Meet the new BBC micro:bit v2 - Upgraded with a powerful new processor that has tons more capability and also adds more sensing with a new speaker and microphone!

The latest micro:bit will fit right into your existing lessons and materials; all the existing MakeCode blocks and MicroPython code will work in the same way as they do on the original micro:bit. More features, including easy ways to take AI and ML into the classroom, will be released throughout 2021.

It's the same size and shape as the original micro:bit so you can use the same accessories you already own.

Some new features of the board:

• A more powerful Nordic nRF52833 processor, lots more RAM and Flash so MicroPython works a lot better!
• A MEMS microphone, can hear the world around it
• A speaker, provide audio feedback, play tones
• Capacitive touch sensor, the logo now acts as a button you can boop!
• Power saving mode, double click the reset button to enter low power mode.

Note: This is just the micro:bit board, no extras. We also have a Go pack version with AAA batteries and battery holder and a Club 10-Pack for classrooms and workshops.
