Last week on Pi Day marked the release of the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ with a slightly higher clocked Cortex-A53 processors, dual-band 802.11ac WiFi, faster Ethernet, and other minor enhancements over its predecessor. I've been spending the past few days putting the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ through its paces the past few days with an array of benchmarks while comparing the performance to other ARM SBCs as well as a few lower-end Intel x86 systems too. Here is all you need to know about the Raspberry Pi 3 B+ performance.Read more: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=raspberrypi-3-bplus&num=1The Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ comes in at the usual $35 USD price point. I was able to buy a unit for testing shortly after launch from Adafruit, but to little surprise a few days later most of the retailers are already out-of--stock on the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ or at some are not yet stocked in the first place... The challenge of new Raspberry Pi launches often seems to be the availability.
I think the time has finally arrived that I should pick one of these up to tinker with.

This was quite interesting
I would have to say for the money the pi B+ is the cats ass. You know I am now going to have to redo some projects to make use of the faster performance. :)
Thanks for the write up.
The reviews online have been good. But I think we should give some more time for a more holistic review and feedback.
As for the stalls out of stock, Lol. Lets hope it's not a trick for more sales by the retailers.
They are a great little device, need to get one too. :)
