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.
