Understanding the Pico phone
We built the Pico phone in 2021 and published it as a Hackster project (https://bit.ly/3pY7J5e). The project originated when we wanted to evaluate a cellular module. We chose this project to describe the product development process because it was one of 21 featured projects of 2021 (https://bit.ly/3CXh3ec) and it was also featured in the March 2022 edition of the Hackspace magazine (https://bit.ly/3CYAJ1l), which was published by the Raspberry Pi foundation. The magazine is free to download.
