A bundle built around the Raspberry Pi 3A+, the compact single-board computer with a 1.4GHz quad-core CPU, 512MB of RAM, dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.2. The kit adds the core accessories so you can power it up and start a project without hunting for parts. Its main limitation is the single USB port on the board, so you need a hub or a keyboard that acts as one. It suits beginners and small projects better than the Pi 5 or Zero 2 kits, which offer more performance or a smaller footprint.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 from 19 ratings. Buyers treat it as a tidy way to get a compact Pi running quickly, with the single USB port the recurring caveat.
The Raspberry Pi 3A+ Starter Kit pairs a compact Raspberry Pi 3 Model A+ board with the core items needed to start a project. The board has a 64-bit quad-core processor running at 1.4 GHz, dual-band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless LAN, and Bluetooth 4.2/BLE.
The microSD card comes pre-loaded with Raspberry Pi OS. The snap-together case has a base and a removable top, so HATs or other GPIO hardware can be added. LED light pipes are built in, and all ports stay accessible.
To set up, connect a screen, keyboard and mouse. The 3A+ has only one USB port. Use a USB hub, or the Official Raspberry Pi Keyboard & Mouse combo, which connects through a single USB connection because the keyboard acts as a hub. The keyboard and mouse are not included.
