Beginners • Re: Advice on Hardware

While I suspect this might be "for profit" motivated I will offer some advice.

I respect that you have stayed true to your values and only reiterated what has already been said.

Not everything was reiterated. No one else mentioned the [3]A+. For some reason folks tend to forget they exist.

Whether the increased cost and convenience of [3]A+ vs zero[2w] and mini HDMI adapter is worth it is up to the OP. Either option is going to cost less that a 4B and uHDMI adapter.

A quick look at a single UK retailer shows:

• 1GB RAM 4B, uHDMI adapter: £37
• Pi zero, mini HDMI adapter, 40 pin header: £14.10
• Pi zeroW, mini HDMI adapter, 40 pin header: £18.90
• Pi zero2W, mini HDMI adapter, 40 pin header: £18.90
• Pi1 A+: £19.20
• Pi 3A+: £24
