Exactly what I needed

I purchased this kit after some research into a number of Raspberry Pi kits. Here are my reasons for purchasing:1) The 2500 ma power supply is the best I found in a kit.2) The 16 GB high speed Sandisk Micro SD card is the best I found in a kit.2) The black case seemed a good choice.4) I needed a Wifi dongle, cables and heat sinks.Discussion:The power supply is more than adequate. I wanted to use this with a Logitech K400 wireless Keyboard/Trackpad. I had read of people having issues with wireless keyboards not working correctly and from their comments I suspected the problem had to do with low power. I set this Pi up with the included Edimax wifi dongle and the wireless dongle from the K400 and so far, both work just as they should. No problems.The Sandisk card worked perfectly. It came with NOOBS preinstalled and the setup for Raspbian went off without a hitch. For setup, I used a wired keyboard and mouse, but afterward, powered down, unplugged it and inserted the K400's dongle and it was instantly recognized. The access speed is good and at this capacity, the card should last longer than a smaller one that would need to erase and rewrite more often.The case is very good. It has a matte black finish, and the Pi fits very snugly into it. In my opinion, it has a better tactile feel than a slicker clear case, but that is just a preference. It will probably look better longer because it doesn't show fingerprints. Scratches, when and if they come, should also be harder to see.The cables and heat sinks are as described and work as intended. Most kits have these parts.Bonus item:In addition to the included brief 'Quick Start Guide,' Vilros also sent me a pdf version of their 200 page manual. This is a well-written guide and if sending it to customers will continue to be their practice, they really ought to include it in the product description. I hesitated over this kit because it didn't seem to include a comprehensive guide. Then, I very nearly spent the money for a Kindle edition of the Vilros book because of its good reputation. I would have been vexed to have wasted that money had I found out later that an electronic edition would be sent to me free. Even now, I cannot say for certain whether everyone buying this kit will recieve this guide. Vilros really needs to clarify this point.Things not included:There were no additional parts for GPIO experiments as seen in other kits. That was fine, because I was able to use the money saved from a more expensive kit to purchase a separate set of electronics accessories, getting better quality overall. My main reason for buying this kit is to experiment with projects for inclusion into a possible middle-school course exploring IT careers. Lessons need to include computer set up and configuration, simple programming, basic networking, making and serving basic web pages, and a few simple electronics control experiments using the GPIO pins. Any school-owned Pis (purchased to lend to students who cannot afford their own) will need sturdy cases and durable SD cards, with power supplies adequate for whatever comes up. Electronics parts, on the other hand, will likely be lab consumables, so using separate, low-cost kits for those is actually better.So far this kit is everything I hoped it would be. I would recommend it to anyone.

Worth every penny... and more!

The Pros:- I am impressed how well-built is the kit. Everything, from packaging to electronics, shows good quality control in manufacturing and component selection - like the HDMI cable, the clear plastic case, or the Raspberry Pi 3 (RP3) electronics. Vilros did pay much attention to details, and it shows. I like a company that strives to provide excellent quality to its customers.- RP3 has improved features over its predecessors, like built-in Wi-Fi, higher processor speed (frequency), more RAM, etc.- The addition of the protective case is an added bonus. I said "added bonus" because, IMHO, the case is not absolutely necessary to start using the kit. However, it does help protect the electronics. And it looks cool, too!- The heatsinks (little aluminum blocks with fins), on the other hand, ARE absolutely necessary if the user intends to use RP3 in graphic-intensive applications (eg, watching movies, or playing games). Their addition to the kit are a must (again, IMHO).- The company selling the kit, Prestige Milano, is also one of those companies that understand the importance of making their customer(s) happy. Mr. Roberts from Prestige Milano followed up my purchase with a complimentary E-book of the Vilros Raspberry Pi User Guide. Very useful guide, even for long-time users of Linux like myself; highly recommended to get the things going smoothly. It has way more information than the pamphlet that comes with the kit.- The kit is inexpensive enough that I am going to get another one or two for my kids. The same kit, from the same (you guessed it) Prestige Milano.- RP3 is really, really easy to use. It's actually MUCH easier to use than a M$ Windows operating system (OS). The starting program and OS on the included microSD card, and the included Vilros Quick Start Guide makes even a 7-years old be able to start using the RP3 as soon as the connections are made.The Cons (not enough to justify penalizing the review):- I would add four small rubber pads to the case, so that it doesn't slide on- or scratch the surface where the RP3 is put.- The case mounting instructions refer to four small screws to attach the RP3 card to the case, which were missing from the box. They are not really needed, as the card is attached to the case by means of four snap tabs. But then, the manufacturer should either not mention them in the instructions; or if they are mentioned, the screws should have been added to the box.Well, that's about it! I'm heading to the purchasing area to get those other two kits from Prestige Milano. Wish me luck! :-)

Interesting & economical PC

After a quick assessment with reviews of supported Operating systems on Pi2 / Pi3 / Pi3+& Pi4 I decided to go with PI3 Model B since there seems to be ready download links from Ubuntu Mate, Windows 10 IoT & the default Raspbian OS.Selected a kit instead of individual purchases since I wanted to be able to start using the PI as soon as I received it.

Pleasantly surprised.

This turned out to be a blockbuster deal and price has increased significantly since. I was afraid of inferior quality accessories to accompany the pi 3 but i'm pleasantly surprised. The SD card comes with NOOBS and i was up and running with OSMC in less than 10 mins. i can finally use my old pi for some other tinkering project. Product was delivered next business day as promised. The only thing missing in the package is the thermal paste for fixing the heatsink. However, the Pi runs fine without the heatsink and hence i'm going to ignore this for now. Overall happy with the purchase.

Great product

I purchased this kit from Cart2India for under 3 K. Perhaps it was a promotional scheme since similar kits are priced way above this level.The product is excellent value for money. Every component has been tested and works well.A suggestion to relative newcomers to the Raspberry Pi fold; go by the official documentation on the Raspberry Pi foundation's extremely informative site. The product & software change so fast that any tutorial over six months old is likely to be obsolete.
