I doubt they will inflate BOM by $100. Excessive RAM also hurts battery life.

- seanmcdirmid 9y agoRAM and flash are different things. More of the latter won’t hurt battery life very much.
- supertrope 9y agoI think parent poster is referring to DRAM. 8-16GB of NAND is low even for budget phones. Desktop-like docking implies the need for 64-bit worthy amounts of DRAM.
- seanmcdirmid 9y agoConsidering that even the iPhone X comes with 3GB of RAM (the 8 only has 2), the other way doesn’t make much sense either.
