LABISTS Magic Mirror, Smart Raspberry Pi Display Monitor, Make-up Mirror with Adjustable Light Strips Showing Weather Time Schedule News, Playing Music, Making E-albums (10.1 Inch)

I have thought about buying a Raspberry pi for a while, and am pleased that I choose the Labists starter kit.It was relatively easy to assemble the pi 4 into the case, the tricky part was holding the screws in place so that they could be attached. This needed long-nosed pliers, so that I could avoid touching the pi 4 itself too much.The instructions had small print but were good and Labists do good instruction videos online.Once installed, then it was easy to connect to my HDMI monitor using the 2 included mini HDMI to HDMI cables and the micro SD card had Raspian installed already.It booted up easily, and following the instructions from a Raspberry pi book I bought separately, it was very easy to configure, connect to my WiFi and download updates to get it all working.The power supply is also good with a nice inline on-off switch.And copper heatsinks are provided for the 3 main chips on the pi 4.It is a 4 star review because the cooling fan was faulty, but Labists support quickly supplied me with a working replacement.I am very happy with my purchase.

Your browser does not support HTML5 video.  I was worried when I got this that it would look too much like a screen and not enough like a mirror, which really is the main reason why I wanted it.I needn't have worried as even down to the stand it looks like a normal mirror, just with a speaker section down the bottom.I've personally set this up as a monitor for my home security which hides behind the mirror when not in use, this guy is ves me a little more security knowing that only I can see it as and when I want to. My setup was rather simple as it's just a case of connecting it up to my NVR and I was away. However, adding a raspberry pi to create a smart mirror which would give you a lot more adjustability would probably be a much fairer way to check the capabilities. But for me, it does the job I wanted it for.

Have to say it is very useful during this lockdown time 😜I bought this for my daughter as one of her last Xmas present, the raspberry pi as a computer it seems fine, she quickly used equipment to build it up, this bandage package included most of what she need, such as 128g sd card with pre-installed software, raspberry pi motherboard, generally it seems fine, I only give 4 star, just because the sd card reader quality is very poor, only used couple times, it stopped working, but the seller is very generous, tried it best for help. I don’t know too much about raspberry pi, but this tiny stuff can used as a normal computer, I think it is amazing, my daughter used it to link with her room tv, she used it for her online remote learning as all of the school are closed during this third lockdown. Anyway, so far so good, hope it will keep working well!

This is my first Pi and I have to say, I am very impressed with this tiny PC. My kit came from Labists with 8GB Ram, and 128GB Micro SD Card with Raspbian Installed. I wanted one of these for Arcade Gaming, so never used the original SD supplied. I used a Kingston 128GB Micro SD which I already had and loaded RecalBox Arcade and imported quite a large number of classic arcade games from my personal collection. Then WOW, I am amazed how this little Pi works flawlessly, I am now able to enjoy my old games once again. Fantastic little product.

So overall I'm very happy with this purchase, the case and all the accessories you get are a great quality start pack.I would advise buyers to factor in the need for a 3rd party cooling fan though. With my original fan set, one of the fans started making a loud buzzing sound after only a day running on the 3v (silent mode) pin. To Labists' credit their customer service were very helpful and sent me a replacement after some basic troubleshooting. After a week with the replacement fans the same thing has happened though. It's just not a good quality part, but on the plus side I just blue-tacked the damaged fan and the cooling solution seems ample just with a single one running.

I've got this as i have a full automation project in mind at home that requires a little bit of an extra kick and after finding out that the 8GB Pi4 was released this seemed like the logical selection. The kit includes a really nice ready to go setup with a ton of accesories, including: Pi4 (8GB), HDMI cable, case, etc (case includes heatsinks and screws needed) aswell as a 128GB SD card with Raspbian pre loaded. It's a really compact setup that packs one heck of a punch and looks like it will go above and beyond my needs.

It's a nicely thought out kit, with all the bits you need to get started, but it does take some force to seat the board properly (so the audio jack clicks into place).3 stars because after a week or so I have an annoyingly buzzy cooling fan. I've unscrewed it from the heatsink, and if that works I will disconnect it, but the rest of the kit is decent so this was a disappointment.The NOOBs Pi is good for total beginners. Once that was running I used the Pi to write the latest Raspbian image to a new SD card, and it's now a Nukkit Minecraft PE server.

This is an amazing and versatile device that can be used in so many different manners, it can be a smart make up mirror for the better half that has lights but also allows them to watch an episode of Netflix or check the weather forecast.It can be a multi room control panel for your smart home system a general tablet for walking around the house or function as a digital picture frame.Its a great device with so many uses and in a night stylish and modern package. It's lightweight, easy to use and has a nice high quality display.
