Raspberry Pi 5

Please note that I was supplied with a pre-release Raspberry Pi 5 and accessories by Raspberry Pi Limited. This video is therefore flagged as a paid promotion, as a company’s “product is included directly in the content and the company [gave me] free of charge products”. But Raspberry Pi did not not have any input to the content, other than providing answers to some specific technical queries at my request.

Greetings All! Following many posts below, just a word on the operation of the Pi 5 power button. When power is first connected to the Pi 5 (ie the adapter is plugged in to the wall socket and/or switched on there), the Pi 5 immediately boots -- which is what happens in the first boot shown in the video. But if the Pi is then shut down but power is not removed, the power button can be pressed to boot it up again (which is what happens in the second two boots shown in the video). So those worrying that human intervention is neccessary on every boot, or after a power outage, need not fear. :)

We don't get special extra episodes that often—thank you for taking the time to get this video out to us this week!

[jakraziel]

The fact you were sent one prerelease shows the massive respect the SBC producers and community have for you.

[Jones-cgpi]

Here I am drinking my morning coffee and out of nowhere an EC video about RPi5 drops on my lap. Top notch production value as always, thanks Christopher!

[shyhrk]

Always loving EC's style of video: no BS, clear, nicely paced, and usually if not always tells all of what I would've wanted to ask about particular thing. Thank you for the great videos, as always. I'm always praying for you to be always healthy, happy, and be able to keep doing what you enjoy doing. <3

Good to see you again, sir. Best no nonsense reviews on the Tube. Must be nice to get your hands on this, you deserve it!

[The-sound-of-silence]

What people like most about you is that you deliver a full review with such an honest way, straight to the point, straight to the hearts of your audience. Thank you

[ThisIsHolyJJ]

This is probably going to go down as the single most welcome bonus video of all time. Timed very nicely to coincide with the opening of Rpi5 pre-orders.
Excellent video as always, Chris. You're truly a legend!

This announcement was kept under wraps better than most government Top Secret projects! I woke up today and had my inbox filled with Raspberry Pi 5 news. Just preordered mine with cooling. Appreciate the preview Chris! This upgrade is surely worth the price. Can't wait to get mine. Stay well. Rich

This is the review I was waiting for. I could and have listened to this man talk about SBCs for hours.

[barrycheesemore]

Wow, I am seriously impressed by the Raspberry Pi 5, it seems to perform really well, and still with the same form factor. Awesome stuff!!

[JeSuisUnePatate]

I wasn't expecting that before 2024! It's Christmas already! I love that we got the usual full presentation of this Pi5 from you Chris. Awesome video!

[quicksilver]

Love your videos. No flashy nonsense. Just facts presented in an organized and easy to understand presentation.

This guy has perfectly captured the look and feel of late 70s early 80s bbc-open university-schools TV. Every episode takes me back to sitting in class and the tv and vcr being wheeled in for subjects the teacher didn’t have a hope of understanding.

[stedunn]

This is painfully exciting! I adore this channel and I'm so thankful!
It takes me back to the early 90s Manchester watching VHS education programs in school when the teacher needed a break 😂 but only a lot more interesting.

[MarkArrand-cfcl]

I am sold. I am definitely going to get one for myself and learn how to use it. I passed up Pi for a long time, not really knowing any better. Egg on my face. Lol. Can't wait for it to come out. Thank you for a very informative video.

[thomasj]

I’m happy to support you by joining your channel. Not because of the perks resulting of this but for the significance of your work. Thanks for maintaining a channel which continues to enrich the community.

[derAyeon]

Yay an extra video from the best YouTuber on YouTube. The new pi seems promising although the lack of a audio jack sure sucks for some use cases. Hopefully they keep support for the Ethernet without a dongle.

[Nullx]

The song of you intro is so satisfying, i keep playing it over and over again

[dreamer-]

Always happy to see a new review or tutorial from you, always straight to the point and clearly explained as it should be!

Thank You.
