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

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.

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.

Great for the Raspberry Pi B+, 2B or 3B, but not so great for the ASUS Tinker Board. The Tinker Board follows the same form factor as the Raspberry Pi3, so it was a surprize it didnt fit. I have 3 other Raspberry Pi cases that fit either. It seems the Tinker Board PCB is a tiny bit thicker, so it wont snap under the clips in this case. No problem for me, since I could swap it with one of my other cases, but if you are looking for a Tinker Board case, look elsewhere.

Good case and fits my Raspberry Pi B+. Love that it has wall mounts on the back and doesnt really require any screws to put together. All the ports are easily accessible and arent blocked at all. Havent used anything with the GPIO pins but seems to have more than a big enough opening to handle the connection. The one downfall of no screws is it can be a little hard to open the case if you need to add anything like heat sinks

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.

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 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 used this case together with the adafruit 2.4 LCD screen hat, and it all fit together inside the case. The cutout for the camera ribbon cable is a little annoying though since it ended up right in the middle of the LCD, but I suppose those folks using cameras really appreciate it. The cutout for the GPIO is handy and well-implemented. Im one of those people who does a lot of interfacing with my raspberry pi projects and easily accessible GPIO is a huge benefit. The case seems sturdy, yet is very lightweight. Ive had no trouble with anything cracking. It assembled easily. Previously my development pi (i.e. the one that floats around occasionally being connected into various projects-in-progess while I design them) would float around without a case, but theres always the risk of shorting the board out against some unnoticed junk on the workbench. Its nice having at least one pi in a sturdy little plastic case, while still having access to GPIO. I might buy a few more.

Very nice. Has screw-mount holes underneath PCB. Also has hole for rasp-camera flat cable to protrude thru top of case. Very nice, well thought out. Snaps together and holds nicely; sturdy. Will buy more, if I dont get the all aluminum case from Flirc first...nice being able to see-thru the case. Foolishly bought several of the original rasp pi 3 cases, which are shockingly flimsy, snap-together toy-like junkies with 5 individual pieces....pretty much the dumbest thing Ive seen yet, really making rasp pi feel like a cheap toy. These cases, in contrast, are what should ship with RP3.

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.
