They say you can never have too much RAM. This is true, although it should be noted that in reality not all devices need the same amount to ensure satisfactory operation. However, smartphone manufacturers seem to have a different assumption.
How much RAM is too much RAM?
I still remember very well when I bought the Huawei P8 Lite and was happy that it offered “up to” 2 GB of RAM, while in a similar budget it was possible to buy basically smartphones with only 1 GB of RAM. However, times are changing, but despite the passage of time, there are still models with 4 GB of RAM on the market, although it seems that today this is not enough and the minimum is 6 or even 8 GB of RAM. .
And here’s the personal thing again: when I got my OPPO Reno 6 Pro 5G two years ago, I was wondering how I would be able to use the up to 12GB of RAM that this smartphone had to offer. And you know what? I still don’t know, because even though I sometimes run a dozen or so apps, I’ve never been able to “fill up” the entire 12GB – first-run programs often start again after returning to them.
My own observations show that – at least in the case of Android smartphones – most users do not need a lot of RAM and 6-8 GB is quite enough. Yes, the more the better, the more you think about the future, because it’s no secret that apps are becoming increasingly resource-intensive, and more RAM could actually come in handy in the future. But does it really reach 32 GB?!
The first smartphones with 32GB of RAM may appear on the market soon
Several gigabytes of RAM are provided mainly by smartphones and flagship models intended for gamers. In theory, both types are intended for demanding users, although the truth is (dare I say) most owners of high-end devices don’t put much effort into it and most of the time a good chunk of RAM simply sits unused.
However, manufacturers love to charm customers with numbers, and it so happened that recently the first smartphones with 24GB of RAM appeared on the market – Redmi K60 Ultra, OnePlus Ace 2 Pro, REDMAGIC 8S Pro+ or Realme GT 5. It is said that OnePlus They will also be joined by 12 people and we wouldn’t be surprised if this list gets longer. However, another device can be built alongside it – devices with 32 GB of RAM.
Where do such assumptions come from? famous detective from china, digital chat station, A message has been sharedThat manufacturers are already testing smartphones with 32GB of RAM. He didn’t mention any specifically, but we’re definitely talking about Chinese brands, as they are the ones most likely to load massive amounts of RAM into their models. At the moment, it is not known whether it will end only with tests, but if you hear that a new smartphone will offer up to 32 GB of RAM, you will not be surprised.
