It's good. It's certainly more powerful than my old Pi. My main difficulty with it right now is that if it's in my bedroom upstairs, it can't pick up the WiFi from downstairs. So I have it plugged into ethernet downstairs, and I access it over the network (SSH and VNC). To be fair to the Pi though, some devices do find it hard to get the WiFi from upstairs (there are multiple walls in the way). I might buy a WiFi extender.

Very happy in the whole. I use it as a dual screen desktop. I use almost exclusively web based apps apart from the odd bit of photo editing in GIMP. Working well My only issues really sit around the PIOS update to bookworm and some of the display issues - specifically for me the loss of editable panels in the toolbar at the top of the screen. Other than that all good.

I already have an RPI 4 being used as a weather station and now that I have retired I want to port some PSoC projects onto an RPI 5. I need more performance and more memory and the RPI 5 meets that criteria. I looked at the other SBC's on the market and went with a Raspberry Pi as it is widely supported and ships in large numbers.

Super impressed with my Pi5, pre-ordered with the case, PSU and Active Cooler, all work seamlessly together. Amazingly, ThePiHut sent it the Friday before Christmas and it arrived on the Saturday morning, so I had some time to mess with it over the holiday. It boots to desktop in about 10 seconds, is way faster than my old Pi4 (which has now been relegated to Pi-Hole duties), and I can't believe how responsive it is, happy to play YouTube thru the Chromium at full HD, emulates retro games without breaking a sweat and makes our old TV a very usable Smart TV. All in, a great service from ThePiHut as always, and brilliant little package on the Pi5.
