Trying out the Kitronik Inventor's Kit for the BBCMicro:bit
Assembled base board and added a Micro:bit then did Experiment 1 on p 14 of the manual.
Button A displays a :) smiley face and button two displays "Hello World!". These are then jumpered to external buttons.
All OK. (I hadn't realised I only needed the battery pack for standalone mode!)

Just tested an Inky Phat for a Raspberry Pi Zero W. Magic!
Great quality display even with the power off!

Currently I need to enable SPI and I2C using "sudo raspi-config" beforehand.

Just finished assembling the :MOVE mini for the BBC Micro:bit. Great fun :)

Sadly to trim the servo motors (which can start to move by themselves you have to dismantle the whole unit to get at the screws to do it). But should be great fun to use as a chart plotter, etc.
