- In this video we'll unbox, setup and review a Raspberry Pi 4 8GB start up kit from Canakit. This is a basic kit that gives you everything you need to set up the included Raspberry Pi 4 microcomputer except for the video screen, keyboard and mouse. So if you're like me and had those spare computer components lying around, you may want to check out this review of the Canakit starter kit for this newest version of the Pi 4 with it's maxed out 8 Gigabytes of memory.
We'll show you everything that comes in the kit and how you put it all together to have a functioning Raspberry Pi 4 and give you our honest impressions. Normally this sells for $119 on Amazon.com which is where we bought this one from. I did have some issues with some odd bands showing on the video screen, likely due to filming 30 frames per second while the screen was projecting 60 frames. Apologies in advance for that, but I thought it was important enough content to not edit it out.
This kit comes with a "Premium" Black Plastic case that snaps together easily, along with the power supply, one Micro HDMI to regular HDMI cable and a 32GB micro SD card that is preloaded with NOOBS so you can get yourself up and running as soon as you fire it up.
So if you're considering buying this basic Canakit to avoiding having to buy all the parts you need separately, this may be the video for you. Hope you like it! - Věda a technologie
I like how calmly you explained this. I got one of these as a gift from my technical school for passing the A+ exam and I am so excited to set it up !! I have the starter MAX kit, wondering what the differences are. Good video!
ordered this online today, first project im doing with a Pi. Couldnt believe the 8gb was on sale cheaper than the 4gb
Thank you so much man! I subbed and look forward to your channel!
I got the same kit for Christmas and I use android 11 to run emulation games and other software on the Pi. It runs very well there are tons of videos on how to install android 11. Also great video!
Thanks, Bob. Great information on Android 11 on the Pi. I’ll have to check that out.
The "USB heatsink" you didn't use, put it on the power regulator chip (next to the USB-C connector.
Cool suggestion, Dave, (pun intended), I’ll do that. Thanks!
Apparently they are now making rispberry pi 5 that can have 16 GB of ram I think. Great video.
So I’ve heard rumored as well. Can’t wait to see what they’ll do with that but will enjoy my Pi 4 in the meantime.
@@smithbotics4158 :).
Yay
Thanks for the encouragement from an obvious Pi fan!
Just Try STM32F103C8TX blue pill it support two I2c three usart dsp resolution of analog is high it also make DSO oscilloscope
Point of order, the network speed is gigabit not gigabyte. small thing i know, but it does make a big difference. kind of like saying bandwidth = speed which it does not. otherwise very informative and nice video.
Thanks, James. And point well taken. I appreciate you allowing for the clarification to be noted for the record as I'd misspoken on that point during the taping.
@@smithbotics4158 sorry. being in the field of network engineering it just is a pet peeve. also, love that heat sink kit you have. went and found one to purchase for myself since it looks pretty handy.

OMG. Edit out all the time you spent agonizing over which heat sinks to use. Just use what was provided and move on with your life.
Sorry you found that part so excruciating. I also see videos at times where I’m not interested in certain parts, but I normally just use the forwarding button to skip ahead a bit. Thanks for the feedback though.
