PineBook Pro new model?
#13
Frankly speaking, if properly configured I think this machine is perfectly fine. Except for one major effing flaw that's really annoying - protracted heavy use can easily drain the battery into complete zero even with the power supply attached, and it doesn't even matter how powerful the PSU is, the machine simply won't take more power than certain limit. And unfortunately that limit is below the maximum it can consume. So if there is one thing I'd like to see in a new iteration of PBP it's making sure that given a sufficiently powerful power supply the battery will not drain even if I have screen set to 100% brightness, simultaneously running speedtest non-stop, building kernel, and repeatedly backing up the internal eMMC to an external USB drive. Or if it does drain then it takes not just few hours, but at least a good full day.
