As the trickle of Raspberry Pi slowly becomes a stream in 2023, you now have a better chance of securing a Raspberry Pi for as little as $5 (for
the Raspberry Pi Zero) or more likely from $35 (for the Raspberry Pi 4 1GB). Once your have your Raspberry Pi, you'll need a few extra products
to make the most of it. There's a whole world of accessories that help you make the most of the Raspberry Pi's GPIO. There are accessories
which have been around since the Raspberry Pi was released, when it had just 26 GPIO pins (but don't worry as many of them will still work with
newer models). Every week it seems that there are new accessories for our favorite single board computer. Using special add-on boards (HATs)
we can take advantage of the Raspberry Pi's now standard 40 pin GPIO to control and interact with electronic components and create diverse
projects such as robotics, machine learning and IoT and even our own home server.
As with any computer, you’ll need a way to enter data and a way to see the interface, which usually means getting a keyboard, a mouse and a
monitor. However, you can opt for a headless Raspberry Pi install, which allows you to remote control the Pi from your PC. In that case, the
minimum requirements are:
microSD card of at least 8GB, but the best Raspberry Pi microSD cards have 32GB or more. When you first set up a Raspberry Pi, you need
to “burn” the OS onto it by using a PC, another Raspberry Pi or even a phone with microSD card reader.
https://www.tomshardware.com/best-picks/best-raspberry-pi-accessories 1/22
Power supply: For the Raspberry Pi 4, you need a USB-C power source that provides at least 3 amps / 5 volts, but for other Raspberry Pis,
you need a micro USB connection that offers at least 2.5 amps and the same 5 volts. Your power supply provides power to both the Pi and any
attached HATs and USB devices, so always look for supplies that can provide a higher amperage at 5 volts as this will give you a little headroom
to safely power your projects.
In addition, there are a number of accessory and add-on types that protect your Pi, add new features and make everything a lot more useful
and fun. These include:
Cases: The best Raspberry Pi cases give you style, functionality and durability.
HATs (aka add-on boards): The best Raspberry Pi HATs let you do everything from adding motors to creating LED light shows.
Breakout Boards: To breakout the GPIO for easier access or to use via a breadboard. Essential for the new Raspberry Pi 400.
Camera Modules: The Raspberry Pi has its own special camera port and there's a whole ecosystem of compatible camera modules for it.
Cooling: Raspberry Pi 4 models in particular can get hot so fans and heatsinks help.
Electronic parts: You can make great projects and have a lot of fun with motors, sensors, transistors and other bits and bobs. Just don't
forget your breadboard!
USB Drives: The Raspberry Pi 4 can boot from a USB hard drive / SSD giving us a speed boost, and a cheap means to add additional storage.
Overall, these are the best Raspberry Pi accessories that we have tested. No matter what your needs or project, you’ll definitely need some of
these.

1. Compute Blade  


Best Compute Module 4 Carrier Board
TODAY'S BEST DEALS
Compute Blade Site
REASONS TO BUY
+ Small form factor
+ SSD slot
+ PoE USB C
+ Passive Cooling
REASONS TO AVOID
- Limited GPIO
The Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 is a highly coveted board. It packs the best features of the Raspberry Pi 4, and onboard eMMC storage into
a smaller package. The problem is that we need a carrier board in order to actually use it. There have been many carrier boards, but Uptime
Lab’s Compute Blade is a “server on a stick”.
The form factor is long and narrow, the blade from which it is named. In this form factor we have space for an NVMe SSD, HDMI, USB A and C.
Limited GPIO is the only issue here, but then if you are wanting to use this in the data center, connecting a load of LEDs is low down on your list
of requirements. Onboard Gigabit Ethernet and additional micro SD storage make the Compute Blade a versatile board for Compute Module 4
and Lite variants.
The red anodized aluminum heat sink keeps the Compute Module 4’s SoC and RAM cool, while looking good. A fan header at the rear of the unit
is designed to plug straight into a compatible fan, blowing air over the blade’s length.
In our review we determined that the Compute Blade is made for high density cluster computing, and it has been incredibly well thought out.
Its design is based on function, with the form accommodating all of the features that we crave.

