At the current rate we will soon have phones with 8GB RAM and who knows how many cores not having to rewrite same code 3 times in 3 lang. will def. be catching on more.

If by soon you mean in 2 years on flagships (looking at current specs, I don't buy it), then for regular users buying regular smartphones it'll be ~7 years from now.

I don't feel like this is a valid justification for being wasteful, though.

The OPO 6 is out now with 8GB RAM, so no not in two years, let alone 7.

That's an outlier, pretty niche one at that.

(Personally, I didn't even realize OnePlus phones still exist - I thought they died out somewhere around OnePlus 3.)

Actually, now that I'm looking into it - the OPO 3T had 8gb of RAM as well :P It's been a while!

I do think though that we will only be seeing more and more of this, and very soon.
