Did you not bother to check or are prices being segregated by market?
I'm in the US and when I visit the Radxa AliExpress listing (both yesterday and just now) the 32 GB variant is priced at $644 (includes import fees) plus $24 shipping. The 16 GB variant is $547 and the 8 GB is $479.
The OPi6+ 32 GB is $300 from Amazon locally or $415 plus shipping from AliExpress. (The irony of referring to Amazon as local is not lost on me.)
O6N is over $400 without any installed RAM from what I could find (making it $600 minimum given current RAM prices).
Also reading HN comments it seems the general software support picture is not great for any of these. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46401499
That sounds like steep tariffs on top of the price.
I wouldn’t rely on any user reporting for the software situation as Sky1-Linux is very new and solves basically all the software problems.
The 06N doesn’t have slots, only soldered ram, so it must have RAM, only a question of how much.