REASONS TO BUY
+ Attractive aluminum design
+ Easy access to GPIO pins
+ Passive cooling
+ Sliding magnetic cover
REASONS TO AVOID
- Must remove cover to get to pins
The top overall choice on our round-up of the best Raspberry Pi Cases, the Argon Neo combines great looks with plenty of flexibility and
competent passive cooling. This mostly-aluminum (bottom is plastic) case for the Raspberry Pi 4 features a magnetic cover that slides off to
provide access to the GPIO pins with enough clearance to attach a HAT, along with the ability to connect cables to the camera and display ports.
The microSD card slot, USB and micro HDMI out ports are easy to access at all times.
With the cover on or off, the Argon Neo provides solid passive cooling capability as an included thermal pad connects the Raspberry Pi 4's CPU
to an aluminum plate to dissipate heat. You can also attach an optional fan HAT for active cooling. At just $15, this case is extremely affordable
but cuts no corners.
3. Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera  

View at PiShop.us
REASONS TO BUY
+ Great image quality
+ Interchangeable Lenses
+ Tripod mountable
REASONS TO AVOID
- Expensive
- Doesn't come with lens
It doesn't come cheap, but the official Raspberry Pi High Quality camera offers the best image quality of any Pi camera by far, along with the
ability to mount it on a tripod. The 12-MP camera doesn't come with a lens, but supports any C or CS lens, which means you can choose from
an entire ecosystem of lenses, with prices ranging from $16 up to $50 or more and a variety of focal lengths and F-stop settings. We tested the
High Quality camera with two lenses, one designed for close up shots, the other for more distant, the image quality was a massive
improvement over the standard Raspberry Pi camera.
The Raspberry Pi High Quality camera plugs into the same CSI port on the Raspberry Pi as any other Pi camera module, but unlike the others,
this one has a ¼ inch screw hole that allows you to attach it to any standard tripod or camera mount. If you care about image quality, the
Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera is a must-have.

4. Raspberry Pi Camera Module V2  


Best Affordable Raspberry Pi Camera
TODAY'S BEST DEALS
View at Amazon
View at Amazon
REASONS TO BUY
+ Good image quality
+ Affordable price
REASONS TO AVOID
- No tripod mounting
If you need a Raspberry Pi camera, but don't want to spend more than $50 on the high quality module and then have to bring your own lens,
the official Raspberry Pi Camera Module V2 is the one to get. This 8-MP camera uses a Sony IMX219 sensor that gives it really solid image
quality, records video at up 1080p, 30 fps and is a big improvement over the 5-MP OmniVision OV5647 that was in the V1 camera.
There are a number of third-party Raspberry Pi camera modules on the market, with some costing around $10 or less. However, most of these
use the older, OV5647 sensor which provides far worse image quality.
5. Lenovo ThinkPad TrackPoint Keyboard II  


Best Keyboard for Raspberry Pi
TODAY'S BEST DEALS
View at Amazon
REASONS TO BUY
+ Best-in-class typing experience
+ Trackpoint for navigation
+ Both 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth wireless
+ Long battery life
REASONS TO AVOID
- Expensive
Whether you want to control your Raspberry Pi from the couch or you have it on a table and don't want to waste space, getting one of the best
wireless keyboards is a good idea. It's particularly helpful to have a wireless keyboard with a pointing device so you don't need to also drag
around a mouse.
Lenovo's ThinkPad TrackPoint Keyboard II is the best keyboard for Raspberry Pi thanks to its excellent key feel, multiple connectivity options
and built-in TrackPoint pointing stick. The keyboard looks and types just like those on Lenovo's ThinkPad line of business laptops, offering
plenty of tactile feedback and a deep (for a non-mechanical), 1.8mm of key travel. The TrackPoint pointing stick sits between the G and H keys,
allowing you to navigate around the Raspberry Pi's desktop, without even lifting your hands off of the home row.
The Thinkpad TrackPoint II has both 2.4-GHz (via a dongle) and Bluetooth connectivity which you can toggle between using a hardware switch.
So, if you have two Raspberry Pis or one Pi and one PC, you can switch back and forth with ease. Charging via USB-C, the keyboard promises up
to two months of battery life on a charge.

