“Great way to get into programming microcontrollers with micropython, it's a great all-in-one package. Contains quite a few sensors, a display, BLE and radio communication, buttons and input-output pins in a small form factor!”
“Had problems with timeout download error code but it seems to be working OK programming from my laptop now. Think it may have been a raspberrypi issue. Very happy with the microbit .”
“My son is learning to program at school with this. But due to remote school they were having to use the simulator. Having the actual device makes it much more interesting.”
“Useful addition (the extra memory will be useful with the Environbit for remote sensing).
Be aware it is loaded with a very noisy demo and Mu has some issues flashing code to it out of the box (so you can shut it up).”
