Compact

I now have 2 of these, one is configured with Amiberry and one is on Raspbian. In both configurations they're fast for what they can do. I didn't realise how small the boards are but it doesn't detract from performance. The Raspbian Pi is in an aluminium case whereas the Amiberry Pi is in a 3D printed mini Amiga case. The only issue I have which isn't really Pi related is getting my head round the Linux system to set up my Pi on my network.Read full review

Brilliant micro PC

Fantastic Value Micro Pc the size of a cigarette packet,!!! powered using a phone charger this great bit of kit is good for many things such as learning about PC's and connectivity with devices such as cameras, light controllers or as a media server,
Because of its size it can be attached to the back of a HDMI TV or Monitor so no ugly desktop box. I bought a box and OS from elsewhere which again was very low cost
I would recommend this to other users but you do need a little bit of knowledge to set it up, but once setup it runs silently as there's no hard drive whirring away

Better than Ever

Much has been written about the Model 2 B but this is much better with WiFi and Bluetooth included. plus having a good extra turn of speed. I was using Debian “jessie” Linux on 2 and was able to clone the micro SSD directly to 3 without any problems.

Just to point out, the SSD socket on the 2 was push-push while the 3 is push-pull which is less convenient in small spaces.

great little machine that performs above its small size

i put thousands of retro games and go back to my childhood in about 30 mins from receiving it and then within a minute after that.
These are excellent for kids of all ages to learn about computing<br>i wish these were out 30 years agoRead full review

Almost fast enough as a 'desktop' for just surfing the web

The B+ is a great step up, a good improvement in speed. There are now lots of out of the box software projects for everyday use that just work. Amazing computer for the price.

Outstanding.

Re-live the classic arcade games of the 80s without pocketfuls of 10ps. I have had several similar (much cheaper) devices over the years but the beauty of this is that you can easily customise and edit the content to only have the consoles and games that YOU want. New games can also be found online. Pay a bit extra for the controllers too, you won’t regret it.Read full review

Amazing performance for such a small piece of kit

Wireless connectivity is a nice bonus and 1.2ghz quad core is fast.
cannot complain a lot of technology for little money.
2Gb of Ram instead of 1Gb would be a great addition.
Massive amount of support available on the internet for this micro PCRead full review

Very pleased with it

I bought this to run an amateur radio Dmr node and it is working well, and I am pleased with it, as the size men's I can make it portable and very light.

Best deal on the market, and made right here in the UK

The adventure begins.
A great deal at this price, that just cant be equalled. Booted up on NOOBS and installed Raspbian , WiFi, 4x USB ports, the expansion the possibilities are endless. So much work has gone into this GEM that it would be a bargain at twice the price.

A Hearty well done to the Cambridge gang and to element 14.

Superb little computer!!

Superb little computer, great for home projects , and for those just learning to program. Simple to setup & use, lots of community support. I’m building a cluster with mine to learn about lateral processing (and I’m no genius) this is proof of all the support that this mini computer is built upon.Read full review
