The ZX Spectrum +3 was released on the 16th of May 1987. It is a significant redesign from the original [[ZX Spectrum 128K|"Toastrack" 128K]] and [[ZX Spectrum +2|Grey +2]] models, with additional memory paging capabilities to support [[CP/M]] and additional ROM containing the [[+3DOS]] disc operating system code. The +3 has an integrated 3" single sided floppy disc drive.

The "Black +2" appeared soon after with an integrated tape drive. Housed in a slightly modified version of the +2 case moulding cast in black plastic instead of grey.
