I can’t use one with less than 16gb because iPhone or Android simulator will chew up memory.

I'm having no trouble running xCode + iOS simulators at all. In fact I think there's some possibility that the iOS simulator could be lighter weight due to ARM -> ARM rather than ARM -> Intel, but that's pure speculation.

Not currently doing any Android work so I can't comment.
