The Raspberry Pi Foundation has introduced the Raspberry Pi 500+, an advanced all-in-one desktop computer built on the Raspberry Pi 5 platform. This new model follows the previous Raspberry Pi 500 and features impressive upgrades, especially for typing enthusiasts and tech aficionados.
One of the standout attributes of the Raspberry Pi 500+ is its high-quality mechanical keyboard. This keyboard incorporates Gateron KS-33 Blue switches, ensuring a satisfying tactile experience as each key is pressed. The keyboard also boasts removable keycaps and customizable RGB backlighting, which enhances its appeal and functionality. Each purchase includes a key puller, making it easy for users to swap out keys or customize with aftermarket keycap sets.
In addition to its aesthetic upgrades, the Raspberry Pi 500+ is equipped with a substantial 256GB internal M.2 SSD. Users seeking additional storage can replace this SSD with other 2280-format boards if desired.
The device comes preloaded with the Debian-based Raspberry Pi OS, which allows flexibility for users to boot from either an SD card or an external USB SSD. Its internal Raspberry Pi 5 board features a 2.4 GHz quad-core Arm Cortex-A76 CPU, dual 4K display outputs, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth support, and various other advanced capabilities.
The Raspberry Pi Foundation touted the Raspberry Pi 500+ as an "ultimate all-in-one PC," aiming to pay tribute to the historical significance of home computers from years past. Priced at $200, it is available through local retailers, with a Desktop Kit option for $220 that includes a Raspberry Pi Mouse, power supply, HDMI cable, and a beginner’s guide.
