“I bought this to replace my Pi3B that runs Home Assistant. While the 5 is overkill for Home Assistant the ability to boot from USB SSD out of the box was what I wanted plus a degree of future proofing. HA is now super responsive and I can start thinking about local voice control knowing that the hardware will easily be capable.”
“First pi I've purchased since the 3B and it's such a jump in performance. Works great as a personal NAS and I can boot from a usb stick directly onto moonlight for game streaming from my pc!”
“I am very pleased with this version of Raspberry Pi. It appears to be much faster than the Raspberry Pi 4 and works well. I love the added socket for battery and fan.”
“What an amazing little computer! Faster and more powerful than the RPi 4B. I've been using Raspberry Pi computer since the V1 Raspberry Pi Model B and have almost every model.”
