PayPalRaspberry Pi have revealed even more price rises for their hardware, as the AI surge continues and it may be a tough pill to swallow. They've also announced a new model, the 3GB Raspberry Pi 4 which is very real despite the April Fools date it was announced on for $83.75 / £80.40.
Some products are not getting an increased price though. They're still holding the price of the Raspberry Pi 400 with 4GB of memory, and the 1GB and 2GB variants of Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi 5. Everything else is going up though.
The price increases they listed are:
| Product | Density | Price increase |
| Raspberry Pi 4 and 5 | 4GB | $25 |
| Raspberry Pi 4 and 5 | 8GB | $50 |
| Raspberry Pi 5 | 16GB | $100 |
| Raspberry Pi 500 (unit only and kit) | $50 | |
| Raspberry Pi 500+ unit only | $150 | |
| Raspberry Pi 500+ kit | $150 | |
| Compute Module 4 and 4S | 1GB | $11.25 |
| Compute Module 4, 4S, 5 | 2GB | $12.50 |
| Compute Module 4, 4S, 5 | 4GB | $25 |
| Compute Module 4, 4S, 5 | 8GB | $50 |
| Compute Module 5 | 16GB | $100 |
| Development Kit for Compute Module 5 | $25 | |
| Raspberry Pi AI HAT+ 2 | $50 |
They did say prices will come down once the AI bubble bursts, whenever that happens to be. Hopefully soon. The entire hardware industry is a mess right now.
