Raspberry Pi 5: available now! We’ve been excited to see the response of early users to Raspberry Pi 5, and can’t wait to see what you do once you get your hands on it.
Wow, $80. I haven’t looked into these devices since the first one, but I thought the point of them was to be very cheap. I do wonder what these new more powerful ones are capable of. Perhaps the performance justifies the price.
That’s a point, and that is still very cheap. There are many other models still available that are probably a better option for small hobby projects or people learning programming or physical computing.
Hopefully they do release 1 and 2GB memory varoants which should be $35 and $45 respectively if they follow the pricing of previous models. The performance does look like a big upgrade over the Pi 4 at least.

These are also the higher memory variants. Lower memory variants will likely come later at a lower price point.
