In a related question, how would you guys translate прошивка then? What about "firmware?"

От себя: лучшая как по мне прошивка, что перевод, что автономность порадовали.

neutral  VASKON: Это верно, если бы речь шла о процессе прошивки (как отглагольное существительное). Но в примере речь о самом файле или пакете с кодом. Просто, он тоже называется "прошивка", но по-английски это разные вещи.
