There are several reasons why a Raspberry Pi is better for telecommuting than a PC. The first is that its design is very compact and with the right housing it can be installed behind the monitor. Another of its strengths is that it can be taken anywhere, since it hardly takes up space. It is also an extremely low consumption system, which will allow us to save on electricity. And finally, it is a very versatile device that offers us an infinite world of possibilities beyond teleworking and browsing.
Raspberry Pi 4 8 GB, a luxury option
More and more people are opting for one of these compact cards, with everything to have them as their main PC. They offer plenty of power for telecommuting, browsing or as a media center. One of its great strengths is its low consumption, which will allow us to save on the electricity bill.

The Raspberry Pi 4 is not bad in terms of connectivity. two micro-HDMI ports which support video in 4K resolution, in case we want to work with two screens. It has a 3.5 mm jack connector, two USB 3.0 ports, two USB 2.0 ports and a Gigabit Ethernet port. If that doesn’t seem like much to you, it has support for WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 5.0. Power is supplied via a USB-C port, so a smartphone charger is more than enough.
It has two issues, the Raspberry Pi 4 8 GB. The first is that the ideal is to install a Linux-based operating system. We can install a Lite version of Windows 10, but it can be a bit cumbersome. We shouldn’t have any problems with Linux, as device compatibility is high. Regarding software, as alternatives to Microsoft Office we have Open Office and Libre Office, which are very complete and have nothing to envy to the Microsoft suite.
The biggest problem is the price of these handhelds. Due to supply and transport problems, its price has doubled, which is double the price of a few months ago.
Digitalkey Alloy Case for Raspberry Pi
Really having a box to house our Raspberry Pi is optional, but it’s interesting. The first reason is for refrigeration, as it will help to work at a better temperature. In addition, this chosen box allows the VESA mountingor what amounts to the same, we can hide it behind our screen or our monitor.
This box comes with passive heatsinks for the CPU, memory, network controller, and USB ports. In addition, it has a fan that helps reduce the temperature of these components. With this we will ensure that there are no temperature problems and that the performance is always the best.
As we said, what this box allows is to install our Raspberry Pi behind the screen. This leaves the worktop quite uncluttered. The box is compatible with VESA 75 × 75 and 100 × 100 supports, being compatible with any monitor and even TV on the market.
Samsung Evo Plus 128GB microSD card
The Raspberry Pi 4 usually comes with a memory card, but this one is very small in capacity. It is always interesting to choose to buy a 128 GB memory card, have enough space to install the operating system and the utilities needed for teleworking.
We chose this Samsung microSD memory because it meets the minimum recommended capacity and because it comes from a recognized manufacturer. In addition, this memory card offers us read speeds of up to 100 MB/swhich is within more than acceptable values.
Trust the Ymo keyboard and mouse set
This set of Trust peripherals is one of the best and cheapest options on the market. It has been specifically designed for office automation and telecommuting functions. It has multimedia and office keys, and is also liquid resistant.
It is characterized by being a very quiet keyboard, to avoid disturbances as much as possible while we are working. It has 13 function keys specific to office automation and multimedia. The keyboard has an adjustable angle design as needed.
Regarding the mouse, it has a button that allows you to vary the scrolling speed according to the preconfigured profiles. It has rubber sides to prevent it from slipping while we use it.
It comes with a Bluetooth USB adapter to connect the two devices. This is perhaps one of the best keyboard and mouse combinations you can find on the telecommuting market.
