With soldered RAM and eMMC storage, this is not “a consumer-ready experience.”

    8GB of RAM and 64GB of storage.

    Common, my ARM $200 pinecone laptop from idk 2019? Has like that much.

    If you offer soldered only, don’t put too little of it? Wtf.

      This isn’t really a „just solder more of it“ situation. This is the absolute maximum amount this processor can support due to it’s bandwidth etc.

      Remember, this is mostly about making a more or less recycled SBC more accessible for development work. If you want to do pretty much anything besides ensuring compatibility of your own software this is not for you.

        A SOC that can’t handle more than 8GB of RAM?

        Sorry but that seems worthless to me when there are already raspberries, smartphones, other SOCs with 8GB.

        As for “recycled SBC”, well that’s expensive then.

        I just don’t see the value in this.
