📰 Raspberry Pi 6 won’t arrive before 2028 – and is skipping an NPU
The Raspberry Pi 6 won’t be released before 2028 and won’t feature an onboard NPU to handle AI compute when it does. Insight into their plans for the Pi 6 and when it’ll arrive were shared by three of the company’s key engineers and leaders in an AMA (ask me anything) session on Reddit on 21 May, 2026. Based on past launches the gap between major Pi models (Raspberry Pi 2, 3, 4 and 5) is around 3-4 years. The Raspberry Pi 5 launched in 2023.
