“Super impressive, bright LEDs and multiple programmable buttons, as well as a speaker, battery connector and JST-SH port significantly increase the utility of this versatile, stunning display!”
“This is a great board with great potential. I was playing around with some graphics and texts, and this looks promising. Everything works smoothly, very quick responses. I have not tested the Wireless features but I expect this to work well.
I have many ideas and not much time, but because the adoption rate is quick, you don't need a lot of time to start playing.”
“A great display, large and solid with convenient connectors on board for battery/i2c additions. The utilisation of Picigraphics makes this a breeze to make useful and impressive displays. The cost is very reasonable, I remember when a single blue LED would cost £80.00 which puts the cost of 500+ multicoloured LED's with a single board computer in perspective.”
“This board is epic. The quality is amazing and the possibilities are endless. I set up MQTT and can send any message via the internet from any integration.”
“The GU is a triumph of the blinky LED world. Excellent implementation of picographics will have you up and running in no time. Clever use of PIO as a framebuffer makes animations as buttery smooth as you'd like them to be. If you're considering a GU, I'd doubt you'll be disappointed. Pimoroni have outdone themselves with this board.”
“I am delighted with this. I intend to write a simulation of the very first computer game I ever played, backed in 1968, on an IBM 7094 (what passed for a mainframe in those days).
If at first you can't get the programming to work, keep on trying. The Pico is a wayward little beast that does not always do what it is told, but does knuckle under in the end.”
