Suggestion for Android device for archival purposes? - eviltoast

I need an Android device for archival purposes, it has several requirements and I would appreciate any suggestions. I’ve done some research myself, but I would appreciate it maybe you know of something I haven’t discovered.

Requirements:

  • Must fit inside this Faraday pouch, or a different one that is of a similar price, and is both water and fire proof
  • Must support an open OS (Degoogled, rooted Android ROM or Linux - both support touch interfaces, Kiwix, and storing and viewing files)
  • at least 256GB internal storage to store the files
  • at least 8GB RAM for running local AI models, preferably nearer 16GB
  • Good battery life, since it will stay inside the pouch most of the time and I don’t want to have to take it out to charge it every day
  • As cheap as possible

I have no other requirements, it doesn’t even have to have a camera, let alone a good one.

Thanks for all your help!

    Could you extend on the “archival” parts a little? What would your daily(?) use look like?

      Storing Wikipedia (using Kiwix), various media files (TV shows, movies, books), an LLM (using Layla Lite if Android, Jan if Linux), Stable Diffusion (SDAI if Android, Krita with AI Diffusion if Linux), and if there’s enough space left some games, and then putting it in the case so it’s safe in the event of an EMP/Solar flare
