“At this price what's not to like!
For me two things set this board apart. The programmable PIO and the excellent documentation. Its very easy to set up the SDK on a raspberry PI for SWD debugging, which is great.”
“Seems nice foot print, with the castleated connection, was hoping to surface mount it onto a PCB, just waiting for Arduino core, as don't want to write firmware with micropython, so bit of a chocolate fire guard for me at the minute, but I am hoping to use it in my project UPAS.”
“This being the latest creation from the raspberry pi foundation
With its low cost and quality software examples will have you
Up and running in no time.
I recommend the Pico to all old and young”
