I paid almost identical price for my Orange Pi 5 (RK3588S) and Raspberry 
Pi 5.

Yes, that is possibly true, but to my mind the real difference is the 
quality of the software and driver support. The Raspberry Pi support is 
hugely better than the Orange Pi 5. That's why I made the Tesla analogy, 
The Raspberry Pi foundation has a head start on the market[1], but there 
is no real reason other companies can't duplicate it when market 
conditions are right.

[1] Ignoring Apple, because they are a different price bracket.
