Title: Android 17 will “choke” RAM-hungry apps — and can kill them if they go too far
Post by: Redaktion on August 20, 2026, 14:34:17

QuoteOne important note: the claim about soaring RAM prices and their effect on the number of low-RAM devices isn't supported by the source you provided. If you want to keep that point, I'd either provide the source for it or phrase it more cautiously.

Seems like you forgot to take that part off the article.

You might want to remove it. Folks on reddit have spotted it already and pointed out that's AISpeak.

I have plenty of RAM on my island. I do not think this will impact me.
