The testing and stable branches of Manjaro Plasma are not updatable also. I see work being done on the unstable branch, maybe it will be updatable today yet.
The unstable branch of Manjaro Plasma is still not updatable on the Pine Phone Pro as of July 18. After software updates newer than June 29, the Plasmashell interface will not start.
Of course, the Tow-Boot option of starting Mobian Phosh instead is very usable.

I am not sure but I think Manjaro Plasma project is stopped or at least slowed down significantly after Dan left the project.
New packages are coming when upstream does something but I am not sure is there anyone who is actually testing and would make sure everything works.
I think at the moment it might be easier to use Arch or Postmarketos if you want to use Plasma.
Today's update of Manjaro Plasma will not boot. Here is a script I will use in order to continue updating without a reinstall. I run it on a Mobian installation on the optional microSD chip. I run the script from root on Mobian with Manjaro mounted on /home/d2. Afterwards I am in the Manjaro environment, but safely on the Mobian kernel.

Code:
#! /bin/bash
cd /home/d2/root
mount /dev/mmcblk2p1 /home/d2/boot
mount --bind /proc /home/d2/proc
mount --bind /sys /home/d2/sys
mount --bind /dev /home/d2/dev
mount --bind /run /home/d2/run
chroot /home/d2
