“Beautifully crafted and easy to assemble, it’s also very fun to experiment with and use. The leds are truly beautiful, the buttons are silent and squishy, and you can start finding a lot of code examples on C, MicroPython and CircuitPython.

“Oodles of fun and possibilities. As of today (mid-Feb 2021) slightly let down by no USB HID support in Micropython on the Pico. That makes Pimoroni's choice of library a little perplexing: why not just go for CircuitPython where USB HID is already available. Ahh well. I'm sure like all Pi-things it'll get resolved over time.”
“I love this. The colours are bright and clear, and very tactile, and there are plenty of potential applications for it if you need an excuse to get hands on with the Pico.”
“Easy to put together, the colours are good and the keys are very soft. This would be a great project for children who are in primary or early secondary.”
“Cool addition to the Raspberry pi pico. Important to remember to download the setup files from Pimorini when using with the pico to ensure you have the correct setup for usage. The demo python device in my case was useful for getting started programming. I’ve used this for a lighting setup for online video conferencing already!”
“This thing is so much fun. Currently using it as a Midi Controller for Garageband over on iPad pro over usb C. Fun part about it is that with the Pico and circuitPython, I can code it using the Textastic App and quickly update the code and get back to work making sweet sweet beats.”
