Review: 5 Stars for performance and functionality, and 5 Stars for Fit, Finish and Aesthetics - The best balance of all factors for choosing a case for your Raspberry Pi. Brought my Temp down by 10°C-12°C This Argon Neo case is the best balance of all. It is refined and professional looking, while still offering access to the GPIO and camera ports. It looks like a finished product, not a project. I've had the CanaKit case, the "Official Raspberry Pi Case", the Argon One and the Flirc - all for Raspberry Pi 3 B+'s. All those cases have there pluses and minuses. (And I'd be fine to use any of them) See below: -Canakit - Cheap, good airflow, well made and allows access to GPIO and ports - a little cheesy looking though with the Raspberry Pi logo cut out of the lid -The "Official RPI Case" by Adafruit - same as above but much nicer looking - although the new ones for RPI 4 seem to only come in pink/white (yuk) - My only real dislike of this case is that the top is curved so you can't stack them (if that even matters) - Flirc - Awesome build quality and similar to Argon Neo for cooling - more work to get to GPIO (4 screws) but has a slot that you can route a ribbon cable through. - I consider this case best for when you know exactly what the RPI's purpose is and you don't need to get inside anymore. (It's silver - I personally prefer the Neo's charcoal) - Argon One - The best if you are using your RPI as a desktop computer or game console - has the best cooling in the form of the case being a heatsink as well as having a fan. The Argon One also has the benefit of a little add-on board the moves all connections to the rear of the case - this is both a cleaner look as well as reducing wear to the plugs on the RPI itself. The Argon One also gives you a power button on the back so you don't need to be always plugging and unplugging power. The only potential drawback to the Argon One is that it is near twice the size of the other cases, but that shouldn't matter if you're using it as intended.
Review: Great Case! Cools Raspberry PI! - Summary: A proper Raspberry PI 4 case with a decent heat spreading passive solution. Good price range and looks nice design wise with a sliding magnetic panel for easy access. Easy assembly. Let me just start off with one main thing I've had with some Raspberry Pi cases of other brands, I've tried out a few other cases before across multiple Pi versions and I've had issues with assembling some of them, either due to the screws or the instructions being off. (Not related to this product) One of the Raspberry Pi 3 cases I tried to install ended up damaging my micro SD card and my port being destroyed. Due to this I needed a proper case that wasn't going to wreck my micro sd card port for my Raspberry Pi 4 when I actually put the case together and or removed the case!. Back to the product, I'm glad however that this case was easy to assemble and the instructions were also rather easy to follow, it's pretty simple steps. I do really like the look of this case, and love the magnet sliding panel it has. One other feature I find neat for future projects is that the case has the GPIO pins labeled. (Also my micro sd card is fine and so is the port!) Since this case is an overall heat sink, it does a decent job keeping the temps perfect, It's running around 48C and this is also with a slightly overclocked CPU frequency + no fans. The case does get warm to the touch which is good because the heat dissipation is working. Without the case, my PI would get pretty hot and sometimes throttle depending on the loads. Overall with the case design. It's slick with the case allowing you to see the indicator lights easily and allows you access to the micro sd card slot. I've noticed some other cases simply don't even allow you to access the micro sd card slot making you have to tear the entire case apart to swap cards. For my needs and first impressions and tests it does check my checklist. If you need a proper case that isn't complicated to install and want a slick case and better cooling. This is the case for the price point.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has anyone tested this case with wifi and bluetooth? Does the case prevent these radios from working?**
A: I have a very similar case as this for my pi3 and I haven’t had any connection issues with Wifi or bt.

**Q: How much clearance is there (for a hat) between the plate on top of the pi and the top removable cover?**
A: I can't give you a measurement in e.g. millimeters, because you gotta close the case together to measure the space. But it's enough for me to successfully install and run with the official Raspberry Pi PoE HAT, which is a pretty chunky one.

(Not sure I recommend using the PoE HAT in this case, though, because the fan on the PoE HAT can't blow on the CPU directly, or vent out of the case. So one secondary-but-essential function of the HAT is pretty useless.)

**Q: Approximately what is the clearance between the top of the pi enclosure and the removable cover?**
A: Almost zero.  The tops of the screws do not touch the cover but there is basically no room between the HAT and the cover.

**Q: Does the new rpi 8gb fit?**
A: Yes, all models of the Raspberry Pi 4 (1Gig, 2Gig, 4Gig, and 8Gig) fits in this case.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Attractive, functional, affordable RPi 4 case
*by J***E on March 6, 2021*

This is a very sturdy case that provides excellent thermal dissipation for my RPi 4 4GB while running the official PoE Hat. Even with the lid installed on the case my RPi hasn't exceeded 42C. I know it is not recommended/designed to leave the lid on while running the PoE Hat, I've had no problems with it to this point. The installation was pretty straight forward and easy enough to do; takes less than 10 minutes even being careful and perusing the manual. The Argon Neo is a very good case, don't think about it, just buy it.
