Raspberry Pi has announced Raspberry Pi Zero W, a new variant of the Raspberry Pi Zero with integrated wireless LAN and Bluetooth for just $10.

The tiny computer uses the same Cypress CYW43438 wireless chip as Raspberry Pi 3 Model B to provide 802.11n wireless LAN and Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity.

We imagine you’ll find all sorts of uses for Zero W. It makes a better general-purpose computer because you’re less likely to need a hub: if you’re using Bluetooth peripherals you might well end up with nothing at all plugged into the USB port. And of course it’s a great platform for experimenting with IoT applications.

The full feature list for Zero W:
● 1GHz, single-core CPU
● 512MB RAM
● Mini-HDMI port
● Micro-USB On-The-Go port
● Micro-USB power
● HAT-compatible 40-pin header
● Composite video and reset headers
● CSI camera connector
● 802.11n wireless LAN
● Bluetooth 4.0
