Considering the price increase and unless you really need the GPIO I don't know why you would pick this over a second hand 1L form factor PC... I love raspberry pi but since I picked up an m720q with an i5-9500t and 64 Gb of Ram that can run very intensive tasks such as a 16 slices CW/FT8/WSPR plus WebSDR and several others in Windows 11 and Linux VM or Container under proxmox they have become a very tough sell. Not to mention the way the Raspberry pi foundation treated the maker community during COVID.
