512GB internal storage? I doubt it. The larger phones are at 128GB now. We'll probably start seeing 256GB later this year or next. And 512GB by about 2020 or 2021.
As far as 8GB of RAM, what are you going to use it for? You're basically running one app at a time, the Android memory manager can still handle almost all apps in 1GB, so 8GB would just be overkill. If you regularly (every few minutes) switch between apps, and you're switching between 5 or 6 of them, okay, but if you're switching between say a password safe and a browser, 2GB is enough to keep them both in RAM. (Remember, if an app's in the background [not currently on the screen] and Android needs the RAM space, it can just kill the app. That takes microseconds at most. Then, when you bring the app back to the screen, loading it doesn't take long.)
I'd rather see 1TB internal storage and a much larger capacity battery than 8GB of mostly useless RAM. Or just give us back replaceable batteries. (And an SD card in the Pixel line - just make it impossible to move any apps to it.) That's about my ideal phone - my Pixel 2 with an external SD card and a replaceable battery. (They'll update Android until R, so I'd like to keep it until S, unless some great new hardware comes out [I got it to have a fingerprint sensor], but I doubt that the battery will last that long.)
