The rpi does not have ddr5, the price makes no sense
Well, that's great, if the price is entirely made up by the Raspi foundation and not actually caused by the massively increased memory fab costs, it means the competition is going to release a much cheaper version any day now and steal the entire market from them.
Well... per the linked comment's thread... they did... by replacing the ddr chips on raspi, and raspi just did the usual walled garden corpo dystopian lockdown. For a full product with a well known name like raspi I guess it will be some years...
Yes as soon as the invisible hand finishes jerking off billionaires, it will get to reducing prices for us
