Linux laptop manufacturer Pinebook has unveiled plans this week to launch an affordable system in the form of the Pinebook Pro which will be available to purchase from $199 and feature a Rockchip RK3399 SOC with Mali T860 MP4 GPU. Offering the ability for users to have either Ubuntu and Debian operating systems installed.
“The Pinebook Pro linux laptop is meant to deliver solid day-to-day Linux or BSD experience and to be a compelling alternative to mid-ranged Chromebooks that people convert into Linux laptops. In contrast to most mid-ranged Chromebooks however, the Pinebook Pro comes with an IPS 1080p 14″ LCD panel, a premium magnesium alloy shell, 64/128GB of eMMC storage, a 10,000 mAh capacity battery and the modularity / hackability that only an open source project can deliver – such as the unpopulated PCIe m.2 NVMe slot (an optional feature which requires an optional adapter). The USB-C port on the Linux laptop, apart from being able to transmit data and charge the unit, is also capable of digital video output up-to 4K@60hz.”
