Thinking of buying a new phone, is 8gb of RAM good enough, or should I get one with more than that?

I have a current phone with 4gb of RAM, it's kind of slow and gets confused when I open too many apps :patrice:



Is 8gb of RAM a big improvement from 4GB of RAM?

Should I buy more than 8gb of RAM, or would it not make a difference?

Look into Xiaomi phones , you can expand the ram using the phones internal memory or a flash card. Either the note series 15 and up or the new Xiaomi 17 pro max. I got a note 14 and the new 17 pro max and the run like flagship phones. My wife got the new iphone and likes mine better the screen is brighter and the battery last longer and it has a screen on the back camera bezel.

Look at your performance menu in your current phone and see how much ram you're currently using. The amount of ram you need will be determine by what apps and widgets are running on your phone. If you're just using your phones to make calls and take a few pictures here and there and browse the internet I say keep your current phone.

:dahell: Fam I thought you was iPhone gang? The fukk going on?
I do have an Iphone 16 and an Ipad that I got from work , Google, Xiaomi and Samsung phones are still better , take better pictures and battery last longer. Only thing iphone got better is resale value :manny: once you understand android and use it is just a more complete environment, for example if I'm remote somewhere in the mountains in DR I can run a lot of stuff I can't do on IOS like running torrent and newsgroups clients and downloading 🏴‍☠️ content. With iphone you can but you have to jailbreak to do so.

Man's currently got a Nokia Brick

Nah I have a standard phone, just don't see the use to buy a so called top notch phone
If I were to spend $1000, it would be on a Laptop, because you can do so many things with a Laptop than you can with a phone

The only thing I do on my phone is talk on the phone, text, browse a couple pages in the internet, use Google maps, etc. That's it. Why the hell would I pay $1000+ for that? It's idiotic
