Hi just wanted to ask all the FLX1 users what their minimum RAM requirement is currently?
For example in my case with android running and many applications installed (a bunch run in the background incorrectly SoundCloud, WhatsApp, AMEX etc.... sucking up memory), software store launched, a few app launched like Tuba, Firefox, Geary I see my use case requiring about ~10-11GB (I am using 6GB of swap so the phone UI won't freeze). This is not with heavy use, but initial use after phone start and launching a few apps.
In my case I think 12GB should be the minimum for RAM. Not having to rely heavily on swap would increase UI speed, maybe increase battery life?

I am mainly using Linux, but some very RAM-intensive applications like automatic speech recognition and natural language processing. I was hoping that a successor of the FLX1 will have 12 GB or 16 GB of RAM.

RAM isn't really going to be a major issue for me as I'm pretty careful about even installing many apps, let alone running them.
I'm interested in this possible "sister device", but would like to know the details about it and what the timeline is to be able to get my hands on one.
I did pre-order for an FLX1 in early April and was hoping to have it by about now to use as a new daily driver, as I'm needing to replace a 13 year old device before 3G service ends in Canada.
Hopefully Furi can expedite providing info and production of whatever might be coming in the near term.
