@freundTech Yes, it does use microUSB instead of USB-C. It comes down to using an existing tablet case mold -- one which has a cutout for microUSB. Mold alterations range from very expensive to very impossible.
I won't say a USB-C version will never happen, but it's not in the works that I know of.
That could very well be possible.
@PINE64 Oh how I waited for that post :)
@PINE64 yay, PineTab update!
for what it's worth, I'd love to get my hands on one already. even if it can only be used as laptop-with-a-touchscreen, not as standalone tablet.
@PINE64 hecc, I'd even preorder one if it meant I was guaranteed to not miss out on this batch.
@PINE64 Quick question regarding the PineTab: The product page says that it has a Micro USB port. Is that correct?
Are there any plans for a USB-C version in the future?
