“Noticeable improvement in performance. Having built in wifi and Bluetooth is also very useful. Make sure you have the right power supply for the pi, it does draw more power. Also, using ssh to connect to the pi works well, but the standard timeout for the connection is not very long. This is a software setting rather than a hardware one.”
“I think the Pi 3 is great and like the fact WiFi and Bluetooth have been added to it. I can see more projects being developed with those features on the PI now.”
“The extra speed and addition of Bluetooth and wifi create a product that will be more interesting to youngsters. Enthusiasts come from all age groups so hopefully this 'upgrade' will encourage others to have a slice ok Raspberry Pi.”
“I must admit I have put my new raspberry Pi3 to immediate use by using it to create a digital signage for my local childcare and church. As the device is new there were not may images available as of yet but it didn’t take long to build one from scratch behaving like the model B and it works like a treat displaying HD quality adverts and movie clips. Everybody was really amazed when I said I created a 40” digital signage for less than £260!!”
“The little SBC keeps getting better with each release. Certainly worth the upgrade from Pi2 if you need a cheap desktop replacement / development Linux system.”
