+Raspberry Pi Zero vs Zero W: What’s the Difference?
+======
+
+Raspberry Pi created a revolution when it launched the $25 mini computer ten years ago. Over the time, several variants of Raspberry Pi have been launched. Some upgrade a previous model and some are crafted for specific purposes.
+
+Of all the Raspberry models, Pi Zero and Pi Zero W are the cheapest ones aimed for small scale and IoT projects. Both devices are almost similar to each other but with a subtle and important difference.
+
+**So, what is the difference between Raspberry Pi Zero and Zero W? The W in Zero W stands for Wireless and it depicts its wireless capability over the Pi Zero model. That’s the single biggest difference between the two similar models.**
+
+Let’s take a look at a bit more in detail.
+
+### Key Difference Between Pi Zero and Pi Zero W
+
+![][1]
+
+While Raspberry Pi Zero was built with a goal that provides more utility with half of the size of the A+ board.
+
+And, Raspberry Pi Zero W was introduced later to include wireless connectivity built-in without needing a separate accessory/module to enable Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.
+
+This is the key difference between the two with the rest of the specifications remaining identical.
+
+So, if you want the support for:
+
+  * 802.11 b/g/n wireless LAN
+  * Bluetooth 4.1
+  * Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)
+
+
+
+Raspberry Pi Zero W will be the definite choice to go with.
+
+Also, Raspberry Pi Zero W offers a variant with header pins included which is “Raspberry Pi Zero WH”.

+
+### Raspberry Pi Zero and Raspberry Pi Zero W Specifications
+
+![Raspberry Pi Zero W][6]
+
+The [specifications for Raspberry Pi Zero W][7] and Zero are almost identical.
+
+You get a 1 GHz single-core CPU coupled with 512 MB RAM. For connectivity, you get a mini HDMI port, micro USB OTG support, micro USB power, and a CSI Camera connector (to plug in a camera module).
+
+These boards also feature a [HAT][8] (Hardware Attached on Top)-compatible 40 pin header, but generally, without the pins that let you easily plug the interfaces.
+
+You can choose to explore the capabilities using [various Raspberry Pi OS][9] available. In either case, just stick to the Raspberry Pi OS.
+
+### Raspberry Pi Zero series: Is it worth It?
+
+![Raspberry Pi Zero][10]
+
+Raspberry Pi Zero is a single-board computer that is popular for its form factor. Even though you have plenty of [Raspberry Pi zero alternatives][11], Raspberry Pi Zero is the recommended choice for all the good reasons.
+
+Of course, unless you have specific requirements.
+
+In addition to the size of the board, the pricing, power requirement, and processing power are some of the key highlights of this board under **$20**.
+
+So, if you are looking for the essential features under a budget, the Raspberry Zero series should work for you.

+
+The small form factor of the Raspberry Pi Zero W enables a new range of projects. Here are some cool projects you can build with your tiny Raspberry Pi Zero W.
+
+### Is Raspberry Pi Zero series affordable?
+
+Raspberry Pi Zero costs **$5** and the Raspberry Pi Zero W would cost you around **$10**. ****Of course, depending on its availability and region, the cost will differ. If you want the Raspberry Pi Zero W with header pins, it should cost you around **$14**.
+
+There are other devices that can be used as an [alternative to Raspberry Pi Zero][11] and they have similar price tag.
