Raspberry Pi 500+ is a premium computer built into a high-quality mechanical keyboard, redefining the compact PC experience for power users and enthusiasts.
Powered by the same quad-core 64-bit Arm processor and RP1 I/O controller found in Raspberry Pi 5, the deluxe Raspberry Pi 500+ also integrates a one-piece aluminium heatsink for improved thermal performance. This ensures it will run fast and smoothly even under heavy load, while delivering glorious dual 4K display output. It is ideal for surfing the web, creating and editing documents, watching videos, and learning to program using the Raspberry Pi OS desktop environment
Raspberry Pi 500+ features 16GB of LPDDR4X-4267 SDRAM to handle the most memory-intensive workloads, and a pre-installed 256GB Raspberry Pi SSD for blazingly fast I/O performance. Clicky Gateron Blue KS-33 mechanical keyboard switches are paired with ergonomic low-profile keycaps and individually addressable RGB LEDs.
Tools are included for opening the case to replace the SSD and for swapping out the default keycaps. Comprehensive instructions are available here.
What else do I need?
The Raspberry Pi 500 keyboard unit comes with a speedy 256GB SSD pre-loaded with Raspberry Pi OS, so it's super quick to get going. It doesn't include a power supply, so you'll need to add one of those to your cart. You may also want to pick up a matching mouse?
If you're looking for the ultimate Raspberry Pi 500+ setup, the Raspberry Pi 500+ 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.
If you're planning on using HATs or mini HATs with your Pi 500 you'll probably want to pick up either a Flat HAT Hacker or a GPIO extension cable, take a look at the extras for more options.
