“I ordered and paid fof my starter kit on 19 January 2026. The courier tells me they have lost it. I am still waiting for my starter kit. Evri the courier used have let me down personally over the last few months. I don't blame Rasperrt pi but perhaps they need to look at their distribution system. Hopefully my problem will be resolved soon”

Raspberry Pi 5 Review
The Raspberry Pi 5 is easily the fastest Pi yet, and you can feel the upgrade right away. Everything runs smoother, apps open quicker, and multitasking is way better than on older models. The improved USB and PCIe support are great bonuses, especially if you want faster storage.
It can even handle dual 4K displays, making it solid for a tiny desktop or media box. It does run hotter than previous Pis though, so a fan or active cooling is pretty much a must.
Overall, the Pi 5 feels less like a toy and more like a proper little computer. Great upgrade and totally worth it if you want more power.”
“Great kit would definitely recommend! Only thing I wish was included is the active cooler but it’s not that much more and if you take the plastic thing out of the case then you can still fit it in. But yeah the kit is great and easy to set up. Definitely great that the SD has raspberry pi OS preinstalled because saves some time.”
“I bought this kit to run my home automation system. All the hardware needed to be up and running meant it was a case of just plugging and playing, working straight away. I wish I could say the same for my grasp of the Home Assistant system!!
Great value for money and efficient dispatch, I received my kit in good time, despite delays in our local postal service.
I'll be looking here for sensors and accessories”
