On a related note, I just got my Pine64 Pinebook Pro, and it's much better than my beloved Samsung xe303c12 in all apects. Lightweight, FHD screen resolution. No need to fiddle with the OS.

I'm still waiting for mine, it seems like the most viable option for someone who wants to develop for armv8 Linux. I had the original PineBook and found it disappointing, how would the PineBook compare to, say, a MacBook Air?

Screen bleeding is an issue. Otherwise, a great small laptop.
