The Argon40 ONE UP is a modular laptop powered by a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5, and according to this review, it's pretty good at what it does. But due to rising component prices you can get a much faster laptop with an Intel or AMD chip for less money. https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2026/the-first-good-raspberry-pi-laptop/#fn:1 #Argon40OneUp #Argon40 #RaspberryPi #RaspberryPiCM5 #JeffGeerling
The first good Raspberry Pi Laptop

Ever since the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 was introduced, I wondered why nobody built a decent laptop chassis around it. You could swap out a low spec CM5 for a higher spec, and get an instant computer upgrade. Or, assuming a CM6 comes out someday in the same form factor, the laptop chassis could get an entirely new life with that upgrade.

Raspberry Pi CM5-powered Argon One laptop is now shipping to Kickstarter backers

The Argon ONE UP is a modular laptop with a 14 inch FHD+ display, a 55 Wh battery, and an M.2 slot for an SSD. What makes the Argon ONE UP unlike most laptops though is that it has a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 for brains.

Argon Forty launched a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign for the Argon ONE UP last summer, and now the company has begun shipping the laptop to backers. Folks who missed […]

Lilbits: Google breathes (a little) more life into the Pixel Tablet

The Google Pixel Tablet launched in mid-2023 as an Android tablet that you could also use as a smart display when paired with a speaker dock. With an 11 inch, 2.5K display, stylus support, and the same Google Tensor G2 processor used in the Pixel 7 smartphone lineup, it could have paved the way for things to come.

But Google hasn’t released a new model in more than two and a half years. And […]

Sentinal Core is a mini ITX I/O board for the Raspberry Pi CM5 (crowdfunding)

The Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 is tiny computer on a module with a quad-core Arm Cortex-A76 processor and up to 16GB of LPDDR4 memory, 64GB of eMMC storage, and optional support for WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 5.0, plus plenty of I/O capabilities. But it doesn’t actually have any full-sized ports, and needs to be plugged into a carrier board for actual use.

While there’s no shortage of boards […]

Raspberry Pi has quietly updated the CM5 IO board and case so that it's possible to use both a heat sink and fan at the same time (previously you could only fit one or the other). https://www.hackster.io/news/raspberry-pi-revises-the-compute-module-5-io-board-io-case-designs-for-better-cooling-276c70513415 #RaspberryPi #RaspberryPiCM5 #RaspberryPiCM5IOBoard
Raspberry Pi Revises the Compute Module 5 IO Board, IO Case Designs for Better Cooling

Fresh new Rev. 2 models address a flaw in the original designs, and finally let you mount both the heatsink and fan at the same time.

This DIY dual-screen handheld game console is powered by a Raspberry Pi CM5

There are a growing number of options for folks looking to purchase a handheld game console with a dual-screen design. But why buy one when you can make your own?

The DSpi is a handheld with a clamshell design, two small screens, and an open source design – you can’t actually buy one, but you can find design files, software, and a parts list in the developer’s GitHub page for the […]

CM5 MINIMA is a tiny $65 Raspberry Pi CM5 carrier board with M.2, Ethernet, and HDMI

The credit card-sized Raspberry Pi Model B line of computers may be small, at just 85 x 56mm. But the Raspberry Compute Module 5 is even smaller, measuring just 55 x 40mm. Unfortunately this tiny computer-on-a-module isn’t much use on its own, because it lacks the full-sized ports you’d need to connect a power source, display, keyboard, or other peripherals.

Instead the Raspberry Pi CM5 has a […]
