Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W Announced

The Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W is an upgraded SiP that offers five times more performance than the original Pi Zero while retaining the same tiny form factor. So, the latest model will continue to be compatible with existing cases and accessories.

The company was able to improve the performance of the system by fitting an upgraded SoC, theBroadcom BCM2710A1 chipsetthat also powers the Raspberry Pi 3 system, paired with 512MP of LPDDR2 RAM. The company clocked down the chipset to 1Ghz. However, it provides a significant performance improvement. Furthermore, the system-board comes with heavy copper layers to battle thermal issues. As a result, the Pi Zero 2 W is much heavier than its predecessors.

Now, coming to the price and availability of Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, itcosts only $15(~Rs 1,123). However, it is available for a price ranging from Rs. 1,300 to Rs. 1,550 in India via various authorized Raspberry Pi resellers.
