Raspberry Pi 1GB

Raspberry Pi launches 1GB Raspberry Pi 5 at $45, raises the price of other models

Raspberry Pi has launched a 1GB Raspberry Pi 5 for low-memory projects and simple electronics, and confirmed price rises across parts of the Raspberry Pi 4 and 5 ranges.

Eben Upton, Chief Executive Raspberry Pi Trading, said the pricing adjustments follow an unusual rise in LPDDR4 memory costs. He noted that supply has constricted across the wider industry as AI infrastructure builders continue to secure large volumes of memory. Raspberry Pi previously announced increases for its Compute Module products in October, and the new changes now bring the single-board line into the same pattern.
