I wouldn't mind just one screen size. The main reason I won't buy another Android tablet for the foreseeable future. Is that none of them support them long term. I have three different ones from the last 10 years. All of which we're doing good just to get one OS upgrade

I mean yeah better OS upgrade support would be the bees knees. But at 13" may as well just get a proper laptop or a Lenovo Duet, in my opinion.

I got an old Chromebook tablet and tossed post market on it. I wish it had a bit more ram. 4gb. But other than that more than adequate. Best 50 bucks I've spent o. A tablet.

Are you running zram or zswap? They can make 4gb surprisingly useful.

Actually plasma mobile is more than adequate for this device. It works great. Granted the desktop once it's loaded takes up a little less than half the ram. But that 2 GB still allows me to do some pretty heavy browsing video watching even painting in krita.
