Today Raspberry Pi announced more price increases for all Pis with LPDDR4 RAM, alongside a 'right-sized' 3GB RAM Pi 4 for $83.75.
The price increases bring the 16GB Pi 5 up to $299.99.

I’m working more with older SBCs and microcontrollers now, and I think that’s the direction many in the hobbyist space are going.
“Buried in the video” isn’t the same as “talked about in the blog.”
