Greater than one weekThis case is awesome. I own a lot of Pi cases this is my first official case and have to say this thing is perfect. Dont know why I waited so long to get a official case this is much better than all the cheep acrylic cases out there that cost more than this. The Raspberry Pi Foundation hit a home run with this case fits like a glove everything snaps together no need for screws and holds it in place tight with a little see through window for the LEDs to be seen. Will be buying more of these when needed.

> 3 dayThis this is built like a tank. It is the official case for the raspberry pi3 as well. It comes pre-assembled. Which probably helps it survive shipping. It came in a plastic bag with no instructions. Took me ten seconds to figure out how to disassemble it. Though I had watched a video that covered this case awhile back. That might have helped. The pi snapped securely into the base. Then it was just a matter of putting everything back together. Which went really well. This case is built for any possible usage scenario (except extreme conditions, it isnt liquid or fireproof I think). It is the go to if you are not for sure what the board that goes in it is going to be used for. The top comes off, the sides come off, and even the inner shells top can be taken off without fear of the pi coming loose from the bottom. It is in the mid price range for these cases. It isnt as cheap as possible. Those cases can be good to and just as durable. There usefulness is a lot more limited though. As each one tends to be designed to fit only a extreme sub-set of usage scenarios. It is very fancy looking. More expensive cases again are more fancy looking. Then again, they also tend to be designed to be put to use for a specific task. What this case has going for it is looks and versatility. I am not a fan of the color scheme and I absolutely detest company logos on the products I buy. I have taken a shine to this case though. The logo and color scheme is fitting. It is the official case for the line of products that are to go in it.

> 3 dayThese cases are perfect for the pi3. Very sturdy and come with rubber feet. I also have the clear plastic case, but this one seems much higher in quality and feel.

> 3 dayNo instructions, which is okay since it is pretty easy. Unfortunately there is a small hard to see slot where your memory card is supposed to slide into from the bottom. I already had mine in and it broke in half when I was trying to shut the case. Feels pretty flimsy I wouldnt use it for more than a dust cover, Im pretty sure it would blast apart at the slightest bump. Every seam has a gap. Overall I am pretty disappointed that this is the official case.

> 3 dayeasy to snap together, got very hot when the top was on, so now my pi 3 lives in this case without the top...

> 3 dayI am quite impressed by the quality of this case. It fits the raspberry pi 3 perfectly, and has a ton of details that I wasnt expecting. From the labeling of the ports, to the rubber mounting feet, and even a place for the leds to shine through, this is a well designed case. Im sure there are better cases out there, but in the <10 buck range Im quite impressed. My only complaint is that it only comes in two color variations.

Greater than one weekI bought this for my pet turtle as a new shell. Nevermind you what happened to his old shell, he picked this one out himself and it was his birthday so I was more than happy to get it for him. The package arrived as expected but it did not fit the turtle at all. In defense of the product, the turtle was dead before we tried fitting.

Greater than one weekIts good. But if youre not going to be opening the case often, go with something that has screws to keep it together. This is better for when youre constantly tweaking the hardware.

> 3 dayGreat case, fits my pi very well. Doesnt block anything I need to get to. I feel comfortable keeping my Pi out in the open with this case on. Protects it well and looks good.

> 3 dayI tested 4 different Raspberry Pi cases, and so far, this one is my favorite. Its very easy to assemble; the pieces click together without having to put too much force; its easy to open it; and if youre using your Pi for some DIY projects with external parts (GPIO etc.) its very easy to open just the top, or just the side (to access the GPIO header).
