It has an LED light display, buttons, sensors and many input/output features that, when programmed, let it interact with you and your world. The new micro:bit with sound adds a built-in microphone and speaker, as well as an extra touch input button and a power button.

"Once in a blue moon, a technology comes along that meets the needs of learners, classrooms, and is sufficiently powerful to create opportunities beyond the limits of our imagination. The BBC micro:bit may just be that rarest of edtech unicorn."
"My husband was in urgent need of a flexible document camera a couple of weeks ago. He called in instead of usng the website and spoke directly with Matt (hope I'm getting that right). Matt helped him directly over the phone and express posted a great camera to him the very next day. Outstanding and very timely service with a really good product! Highly recommend."

"Matt and his team are incredibly helpful. They are very knowledgeable about their products and give great advice as to which devices would best fit when looking for new ideas for ICT integration. They will even provide the training!"

"Thank you! You are legends. Ordered a last minute present for my daughter midday yesterday. Forgot to specify free skin of choice, annoying but ... receive a call 2 hours later organising the free skin. Order shipped. Received in Adelaide today. I NEVER thought this present would be here in time for her bday, even with express post during these times! And for you to follow up on the freebie and taking that care and time...I am blown away!"
