CutiePi tablet is a 100% open source Raspberry Pi 4 tablet powered by the Compute Module 4. It has a 5000mAh li-po battery, an 8 inch multi-touch display with 1280 x 800 resolution, and a handle that also doubles as a stand.

The tablet also has a built-in gyroscope, a rear-view camera, a microphone and a speaker, you can simply carry or use it like your everyday gadgets.

• Charge your CutiePi after unboxing - Make sure you're using a regular 5V 3A power supply, as some fast charger for phones may not work
• Update your SD card - Follow the System Flashing Guide to download and flash the latest system

• Telegram group chat - For community, support, or software related questions
• Mail to [email protected] - For any non-software related questions

• Power On: Press and hold for 3s till the backlight turns on, release the power button
• Sleep/Wake: Short press on the power button
• Force Shutdown: Press and hold the power button for 10s till the backlight turns off

When in doubt of the hardware status, we recommend doing a power cycle: force shutdown (press and hold for 10s), release, then power on.

Do not be alarmed if the back of the CutiePi gets hot:

• This is by design. This means that the heat sink is doing its job
• If you wish, you may cool down CutiePi by by adjusting the Power Mode in the Settings

Just like Raspberry Pi, the CutiePi's OS runs on a micro SD card:

• The SD card slot is located in the lower right corner of the device
• It is spring loaded, and can be released with a gentle push
• Insert the card face down
