Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ 1GB 64-bit Quad-Core Single Board Computer

The Raspberry Pi 3 Model B has been given a makeover. It's time to meet the 3B+.

This addition to the Raspberry Pi range has a 64-bit quad-core processor which runs at a more powerful 1.4GHz. It also offers dual-band wireless LAN, Bluetooth 4.2/BLE and a Gigabit ethernet port.

It's definitely a more powerful beast, but it retains the easy connectivity and software of the Raspberry Pi 3. In short, if you love the Raspberry Pi 3, you'll love the 3 Model B+ even more.

Unfamiliar with Raspberry Pi? Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer with USB ports for devices such as a mouse and keyboard and an HDMI output for HDTVs. Millions have been sold worldwide into education, to home users and even into industry. This gives the Raspberry Pi the backing of a very active community which is constantly producing tutorials, software examples and programs you can download from the Internet for free. There's also a huge range of add-on hardware available, from cameras to robotics and more, making it a fantastic base for electronic projects. The Raspberry Pi is also a capable computer that will perform many of the functions that a desktop PC will, like spreadsheets, word processing and games, it will also play high definition video.

For Optimum Performance Please Note: While Raspberry Pi boards may be used with a variety of peripheral devices. It is important that the correct Raspberry Pi OS is loaded for the Pi model you have purchased, this is especially important for older peripherals. We can only support official Raspberry Pi software and peripherals, please see product change notice from Raspberry Pi in the datasheet tab above. The latest official Raspberry Pi OS is available here.
