Nice little board, except.

Decent sound for the price and clear picture. However, care should be taken when connecting and disconnecting headphones. The headphone jack is not mechanically soldered (surface mounted) to the sound board and is fairly easy to remove. Buttons should be at least higher. Finally, since the HUT was made specifically for the Pi Zero, it would be nice if they made a decent case.

Pros
  • Computer components
Cons
  • Expensive insurance
