A friend of mine waned to buy infinix s3 which was released last month but don’t know much about phones. Someone suggested she choose the 4 ram. i heard that ram affects maintaining background running apps, is this the only purpose of RAM size ? for me i will be only needing more of a great gaming performance for a mid-range phone.

Anigreat: I think that's the work of the processor. RAM Just helps you keep multiple apps running at the same time. The More the RAM, You more apps you can run simultaneously without any of them closing. 3 Likes |

felasey1: RAM generally does not make your mobile faster, it just allows it to do more things at once. e.g If a single application uses 97 MB of RAM, it won't matter if you've got 2 or 4GB of total system memory, but if you've got 10 Applications open using 97 MB each, then you are probably going to benefit from a ram size. 3 Likes |

RAM - random access memory. A phone's RAM is going to be much, much faster than the 8GB-64GB storage you use to store apps and music. cc: Lalasticlala |

Ram is what makes your phone runs smoothly without lag/freeze/hanging. The more ram your phone has the better/more the number of applications it can handle at a time 1 Like |

felasey1: How many tasks or multi-threads can your phone handle, plus the number of tabs in your browsers? Can you play HD games like need for speed, god of war,GTA San Andreas....listen to music, downloading and chatting without it freezing, ALL AT ONCE? That's the RAM at work. 1 Like |

let me explain better. I had 8gb of ram on my pc. Which was a gaming pc. Core i7 with gtx 960m.so I said to myself the pc is fast already. Fso I took out 1 stick of 4gb ram and sold it, lol. So I was able to play games without lag cause my gpu and cpu was bad ass. But then I tried playing fifa 18 remember I have free ram like 3.5gb free ram sometimes. Or 3.0gb free. But when I ran fifa 18,the ram was only 200mb free ram, my cpu tried its best including my gpu, but it was dropping fps and sometimes freezes. So I thought, upon I have a gaming pc, but still ram affected it. Na so I upgraded it to 16gb ram. And that's what I use now. My games are now bad ass. I get upto 80fps on low setting. 1 Like |

Psychodavidovic: giftedben:Says who? OP, RAM (more is always better) definitely boosts the speed of a phone. Although not considerably, the added advantage will definitely be there. The primary reason for more RAM is what everyone's said already. Now, lemme chip this in, RAM with poor optimization is a huge blunder! Some phones have 3/4GB ram but their ability to multitask doesn't surpass some other phones with 2GB ram.... It's a long one but this will certainly do. 2 Likes |

More ram is better. when you have a lesser ram, and you have lots of apps open, if you try opening another app, lag comes in because the OS is trying to purge other apps to free more memory for the app you want to open. More Ram is also responsible for smoothness, not necessarily speed. |
