The PinePhone has 2 Gb of RAM, which is plenty for a smartphone (especially running Linux). You can put in a micro SD card to get more storage.

Android and postmarketos are both linux in the same way as whales and rabbits are both mammals. It's true, but not usually the useful way to compare them.

I’ve used laptops with that little ram. Don’t rub gnome or chromium and it’s fine.

PostmarketOS is based on Alpine, it's minuscule in comparison to Android.
