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

Protect my raspberry from being accidentaly damaged by scissor, other components. Few bucks for a more relaxed usage. Every slot match perfectly with all the sockets around your raspBerry Pi! The base has wall mounting holes (thats a plus) and the board can be kept in position using only the base (without the cover). In my project I used the base to stick the board inside a forniture (using the wall mounting holes), but I didnt use the cover as Ive mounted a daughter board with some dedicated circuitry. Its totally worth the 5 bucks.

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.

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.

Bought this for the RachelPi project. Made an offline internet incase the internet goes down someday. Somewhat of a prepper type project but better safe an sorry.

Unit OK No real problems very experienced in assembly May purchase again if needed

The case is good quality and seems to be functionally well-designed. But there are three clips on two opposite side of the case. You are supposed to press the Pi board into them so that it can be secured. I spent some time figuring out how to put the Pi board through those clips without putting too much force on the circuit. Here is the way: 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.

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.

I am very happy that I purchased this case. I tried building my own basic case, but it turned out crappy so I decided to just buy one. I really wanted a clear case to be able to see the Pi through the case, and Ive been waiting a while for a good case to show up on Amazon, so when I saw this I decided to give it a shot. Combined with a Pi cobbler cable, this a must have for the Pi. Installation was a piece of cake - just snap the two pieces together and youre done! The case seems sturdy and protects the pi from getting damaged when working around it. The little embossed port labels above each port are a nice touch. No complaints.