6. Raspberry Pi 4 Official Power Supply

Best Raspberry Pi Power Supply
TODAY'S BEST DEALS
View at Amazon
REASONS TO BUY
+ Provides just the right amount of power
+ Built for Pi
REASONS TO AVOID
- No on/off switch
- Not the cheapest option
If you're going to use a Raspberry Pi 4, you need a USB-C power supply that offers at least 3 amps of juice with a 5-volt output. We've found that
the best USB-C laptop chargers are capable of delivering this kind of power (albeit often with 4.8 - 4.9 volts, which still works), but if you don't
have a powerful charger handy or need one just for your Pi, the official Raspberry Pi power supply is your best choice.
Rated for 5.1 volts at 3 amps, the official Raspberry Pi 4 power supply has good build quality and a nice design. Available in black or white, it's a
small rectangle, emblazoned with the Raspberry Pi logo and a strong, built-in Type-C cable that's 59 inches (1.5m) long. Unlike some third-party
competitors, it doesn't come with an on / off switch, but it is compatible with cheap on / off adapters you can attach to the end. You may find
competitors for a few dollars less, but the official Raspberry Pi 4 power supply is a sure thing.
If you are shopping for any other Raspberry Pi, including the Raspberry Pi Zero or Raspberry Pi 3 or below, you'll need a power supply that
outputs to a micro-USB port and only requires 2.5 amps and 5 volts. There's also an official Raspberry Pi charger for these older models.
7. Pimoroni Explorer HAT Pro  

View at Amazon
REASONS TO BUY
+ Analog to digital conversion
+ Motor controller
+ LED lights
+ Built-in breadboard
REASONS TO AVOID
- No pass-thru for other HATs
The Raspberry Pi's 40 GPIO pins are arguably its most important feature. Using these pins (see our GPIO pinout), you can attach an entire
universe of electronics, including motors, sensors and lights. There's a huge ecosystem of add-on boards, appropriately called HATs (hardware
attached on top) that plug directly into the GPIO pins and matching the same layout as the Pi. These add on boards give you all kinds of added
functionality, from LED light matrixes to touch screens and motor controllers for robotics projects.
Sitting at the very top of our list of Best Raspberry Pi HATs, each of which has a different purpose, the Pimoroni Explorer HAT Pro provides a
smorgasbord of features that you can use in a wide variety of projects. While the Raspberry Pi doesn't come with an analog to digital converter
like Arduino does (see Raspberry Pi vs Arduino), the Explorer HAT Pro provides four ADCs you can use with joysticks or potentiometers. It also
packs two motor controllers, four colorful LED lights, four touch pads and four crocodile clips for attaching other electronics. Oh and it comes
with a small breadboard you can stick on top and use for mounting and wiring electronics. Every serious Raspberry Pi fan should have one of
these on hand.
8. Pimoroni Fan Shim  

REASONS TO BUY
+ Great cooling
+ HATs go on top of it
REASONS TO AVOID
- Expensive in the US
If you're using a Raspberry Pi 4, you definitely need some kind of cooling, whether it's a heat sink, an aluminum with passive cooling built in or,
best of all, a fan. The Pimoroni Fan Shim is powerful, easy-to-install and unobtrusive. You just push it down onto the left most side of your GPIO
pin header and it does a fantastic job of cooling your Pi. You can even use a Pimoroni Fan Shim on a Raspberry Pi 4 that's been overclocked all
the way to 2.1 GHz, without seeing any throttling.
You can just let the Fan Shim run all the time or you can download Pimoroni's software, which allows you to set temperature thresholds for it.

9. Silicon Power 32GB 3D NAND microSD Card  


Best Raspberry Pi microSD Card
TODAY'S BEST DEALS
View at Amazon
REASONS TO BUY
+ Inexpensive
+ Leading performance
+ White surface you can write on
REASONS TO AVOID
- Slow boot times
Unless you've specifically configured yours to boot from an SSD (see our article on How to Boot Raspberry Pi from USB), every Raspberry Pi uses
a microSD card as its primary storage drive. We maintain a list of the Best microSD cards for Raspberry Pi and have chosen the 32GB Silicon
Power 3D NAND card as the top choice.
Unless you're hosting a media server or have a ridiculous amount of ROMS on a game emulator, a 32GB microSD card provides more than
enough storage for Raspberry Pi OS and a ton of applications. The operating system and preloaded applications take up far less than 8GB by
themselves.
In our tests, the Silicon Power 3D NAND microSD card had the fastest application open times and the best combination of random reads and
writes. Considering that it's also less expensive than most 32GB cards and that its white surface provides a little room for you to write on it (with
marker), this is currently the best card around.
10. GPIO Reference Board

Helpful Accessory
TODAY'S BEST DEALS

View at Amazon
View at Amazon
REASONS TO BUY
+ Helpful reference
+ Cheap
REASONS TO AVOID
- You can look this up online
Each of the Raspberry Pi's 40 GPIO pins has a different function so it's hard to keep track of which does what. For example, some of the pins
provide I2C communication while others offer power and others are just for grounding. You can look at a GPIO pinout guide such as ours, but
sometimes it's just easier to put the list of functions right on top of the pins.
GPIO reference boards are tiny, non-electronic headers that you place on top of the pins to show you which one has which name. There are
many different brands and models for sale and all do pretty much the same thing so there's no need to be picky about which one you buy. Most
have small holes on top that you can use to hang them on a keychain and take them wherever you go.
11. micro HDMI to HDMI Adapters

