sb components Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ Transparent Case - Access to All Ports

Pros: As the product says, it is a no-nonsense protective case, and that is true. It is clear which means you will be able to see your raspberry pi through the case. It works with the Raspberry Pi 2 and the Raspberry Pi 1 model B+. Cons: It doesnt work with other Raspberry Pi models (except possibly newer ones than the ones I listed) It is not pretty or stylish like some other cases are. Conclusion: I am completely satisfied with this purchase. This case allows me to handle my Raspberry Pi without worrying about it being damaged if I set it down or if it slides off a table.

Perfect fit for my raspberry pi 3+.

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.

I bought 2 of these and will buy more when I need them. I sometimes take for granted when things just do what they are supposed to, and Id probably not have reviewed these had Amazon not prompted. For the price these simple transparent cases are just what I was looking for. One feature I appreciate is the keyhole slots on the back are dual-sided, that is they can be mounted in either vertical orientation. Nice feature for me.

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 ordered this case for a proof-of-concept magic mirror project I developed for a demo at a tech conference. After trying several options (including hot-glueing the Pi directly to the mirror frame), I decided to get this case. I have a Pi 2, but, the slots all lined up perfectly, anyway. The plastic is nice and sturdy and relatively scratch resistant. There is a slot for inserting the camera (which Im using on this project). You can easily attach leads to the interface connectors, but, I dont think most HATs would work. Theres even a little window that makes it easy to remove and add the micro SD card. All of the connector holes are precisely positioned and just big enough to allow a good connection while still maximizing protection. My favorite feature of this case is the ability to snap the Pi in without having to attach with screws to the case. I have been doing some work on the prototype that has required a lot of moving about while reconfiguring the mirror and Ive had to remove the Pi on several occasions after attaching the case to the mirror frame. All I had to do was unsnap it and snap it back in. Because I use hot glue in prototyping, I was worried that the case would melt, discolor or deform during the glueing process. It turns out that was no problem at all. I glued the case to the mirror frame and, now, I can snap the Pi in and out as needed without bothering the case.

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!

Notice: This is a review of my own making, I did NOT receive any compensation or product voucher or free item. I purchased this for my own independent usage and research. Summary: The case offered what I was seeking at a fairly reasonable price. It offers a reasonable amount of protection to the board, keeps it slightly elevated for better airflow on the underside, and allows for visibility of the circuitry and LEDs. Pros: *Reasonable price. *Clear case to see circuit board and LEDs. *Vents on the underside for improved airflow *Screw holes for wall mounting *Easy access to USB, Ethernet, Power, HDMI, and Audio. Cons: *SD card is difficult to remove on Raspberry Pi 3, as it is a pull release instead of a push-pull, and the SD card can only be grasped from the top of the card. (See pictures) *No ventilation on the top of the board over CPU for cooling/airflow purposes. *Case arrived with several scratches, small chips, or breaks, but was otherwise usable. *Case was a very tight fit, had to force the board in place. I suspect the case or board may be damaged or scraped upon removal. Untested/no comment: *I did not make use of the ribbon-display port, camera port, or GPIO pins. I have no comment on their accessibility at this time. Installation: For installing the board into the case, I followed steps similar to reviewer Y. Wang on January 7, 2016 you put the board into two clips on one side first, leaving the other side hanging out. Then you put the lid of the case on the board. Press and lid and try to snap the case into closed position. The case edges will put pressure on the board evenly and snap it into place. Done.

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.

This is a great clear 2-piece snap together plastic case for the $5.xx price. I love being able to see my Pi 3 B sitting securely in its case as Im surfing the net. This is one of the very few cases that has a very ample opening for the GPIO. This allows for easier access for connectors as well as the secondary benefit of a larger opening for heat exchange/dissipation. This item does not have heat sinks or screws to secure the RPi, though 3 clips in the lower section help hold it in place. It did come with 4 tiny rubber pads for the bottom.
