“A fantastic bit of kit, relatively inexpensive, now easy to get working on wifi or wired, I have 2 now (plus a fairly old one) and they have opened up opertunities to get some old c++ code (1994) working again, not succeeded yet but am learning a lot on the way. It is no wonder this device has taken off so well and so widely.”
“Perfect bit of kit for my requirements, built a retro arcade game using retropie on the raspberrypi as the os. The end result i think is pretty awesome. Also delivery times from pihut cannot be faulted will definitely use you guys again.”
“I brought the Raspberry Pi 4 Model with 7" touchscreen and case for my husband, with his guidance, for Christmas. It arrived incredibly quickly and he was very pleased with it. He spent quite a lot of hours over the Christmas period 'playing' with it. It is now on the kitchen window sill displaying a graph with the temperature of the garden over the last 24 hours with current, min and max temperature displayed. It links into data collected by another Raspberry Pi we already have. Not that we're obsessed with the temperature!”
“Have a Pi 3 for various projects.
Decided to see if this version was a realistic possibility to replace a traditional desktop PC, given AAA titles for gaming don't feature in my down time.
It is currently serving that duty, RTL-SDR monitoring of aircraft, NAS via openmediavault and retropie for emulation.
If performance/even mild OCing is important, I DEFINITELY recommend a good case (flirc) or fan.
Don't make the same mistake i did with micro HDMI sockets, I thought I had adapters ready to use, but they were mini, not micro.
Consider having at least one share micro SD card... Once the basics are in place with software and config, clone the card in use to your spare one. If tweaking leads to non booting, you have an option if you just need to get online quickly.
Happy with the purchase, would (and will) recommend to others.”
“Bought for my son (Physics PhD student) as a Christmas present - everything he wanted to add to the two other Pi's he has. He is delighted with it and what he is able to do with it.”
