The PineTab was a bestseller, according to this and other news provided by PINE64

A few hours ago, PINE64 posted your monthly newsletter telling us about your progress. Among them, something that stands out is the information related to pinetab, the tablet of the company that can be booked from June 10. Or it could, since, they say, stocks were exhausted in less than 3 days (72 hours). The trouble, at least for those of us who manage to reserve one, is that we will have to wait a bit to receive our "toy."

And it is that in the newsletter, in addition to reminding us that the reservations were opened 12 days late, they have also told us when they will begin to be sent: in the second half of July. That is exactly one month from now. Therefore, the first lucky ones will receive it within 30-33 days, but others who live in Europe still have to wait another week. Speaking of delays, the reason for the PineTab was shipping situations for other PINE64 products, such as the PinePhone and Pinebook Pro.

The first PineTab will start to arrive in a month

They have not mentioned how many PineTab had been made and exactly how many have been sold, but they do claim that hundreds were sold a day. It is something that surprised them and now they are working to extend production in the immediate future. At the moment they have more information to offer, they will report on social networks.

On the other hand, PINE64 has also told us about the PinePhone (we will talk about it in a future article) and the PineTime, the watch of the company that has matured a lot in the last two months. Part of this evolution is published in the Medium by Lup Yuen Lee, where the developer assures that they have implemented firmware updates without cables for the clock.

Returning to the PineTab, we will have to be patient. A tablet that allows us to test Ubuntu Touch at the lowest price, and other operating systems as well, it is well worth it.
