It’s been a while since Raspberry Pi has updated their Model A board — four years, specifically. Their new release, announced today, takes the Pi 1 Model A+ and bumps it up to Pi 3 specs, incorporating the same 64-bit quad core processor with 1.4Ghz clock speed and 2.4/5Ghz wireless networking as their flagship Pi 3 Model B+. Following the traditional Model A specifications, it omits an ethernet port, and has one USB port instead of the four found on the B+.
Price stays constant at $25 — ten bucks cheaper than the B+.
The new Pi is available now. Find more info here.
