Updated: Jan 17, 2023



Hello Khadas Community!


We are writing this newsletter to inform you that our Spring Festival Holiday will start on January 19th and end on the 28th. During this time, our responses to your support requests on Khadas Forum will be slower than usual and new orders from Khadas Shop will not be sent out. If you are in urgent need of Khadas' products, orders from Amazon.com or AliExpress.com will still be shipped immediately. What's more, you could also order from our distributors.

 

Shipping of Edge2 ARM PC

You will be delighted to know that we have just finished shipping out all the pre-orders for the first batch of Edge2 ARM PCs.

Unfortunately, the Edge2 ARM PC is now out of stock. However, we can still accept orders for it. The second batch Edge2 ARM PCs will be shipped in March 2023.
