An updated version of the “raspberry”,
Raspberry Pi B + , was released relatively recently, priced at $ 35. Now the cost of this mini-PC is reduced by the manufacturer to $ 25, immediately to $ 10. According to the developers, this reduction was made possible by "optimizing production." Details regarding such optimization were not provided, but this is not important - after all, now mini-PCs have become even cheaper.
It is worth noting that the price reduction looks quite logical step, because the Raspberry Pi B + and Raspberry Pi 2, released in February, were sold at the same price. And this is despite the fact that the Raspberry Pi 2 features are much better than the Raspberry Pi B +.
The company says that the Raspberry Pi B + is selling very well, despite the fact that prices for a new mini-PC model and for just an improved version of the Raspberry Pi B were the same. Presumably, now sales will go even better.
