I received a new Unihiker board a few weeks ago, and I just started playing with it this week.
It's kinda interesting with a mix of features including a display with touch screen and a nice set of GPIO pins with both connectors and microbit style edge connector.

The Unihiker comes with an OS already installed, and you can start programming right away with a browser based Python package using Jupyter Notebook.
I'm surprised at how easy it was to start working on a project and get it running in just a few minutes.
DFRobot is running a contest also right now, so if you have a project idea you should sign up.
