This is my hand held raspberry pi project.
The case is designed by me and is ongoing.
I use Tinkercad to design it. I 3D printed the parts on my Creality CR10S. The design is modular. The keyboard is removable by sliding it off. I plan to make different modules that can be swapped depending on what you want to do. A keyboard for typing, a controller for games, and a couple ideas i had. I plan to sell the housings.

I have actually redesigned this project and it now has a pi4 in it. I removed the usb and ethernet ports to slim it down. I will update this project this weekend.
Yes the pimoroni drivers can be a pain. My suggestion is to start with a fresh install of raspberry pi os.
Awesome, really nice hand/pocket pc. I was trying to build the same project but with a rpi 4. Sadly I have a huge problem with drivers/hardware for the pimoroni 4.0 sq touch screen. What version of raspbian are currently running on rpi zero 2w board ?
please try to make one to work with rpi 5 just keep 2 usb ports im sure u will make a sick one
