Vilros Raspberry Pi 4 8GB with USB-C & Micro HDMI Adapters Quickstart Guide E-Book (8GB)

I purchased this to make my own tablet to replace our ipad mini v1. It worked great and my wife loves it. Inexpensive compared to a new ipad with more capabilities.

Expensive for the price. There are better deals if you look around

Tried to install Official latest Ubuntu for pi4 on this and it boots up but HDMI output doesnt work at all, plugged it into 3 different monitors/TVs. It does boot but HDMI doesnt work so its useless. Next I tried official NOOBS version Raspbian and that works but Video Codecs are SLOW, probably not using hardware acceleration. ALSO its impossible to get 4K 60hz HDR output. So it is pretty Useless to play videos, regardless of its gigabit ethernet. I tried Libreelec, again impossible to get 60hz HDMI output, only 30hz. Videos do play smoother better in Libreelec than in Raspbian so guess they fixed some hardware acceleration issues in Libreelec, but cant get 60hz 4K even after editing config.txt and adding the 4kp60 lines etc...I have a cheap over year old $30 s905x based android tv box and it does 4K 60hz HDR output with no issues and plays back all videos (HEVC x265, h264 etc) smoothly (with VLC, see my review of it). By comparison the Pi4 is an overpriced pain that wastes your time with buggy software. If you want it for GPIO diy stuff maybe its fine since you write your own software, but for other purposes like video playback, forget about it, at least until they actually fix all the bugs and are able to properly make use of the hardware capabilities.

This is actually the second one I bought from the vendor. Perfect accessories for my needs. I had no issues bringing the Pi4 up. Great package for updating a Pi 3b+. I did not download/review the Quick Start Guide, I am sure new users will find this helpful.

Got it to use for the family as a retro console. The 2 GB model is already overkill for this. Works well with iNNEXT SNES Retro controllers and Flirc case. I got the old revision but it works just fine with the Vilros power supply. Highly recommend either a passive case heatsink or active cooling, with good air flow.

Product is excellent. Working perfect, no issues. most of the application do not required any cooling!

This thing can do basically anything you want it to do. It’s awesome !

It comes with low-profile heat sinks, a must if you use a HAT on your R-Pi. Also the adapters needed to connect to regular Pi power and HDMI.

My son loves it

I love it! Ive already purchased more to run as a cluster!
