I'm guessing that like the Raspberry Pi, this is using only one chip, maybe two for memory. These small devices are getting penalized pretty hard for that because one 8GB chip is way more expensive than two 4GB and so on.

My partner and I refer to the remote on that thing as "the bean"

I wonder why so much memory is needed to watch video.
