Big performance in a small package

How big is two decks of cards and can it be a media server, internet ad blocker, retro game emulator and more? Raspberry Pi! This model has the best internal memory (RAM) and is one of the fastest versions of the device currently available. Some operating systems (like Raspbian) aren't much more difficult to install and use than Windows and can be quite a learning tool. Those accustomed to Windows might be a little intimidated by the Linux command line, but it's rarely necessary to interact…

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Not as good as it promises

Great little Raspberry Pi 4 kit

First the kit : Honestly, it was everything I hoped for. Easy to assemble, all heatsinks were easy to attach, just needed a bit of GoogleFu for a few small things (fan direction, GPIO pin usage, etc.). The most important thing to know is that this kit has everything you need and the case seems to keep the Pi4b from overheating pretty well. As for the 8GB Pi4b itself, I'm not using a RaspberryPi. As a desktop (my favorite desktop SBC is the Jetson Nano), I bought the 8GB version to run LXD…

Pros
  • Includes a 4GB Raspberry Pi 4 model with a 64-bit 1.5GHz quad-core processor (4GB RAM)
Cons
  • Expensive

Wonderful kit for an "unmatched " RPi4 experience

I've built a dozen Raspberry Pi 3B+ SBCs with my grandkids and others, and each blue and yellow box was filled with wonder and happiness. When the Raspberry Pi 4 was released I immediately went with the 4GB version of CanaKit knowing all the necessary parts would be there - I wasn't disappointed. RPi4 is fast and the new Raspbian Buster OS (based on Debian 10) is a definite step up from Jessie. The two 4K HDMI ports work great. How on earth they can pack so much performance into such an…

Pros
  • CanaKit Premium Clear Raspberry Pi 4 Case, CanaKit Fan, Heatsink Kit
Cons
  • Update Availability

Great set but note the following details:

This is a great set and other reviews cover most of the important ones points off. Here's what I'd like to add that isn't mentioned anywhere else: 1) As far as fan complaints go, it doesn't matter. Yes, you can hear it, it's not quiet, but it's not loud either. When the room is quiet, you notice it. The moment other noises appear (music, TV, conversations, etc.), the fan disappears into the background and is forgotten. The fan stays on when the Pi is powered off. My big complaint is that the…

Pros
  • Micro HDMI to HDMI Cable - 1.8m (supports up to 4K 60p)
Cons
  • Off fashion
