Built-in Wi-Fi: The Raspberry Pi model 3 version has 2.4GHz 802.11n Wi-Fi which works very well with the latest version of any default operating system.

Easy Setup: This single board has an easy setup. The documentation has all the details on installing this and is known as Raspbian. The steps involved are so easy that even a beginner can follow it

It can act as a complete multimedia center: Using Raspberry Pi you can easily create a fully functional home media streaming station. All a user needs to do is to get Model B up to a Full HD monitor with good speakers. The Bluetooth present on this board will enable wireless sound continuously. Post this you can download your favorite applications like Youtube, Netflix, etc. Once this is done your multimedia system is ready for use. Once all the setup is done this can be accessed from Android and iOS applications.

GPIO functionality: This chip enables 28 GPIO pins plus 12 power and ground pins to be used in a project. There are a few special protocols which Raspberry supports. These include IIC (Inter-Integrated Circuit), SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) and UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver-Transmitter). This functionality enables Raspberry to connect with various devices which results in better functionalities.

New Version provides good Chromium browser: The new browser provides a web browser which comes with flash and pdf handling services. It does not require much RAM like 1 GB and it will work fine.

Extendable hardware: Beaglebone provides 92 expansion pins with 46 pin female connectors on both sides of a board. It also provides 6 serial pins which can be used for debugging.

GPIO Real-time units (Programmable): Embedded systems allow real-time coprocessors. They ensure system control and fast communication.

Onboard storage: Beagle bone provides the onboard storage of 4GB.In addition to this, it also provides SD card which will provide integrated storage and can boot from withering onboard storage or SD card.
