Are A588 and RK3588 the same?

Yes, they refer to the same thing. A588 isthe model name of Dingchang's RK3588 motherboard (short for DC_A588), whichuses the RK3588 processor. Here, "A" stands for the public version.Dingchang usually prioritizes updating the system firmware for the A-versionpublic motherboards.

A588 is a powerful RK3588 motherboard that supports a wide range of operating systems, including Android 12, Ubuntu 20.04,Debian 11, Kylin V10SP1, StarKylin V1.0, OpenHarmonyOS 4.12, and the serverversion of Ubuntu 20.04 Server.
