Chris says he did not test the Bluetooth and Wifi card he lists on his kit either:

• He says we need a keyboard and mouse and shows a mini Trackpad usb keyboard 9:44

• Chris says it is too small for making his video

Chris says the usb mini trackpad keyboard works fine

• but this needs to be confirmed.
• Where does it work fine, with the Ubuntu installation he uses?

• in the video, we can see that he plugs in an usb mouse
• in the video, we can see that Chris uses a large keyboard for typing on the Orange Pi 5, is it an usb keyoard, too? One can only see that he plugs in an usb mouse, but not the keyboard.

• Do you have experience with this setup, if so, do you own these components and do you have tested those, please write it to the comments below:

• If users do not confirm that these setup works, it is a reason not to buy it.

• There is no information from Orange about which peripherials work with the Orange Pi 5.
