This Pico 2 W board builds upon the success of the original Raspberry Pi Pico by adding 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity. The pre-soldered header makes it incredibly easy to connect to breadboards and other components. The RP2350 dual-core processor provides ample processing power for a wide range of projects, and the addition of wireless capabilities opens up a whole new world of possibilities for IoT and connected devices. It's a versatile and user-friendly board that makes it easy to explore the world of wireless microcontroller development.

RP2040 is one of the most popular microcontrollers and RP2350 is the successor which came out not too long ago. It's backwards compatible with RP2040 code, so if you have original Picos, you shouldn't have any issues running those same programs on a Pico 2. This one comes with headers soldered on, always nice to save time on that myself since I mostly use these for prototyping as I tend to opt for even smaller mcus for my embedded projects.

This is a good, barebones starter set for the RPi Pico 2W. The board itself works as you'd expect it would, and had no issue running any program files I loaded on it.The pre-soldered headers are a nice touch, especially if you don't have the skills or tools to solder them yourself.

The UeeKKoo Pico 2 W with Pre-Soldered Header Compatible with Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W RP2350 Microcontroller Board with 2.4GHz 802.11n Wifi 4 and BLE 5.2 has a decent build quality. This board adds wireless capability to the popular Pico 2 board. A programming cable with a micro-USB connector is included. Before using the Pico 2W board, you need to install microPython by flashing it with an .uf2 file. It comes with great online documentation and the link is included in the bootloader. The online documentation also tells you where to download the .uf2 file. This is so refreshing to see as many MCU boards I have reviewed failed to include any documentation.After you download the .uf2 file, you can boot into the bootloader of the board by holding the “boot” button on the board before plugging it into the computer. Wait until a folder pops up before you release the button. Just drag the .uf2 file into this folder and if everything is done right, the folder will close and the board will reboot.I used Thonny to test the Pico 2W board under review. With the board already plugged into my Windows laptop, I opened Thonny and selected the proper COM port for the board in the lower-right corner. Then I ran the little microPython script and everything appeared to work fine.from machine import Pinimport time# Set up GPIO pin 0 as an output because GP25 pin 25 does not turn on the LEDled = Pin(0, Pin.OUT)while True: led.value(1) # Turn on the LED time.sleep(3) # Wait for 3 second led.value(0) # Turn off the LED time.sleep(1) # Wait for 1 secondBasically, I toggled GP0 output pin for 3 seconds high and 1 second low repeatedly. I used my multimeter to measure the voltage on Pin 1 of the board and I observed that the voltage stayed at 3.3V for 3 seconds and 0V for 1 second. So it appears the basic function of the board is working. I did not test the wifi or Bluetooth wireless interfaces.The onboard LED, which is supposed to be on GP25 from the documentation, does not work! I am not sure why. That’s why I needed to use a multimeter to measure the voltage on Pin 1 (GP0 output).Overall, the basic functions of the UeeKKoo Pico 2 W board appear to work well with Thonny 4.1.7 and Python 3.10.11 on a Windows 11 laptop. The fairly extensive online documentation provided just makes the product so much more user-friendly. Even though I could not make the on-board LED work, the board is still a good collection for me.

UeeKKoo Pico 2 W.This board is a nice little Raspberry Pi with Wifi and Bluetooth on board.There are videos and instructions everywhere for this board, so it is a good one to start with.The wireless makes it much easier to work with and there are all sorts of projects to get your feet wet.The small form factor makes it very useful for IoT projects.The board build is excellent. Everything looks of good quality. The presoldered header saves time and you won't be trying to debug something with a solder bridge you left.I wish the micro-USB was USB-C, but it works fine as it is and comes with a cable.I have no hesitation in recommending this board at $23.

Not as well packaged as what you might get from any of the other major tech sellers but it arrived nice and safe and works well. I have a number of these already and can vouch for this seller!

I'm new to Pi, and initial bought a Pico not a W. I soon worked out that getting data off the device without a network interface was not trivial. This Pico W adds WIFI and Bluetooth. I'm tinkering with a data logger for temperature but having trouble getting consistent readings out of the board. Chances are very good that I'm doing something wrong, rather than it being a problem with both the Pico W boards I obtained.This is a good board. It feels well made and the soldered pins mean less fuss with the hardware and more time with the software. So far I'm quite pleased with it.

While more or less fine, the pin headers weren't properly soldered square to the PCB. While that usually isn't a big deal, it wouldn't fit into a solderless protoboard without an inordinate amount of force. I needed my panavise to press it into place! With my soldering iron, I could have fixed it, but then that defeats the idea of buying this product. This is probably just a QC problem.

I've always been the type to buy a kit and put things together. Sometimes for fun, sometimes for the savings in expense. However, these little pre-pinned picos are worth every penny more than a unsoldered board. The solder is done well and the pins are perfectly aligned. Which is way more than I can say when I solder them up. Pico 2s are fantastic little "thousand uses" MCs or just for a dev board to explore the split personality of ARM and RISC. Everything came in a nice static bag and included debug pins and jumpers. Highly Recommended!

I feel they're a bit overpriced from the MSRP, but at least they sourced me a USB data cable, and saved my health by doing the soldering for me.I bought 2. Both in good condition and work without problem.

I am an embedded developer (or at least in the past) and still build on my own. I have a pretty vast experience, and surprisingly haven't really treated myself (my own projects) to some of these amazing hobby boards out there.With built in wireless and bluetooth, I was able to quickly setup a touch Tft screen and a temperature and humidity sensor, a gps sensor, and integrated an AI project I have been working on through the wireless abilities. Speaking of which, I am really impressed by the wireless abilities. I can see why products like Flipper0 exist lol.For the price, these things are deftinitely worth it. I was able to very quickly, get up and running and productive. There is a ton of support, libraries, discussions and projects freely available out there, one just has to do a little digging depending on what it is (display, sensor, etc)Great chip for beginners as well (in my opinion). It is still a level of advanced given the nature, but once you are on Everest this is more like base campFor the price and what you get, a definite 5 stars. I just really wish I had these when I was growing up!

It’s the new Pico 2 W, with wifi and Bluetooth and the 2350 chip. Really, what more is there to say? This is a great development board, with all the community support of raspberry pi enthusiasts everywhere. This board comes with a micro-USB cable, since the Pico and Pico 2 have a micro USB connector. The board works fine, and was instantly recognized by my PC (via U disk). If you’re even looking at this, you probably already know what it is. Although the 2350 chip is not a huge upgrade over the 2040, the addition of wifi and Bluetooth are the real upgrades here. Great board. 5 stars.
