"The brains, a Broadcom BCM2711 system-on-chip, features four 64-bit Armv8 Cortex-A72 CPU cores clocked at 1.5GHz, a step up from the A53 found in the Model 3 B+. The Raspberry Pi Foundation reckons its latest shiny-shiny is comparable to an entry-level x86-based system and we’d have to agree. In use, it certainly felt snappier than the last incarnation.
Complementing that CPU bump are some additional RAM options. The claustrophobic 1GB of the 3B+ now enjoys some chunkier siblings in the form of 2 and 4GB LPDDR4 configurations. Sadly, the RAM remains resolutely non-upgradable, though the additional headroom afforded by the extra capacity makes for some intriguing possibilities.
Connectivity has seen improvement with Bluetooth 5 support, and a couple of USB 3 ports, though it is the video modifications that will raise an eyebrow or two."
