I also have a desktop machine which is a ROCK64 with 4GB RAM.
My mobile phone is an increasingly archaic Samsung Galaxy S4 with a large battery such that I don't need to be overly concerned about charging it.
I use an old Samsung N140 netbook for serial access to single board computers so that I can debug the boot sequence or update router firmware when necessary.
Notes
I'm currently typing this in Emacs org-mode, which I use for nearly all kinds of documentation.

Other
My main project is called Freedombone.
The desktop is environment is LXDE, which takes minimal resources and keeps out of the way.
