Raspberry Pi 4 Computer Model B- Latest Raspberry Pi Board

Introduction Raspberry Pi: The Ultimate Single Board Computer for IoT Development (2025)

The Raspberry Pi has become one of the most popular and affordable single-board computers, empowering developers, students, and DIY enthusiasts to build real-world projects with ease. Whether you’re just getting started with programming or working on advanced IoT applications, Raspberry Pi is your go-to tool in 2025.

Why Raspberry Pi Is a Game-Changer

Raspberry Pi isn’t just a tiny board — it’s a full-fledged computer that can replace a desktop CPU for many tasks. Its versatility makes it ideal for:

• Internet of Things (IoT) solutions
• Home automation
• Educational tools
• DIY tech projects
• Prototyping embedded systems

From classrooms to smart homes, it enables hands-on learning and creative experimentation like never before.

Raspberry Pi Models You Should Know in 2025

Here’s a quick look at the most commonly used Raspberry Pi boards, along with their release timeline:

These boards are compatible with various operating systems and are widely supported in the maker and developer communities.

Raspberry Pi 4 Computer (Raspberry Pi 4 Model B)

Raspberry Pi 4 Computer is the newest product in the Raspberry Pi family and it is categories as Model B.

It is a very powerful single board computer and provides desktop level performance compared to entry-level x86 PC systems.

Raspberry Pi 4 is completely upgraded and re-engineered, this makes it faster and more powerful computer (single board computer). 

It’s the first time that the RasberryPi foundation built a complete desktop experience board. You can easily do editing documents, web browsing with a bunch of tabs open, drafting a presentation or juggling spreadsheets.  you’ll surely get smooth PC experience but on a smaller, energy-efficient and much more cost-effective computer machine.

When we compare Raspberry Pi 4 Model B with Raspberry Pi 3 model B and Model B+, it offers high processing speed, increases in Multimedia performance, increase in memory and connectivity. But power consumption and backward compatibility remain the same. We will see details comparison in our next article.  

This raspberry pi provides the dual display with 4K output means you can connect two 4k monitors to Raspberry Pi 4 and both run smoothie. With this up-gradation in Raspberry Pi board, Programmers & developers are very happy.    

This board available from $35, Now you can get desktop PC experience from $35 so you can easily upgrade your old projects with new Raspberry Pi 4.

Raspberry Pi 4 Features:

1. Experience the desktop computer in $35 
2. Support dual display with 4K output
3. Silent and energy efficient – it is fanless and consumes very less power compared to other computers.
4. Provide Fast networking- it comes with Gigabit Ethernet, onboard wireless networking & Bluetooth.
5. USB 3- it upgraded USB capacity it provides two USB 3 ports and two USB 2 ports. USB 3 can transfer data up to 10 times faster compared to USB 2. 
6. It comes with RAM of 1GB, 2 GB and 4 GB, you can select as per your need.
