“Finally USB3 and 1Gb ethernet port, fast as well.
Best update so far in the Pi range.
Inevitable I guess but only downside is the new layout and switch to USB C charging means new case and PSU required as well.”
“Dial boot with Lakka & raspian, Steam Link, python socket for my arduino's serial data, node.js server, PiHole and Apache running all smoothly at the same time. With the Argon One case the Pi 4 is definitely worthy of its "title" as desktoo replacement. As long as one uses Unix system on this, Linux naturally works the smoothest, this small one can do a lot and more!”
“Very impressed with improved performance. Even my 10 year old grandson (veteran of high spec laptop, Xbox, PS2, iPad, etc etc) was impressed, may have to buy him one now. Experience of PiHut first class.”
“Everything I expected and more. This is replacing my old desktop. It is silent ( no fan fitted ). Yet to try it with 4K works really well at 1080p. Currently working my way through operating systems. Raspbarian works well, Booted up Ubuntu Server 64bit. Manjaro works well. Going to try network boot so wish me luck.”
“Bought this to attach to one of the three HDMI ports of my LG TV. The Raspberry Pi 4 with 4GB Ram which I attached a wirless keyboard and mouse to, now lets me update my Wordpress website from the comfort of my livingroom sofa.”
“This is my 5th Pi, I purchased this with a FLIRC case and USB-C adaptor. I have a powered USB3 3Tb drive I wanted to use for network attached storage on our domestic wired ethernet.
I used to work locally and back-up my work every day to the company file server. Now I am working at home I wanted the same facility remote from my home office.
I run the Pi headless, in the spare bedroom, running Rasbian Buster and Samba (which I had never used before). I use RDP to connect using Remina running on my Debian Jessie desktop machine. I can browse to the NAS using Nemo on my Cinnamon desktop, just as easily as a local drive.
Other family members on my network can share this facility, a good working application for a Pi4.”
“Bought the 4GB Pi and it works really well. I found there were some delays using the Pi with the Raspbian operating system, so I downloaded Manjaro Linux and that works really smoothly.”
