Raspberry Pi 400 and 500 • Re: Pi 500 build problems

I don't find the flexing any different to my Pi400. It all sits square on my desk and when out and about. Perhaps you just have a bad one. Ask for it to be replaced.

I also didn't experience any more flexing on the keyboard than the Pi 400s I have, so I wonder if there may be plastics variances with some batch... or something else? It's hard to quantify flex based on feel though.

The keyboard of the Pi 500 feels slightly better than the Pi 400 to me, but it's still a far cry from a dedicated keyboard. I like a solid metal base, would be fine with the same keys though!
