No it didn't, it had a video out socket.

Micro:bit has a display, 2 buttons, tilt and magnet sensors, and a battery socket for power.

Surely it's like the Acorn BBC, loads of I/O, well designed software, and people complain it's more expensive than existing systems.

I only see 25 programmable LEDs, but no display.
