This is the first release of Raspberry Pi Zero and doesn't have onboard Wifi or BLE.

The Raspberry Pi Zero features a BCM2835 chipset, overclocked to 1Ghz with 512MB RAM, and the same 1080p video output, so there's plenty of oomph in that little board. It also features the same 40 pin GPIO layout as the Raspberry Pi 2/B /A , which you'll need to solder your own headers to. With it's small form factor and reduction in connectors, the Raspberry Pi Zero only uses ~ 140mA at 5V!

Unlike it's larger brothers and sisters, the Raspberry Pi Zero has an unpopulated GPIO, unpopulated composite (RCA) header and an unpopulated reset header. There's also no DSI screen port, no ethernet, no analogue audio and no full sized USB ports. Instead, the Pi Zero features a micro-USB power port, a micro USB OTG host port (for peripherals e.g. WiFi dongle), and a mini HDMI port for video.

Take it further

If your new Raspberry Pi 4 is not displaying anything, but is booting:
Please change the following settings in the /boot/config.txt setting. You can access these settings in a few ways.

1. Using another display to access the file:   sudo nano /boot/config.txt
2. Insert the SD card into a computer/laptop and open the boot partition

Uncomment and change or add to the bottom of the file:

hdmi_safe=1
hdmi_force_hotplug=1
hdmi_ignore_edid=0xa5000080
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=81 (or 39 this will depend on the type of display)
config_hdmi_boost=9
dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d
max_framebuffers=2

Not all of these settings may be necessary, this will again depend on your type of display, however adding them all and removing one by one will help find the ones you may need.
