Customizations or upgrades?

You can also install a M.2 NVMe flash drive, (NOT M.2 SATA).. Check the end-user verified compatible list. Their are many that simply use way too much power. Here is a link;

The current Pinebook Pro CAN'T take any more memory. It's a limit of the SoC, (System on a Chip).

Their is a possibility of a new notebook computer from Pine64. It will likely have more memory, faster CPU, etc... But, Pine64 tends not to make public commitments until they can reasonably supply the product. At current guess, we think at least 1 year, and with the world the way it is now, possibly 2 years.

Thanks. I'll keep an eye open for when they start shipping new devices. I like the Pinebook Pro's form factor, it's basically the same as my MacBook Air Mid-2012. I'd love to give it a try, but also would want to have something that I could use as a substitute for my Mac but there aren't that many Linux ARM laptops to choose from.
