Well, more RAM will always help. An iPhone with more RAM will allow it to perform better than one with less RAM. Similarly, too little RAM will hamper performance regardless of the device.
Okay. But why is it that Android phones don‘t all just have 128 GB of RAM built in, then? I‘m still talking about smartphones only. And there, RAM is completely irrelevant for users unless it‘s a necessity for the OS and for apps to run well. This is the case for Android smartphones. This is not the case for iPhones. Because everything you want to do just works, without thinking about RAM. This has been the case since the iPhone X.
But here it seems to be really hard to accept that getting an iPhone is the far superior choice for many people, also for tech savvy people. While others choose an Android smartphone and are happy with that.
And for computers: just accept that it‘s plain economy calculus to offer 8 GB RAM as standard because this will lead more buyers to choose an upgrade and pay more than the standard price, instead of accusing Apple to offer this without this plan in mind. Just don‘t buy these machines and continue your life as a superior tech being, where companies like Samsung or Dell have the sole purpose to make as little profit as possible.
there’s this thing called multitasking, you might have heard of it. when you want to open more than one app and use them all at the same time, GUESS WHAT BRIGHT LIGHTS? Takes more memory.
Sure. I have just never encountered any problems. I used to, to be honest, as mentioned back with the iPhone 4 where Safari tabs were reloading because of the lack of RAM. But Android had its own problems back then, for example with the update policy of most manufacturers leaving my wife‘s Android phone obsolete after only one year.
What exactly do you do? Hook up your smartphone as a desktop replacement with a bulky USB dongle, firing up some CAD software on two 6K displays while rendering an 8K HDR video in the background? People never disappoint creating completely made-up scenarios just to discredit.
Never talked about tablets, so it’s reading – again!
Okay bright lights, sure thing, you stick with your tiny amount of ram and see how that works out in the future. Meanwhile the rest of the world will move on.
It’s funny, though, that ram is a commodity and you’re fine with apple’s ridiculous upsales, to the point where you’ll claim there’s no need. Frankly I’m surprised you’re not rocking an OG iphone with that attitude. You do you, keep simping for apple, stay in the 2010s. Aloha, from the future!
Gonna block you now so I don’t have to reply to another stupid comment.
The whole world will move on, sure. But I think you‘ll stay wound up a little longer as this brain sprain of yours seems to have worn you out quite a bit. I hope, AI may solve this problem for you in the future. I heard loads of RAM help with that.
That‘s exactly what I was criticizing. So how is “more RAM = better“ as an absolute statement right, then?

jfc this is inane.

This is the dumbest shit take I’ve ever seen.
I‘m talking about smartphones. Funny that you‘d call me bright lights when you even lack the basic skill of reading.
Never had any problems with „multitasking“ there since the iPhone 5.
LOL, you think people don’t multitask on smart phones and tablets?
oof… and yes, on android you can have both open on the same screen at the same time. I don’t know about fischer price unix, er, aye-aye-aye-os…
nah, didn’t misread, you’re def the sharpest tool in the spoon drawer.

I mention tablets because it’s the same os - iOS or Android - on both. tsk. guess you forgot that point.
or it never occurred to you. bright lights indeed.
You still haven‘t come up with a multitasking smartphone use case that an iPhone can‘t handle compared to an Android smartphone due to lack of RAM.
Okay bright lights, sure thing, you stick with your tiny amount of ram and see how that works out in the future. Meanwhile the rest of the world will move on.
