AIY Voice Kit v2 (includes Raspberry Pi Zero WH) [discontinued]
Yes, only two stars.
I spent one month buying cables and accessories, trying to connect the box. Sometimes I bought wrong ones because it was not clear what you should buy and why. For example, I had to buy keyboard just to enter password and never used it again. This is wasteful.
It would be beneficial if connectors to a laptop or PC were included. They only cost 5 GBP, but would make a lot of difference to a user.
The box is made of the cheapest materials. It costs 46 GBP, pi zero costs 11 GBP, speaker costs 5, sd card - 2. What is the rest of the price for? Cardboard box?
I had to etch programming 3 times, it was giving me the error.
python voice_recorder.py gave me an error. Lots of unnecessary issues at every step.
Overall a nice product, but overpriced and underthought. Surprised to see Google name on this.

This I a great kit for all ages but you would need an adult to help with the software. I like the fact that it gives you easy access to the spare GPIO pins that the hat doesn't use so that you can easily integrate it into a project.

Half expected to get the "latest" version, google have released a new design, don't know about differences but newer is most often better :/

Not being one of the lucky few to receive this free with the MagPi, I finally bought one.
I was impressed with the design and ease of assembly, obviously a lot of thought went into it.
With regard to the software side of things- the included MagPi excerpt is a little lacking. There are changes to the software since original publication so you MUST check the website for the updated procedure. A few places it’s not made clear where the AIY files are stored.. best to use file browser and check yourself.
While it leads you through the set up procedure, I felt that it could have done with more explanation of some of the modules, rather that expecting to follow by rote.
All in all a nice little unit, I haven’t explored it in depth but have a few ideas of apps/skills to write for the platform.
I look forward to the Vision unit being released in the UK.

I would class this as an intermediate project.
The hardware assembly is straight forward and downloading the Google version of Raspbian and installing on a SD card is well documented. There are some test scripts to make sure everything is working and also some demo scripts, so you will have a working Google Home by the end of chapter five.
It becomes more of a challenge when you want to take the next steps.
The excellent guide has many more advanced examples, but a knowledge of Python programming would be an advantage, so you could start modifying the examples for you own ends.
I would recommend working through a beginner’s guide and learn some python first. Once you have that under your belt then it would be a great first real project.
The main thing is to have fun!
