Pros & Cons
Pros
Everything is soldered with high quality. Easy to put together, though the slot to fit the camera board holds it loose. All the additional cords have been great and essential to a frustration-free play thing.

This is a relatively powerful raspberry pi but if you decide to use a product like this to control cameras or use opencv it may not be powerful enough for your application and a larger pi may be better
