My first i.MX8MQ device. Not the which I ordered more than 4 years ago, but which I ordered two months ago. Thanks to @mntmn for making it happen, and christmas spirit (whatever name it has) which made sure it was all in time and in proper order :)
p.s. There's also nice green keyboard next to it but it didn't fit the viewport :) Both items are very solid and well made.

Christmas is here!
