Các tính năng ấn tượng này là lý do tôi đang nâng cấp lên Raspberry Pi 500. Raspberry Pi 500 là một phiên bản tiếp theo của dòng Raspberry Pi 400 với nhiều cải tiến đáng chú ý, khiến nó hoàn toàn xứng đáng để mua.
1. Bộ xử lý mạnh mẽ hơn: Raspberry Pi 500 sử dụng bộ xử lý 2.4GHz quad-core 64-bit Arm Cortex-A76, nhanh hơn gấp đôi hoặc ba lần so với Pi 400, phù hợp cho việc giả lập game, duyệt web/xem phim và chạy IDE nặng như Visual Studio Code trên Raspberry Pi.
2. 8GB RAM cho ứng dụng đa nhiệm: Raspberry Pi 500 được nâng cấp lên 8GB RAM, cho phép chạy nhiều ứng dụng và quá trình cùng một lúc, cung cấp trải nghiệm mượt mà hơn so với Pi 400.
3. Cổng USB nhanh hơn: Raspberry Pi 500 có cổng USB 3.0 tốc độ cao, mang lại tốc độ truyền dữ liệu nhanh hơn khi sao chép file lớn hoặc sử dụng ổ SSD ngoại.
4. Không cần tản nhiệt ngoại vi: Raspberry Pi 500 sử dụng heatsink bên trong bàn phím, ngăn ngừa quá nhiệt và không cần quạt tản nhiệt ngoại vi.
Tuy nhiên, Raspberry Pi 500 cũng có nhược điểm, như việc thiếu khe cắm M.2 và bàn phím không có cảm giác phản hồi tốt. Mặc dù có giá đắt hơn Pi 400, nhưng Raspberry Pi 500 vẫn là một lựa chọn tuyệt vời cho việc học tập và tính toán hàng ngày trên di động. #RaspberryPi500 #CảiTiến #MạnhMẽ #NângCấp

The Raspberry Pi 500 keyboard computer builds significantly on the Raspberry Pi 400 legacy—and it has a heap of standout features that make it absolutely worth buying.
1. A Much More Powerful Processor
Like the Raspberry Pi 400, the Raspberry Pi 500 is inspired by a similarly named single-board computer, the Raspberry Pi 5. The PI 500 is essentially a Raspberry Pi 5 in a keyboard form factor, which means that it has the same 2.4GHz quad-core 64-bit Arm Cortex-A76 processor and RP1 I/O controller.
Based on Raspberry Pi 5 speeds, the Raspberry Pi 500 offers two to three times the speed of the Pi 400 keyboard computer and will outperform the older PC at every computing task. This is good news for users interested in game emulation, browsing/streaming, and running heavy-duty programming IDEs (integrated development environments) like Visual Studio Code on a Raspberry Pi.
If you want even faster speeds, you can overclock the Raspberry Pi 500, but you will run into thermal throttling at some point (around 2.9GHz to 3.0GHz).
2. 8GB of RAM for Demanding Applications
The soldered memory on the Raspberry Pi 500 has also received a sizable upgrade to 8GB, up from 4GB on the earlier keyboard computer. More RAM means that you can run more applications and processes simultaneously. So, you can open more tabs in the Chromium browser and have more apps running in the background without worrying about RAM usage.
Also, the Raspberry Pi 500 uses LPDDR4x memory, which offers double the speed (at less voltage) of the Pi 400’s LPDDR4 chip. Combined with faster SD card read/write speeds, the Raspberry Pi 500 delivers a smoother and more modern experience compared to the Raspberry Pi 400.
3. Faster USB Ports
The Raspberry Pi 500 retains the double USB 3.0 ports and a single USB 2.0 port from the Pi 400. Like the Pi 4, the USB 3.0 ports on the Pi 400 share a maximum bandwidth of 5Gbps; that is, you get slower speeds when both ports are transferring data at the same time.
Thanks to the RP1 1/O controller, the two USB 3.0 ports on the Raspberry Pi 500 now offer more bandwidth, up to 5Gbps per port. You can enjoy faster data transfers for copying large files or using external SSDs.
4. No Need for External Cooling
The Raspberry Pi 5 is notorious for being the only entry in the single-board computer series to require cooling for most uses. The Raspberry Pi 500 fixes this by including the heatsink inside the keyboard. The passive heat spreader covers the surface of the printed circuit board and prevents any overheating/thermal throttling issues during normal operation. This removes the need for an active cooling fan or external heatsink—which makes sense with the Raspberry Pi 500’s design.
The Raspberry Pi 500 Is Not Perfect
My biggest gripe with the Raspberry Pi 500—also noted by most reviewers—is the missing M.2 slot. The most impressive addition to the Raspberry Pi 5 by far was the PCIe Gen 2 connector, which brought NVMe drives and AI accelerators to the Raspberry Pi ecosystem. Therefore, it is disappointing that there is no way to connect M.2 SSDs to the Raspberry Pi 500, especially since there is an unsoldered M.2 socket on the board.
Also, I would have preferred a keyboard with improved tactile feedback. The cheap membrane keyboard on the Raspberry Pi 400 is the only major drawback to an otherwise great portable computer. However, I understand that there is a certain price point to be met.
More superficially, I’m partial to the red and white color scheme of the Pi 400 and wish they kept that for the Pi 500 (or at least for a later variant).
The Raspberry Pi 500 is slightly more expensive than the Pi 400, at $90 for the keyboard (and a 32GB SD card) and $120 for the desktop kit with a mouse, official power supply, display cable, and a beginner’s guide.
Despite its flaws, the Raspberry Pi 500 is a great keyboard computer with a lot of computing power for its size and price point. It might not find use in many electronics projects, but it is perfect for educational purposes and general computing on the go.
