“This is a fantastic board with great potential, very flexible GPIO, low power and in a small footprint. Unfortunately lacks an easy to use GUI, just like the Arduino has had for ages. It could also do with a power LED, so that you can get a visual indication that the board has power, and a rest button. It is also unfortunate that the GPIOs have the silkscreen on the bottom of the board and can't be seen when in a breadboard.”
“What a fantastic little board. In a short time it has become my go-to microcontroller. Easy to use and yet very powerful. For most of my projects lack of wireless is not an issue - and it's easy to add in any case. Also impressed by how many dedicated accessories are available already to make life easier still.”
“The Pico is a great product for the price, as you would expect from Raspberry Pi. My Pico project has now been running for several days without problem.
I must also commend Pimoroni for their superb customer service; I had an issue with my order (nothing to do with the product and completely outside of Pimoroni's control) which was resolved extremely quickly and with no fuss.”
“Great little controller with some unique features.
For projects that don't need WiFi, it's a terrific option.
MicroPython is much easier to deal with than C++, too.”
“The price is great, but this is so full of value. The documentation is top-notch, the ease of use is great and you kinda get to choose how low level you want to go. And finally, Pimoroni's service is excellent and fast.”
