Lots of power but lots of heat! This is a fantastic update of the Raspberry Pi and we finally have a desktop computer and a platform for makers to experiment and create. If you are new to Raspberry Pi, or need a powerful board, the Raspberry Pi 4 is the one to buy.

If you’re looking to use the Pi with specific software like LibreELEC or RetroPie, I’d wait until that software is ready for prime time before you buy one. But desktop usage on the Pi 4 is such a clear step up from its predecessors that I’m quite impressed.
