Question: Do I need new beta build? - Momomentum - 10-23-2020

I was wondering how to deal with the different releases. As manjaro is based on a rolling release, I would guess that updating via pacman should be enough to keep my phone updated. But maybe having device tree and boot scripts for pinephone are exceptions and I need to reflash whenever there is a new build posted?
Thanks in advance for your information!

As with any rolling release, the moment you update you are on the latest version. If they ever change from a rolling release and make stable releases then you may have to re-flash (probably not though) but until then you are totally up to date the moment you run `sudo pacman -Syu`.
