树莓派（Raspberry Pi）宣布了又一轮涨价，这次将16GB内存版本的Pi 5价格提高了80美元，目前的售价已超过其最初上市价格的三倍。
Raspberry Pi has announced yet another round of price hikes, this time adding $80 to the cost of its 16GB Pi 5, which now sells for more than three times its original launch price.
最新的一次涨价由树莓派负责人埃本·厄普顿（Eben Upton）宣布，使得16GB版本的Pi 5价格高达385美元。16GB的计算模块5（Compute Module 5）变体价格也上涨了40美元，不过拥有相同内存容量的Raspberry Pi 500+则躲过了这一轮涨价。
The latest bump, announced by Raspberry Pi boss Eben Upton, takes the 16GB Pi 5 to a whopping $385. The 16GB Compute Module 5 variants are also getting $40 more expensive, although the Raspberry Pi 500+, which packs the same amount of RAM, has escaped this particular round.
厄普顿将此归咎于一个熟悉的罪魁祸首：飙升的内存成本，而16GB动态随机存取内存（DRAM）缺乏替代供应商以及其他组件持续短缺的情况使这一问题更加恶化。
Upton blamed a familiar culprit: soaring memory costs, worsened by a lack of alternative suppliers for 16GB DRAM and ongoing shortages of other components.
厄普顿写道：“不幸的是，16GB动态随机存取内存缺乏替代供应，加上其他持续的组件短缺，意味着我们现在需要对一些最高密度的产品进一步提价。”
"Unfortunately, a lack of alternative supply for 16GB DRAM, compounded by other ongoing component shortages, means we now need to make further price increases on some of our highest-density products," Upton wrote.
对于树莓派客户来说，这正变成一种昂贵的习惯。16GB版本的Pi 5在2025年1月推出时售价为120美元，现在看来几乎可以说是合理的价格了。树莓派在12月增加了25美元，2月又增加了60美元，4月又增加了100美元。加上今天的80美元涨幅，买家被要求比不到两年前多掏265美元，涨幅达221%。
It's becoming an expensive habit for Raspberry Pi customers. The 16GB Pi 5 cost $120 when it launched in January 2025, which seems almost reasonable now. Raspberry Pi added $25 in December, another $60 in February, and a further $100 in April. With today's $80 increase, buyers are being asked to cough up $265 more than they were less than two years ago, a price hike of 221 percent.
而距离树莓派将2GB版本的Pi 4和Pi 5型号价格各自提高12.50美元、使其分别达到67.50美元和77.50美元，也才刚刚过去一个月。
And it's barely been a month since Raspberry Pi raised prices on its 2GB Pi 4 and Pi 5 models by $12.50 apiece, taking them to $67.50 and $77.50 respectively.
尽管树莓派在9月报告了创纪录的上半年业绩，但仍一再进行加价。营收跃升90%，达到2亿5690万美元，毛利润增长79%，达到5940万美元。每块电路板的毛利润攀升53%，达到12.20美元，这在一定程度上得益于在内存价格暴涨之前采购的内存。库存优势此后已基本消失。
The repeated markups come despite Raspberry Pi reporting record first-half results in September. Revenue jumped 90 percent to $256.9 million, while gross profit rose 79 percent to $59.4 million. Gross profit per board climbed 53 percent to $12.20, helped partly by memory purchased before prices went through the roof. That stockpile advantage has since largely disappeared.
对于不愿为单板计算机支付近400美元的客户，厄普顿建议购买内存较小的产品、使用旧版树莓派，或者优化应用程序以适应较少的内存。他还警告说，一些卖家正在利用短缺情况，收取虚高的价格或提供与实际不符的产品，并敦促客户坚持购买经批准的经销商的产品。
For customers unwilling to pay nearly $400 for a single-board computer, Upton advises buying something with less RAM, using an older Pi, or optimizing applications to make do with less memory. He also warned that some sellers are exploiting the shortages by charging inflated prices or offering products that aren't what they appear to be, urging customers to stick to approved resellers.
他说：“我们知道，有一些不法分子一直在利用当前的内存供应环境，以虚高的价格出售树莓派产品，或者转手与实际不符的产品。”显然也有一些好消息，树莓派继续坚称这些涨价是暂时的。
“We’re aware that a few bad actors have been taking advantage of the current memory supply circumstances to sell Raspberry Pi products at inflated prices or shift products that aren’t what they seem,” he said. There is, apparently, some good news, as Raspberry Pi continues to insist the increases are temporary.
厄普顿写道：“正如我们从一开始所说的那样，当前的内存市场环境虽然困难但终究是暂时的，我们期待着当内存成本再次下降时，取消我们的价格上涨。”n这可能需要漫长的等待。美光（Micron）此前曾警告称，内存短缺可能会拖延到2028年甚至更久，因此任何希望再次看到120美元的Pi 5的人可能不应该抱太大希望。®
"As we've said from the beginning, the current memory landscape is difficult but ultimately temporary, and we look forward to rolling back our price increases when memory costs fall once again," Upton wrote. That could be a long wait. Micron has previously warned that memory shortages could drag on into 2028 or beyond, so anyone hoping to see a $120 Pi 5 again probably shouldn't hold their breath. ®
