I think this wide approach works really well with their goal of community driven development. All the hardware variety gets more people interested and more people contributing. A person who cuts their teeth on one device might be a pioneer for the next one.
I feel I'm a sucker for these devices. I love all of them =)
The pinebook pro caught my attention first (actually bought both an ANSI and ISO variants). Then the pinephone was delivered to my house. The pinepower followed shortly thereafter by the pinetime. I am anxiously awaiting for the pinenote to develop into a useful device, and I'll prolly end up getting that as well.
I've had a great experience with nearly all of the devices. The pinephone is a bit anemic power/ speed-wise for me to use it often, but I knew that going in. It still has a lot of potential and development on the software side has been fun to watch.

I would very much love a PinePhone, but I'm married to the Samsung Note stylus. Is there any really good active stylus, that works as well as the Note? I don't need any particular app, just using a stylus on the screen for general use (clicking, swiping, keyboard, long-press) would be great.
The rubber stylii are decent for clicking, but horrible for swiping.
