Try a quick tap on the power button. Or the shift key but that's more for screen blanking.
On the stock Stretch which I installed LXDE to instead of using Mate: I can just close the lid. When I open it the power light is a different color, and if I tap the power switch it changes and the machine is active again. It doen't always work, apparently it's a difficult thing to implement and that goes back years before the Pinebook.
That's not a true suspend though where the memory gets written out to the hard drive/mmc/sd//ssd and the CPU shuts down and doesn't draw power. If I power it up a few hours later the battery has less charge.
