Top upgrades made in Raspberry Pi 4.
The most awaited mini-computer a.k.a development board for makers and professionals has finally launched. Yes, correct, The RASPBERRY PI 4.
After the huge success of Raspberry Pi 3B+ which comprises 30% of the total sale of raspberry pies. The company has launched the successor of raspberry pi 3B+, the new upgrades make Raspberry 4 powerful and faster than any raspberry version currently in the market.
The designers have designed Raspberry Pi 4 with the latest tech to increase the throughput of the board.
What’s New? Comparing RPi 4 vs RPI3B+
