### AI overview

PINE64's April 2025 community update covers improvements to the PineTab2, PineTime, and PineNote; the PineTab-V's return to the store with a Debian and GNOME factory image; and the upcoming StarPro64 SBC, which includes an Eswin EIC7700 SoC, 32GB of LPDDR5 memory, and a 20 TOPS NPU.

### Source excerpt

Hello and happy April! The past few months have been relatively quiet on the surface, but there is a lot going on behind the scenes. During the past three months we have seen some improvements for the PineTab2, PineTime and PineNote, along with the announcement that the PineTab-V is back in store and the new micro soldering tip set for the Pinecil. Charlie the Pinecorn also makes his yearly appearance in the update banner, artwork made by Caffeine. We have been very happy with the feedback after the launch of the PineNote Community Edition. Users coming from the developer edition with Android have been able to successfully move to the new Debian firmware without any major issues (thanks Maximilian, Diederik and hrdl!). We'd also like to apologize as we had most of this written up around late February early March and things got busy. Thanks for waiting patiently! We're making sure to focus on getting the word out than increasing the word count from now on.

FOSDEM 2025 Author: Caffeine Thank you to everyone who came past the pop-up meet-up at FOSDEM, it was fantastic to see everyone and be able to say hello. As mentioned in the previous update we weren't allocated a table this year, but we managed to meet with community members at Bar Campouce. We hope to get a table for next years event. PineTab-V Author: Caffeine We are happy to announce that the PineTab-V is back in the store! Last year we reported that the PineTab-V would be going on sale in October, unfortunately this did not happen due to there being no default OS to send to the factory. Thanks to our friends over at StarFive, they have kindly built a working image to send to the factory (thank you!). The image is based on Debian with a Gnome desktop. Much of the hardware is working including the cameras, WiFi and GPU accelerati

### AI overview

Pine64's November 2024 community update introduces the PineCam, a successor to the PineCube based on the Oz64 single-board computer and SG2000 SoC. It also provides updates on other Pine64 projects and community activities.

### Source excerpt

Welcome back to a new monthly Pine64 community update! This month we are announcing a couple of new products including a SBC and a successor to the PineCube. We have updates to share about the PineNote and the PineDio USB adapter this month along with a talk by one of our community members Dsimic. Table of contents PineCam Yuzuki Avaota-A1 PineNote Attention to all users who have ordered/received a PineNote For general users wanting to purchase a PineNote PineNote News PineTab-V BarCamp Talk About Pine64 and Ox64 Handout PineDio Community content Monthly community updates Want to contribute to the next community update? PineCam Authors: Lukasz, Caffeine The first new device we will be introducing this update is the PineCam! The PineCam is a successor to the PineCube IP camera, but with a much more polished design, better specifications and more features. While the PineCube didn't achieve the success the project had hoped for, we believe it wasn't due to a lack of interest in such hardware, but rather the way it was executed. We've gathered feedback, learned from what went wrong, and have gone back to the drawing board. This time, the PineStore have decided to take a different approach, using a System-on-Chip (SoC) already in our hardware lineup. The device includes more RAM (compared to the PineCube's 128MB), and utilizes a camera interface that "just works". The PineCam is based on the oz64 single board computer which is powered by the SG2000 system on a chip found in the new Oz64. The SOC includes two RISC-V cores (C906 @1Ghz + C906 @700Mhz) and one ARM core (Cortex-A53 @1Ghz). You can find more information on the specifications of the Oz64 and the SOC it's using here. The device features 512MB of RAM, providing just enough memory to run a full Linux-based OS such as MotionEyeOS, a popular surveillance camera operating system. Specific to the PineCam now, the device includes a 2MP camera module which is the same one found in the PineTab 2/-V (the GalaxyCore GC02M2

### AI overview

PineTab-V and PineTab2 launch with pre-orders starting April 13. Both tablets have the same display, cameras, battery, USB-C connectivity, detachable keyboard, storage options, and $159 starting price. PineTab2 uses an Arm RK3566 SoC and ships with DanctNix Arch Linux for Arm, while PineTab-V uses a RISC-V JH7110 SoC, ships without an operating system, and is presented as an experimental development platform for improving Linux support.

### Source excerpt

The PineTab2 and PineTab-V pre-orders begin on April 13th. Both tablets feature a 1200x800 10.1" IPS LCD panel with wide viewing angles, a sturdy metal metal chassis, two USB-C ports (1x USB 3.0, 1x USB 2.0 with charging), a digital video out port, a front 2MPx and rear 5MPx camera as well as a 6000mAh battery. Both come bundled with a magnetically fitted detachable backlit keyboard (connecting via pogo pins using USB 2.0 protocol) that doubles up as a carry case, and are available in two hardware configurations: 4GB LPDDR4 RAM / 64GB eMMC 5.1 flash storage and 8GB LPDDR4 RAM / 128GB eMMC 5.1 flash storage. Finally the PineTab2 and PineTab-V both start at $159. On the outside the only thing that differentiates the two devices is the color of the chassis: the PineTab-V is deep matte black while PineTab2 is silver-gray. But the real difference between the two resides on the inside. The PineTab2 features the well supported RK3566 64-bit Arm SoC, which has been a part of our line-up for over a year, and the tablet ships with a build of DanctNix Arch Linux for Arm. The software can be best described as early but very serviceable, and there is little doubt that before long improvements will be made and additional functionality enabled. Like the PinePhone and PinePhone Pro before it, the PineTab2 will reach a high degree of functionality in time and make for a great work or entertainment travel companion. First image: PineTab2 PCB with RK3566. Second image: PineTab-V with JH7110 Unlike the PineTab2, the PineTab-V is based on the JH7110 64-bit RISC-V SoC. In late 2022 we announced our plans to help grow the RISC-V hardware ecosystem alongside our existing Arm-based device line-up (see 2023 Sneak Peek section in December Community Update) - to this end the PineTab-V is to the Star64 single board computer released earlier this month what the PineTab2 is to the Quartz64. The JH7110 RISC-V SoC, and the RISC-V architecture in more general, is currently best described as having l

### AI overview

PINE64's March community update announces April availability dates for Star64, PineTab2, and PineTab-V, and covers PineNote development, software progress, and PineTab2 performance expectations. It also reports recent attacks on the PineStore and other community updates.

### Source excerpt

We end the first quarter of the year with news that Star64 will be available for purchase on April 4th and that the PineTab2 and PineTab-V(ery good!) will launch the following week on April 11th. In this month's update we also cover PineNote development (I know many of you have been waiting for this) and discuss how software on the device has really taken off in recent months. Finally, CounterPillow - a key RK3566 community developer - sets the expectations for the PineTab2 with some real-life performance examples. Strap on your unicorn horns because there's much ground to cover this month - let's get to it.
