A nice case to hang on the wall, but there are several problems.

Pros: - This case looks great - It's metal and looks solid - Can be wall mounted. Cons: - The included screwdriver is not magnetized. This makes it useless to install the 4 screws to attach the Pi to the racks. The case is very difficult to close unless the board is in a very specific position that is taking a long time to determine. fits exactly to my Raspberry Pi3B board. It is most likely a manufacturing issue. With only 3 screws I was finally able to fix it in such a way that the case could

Temperature drops in Raspberry Pi 3 single board computers

The pros and cons of the design are mostly covered in other reviews. I'd like to add that the fan isn't very noisy, the case gives the Pi a decent amount of weight, and the flat copper part for SDRAM on the bottom is significantly larger than the chip itself. I bought this for my Raspberry Pi 3 as it's notorious is hotter than previous models. I took the time to measure the temperature before and after the installation using the built-in sensor and the "Stress" program available via apt-get…

Pros
  • Wide range
Cons
  • Hard to say

Very difficult when you need to work with the SD card later

Once installed under the table there is not enough space for the SD card unless you take tweezers or very small pliers. It's also difficult to reinsert this SD card as the slot on the back isn't well aligned making it difficult to get into the slot if you don't have space and a flashlight to see what you're doing . Just plan on disassembling it from the table if you need to reach it after reassembly, or trying to fish your SD card out of the bottom of the case after missing the slot.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Works

Not for Waveshare screen

I recently 3D printed some Raspberry Pi and Waveshare screen cases. While my setup physically fits into the case (and it's the best case I've ever compared to a 3D printed one), the screen is off-center. The bezel in this case is off-center as with the Elegoo screens (and I assume all the other existing screens are there apart from the Waveshare), but the Waveshare screen is off-center in the opposite direction. The unit works, everything turns on etc, so I can't blame it, but I had no way of…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Some little things
