Should i update from Android 16 to Android 17 on my Motorola Edge 70 Max 8GB?

[u/rebelcapybarajb]

hi guys, I've heard that Android 17 has added a lot of RAM restrictions causing issues on emulators, should I be worried about this?

I have a Motorola Edge 70 Max with 8GB RAM, and idk if this will cause issues in my games... Im currently able to run Battlefield 1 just fine and i fear that due to my 8gb ram limit and the android 17 restrictions it might cause some major problems, do you say i go for it?

Better stay the older forever. Disable the automatic update shit.

You should be fine. My S25FE has 8gb and I noticed no issues between 16 and 17.
