Questions tagged [pi-3]

For questions that apply specifically to the Raspberry Pi 3 and not other/all models.

This tag is intended for questions that are applicable to the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B which features a quad-core ARM A8 processor (64-bits) with the same 1GB of RAM and GPIO as the Pi 2 Model B, on-board Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
