Raspberry Pi 5 pre order details
We got to learn more about the Raspberry Pi 5 when it was officially introduced towards the end of September. But how can you get your hands on one early? Well, this was also outlined in this official blog post, which tells us that pre orders went live on September 29th, and will be available up until late October.
One of the best ways of pre ordering is by going directly to the Raspberry Pi Store in person, though this is not really viable for those of you outside the UK. Luckily, there is also a special promotion with the MagPi and HackSpace print magazines which means new subscribers get priority when purchasing, while existing subscribers should already have a unique code sent to them via email.
If you want to pre order elswhere online, you’ll have to head towards the list of Raspberry Pi approved resellers which you can sort by region to find a local store you can pre order at.
Can I pre order Raspberry Pi 5 on Amazon?
While the best way to get your Raspberry Pi 5 pre order is by going through the approved resellers above, Amazon may be an alternative. At the time of writing, we haven’t seen any Raspi 5 listings over on Amazon, but feel free to check via this Amazon link for any changes. We’ll be checking back consistently for pre orders in case they show up last minute.
In the chance that no pre orders become available on Amazon, it’s always worth having a look in late October once the single-board computer actually gets released worldwide and becomes more easily available, though resellers may up the price when selling on Amazon.
