Good cooling option but blocks Wi-Fi

Good fit and finish. Internal protrusions of the case that touch the processor, RAM, and Ethernet controller. When playing 1080HD files over an Ethernet cable, the processor reports 106F and hasn't seen more than 110F. During more demanding tasks, it heats up. The downside is that being metal, it pretty much blocks Wi-Fi signals.

Pros
  • Made from high quality aluminum
Cons
  • Transparency

This is a great case for my Raspberry Pi. It fits like a glove. Very durable and easy to access different ports on Raspberry Pi. I would definitely buy this product again.

Pros
  • Fits B+, PI2, PI3 Motherboard
Cons
  • Functionality

Better than impossible!

I won't lie, the manufacturer's photo looks like terrible quality. Which of course made me nervous about buying it, but the price was too good to ignore. I'm glad I ended up buying a Blokforge case for my Rasberry Pi 3 instead of other vendors. It looks 100% better than the picture and works as it should, if not better. In addition, the package arrived on time! I'm glad I gave them a chance. I'll add a photo when I get home!

Pros
  • Body design with good heat dissipation
Cons
  • Useless features
