Pinebook Pro Review - US$199 Linux Powered ARM laptop

Part <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgNYQsdxlMw> of a series reviewing an ARM-based device that is not a Chromebook. Seems to have remarkable build quality for its price, offers versatility for those who like to tinker, and the battery life and performance are also quite reasonable. The main downside is some issues with multimedia in browsers (e.g. YouTube).

I have one on order. It is due to be sent in December but I am not sure that I will get it before I go on holiday so may not have it in my possession until I get back in January. Cheers Michael.
