Straightforward , relatively simple device with lots of sensors and lots of opportunities means my (autistic( son loves it.. Also the microbit approach of providing three languages (scratch like, python and javascript) is awesome.

Purchased a microbit, entire process was straight forward and delivery was quick. Great selection of all products.

I am a bit late in discovering these remarkable devices. With the Microsoft Makebit development environment, I had my own code running on the micro:bit less than 30 minutes after it arrived. The key to that was the built-in simulator, which highlights any unexpected or unintentional code behaviour immediately, meaning that debugging becomes straitforward. Ideal for people of any age with or without previous coding experience, and also gives an immediate path into Python coding. OK, so the on-board ARM device has a 600+ page datasheet, but there is no need at all to refer to that, I was just curious about just how incredible capable the processor SoC was. Astonishing value for money.

Awesome device, and super impressive web-based software. No fuss to code with, no fuss to upgrade firmware, plus the selection of addon, plugins etc. is fantastic.

Great product and lots of fun. Didn't cost too much and both myself and my nine year old son have had lots of fun programming little programs in MakeCode and Python - both of which are really clear and easy to learn. We'll probably keep learning a bit and then maybe venture out and get some add ons like motors or sensors. The retailer was great and I'd recommend (and will be) buying from them.

I like this version much more than the v1 because it’s easy to do proper data logging independently of a computer.

Excellent piece of tech... my son and I are enjoying trying different setups and configurations. So far a lot of fun!
