The Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W is a direct replacement and an upgrade to the popular Raspberry Pi Zero W. It adds the new RP3A0 custom chip package that brings in more horsepower, up to 5 times performance improvement compared to the original Pi Zero.
The Raspberry Pi Zero family is the smallest, slimmest and lowest cost Raspberry Pi to date. It's about half of the Pi A+ size. It comes with a mini HDMI port for audio/video instead of the regular HDMI port on other models. There is no standard USB port, but there is a micro USB OTG port instead. With a USB OTG cable, you can use a regular USB device with Pi Zero. If you need to use more than one USB device, you can consider to get a USB hub like this that you can plug directly to the micro USB OTG port. The Pi Zero maintains the same GPIO pinout as other models. Like the original Pi Zero, the Pi Zero 2 W has a camera port for the official Raspberry Pi camera board. However, you need to use a different camera cable since is connector is not the same as the other models and the standard cable will not work.
The Pi Zero 2 W uses micro SD card as its main drive/storage. It also uses the same micro USB 5V power supply. Due to the same form factor, the Pi Zero 2 W also fits the existing Pi Zero cases.
