“I had a Raspberry Pi 2 for a number of years and decided to upgrade to the Raspberry Pi 400, and I'm not disappointed! I use it mainly as a personal computer and it is perfect for that. It takes up very little room on my desk, connects easily to my wifi and HDMI screen, and it looks good too! I have a laptop for work that I am wary of playing around with the configuration of in case I mess something up I'm not supposed to. Having this Pi 400 means that I can hack and code away to my heart's content and if I mess something up, no big deal, I can just start from scratch and re-install the OS from an SD card. Perfect for learning to program.”

“This is, frankly, the natural evolution of the BBC Micro computer. If you would like to give anyone an accessible start in computer science or embedded electronics, this is a good way to go. It's well built, has all of the expandability of an ordinary Pi4, _but_ it comes with - or is built into - all of the required peripherals to make getting started with Arm-based operating systems a doddle. The included book covers simple and basic GUI based logic flows, more complex Python examples, but most importantly small electronics projects that can be attached to the GPIO header for automation. I will be buying at least one of these for nephews/nieces this Christmas.”

“Beautifully made, well packaged and it booted up immediately with no setup. I knew what I was getting into with this, but the experience itself was a lot of fun. I bought this for my nephew for Christmas and it'll be perfect for him to learn some basic computing skills and to play Minecraft.”

“This Pi 400 is my first venture into the Pi world. I chose the Pi 400 as a means of learning to program a Pi Pico (ordered at the same time) without necessarily needing the Pi Pico to be available all the time to try things out. I got the Pi 400 up and running quickly and it seems nicely built. I was only disappointed that updating the operating system which is part of the getting started steps that you are led through didn't work. It was necessary to google for help and then to use the terminal window command line to update the OS. This was ok for me, but I didn't expect that hurdle within the first 10 minutes of use. I think some information about this issue could have been provided.”

“Bought this for my son and neither he, nor I, could be any happier with it. The website is super clear, delivery is cheap and fast and the product itself is brilliant. I have a feeling it won't be the last thing I buy from the Pi Hut...”
