The Raspberry Pi Foundation has launched<\/strong><\/a> its latest Raspberry Pi mini-computer – the Raspberry Pi 400.<\/p>\n

This design of this device differs from previous models, comprising a Pi mini-computer that is built into a tenkeyless keyboard.<\/p>\n

This design is inspired by the classic PCs of the 1980s, and it houses a faster and cooler 4GB Raspberry Pi 4 mini computer.<\/p>\n

This means that it boasts a quad-core 64-bit processor, 4GB of RAM, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, as well as the standard 40-pin GPIO header sported by many devices in the Raspberry Pi lineup.<\/p>\n

“Raspberry Pi 4, which we launched in June last year, is roughly forty times as powerful as the original Raspberry Pi, and offers an experience that is indistinguishable from a legacy PC for the majority of users,” the Raspberry Pi Foundation said.<\/p>\n

“Particularly since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, we\u2019ve seen a rapid increase in the use of Raspberry Pi 4 for home working and studying.”<\/p>\n

At launch, the Pi 400 is available in English UK, English US, French, Italian, German and Spanish keyboard layouts.<\/p>\n

The Raspberry Pi 400 is priced at only $70, or $100 for a Raspberry Pi 400 Personal Computer Kit.<\/p>\n

The kit includes the following hardware:<\/p>\n
