“A worthwhile upgrade. Certainly faster than previous versions and well capable of running normal desktop applications. The on/off switch is a welcome addition, time will tell how long it lasts.”
“Exceptional Performance and Versatility
It has truly exceeded my expectations. The upgraded hardware specifications of the Raspberry Pi 5, including a faster processor, increased RAM, and enhanced graphics capabilities, contribute to a significant boost in overall performance. The 4K video support enhances its multimedia capabilities, making it an excellent choice for projects requiring high-resolution video output.”
“Great product - fast, does everything I need (except PoE - coming soon apparently with the Pi5 PoE Hat)
Currently running HomeAssistant and a few housekeeping daemons - DHCP, DNS, provisioning, network monitoring.
Much faster than the Pi4.
Not so great was the PiHut service - order was placed in unfulfilled for days (yes it was over Christmas so I give some leeway) but only an email to customer service moved it but I didn't get the courtesy of a response from CS.”
