Can you please forward the link that suggests you can upgrade memory?
>From my research, the memory is not upgradeable. There was no "empty SODIMM slot"? Though there could be an M.2 slot for adding an extra drive. My challenge with such videos on YouTube is many variations of models, and whether the one I buy is exactly the same model as the one I am watching. After purchase the model can be slightly different from the ones in video.
Maybe I found a different model?
The below videos suggest the eMMC is soldered in, but there is an unused M.2 slot into which you can install a M.2 NVMe drive.
