Single-board computers deals: the real ones

We check UK prices for every single-board computer we've reviewed every hour, and compare each one with what it has actually sold for, not the shop's “was” price. One only shows here as a deal if it's genuinely cheaper than usual.

Price history is still building: drops show here once we've tracked a price for a week

Real price drops right now

We list genuine drops here once we've tracked each price for at least a week, so a deal is measured against what it really sold for. Until then, use the prices below as your guide.

Not on sale yet? The price worth waiting for

Our top 2 picks, what they usually cost, and the price we'd call a good deal.

Before you buy single-board computers in a sale

How do you know a deal is real?

We check UK prices for every single-board computer we've reviewed every hour and keep the history. A price counts as a drop only when it's below what the product has actually sold for over the last month, not below a shop's "was" price, which is often made up.

What else do I need to buy?

Budget for a proper power supply, a case with cooling, and storage. A board on its own rarely works out cheaper than you think once those are added.

Is a single-board computer or a mini PC better?

A single-board computer uses less power and has pins for electronics projects. A mini PC is faster, has more ports, and often costs only a little more once you add the extras.

“Usually” is the median of the lowest daily UK price over the last month, or the typical price we found when researching a product we haven't tracked for a week yet. Prices change, so check the price and delivery date with the shop before you buy. Links to retailers may earn us a commission, which never affects which product we pick.
