About the Pinebook - What to expect

[pfeerick]

Of course I checked the specification of Allwinner A64 and nevertheless I wanted to have it and I ordered it. I am looking forward to my Pinebook, because I always wanted to have some Android notebook and I loved this idea of Pinebook from very beginning.

I was just asking the users about their experiences with real use, so I would know what to expect from it, that is all.

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. I haven't run Android on mine yet, but the linux image pre-installed seems to run pretty smoothly. Ditch firefox ASAP, and install chromium, and you'll be able to browse the web without much drama. I have a Asus TF-101 tablet (now ancient) with a lock-on keyboard, and have found using it with android to be a great experience, but the pinebook is way faster than it, will run just as long, and is running a more open and configurable OS, and the minor niggles with the software are being fixed.
