Great starter kit for Raspberry Pi.

The best starter kit for Raspberry Pi. I found myself learning new things and reusing old ones. With other websites I am close to building a smart mirror but also interested in buying an 8G kit for more complex projects as well as a monitor and case combo.

Pros
  • Brilliantly made
Cons
  • Protection

Don't worry Pi

I used this with my laser cutter to make it wifi accessible via the Lightburn bridge. Many use it for OctoPi and it works great for that too. There's a whole Pi world out there and I'd love to do some dev work to see if I can set up less Frankenstein for some of my stuff.

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • Low maintainability

Great hardware/OS for single board computers

For a 32-bit device, I'm pleasantly surprised by its performance. I have used the RIP in conjunction with DMR radios for several years but never considered using it as a desktop computer. Unfortunately, the user cannot enter the IP address of this device and use a web browser to configure it. You need a monitor, a keyboard and a mouse. WiFi function is also available.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Some issues

Quiet performer for computer components

No fan, LOW power consumption, good performance, what don't I like? The aluminum case works. CPU temperatures are within a safe range for moderate/heavy usage. This is ideal for email, browsing, and applications with moderate memory/CPU cycle requirements. Am I going to edit the next great novel/screenplay based on this one? Probably no. Most other uses are perfect for this little gem. Get one and have fun. 4 stars because nothing is perfect.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Worries me

Good and interesting product

The raspberry board is really very small I said the size of the card but it's good I notice that the protective cover is heating up but I think it's because it Heat dissipates passively with no fans, which is great and no noise. I wish the kit included an aluminum heatsink for the RAM. but in itself a very good product, I was surprised by the quality of the case; Its construction is made of good material. Now it remains only to view projects

Pros
  • Good workmanship
Cons
  • There are nuances

Two SD cards in a row were corrupted

I bought two of these cards and all the hardware in the boxes worked fine. But CanaKit doesn't do any of that, they just pack everything together. The only part they "create" is the image on the SD card and two of them were corrupted. After recreating one with a fresh copy of NOOBS and the other with Raspberry PI imaging software, both were bootable. But the point of the kit is ease of use, and they should be ready to go right out of the box. I could buy the individual components separately and

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • May corrupted

Such a small and affordable device with so much potential.

The Raspberry Pi 4 turned out to be a nice little gadget. One I would highly recommend to anyone with a desire and thirst for knowledge, problem solving, experimentation, engineering or just plain old fun. This is a great device with a lot of potential, not only can it bring the family together in a learning environment where everyone can learn together and develop/awaken skills that are useful not only in your personal life but also in the real world. In addition, you can easily choose from aโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Weight

Great first kit for a beginner!

If you want to see what these inexpensive little computers can do and don't want to fiddle with all the mechanical parts of the build then this kit is for you! This isn't new, having built dozens of computers in 40+ years, I've had personal computers, but I think it entitles me to comment on what's right and wrong with this class of machines (Raspberry Pis). I chose this kit. because I didn't want to put in a lot of effort to plug something in to interface with my Sovol SV01 3D printer andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Old
