Is there any actual benefit for so much RAM in a phone? Outside of a higher number for marketing and increasing the price? And does this also increase power consumption or is there any benefit to more RAM that counteracts that?
Personally i am still waiting for phones to become proper desktop replacements, in which case i’d maybe see more use in this. They already have more than enough performance for the average user, since 9/10 people probably just browse the web and do some general office work.
The benefit is they can run more bloatware in the background
Pretty much what I think, it’s just bad marketing.
No one need 24gb of ram on a smartphone and only very few on computer.
If you thought the 12 to 16GB of RAM offered with most flagship Android devices today is enough
You’re wrong, I thought 6 to 8GB of RAM were enough. I’m still rocking my OnePlus 5, and seeing their last few years I don’t think I’ll get another OnePlus smartphone.
If you need more RAM on a smartphone than on a laptop, you’re doing something wrong. You can’t solve everything by just adding more RAM
Gotta make it more expensive somehow. And while we’re at it let’s remove some more customization options.
Bold of XDA to assume I’d buy a other OnePlus phone, it’s been all downhill since the 7 Pro…
Lol since the 5t
Ahh yes. I can run a few more chrome tabs.
Bold of you to assume I am buying anything in this economy.
This is just “big numbers better.” I can run a lot of apps on 16Gb RAM in pc, why would a small one can’t?
When a phone has more RAM than an Nvidia card, 4090 not included.
Finally can play Genshin and PUBG split screen
They added a $3 SD card!
Wow
The time to run LLM’s on phones has finally come.
Works decently well for me with vicuna 7B on a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra.
