Lower prices for 4GB and 8GB Compute Module 4
At Raspberry Pi, our mission is to make computing accessible and affordable for everyone and for businesses at every scale, so today we’re delighted to announce a reduction in the price of some of the most popular variants of Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4. From now, if you buy a standard operating temperature Compute Module 4 from a Raspberry Pi Approved Reseller, it will cost you $5 less for a 4GB RAM variant, and $10 less for an 8GB RAM variant.

Broader access to a proven platform
Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 is the cornerstone of an astonishing variety of applications, from medical equipment to energy services infrastructure and from concrete monitoring to retro gaming. There is a vast number of embedded use cases that don’t require the processing heft of our new (ish) Compute Module 5; by lowering the cost of the higher-memory-density variants of its predecessor, we aim to make these projects more cost-effective, and to unlock new ones that previously weren’t viable. We hope the price drop will introduce new possibilities both for businesses and for enthusiasts, helping you bring into existence products and projects we’d never even imagined.
Here’s a quick overview of the new pricing:

More room to innovate, same trusted performance
Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 continues to offer the same powerful features that have made it a favourite with designers and developers: with its quad-core Arm Cortex-A72 processor, extensive I/O capabilities, and flexible form factor, it remains the perfect choice for a wide range of applications. We hope that these new lower prices will make it a little bit easier to get your hands on the hardware you need.

Delighted to see a price cut in these uncertain times – can you say how you achieved this?.

In all honesty, having CM5 boards with higher price than standard pi5 does not make any sense… there are only two bottom side connectors, which would make this board cheaper to manufacture than pi5 with USBs, LAN, header etc… , so it is beyond me why it is more expensive. Pi5 8GB – 86 EUR, cm5 8GM wifi no eMMC 92 Eur… that is ridiculous. Comparing from official reseller rpishop.cz

Well, it makes perfect sense for a company to keep prices up if there is enough demand.
But yes, unless one wants to pay more for the flexibility/size of CM5 the Pi5 is a better deal. CM4 had an advantage over Pi4 with the free pci-e bus, Pi5 now has it too so one less reason for CM5 vs Pi5.

Wow, that would be nice. BTW, pricing table in https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/cm5/cm5-product-brief.pdf does not reflect these new prices.

Are you really talking about CM5? The article is about CM4 and the prices you mention are same as lower prices for CM4 listed in the article. Was CM5 really discounted to same lower price as CM4? And BTW you mentioned CM5 wifi, 4GB, no emmc for $55, That one is actually listed for $60 in the CM5 product brief.
