Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The possibilities are endless! There are specific linux distros that are for media center purposes, emulators, and iot usage. The online support for the rpi is practically endless.



Cons

I troubleshot this extensively, but everything i did would not make it boot. It keeps popping out, which risks corrupting the sd card. Buy a new 3b instead.

Rasp pi 2 is a nice portable size and a cool concept and all, but for me, that was hoping to use pi 2 to run my kodi media center thru, nothing but headaches. Windows 10 os will only have it's own addtl problems and kinks to work out! Disappointed wit...  Read More

Quality


This device fully meets my requirements it well built and easy to use


Robotics and computer programming as expected very technical and challenging and a great way to energize young people

Packaging/appearance


It arrived in packaging that kept it safe and it worked as expected


It came nicely packaged no sign of damage when received

Item received as appears and was in good condition

Competitiveness


Risc os and the bsds are a lot easier to get working on the pi 2


Well worth the money in fact it has payed itself off as it uses so much less power than a traditional server


While other boards are faster and better for some application the size of the rpi community alone makes the rpi more valuable for me


Only reason for this versus a pi3 is the power consumption
