It has been said again and again, but this is a very common misconception. The memory is a soldered on extra chip. It's not on the SoC.

- foldr 6y agoIt’s in the same package as the SoC, so no, it’s not soldered separately (but it’s not on the same silicon chip).
- rickdeckard 6y agoThat's some weird semantics. It is very much soldered separately, they are separate components soldered next to each other [1]. (Yeah, on a own sub-PCB, but still) If that's not "soldered separately", then we might as well zoom out and apply that statement for the whole PC ("all components are in the same package, only the charger is separate") [1] https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/ZRQGFteQwoIVFbNn https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/ZRQGFteQwoIVFbNn
- foldr 6y agoAh, my bad - should have looked at the board.
