The Raspberry Pi has always been more of a fun curiosity than a serious piece of business equipment. While it’s always had its niche uses in a business environment, such as powering digital signage or handling small-scale network management tasks, there were always barriers to its usefulness as a general-purpose end-user computing device for enterprise workers. Raspberry Pi 400 is a complete Raspberry Pi 4-based personal computer, fully integrated into a keyboard for ease of setup and use. Raspberry Pi 400 has various connectors and interfacing options: two USB 3.0 ports and a single USB 2.0 port for peripherals; two micro-HDMI ports, supporting up to 4k resolution; Gigabit Ethernet, 802.11ac wireless networking and Bluetooth 5; and a standard 40-pin GPIO port, supporting Raspberry Pi HAT expansion boards. There are endless possibilities with this amazing computer that you can take anywhere

The Raspberry Pi 400 is powered by a USB-C connector and comes with various inputs and outputs such as Gigabit Ethernet, USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 as well as 2 x micro HDMI ports for use with any display. It is also equipped with 2.4GHz and 5.0 GHz wireless LAN for those on the move. There are endless possibilities with this amazing computer that you can take anywhere. Digging into the benchmark results a little further tells us a bit more about this Pi’s capabilities. For the image editing tests, which are designed to measure a device’s ability to handle multiple sequential workloads on a single core, it scored just two points – that’s compared to a score of five for the Pi 4. The video editing test was the most successful, with a score of 42, while a result of 26 for the multitasking test is creditable.

If you need a micro-HDMI adapter to use your existing HDMI cable with the Raspberry Pi 400 then we've got you covered! Bluetooth 5.0 and wireless LAN The Raspberry Pi 400 kit is a complete personal computer built into a compact keyboard, with everything you need in the box (minus a monitor or TV)!

The Raspberry Pi 400 kit is an incredible option for value for money. You get the Pi 400 computer as well as all the items you need to get started straight out of the box, you only need a monitor. So you don’t have to search to find everything individually. Zero Hassle. Revolutionary Raspberry PiFor use as a simple desktop replacement and for educational purposes I would give the Pi 400 5 stars. As with all things Raspberry Pi, you're not going to get Apple-level hardware (no chamfered aluminium edges, diamond-blasted surfaces, stainless steel bands, etc.), but at least for the model I received, the plastic molds seemed to produce high-quality parts, and everything fit together (and survived four separate complete teardown-rebuild cycles!) very well. Now, with the heat sink out of the way, you can see the Pi 400 is a completely different design than the Pi 4 model B and Compute Module 4, even though much of the circuitry is similar if not identical: If you’re looking to get started with a Pi (or you have kids that want to get started with coding), then the 400 makes it that much easier: just plug it in and go. Sure, you lose out on the camera and display connectors, but with the GPIO port available at the rear, you can still develop a lot of electronics projects.

But the Pi 400 delivers something many have desired: an official Pi 4 board built right into a Pi Keyboard, in a space- and performance-efficient way. Previously, if you wanted to make your Raspberry Pi look neat and make it that bit more robust, you’d need to buy a case for the board, then hook up your own keyboard, mouse and displays. With the Pi 400, you now get everything you need in an all-in-one computer.On that subject, the engineers over at Pi HQ may actually have been low-balling it when it comes to the performance gains for the latest model. Even when tested with an external cooling fan and firmware updates to reduce throttling, the Pi 4 only managed an overall score of 13.9 in our benchmark tests. The Pi 400, meanwhile, scored a rather staggering 27 points – amazingly, that’s actually two points higher than Microsoft’s Surface Go 2. You can switch video drivers to get the most out of the VideoCore VI GPU. Enabling the GL (Fake KMS) desktop driver using the raspi-config tool in Raspberry Pi OS improved performance in the HardInfo GPU Drawing benchmark improved from 1523 to 1602. Raspberry Pi OS The Pi 400's 1.8GHz CPU, 4GB of RAM, dual micro HDMI ports, wireless LAN, and connectivity options all combine to deliver the full desktop experience that's comparable to entry-level PCs. IO & Connectivity: Not that you need convincing, but here are some of the unique features of the Raspberry Pi 400 that you need in your life: It’s a PC in a keyboard
