Apple does not announce or pay too much attention to the iPhone’s memory (RAM) size, one of the big reasons is that the iPhone was able to beat the Android competitors with smaller memory, in today’s easily 12GB, or even 16GB large memory Android camp, do you know how much the iPhone maximum memory?
Foreign media 9to5Mac has counted the memory size of previous iPhones, from 128MB in the original iPhone to 4GB in the iPhone XS, and the latest iPhone 14 is only 6GB.
The reason why Apple’s iPhone has so little memory and can achieve a smooth experience is mainly that the company manufactures both hardware and software, and precisely fine-tunes its devices to make them as efficient and powerful as possible. . One example was in 2019 when an iPhone 11 Pro Max with 4GB of RAM beat a Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ with 12GB of RAM in a speed test. The tight integration between iPhone hardware and iOS makes up for the memory difference of more than 8GB. The same is often the case with iPads and Macs versus Android tablets and PCs.
