To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

Great Packaging Team

The Teensy 3.2 I ordered arrived very well packed. I am impressed. I have yet to implement it in my project and can't comment on the items operational status. I have no doubt that all will be good.

Great company to order from!

I really appreciate the attitude of Core Electronics, they go out of their way to ensure you're happy with your order. Shipping is quick and on the rare occasion it happens, they make returning DOA items incredibly easy.

Quick delivery of great IoT products

Quick delivery of the IoT products I needed, even during lockdown! Core Electronics has a great range of products and very helpful video tutorials, datasheets, and reviews. Thanks to them, I've now built a little IoT device to measure electricity import and export, for only about $25 total.

Hi Albert,

I am thrilled to learn that you found our support, guides and resources helpful, along with everything else that our team of full-time makers offer to Australian makers and educators with their projects.

It would be sensational if you could please edit your review score, as it has a negative impact on our business. We offer services far beyond point-of-sale and work incredibly hard to help out Aussies however we can with their electronics endeavors, a little appreciation is always welcomed.
