I chose the NP1 because it already has LineageOS support, so I will most likely still get community updates, even when official ROMs are not released anymore. MediaTek is notoriously difficult to work with in the open source community, so it seems like a bad choice for a phone. I’ll probably pass.

That sounds like a technology like zRAM, which compresses the data in memory so you effectively have more RAM, but it costs CPU power and battery life.
I wonder how much physical RAM the device will actually have.
