“Having a few smart devices at home, I thought I'd start look into a way of integrating them and by using Home Assistant. A a starting point, it seemed that a Raspberry Pi was the cheapest and simplest solution. I bought the cheaper Pi 3 Model B rather than the more expensive Model 4 with some concern that it may not be powerful enough however I've been blown away with how it has worked.
The Pi arrived earlier than expected in pristine condition.
Thank you PI Hut”
“The Raspberry Pi 3b+ is a brilliant all rounder, personally I am using it for an emulation station and after getting NOOBS setup it is all now plug and play”
“Still perfect for many purposes (I used my latest one for running DNS and VPN servers), and has the advantage that it seems to run quite a bit cooler than the Pi 4. Purchasing from PiHut as smooth as always.”
“I've been using these for various utility duties for a few years; a home media server, PiHole, and ADS-B tracking node. Robust enough to get the job done.”
