To whom it may concern, I want $100 grapheneos phone.

The DDR ram costs more than the phone now. Wish I was joking. =3

  • Pretty much, but you would be surprised at just how low some of these phone RAM setups can go.

    I had a low end Oppo 'something', I remember the RAM had a 16bit data bus, the whole thing had a peak theoretical bandwidth at just over 4GB/sec. That phone sauntered through the workload at the best of times. The Mediatek chip was probably not the weaklink for once.

    On the upside the battery could go well over a week between charges.

    • China already has domestic Flash and Dram fabs that are growing rapidly.

      Xiaomi and Huawei will likely adapt their supply chains accordingly. =3
