Raspberry Pi Official Grey / Black Case for Raspberry Pi 4 Model B (The board is not included.)

First off although you know it is supposed to be small you never quite realise how small it will be till you see it for the first time. I bought at the same time a official case, heat sinks and a micro SD card. I had a selection of cables and USB power cables and wall warts set up was as expected no issues it just worked the only problem is you do need the official power supply or 3 Amps or more at 5.1 Volts. The other small issue that I was expecting was over heating (I had planed to add a fan to the case) which i did as soon as possible (Used a 3V/5V fan) this made all the difference. As for performance Surprised was the expression of the...view more First off although you know it is supposed to be small you never quite realise how small it will be till you see it for the first time.

As for performance Surprised was the expression of the day! I could daily drive this thing it is a some what slower than my old~ISH laptop not horridly slow either it seems way faster than three of my low specked android tablets and is seems on par with my Samsung tablet of a year or so ago, Though I can do a lot more with this Raspberry Pi. As for power lets say I ran i for 12+ hours on a 10,000mAh power-bank (your mileage may vary due to capability of your power-bank 4gig of ram seems plenty enough though with more ram you could set up a ram-disk to make this thing faster (SD cards are some time not known for there speed). That being said this should not be your first computer as you kind of need a computer to set up the SD card, I could be wrong about that in the end development in a Unix like system will be the job of this device. This review was written on this device!

I was using a raspberry pi from 2011 and it was really out of date and would not work properly. but now since i have this model i have run into no problems I was using a raspberry pi from 2011 and it was really out of date and would not work properly. but now since i have this model i have run into no problems

Loved it, worked straight out of the box, great upgrade from my Pi2

almost want another one! Loved it, worked straight out of the box, great upgrade from my Pi2

Fastest and memory intensive Pi you can get! Fastest and memory intensive Pi you can get!

it fits to my newly bought raspi 4 it fits to my newly bought raspi 4

if you dont want to think what to buy for right voltage amount for your rpi 4. this power adapter suits to you. if you dont want to think what to buy for right voltage amount for your rpi 4. this power adapter suits to you.

better than raspberry pi 3b better than raspberry pi 3b

Fully satisfied with this buying and delivery time. price wise PB tech is always ahead of all the suppliers here in NZ. I always prefer PB Tech for any IT related equipment. Keep up the good work guys. Fully satisfied with this buying and delivery time. price wise PB tech is always ahead of all the suppliers here in NZ.

It's hard to believe this tiny computing device is actually a complete computer. I bought this for my son and he had a lot of fun with it. It's hard to believe this tiny computing device is actually a complete computer. I bought this for my son and he had a lot of fun with it.

Awesome piece of technology. Works very well. Awesome piece of technology. Works very well.

A replacement for the Pi 3 and I am very happy with it. A replacement for the Pi 3 and I am very happy with it.

I'm using my RPI 4 as a small home server, replacing a big desktop server. Saving a lot of money this way on power as the RPI is very power efficient.
All works well. I'm using my RPI 4 as a small home server, replacing a big desktop server. Saving a lot of money this way on power as the RPI is very power efficient.
