This Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ has a faster 64-bit 1.4GHz quad core processor, 1GB of RAM, faster dual-band 802.11 b/g/n/ac wireless LAN, Bluetooth 4.2, and significantly faster 300Mbit/s ethernet.
The newer Pi4 Model B has arrived, but this one works great for most people.

I have purchased this raspberry pi for a computer use and gaming and such. You can do a lot of things with the raspberry pi such as programming. Anything is possible to do with the raspberry pi.

The Rasberry Pi platform is a great affordable learning board, and works well for retro gaming. Lots of power for a small budget. Very customizable and will do pretty much anything you need it to do.

I got this one to make a retropie setup, but then I started messing with the idea of having all my networks unwanted ads sucked away using pi-hole. This is just the tip of the iceberg. There's so many things you can do with these raspberry pis, it's delightful. And while this isn't the newest one available, it does have a full-size HDMI port so you don't have to worry about adapters to get it up and running.
FYI, it does require a separate power adapter for those that don't know. Getting a few cheap heat sinks isn't a bad idea either, as the pi will slow itself down if it gets too hot. Retropie does get it hot, so a tiny fan in a case is a good idea. Pi-hole barely does anything to this, so a fan-less setup works just fine.

Good for Coding projects and price is very economical. Buy the board from Best Buy and accessories from Amazon to complete your kit.

I am using this for Linux based development as I wait on our prototype boards. It runs much faster and smoother than I expected. Very easy to use if you put Raspian on it.

The raspberry pi is amazingly useful. It's well made. If you use it for heavy computing (that is, heavy for this little guy), you may want to get a case with a cooling fan.
I love it!

Using a Raspberry Pi is not that difficult! It can be used for 100s of projects. In my case I am using to control a 3d printer! Can't beat the functionality and ability!

Great product! You might need to look up Youtube tutorials and possibly a high write and read speed SD card but besides that, fairly easy to use.

Recently started to dabble with Raspberry Pi's, this is my second unit. I bought the Model 3B+ because I want to use this as a portable device and the model 3's use a tad less power than the model 4's. Currently this is hooked up to the Element 14 7" touchscreen, and it works great. I cloned the Micro SD card from my Pi 4 and this 3B+ booted up from it flawlessly. Who can beat a computer for $35!
