Raspberry Pi raises 2GB Pi 4 and Pi 5 prices by up to 23%
Raspberry Pi has hiked prices on the 2GB Raspberry Pi 4 and Pi 5, citing rising LPDDR4 and LPDDR5 memory costs and component shortages.
Raspberry Pi has raised prices on the 2GB versions of the Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi 5 by up to 23%, as first reported by tomshardware.com. The increases are attributed to rising LPDDR4 and LPDDR5 memory costs and ongoing component shortages.
The Raspberry Pi 5 2GB now sells for $77.50, a 19% increase over its previous price. The Raspberry Pi 4 2GB now costs $67.50, a 23% increase.
The move follows a broader round of price adjustments in April 2026, when Raspberry Pi raised prices on several models. At that time, the 2GB versions of the Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi 5 were not affected.
The Raspberry Pi 5 2GB launched two years ago at $50 and later stabilized at $65. In February 2026, the Raspberry Pi 5 2GB was priced at $65 and the Raspberry Pi 4 2GB at $55.
Raspberry Pi CEO Eben Upton recently confirmed that maintaining previous pricing for lower-capacity models is no longer feasible.
