Today, we’re delighted to announce the launch of Raspberry Pi 5, coming at the end of October. Priced at $60 for the 4GB variant, and $80 for its 8GB sibling (plus your local taxes), virtually every aspect of the platform has been upgraded, delivering a no-compromises user experience.

Raspberry Pi 5 is the latest generation, with an improved quad-core Cortex-A76 64-bit CPU running at 2.4GHz, an 800MHz VideoCore VII GPU, and M.2 NVME SSD support. Like the Pi 4, the newer model also supports Bluetooth 5.0, dual-band Wi-Fi, and comes stock with two USB 2.0 and two USB 3.0 ports.

Announced on September 28, but rolling out to consumers in a few weeks, the Raspberry Pi 5 is a radical upgrade its predecessor, boasting a much faster processor, built-in PCIe support, a real-time clock and, for the first time on a Pi, a power button.
