3GB is not a lot, I would like to be able to attach the phone to keyboard/mouse and a big monitor and use it as a "portable desktop". I realize that's a big ask. But you have the flagship samsung phones(I realize they're $2K or whatever) that have 12GB of RAM in them... that's the kind of RAM I'm looking for even 8GB is almost not enough.
Granted I imagine you can't spin up VMs on these mobile processors, maybe... I'm on web-side dev so I guess I don't need too much to work with but RAM is usually the problem for me, even with a tiling manager.
I will also add, it's probably one of those "fantasies" that may not make sense. How often do you have a setup somewhere that's just a monitor/keyboard/mouse and you bring your phone to dock with it. Maybe it's very specific instance it happens. But I do like that idea of a "full compute" from mobile. Which again "use a cloud IDE etc"... but idk, would be cool, one device.
