I need an Android device for archival purposes, it has several requirements and I would appreciate any suggestions. I’ve done some research myself, but I would appreciate it maybe you know of something I haven’t discovered.
Requirements:
- Must fit inside this Faraday pouch, or a different one that is of a similar price, and is both water and fire proof
- Must support an open OS (Degoogled, rooted Android ROM or Linux - both support touch interfaces, Kiwix, and storing and viewing files)
- at least 256GB internal storage to store the files
- at least 8GB RAM for running local AI models, preferably nearer 16GB
- Good battery life, since it will stay inside the pouch most of the time and I don’t want to have to take it out to charge it every day
- As cheap as possible
I have no other requirements, it doesn’t even have to have a camera, let alone a good one.
Thanks for all your help!
Why do you want a mobile device specifically?
It should be able to move around, if that’s what you mean, easily, as a desktop wouldn’t fit in the pouch or be simple to use. I’d prefer a touchscreen so I dont have to put a keyboard in the pouch, but it doesn’t have to be a phone. It could be a small tablet.
You’ll have a hard time running AI on relatively affordable mobile devices
I mean, I can run it on my moto g73 that cost £200 and has 8GB RAM. It’s slow, but I can.
If it’s not a phone why does it need to be in the pouch?
Actually just what the fuck are you trying to do “archival” wise that needs AI and for it to be in a faraday cage?
I want a device with lots of information on it, a couple of AI models, and a simple and intuitive way to use them that will be safe in the pouch if something happens to my other devices.
