You&#8217;ll see\u00a0<em>significantly<\/em>\u00a0faster boot speeds, and much\u00a0better\u00a0performance for CPU-heavy tasks like emulation and media centre usage; much snappier all round!<\/p>\n<p>The Raspberry Pi 4 moves to USB-C power meaning that you&#8217;ll need a new USB-C power supply that can supply 5V at 3A. We&#8217;ve got a couple of different options: a worldwide USB-C power\u00a0supply, and the official\u00a0Raspberry Pi\u00a0power supply.<\/p>\n<h2>Significantly faster IO<\/h2>\n<p>The Raspberry Pi 4 has\u00a0two USB 3.0 ports, for\u00a0up to 10x faster transfer speeds than USB 2.0, perfect for connecting fast peripherals like SSDs and flash drives. There are also two USB 2.0 ports for connecting less speed-dependent peripherals like keyboards and mice.<\/p>\n<p>The ethernet jack on the Raspberry Pi 4 moves to true gigabit speed, for super-speedy wired networking and, as with the Raspberry Pi 3 B+, there&#8217;s Power-over-Ethernet capability too (requires additional Raspberry Pi PoE HAT).<\/p>\n<h2>4K\u00a0display support,\u00a0dual micro-HDMI<\/h2>\n<p>There are dual micro-HDMI ports that support up to 4Kp60, to use your Raspberry Pi 4\u00a0with much larger displays with crisp, sharp, high resolution. Use the H.265 4Kp60 hardware decoding to watch 4K movies in your favourite media centre distro.<\/p>\n<p>For the first time, you&#8217;ll be able to use dual HDMI displays with the Raspberry Pi. This is great for working on a bunch of different tasks at the same time without having to work in tiny windows.<\/p>\n<h2>Bluetooth 5.0 and wireless LAN<\/h2>\n<p>The\u00a0new chipset supports Bluetooth 5.0 (from 4.2 on the Raspberry Pi 3 B+) and also dual-band\u00a0802.11 b\/g\/n\/ac wireless LAN, like the previous generation Raspberry Pi, for quick\u00a0wireless networking with less interference\u00a0and better reception.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Raspberry Pi 4 has up to 8GB RAM,\u00a0a faster quad-core CPU, support for dual displays at up to 4K resolution, Gigabit Ethernet, USB3.0, wireless LAN, Bluetooth 5.0, and USB-C power.
