What do we think ?

We LOVE the shortcrust raspberry pi its a super sleek case that looks so much nicer than a simple single colour case. The price is amazing for how gorgeous these little cases are. Available in black and white with a smoked cover you can see the internals with ease. I have to give them credit for also creating a case that enables you to simply add additional components without having to shell out for a new case. It is also worth noting that because the design is modular you could just keep stacking and stacking to hold larger boards.

However we would like to see a version that looks identical with the smoked tinted top cover, but the bottom half made out of metal to get that Pi overclocked. As a general case though the simple snap in design is easy to use and something that isn’t possible with most metal cases.

Overall a case is a case, but the short crust plus is cheap and looks great, it is really that simple. Don’t forget to check out one of the best places to buy raspberry pi equipment Pi Supply. They sell an awesome range of products, ranging from addon boards to cases to satisfy your geeky needs.
