Raspberry Pi Zero-W Starter Kit

This is an extremely affordable single-board computer. It offers a complete computing experience, costing less than any Arduino controller board with a 32-bit processor, and comes with built-in WiFi and Bluetooth.

While it’s not a fully functioning computer out of the box, you do have the essential motherboard. The new Raspberry Pi Zero W provides all the advantages of the Pi Zero, with a significant upgrade: integrated Wireless (WiFi and Bluetooth). Specifically, it includes a BCM43143 WiFi chip built into the board, similar to the Pi 3, eliminating the need for external WiFi adapters. It also features Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), making it an excellent choice for IoT projects, although BLE support is still being developed on the software side.

The Raspberry Pi Zero W is a super-compact, highly customizable, and ultra-low-cost computer. This version includes built-in WiFi and Bluetooth, and it is the original product from Raspberrypi.org, not a clone.

Powered by a BCM2835 (32-bit ARM-based processor) SoC running at 1GHz, the Raspberry Pi Zero W is faster than the Raspberry Pi 1. It features mini-HDMI, micro-B OTG USB, and the same 40-pin GPIO, offering great connectivity. However, you’ll likely need some accessories to connect it to your existing devices.

The best part is that the Raspberry Pi Zero W maintains the same shape, connectors, and mounting holes as the Pi Zero, ensuring 99% compatibility with existing cases and accessories. However, if you have a case with a metal top, there might be some issues with the WiFi chip.

While it’s an attractive option, remember that you will need additional accessories to get it running, at the very least a USB adapter and a microSD card.
