“This case has beautiful and vivid color, and has speciality when compared with other cases. Then it easily fit to stacked Pi Zero (Pi Zero with DAC etc.) by separating each layer.”
“I love the design of this case and it fits really well, keeping everything protected. I use it with the Blinkt which is easy to plugin into the expired GPIO ports.
The minor flaw is that you have to dismantle the case to access the SD card.”
“I ordered this as a "case" for my Pi Zero W, and was rather sceptical to be honest.
It arrived the next day and is a fun little case to build and is very sturdy.
Love it, will buy another for my other Zero, no problem!
My only issue is you have to dismantle the top 2 layers to replace the SD card but it's not really a mega hard job.”
“I got one of these in a pi zero W starter kit at a "I Made It Rainbow" event I went to at sheffield hallam university.
Couldn't be happier :D its amazing. I'm happy that my pi zero W will be safe and secure in this little case.
Thankyou”
“Bought a pi zero w to take care of a pi based CCTV solution. I wanted to build the solution for the lowest possible price. This case fits the bill perfectly. There's a plentiful gap between the CPU and the top of the case, which aid cooling. Building the case was straightforward using the exploded diagram on this very page. The colours used are nice, not too garish, but at the same time, fun. The pi zero w itself sits beautifully in the case. It would be nice to have access to the micro SD slot, but i don't actually need access, so i still give the case a full 5 stars. Really pleased with this purchase.”
“'+++Pros:
+ Truely a nice colo(u)s and simple, yet beautiful design that I personally like much more than the official case (which is done very well either). I also prefer the darker color combination over the previous rather orange-ish Pibow Zero color combination.
+ This case ensures that you Pi Zero W doesn't get lost on your desk -- albeit it raises the inherent danger that your Pi Zero W does get lost in someone else's pocket even more so due to its elegant design.
+ Assembling the Pibow Zero W case was quick and easy, thanks to the numbers etched into the layers. I really appreciate the layered construction.
+ HATs still work.
---Cons, aka nitpicking:
- The topmost transparent layer came with a nice scratch which I immediately saw when I unpacked the layers. After several frames and cases from Pimoroni this is the first one that came scratched.
- The bottom right corner of the red layer (2) is very fragile and can easily break off when assembling the kit. Fortunately, this corner will still be held in place by the bolt.
- I would like to see single-colored Pibow Zero W cases, with the same range as for the 7" Touch LCD frame, so they can be matched. Unicolor tangerine, or jade, or flotilla, or ...
- Unfortunately, the mSD card cannot be replaced without having to temporarily remove the topmost two layers.
Summary: great little case from Pimoroni, get it!”
