Description

The Raspberry Pi 500+ is the next evolution of the beloved Raspberry Pi all-in-one computer, now designed for power users and enthusiasts who want more performance and premium features. Building on the success of the original Raspberry Pi 500, this upgraded model features a high-quality mechanical keyboard with individually addressable RGB backlighting and replaceable keys, making it not only a powerful machine but also a joy to use daily.

Under the hood, the Raspberry Pi 500+ packs serious upgrades. It doubles the memory to a generous 16GB LPDDR4X, and comes bundled with a 256GB SSD pre-loaded with the latest Raspberry Pi OS, ensuring faster load times and smoother multitasking. Powered by a 2.4GHz quad-core Arm Cortex-A76 CPU and a VideoCore VII GPU, it’s capable of handling everything from development projects to high-definition media playback. With built-in Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5.0, Gigabit Ethernet, and dual micro-HDMI ports, connectivity is never an issue.

It also integrates a one-piece aluminium heatsink for improved thermal performance. This ensures your Raspberry Pi 500+ will run fast and smoothly even under heavy load, while delivering glorious dual 4K display output. Clicky Gateron KS-33 Blue mechanical keyboard switches are paired with ergonomic low-profile keycaps and individually addressable RGB LEDs. Sleek, versatile, and powerful, this is the Pi reimagined for modern computing.

For those looking for the complete Raspberry Pi 500+ setup, the Raspberry Pi 500+ Desktop Kit comes with a mouse, a USB-C power supply, and an HDMI cable, along with the Official Raspberry Pi Beginner’s Guide, to help you get the most out of your new computer.
