On the devices page of the wiki, the PinePhone pro is in the "testing" list, which has this description:
"All other device ports, including new ones. Maintainers can create merge requests to move devices to community if requirements are met on the Device categorization page. A more detailed view with a full status matrix of these devices can be found on the All devices page"
The normal PinePhone is one of the main devices, so it seems that that one has way better support.

As the sibling comment said, it's officially in testing phase. It already works quite well in my experience, the reason why I am not daily driving it yet is that it does not get calls and text messages while in stand-by (as of a few months ago, at least).

This is some good background info: https://drewdevault.com/2022/01/18/Pine64s-weird-priorities....
TL;DR: Pine64 creates the hardware, but pretty much depends on the community to get software support. As a result, software support for the Pinephone Pro is incomplete. That being said, PostmarketOS probably has some of the best support for the Pinephone Pro
Was that a mistake or does it get lumped together with the OG PunePhone?
