“A great upgrade to the original Raspberry Pi Zero, I use a lot of Raspberry Pi's and always found the performance of the original Raspberry Pi Zero lacklustre. There are lots of scenarios where a full size Pi is just not suitable and this is where the form factor of the Raspberry Pi Zero comes in. This difference in performance with the Pi Zero 2 compared to the original Pi Zero is huge, fortunately it retains the same form factor as the original which makes it fully compatible with any existing cases or peripherals.
I recently replaced an original Pi Zero W in an MMDVM Hotspot with a Pi Zero 2 W and even in that application the difference is staggering, the PiStar built-in Webpage runs a lot faster making it much easier for me to change settings or configurations when I'm using my Hotspot mobile. I have several MMDVM Hotspots and I will replace every single original Pi Zero W with a Pi Zero 2 W.
I also have a JustBoom! Amp Zero that currently has the original Pi Zero W and I can't wait to replace that with the Pi Zero 2 W.”
“Fired it into my prusa Mk3s to get some wifi connectivity, running an instance of octoprint. Works great, much faster than its predecessor so handles the task with ease. Just need 3 more for my other printers now ;)”
“The raspberry pi zero 2 w worked, but using the offical case from pi hut I found that the case stopped the video dongle seating correctly. Removing the pi from the case all worked correctly”
“I got it working easily with 2Mpix camera and Camera case however 512MB could be limiting factor for some use cases. For example I was not able to finish compiling of ffmpeg with MMAL support because of this RAM limitation.”
“Fantastic and very capable little computer. I have a few Raspberry Pi's but this particular one with its built-in wifi, multicore processor and very small footprint is perfect to run the software I use to control my 3D printer. Excellent price too direct from the PiHut.”
“Yet again the PiHut provides a good service. My Pi Zero 2W was on back-order for many months and when supplies were available they emailed me to let me know. Within two days I had the Zero pop through the letter box. Great service as always!”
