This is like the best thing ever. A Pico W, a shedload (two sheds even) of LEDs and buttons and even audio! It's big! A great size for any sort of display application. Planning on using it as a virtual front panel for historical computer simulations among other projects. Also an incredible value for the price! Hope they keep making these for a while. Shipping from the UK to Chicagoland in the US took around 22 days. Really impressed with the packaging too and all the humorous text on the fancy box label. Well done.

Speaker appears to be a little quiet - but very nice display.

Amazing bit of kit for the money! Very pleased with the top-tier customer service from Pimoroni when the first board failed, too. Thanks team

A fantastic board to create a display on. As it came pre-loaded with four demos, it was nice to be able to plug it in and see it in action straight away, and it looks good enough to even get genuine family approval (which not every device gets, for sure!). With the examples on the site and github repo, it's easy to get up and running with the GU, and show it off further. I didn't actually realise when I ordered it that the Pico W was already in place, so that was a nice surprise too!

Brilliant board! Bright, fast and great fun. Excellent documentation and support with the usual high build standard. Works straight out of the lovely storage box! It is easy to add STEMMA/QT I2C sensors and the wifi gives it an added dimension. Plenty of buttons for control and the sound system works well. It's bigger than I expected. I've written a couple of extra tutorials which you can find here: https://www.instructables.com/Galactic-Unicorn-Graphical-Workout/ and https://www.instructables.com/Galactic-Unicorn-Bounce-Simple-GFX-Demo/

Worked straight out of the box, no hiccups at all. Looking forward to tinkering with it.