Must-Have for Pi 4
TODAY'S BEST DEALS
View at Amazon
REASONS TO BUY
+ Very helpful and work well
REASONS TO AVOID
- You still need an HDMI cable
While most of the earlier Raspberry Pi models have a single, full-size HDMI port, the Raspberry Pi 4 has dual micro HDMI ports that can each
output to a monitor at up to 4K resolution. While there's a good chance you already have one or more HDMI cables lying around the house,
most of us don't have micro HDMI cables, because it's a rarely used connector.
To connect the Raspberry Pi 4 to a screen, you'll either need a micro HDMI to HDMI cable or a micro HDMI to HDMI adapter you can connect an
existing cable to. Cable Matters, a well-known and reputable brand, sells a pair of such adapters for just $10. That's much cheaper than a single
micro HDMI to HDMI cable, which goes for $8 to 10 for just one. I've been using these Cable Matters adapters for more than a year now and
they've worked really well.
12. Electronics Kit with Breadboard, Wires
TODAY'S BEST DEALS
View at Amazon
REASONS TO BUY
+ Great for learning
+ Helpful for prototyping
+ No soldering necessary
REASONS TO AVOID
- Empty List
You can use your Raspberry Pi as a game emulator, a server or a desktop PC, but the real fun begins when you start connecting electronics to
its GPIO pins. Of course, to even get started playing with GPIO connectors, you need some interesting things to connect to them such as lights,
sensors and resistors (see resistor color codes).
The market is filled with electronics kits that come with a slew of LED lights, resistors, jumper cables, buttons and other bits and bobs you need
to get started. Most importantly, all of these kits come with at least one breadboard, a white plastic surface filled with holes you can use to
route and test circuits, no soldering required.
There are plenty of good kits from no-name brands on Amazon, but the Freenove LCD 1602 Starter kit caught our eye, because it comes with an
ADC chip for analog-to-digital conversion, an LCD text screen and a GPIO extension board you can use to route all your pins over to the
breadboard at once.
13. USB 3 microSD Card Reader
TODAY'S BEST DEALS
View at Amazon
REASONS TO BUY
+ Need it to read and write
REASONS TO AVOID
- PC with USB port quired
In order to write Raspberry Pi OS (or a different OS) to a microSD card, you'll need some kind of microSD card reader that you can attach to
your PC. Just about any make or model will do as long as it reads SDHC and SDXC cards and, preferably, connects via USB 3.0. I've been using
the Jahovans X USB 3.0 card reader, which currently goes for $5.99, for almost a year now and it has worked really well.
You can also attach a microSD card reader to your Pi and use it to create a disk image backup of your Raspberry Pi.
14. Raspberry Pi Zero Official Case  


Best Case for Raspberry Pi Zero

REASONS TO BUY
+ GPIO Access
+ Camera Access
+ Official Pi design
REASONS TO AVOID
- Can't have both GPIO and Camera at once
We're not huge fans of the Official Raspberry Pi 4 case, because it covers the GPIO pins and camera slots. However, the Official Raspberry Pi
Zero case is a completely different as it comes with three different covers: one which has a camera hole (so you can make a Raspberry Pi body
camera), another which exposes the GPIO pins and a third which covers the whole thing. The official Raspberry Pi Zero case also has the official
burgundy and white colors of the Raspberry Pi Foundation.
15. Pimoroni Flat HAT Hacker  


Easily add HATs to your Raspberry Pi 400
TODAY'S BEST DEALS
Check Amazon
View at Pimoroni Store
REASONS TO BUY
+ Simple to use
+ Clearly labelled GPIO pin
+ Can be used with two pHATs at once
REASONS TO AVOID
- Standoffs required for stability
The Raspberry Pi 400’s big feature is that it is a Raspberry Pi 4 inside of a keyboard. This new layout introduced a challenge, the GPIO is now on
the rear of the case, breaking compatibility with Raspberry Pi HATs but with the Flat HAT Hacker we can restore the functionality and delve into
a rich world of first and third party add ons for robotics, science projects and good old blinking LEDs! In our review we found that the board is
easy to install, and requires no additional software. If you have a Raspberry Pi 400, this is a no brainer purchase.
