  • I remember getting a PineBook Pro when it came out. Seemed like a great machine but the screen failed in less than a week. Thankfully they refunded me but it was disappointing.

    • Mine is still working. Armbian is great on it, though I still wish I could get hardware video decoding working in-browser. Best I can do right now is GPU OpenGL acceleration, but any site with video maxes out the CPU and kills battery life.

      That all said, I love the keyboard on it.

      • Armbian was the most promising when I had mine, but still wasn't ready. I just couldn't get into manjaro, but every time I loaded a new OS the screen would die, come back, flciker and a "shadow" around the perimeter of the screen.

    • I still use my Pinebook Pro as daily driver (next to a desktop pc) and I‘m actually quit happy with it. It’s not the most powefull machine but it does it‘s job.

      Also I never really experimented with all the special distros. Nowadays I just run plane Debian on it and everything seems fine.
