    I wish I had seen the related answer before buying this case to fit a Sense Hat inside. You cannot put the cover on with a Sense Hat. The case is really nice otherwise, and I like that wall mounts wouldnt make any contact with the board.

    The only quibble Id have is theres no heat sink included. I have no idea whether Ill need one or not, but I do notice that other cases come with one, or even two. For what Im doing, this will live indoors in a climate-controlled room, and I wont be taxing it with a lot of I/O devices, so I think itll be fine. Just wanted to point that out in case your needs are different.

    Great for the Raspberry Pi B+, 2B or 3B, but not so great for the ASUS Tinker Board. The Tinker Board follows the same form factor as the Raspberry Pi3, so it was a surprize it didnt fit. I have 3 other Raspberry Pi cases that fit either. It seems the Tinker Board PCB is a tiny bit thicker, so it wont snap under the clips in this case. No problem for me, since I could swap it with one of my other cases, but if you are looking for a Tinker Board case, look elsewhere.

    I cant find anything I dont like about it. It looks good. The RPI 3 snapped right in and the two halves fit together properly. It couldnt be easier to assemble. The board is secure, no rattling if you give it a shake. The cutouts for the 3 IOs (Display, camera and GPIO) all seem well enough aligned, although I am not personally using them on this build, so they act as ventilation for me. Good buy if you are looking for a case for a RPI 3 you already own, or if you wanna save a few bucks vs one of the bundles that includes similar cases like I did.

    Perfect fit for my raspberry pi 3+.

    Nice solid case with slots in all the right places. Just be sure to remove the SD card before assembly ;) And Assembly is a snap -- literally! It has little feet, but Ive never been able to get a Pi to rest flat on the table -- the cables [Ethernet and HDMI] always lift it in the air, and for some strange reason, every Pi I own always seems to float upside down! It even has peg holes for mounting the Pi on a flat surface [dang, you can hang yer Pi, now!] -- BUT, hanging the Pi will nearly cover the vent holes [the little feet mandate an ~40mil clearance], so if overclocked, probably best to keep an eye on it at first. Im running a Pi at the default speed and the case isnt even warm [but then, it wasnt running much of anything when I did that]. Also, make sure whatever you use for the pegs has a thin enough head that it doesnt contact the circuit board [unless its made of something non-metal, like nylon, for instance]. I suggest pan-head screws. And if they ARE made of metal, then adjust their height [so theyre not touching the traces, or components, on the printed circuit board] BEFORE applying power to the Pi.

    I use these cases to help keep the Raspberry board clean. No screws for mounting the board are supplied and the required screws are a bit of an odd size. I cut down longer #4 plastic screws.

    This is a nice, cheap housing for a RPI3. If your needs are correct for a simple, cheap housing, this is your guy! Your Pi fits perfectly, and all connectors are exposed as needed. NICE!

    I have a centralized music server along with Qobuz Music Streaming. This device setup with Ropieee works ideal when coupled with an external DAC fed via USB. If you use it for high res audio, make sure you get a quality power supply.

    I am using this with a Raspberry Pi B+ with a 700-MHz ARM processor. It fits nicely in the case. To be on the safe side, I added a couple of heat sinks from the Addicore kit (see: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HPQGTI4), since I was enclosing the Raspberry Pi. I also added an HDMI to VGA converter (see: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ZMV7RL2/) so I could more easily switch between my PC and the Pi via a KVM. I gave the whole thing to my daughter since she likes to program with SCRATCH. Its amazing that 4th graders are now learning programming (something I didnt start until I was a freshman in college). We also supply power to the Pi with a CanaKit 5V 2.5A micro USB power supply (see: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MARDJZ4). The Pi fits snugly in the case and everything is visible, no ports are blocked.
