“Arrived promptly, and was easy to assemble. Some initial issues confectionery it to the PC, but there's plenty on online support and we were up and running quickly”
“All looking good so far, bought as am upcoming birthday present for my 9yr old - only drawback so far is he intercepted the post (as he does!) and saw where the parcel was from :) :) So has a good idea whats inside it. Delivery from Pi Hut was super fast and ordering process was completely hassle free :)”
“I was recently gifted this for Father’s Day and am mightily impressed. Code is simple and easy to write with MakeCode and can be transferred to the micro:bit either via usb from a computer, or via Bluetooth from the app on a phone or tablet.
The batteries have lasted several days doing data logging too, so very little power required to run it.
Lots of ideas for future projects, including a robot or two with my kid.
10/10 would recommend, especially if you have kids.”
“Great kit for kids to start with. Includes different types of IDEs - from drag-n-drop to multiple standard (close enough) programming languages. The device itself offers a wide range of options/capabilities/sensors to play with.”
“My daughter has enjoyed some of the basic programming so far. We just found it quite tricky to connect to the iPad app via Bluetooth. We had to watch a few online videos and are getting use to how to connect and download. It keeps my daughter occupied so a great little app for learning code and having fun.”
“My 11 year old wanted to explore the microbit and this great device helped a lot in achieving what he was looking for. Its a very easy piece of device with clear using instructions which proved really useful.”
