The new Raspberry Pi 5 with 16GB of RAM works great with Pilet. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/soulscircuit/pilet-opensource-modular-portable-mini-computer

Some not-even-so-new phones have 24! Insane shit, I know…
What's even more confusing, in most cases all this goodness is used to render glorified web apps
@muelsyse
For real? Even in case with this behemoth it's all marketing?!

They just allocate a swap partition on a phone and claim it's RAM?!
I'm pretty sure I've seen others, something by Xiaomi from 2023, but with that phone it might very well be the case because it was a special edition of some model only available in Chinese markets, basically an overpowered midranger.
Special editions tend to go overboard so I don't doubt that it's true. With that said, most Chinese companies love to include swap into their RAM advertising, calling it real RAM.
Mine is a POCO X6 Pro for reference. Thankfully all this 12GB is real RAM

I have Poco X3 Pro and its 8 Gb is still plenty for me, newer Poco phones lack the 3.5 mm jack and I really like my Sennheiser Momentum wired headphones. Something like Redmi Note 13 Pro would be nice, but on the other hand, like I said, I'm never using even the resources of the phone I have. My phone has 256 built-in storage and with 200 Gb SD card it's pretty close to 512 Gb models — so even the storage space isn't a problem, no point in upgrading really

The last time I checked that a phone has 24GB of RAM, half of that came from the SSD
That said, my phone does have 12GB of LPDDR5X. It's actually very good on paper but the OS holds it back
