How Much RAM is Good To Have In An Android Phone?

RAM, or Random Access Memory, is crucial for a smooth Android experience. It's the short-term memory of your phone, holding the apps and data you're currently using. More RAM means you can run more apps simultaneously without experiencing lag or slowdowns. But how much RAM do you actually need?

The answer isn't a single number. The ideal amount of RAM depends on your usage. A casual user who primarily checks social media and emails might be fine with less RAM, while a power user who runs multiple demanding apps (games, video editing) needs significantly more. Let's break it down:

What Different Amounts of RAM Offer

• 2GB-3GB RAM: This is considered the bare minimum for a functional Android experience in 2024. You'll likely experience lag and slowdowns if you have many apps open. Only suitable for basic usage.
• 4GB RAM: This is a decent amount for everyday tasks like browsing, social media, and streaming. You'll have a smoother experience than with 2GB or 3GB, but multitasking might still be a bit challenging with demanding apps.
• 6GB RAM: A solid choice for most users. This allows for comfortable multitasking and running more demanding apps without significant lag. It's a sweet spot for balanced performance and affordability.
• 8GB RAM: Excellent for power users and gamers. This provides smooth performance even with multiple resource-intensive apps running concurrently. This is becoming increasingly common in mid-range and flagship devices.
• 12GB RAM and above: This is generally found in high-end flagship phones and is overkill for most users. It guarantees exceptional performance and allows for future-proofing, as apps become more demanding over time. However, the performance gains over 8GB might not be noticeable for everyone.

Factors Beyond Just RAM

While RAM is essential, other factors affect your Android phone's performance. These include:

• Processor (CPU): A powerful CPU complements ample RAM to provide a better overall experience.
• Storage (Internal Storage): Sufficient internal storage ensures that apps and data can be loaded and accessed efficiently, impacting overall performance. Slow storage can bottleneck even a phone with plentiful RAM.
• Software Optimization: How well Android is optimized for the device plays a significant role. A well-optimized system can run smoothly even with less RAM than a poorly optimized one.
• Background Processes: The number of apps running in the background consumes RAM. Closing unnecessary background processes can free up RAM and improve performance, regardless of the total amount.

Choosing the Right Amount

Consider your needs. If you're a casual user, 4GB of RAM is likely sufficient. For multitasking and moderate gaming, 6GB is a good choice. Power users and gamers should aim for 8GB or more. Remember that while more RAM is always better, it's not the sole determinant of performance. Balancing RAM with a capable CPU, fast storage, and well-optimized software creates the best user experience.

In conclusion, there's no magic number when it comes to RAM. Your choice depends on your usage habits and budget. However, 6GB to 8GB of RAM provides a solid and future-proof experience for most users in 2024. Always look at the complete specifications of the phone, including the CPU, storage, and software optimization, to make an informed decision.

Cell phone radiation: the long terms effects

The debate over the harmful effects of microwave radiation is about to heat up again. A report issued by the Environmental Working Group has linked cell phone radiation to a number of nasty health problems.

Phone radiation levels
An interesting accompaniment is a chart of radiation output of all common cell phone models. The worst offenders on the list seemed to come from Motorola, whilst Nokia and Samsung generally reside in the lower end of the scale. A number of the popular smart phones were also pretty near to the upper limits, but then again, other popular smart phones weren’t.

The top 10 lists are as follows, according to TechRepublic:

Smart phones with highest radiation
1. T-Mobile MyTouch 3G (1.55 W/kg) – (also known as the HTC Magic)
2. Blackberry Curve 8330 (1.54 W/kg)
3. Palm Treo 600 (1.53 W/kg)
4. T-Mobile Shadow (1.53 W/kg) – (also known as the HTC Shadow)
5. Palm Treo 650 (1.51 W/kg)
6. Blackberry Curve 8300 (1.51 W/kg)
7. Blackberry Bold 9000 (1.51 W/kg)
8. Sony Ericsson P910a (1.50 W/kg)
9. HTC SMT 5800 (1.49 W/kg)
10. BlackBerry Pearl 8120/8130 (1.48 W/kg)

Smartphones with lowest radiation
1. Nokia 9300i (0.21 W/kg)
2. Nokia 7710 (0.22 W/kg)
3. T-Mobile MDA Wiza200 (0.28 W/kg)
4. Samsung Impression SGH-a877 (0.35 W/kg)
5. Nokia 9300 (0.44 W/kg)
6. Samsung Propel Pro SGH-i627 (0.47 W/kg)
7. Samsung Gravity SGH-t459 (0.49 W/kg)
8. BlackBerry Storm 9530 (0.57 W/kg)
9. Nokia E90 (0.59 W/kg)
10. Nokia N96 (0.68 W/kg)

Nokia 1100 used in online banking hack

 

Can you even imagine that the durable and very simple GSM Mobile phone produced by Nokia with a 96x65 monochrome screen can be programmed to receive messages directed to a different phone number, thus receiving sensitive bank or other data. This flaw was brought to authorities' attention after some phones were sold for over US$32,000.

New Version Bluetooth – 3.0 much better now

The Specs for new version of bluetooth are out. The specification are now known as Bluetooth 3.0 High Speed and for a good reason - it promises up to 8 times the speed of version 2.0 + EDR (Enhanced data rate) for a theoretical maximum of 24Mbps. Isn’t that great. The increase in speed is achieved thanks to the 802.11 radio protocol. Note that 802.11 is not Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi is just an implementation of the 802.11 standard. Despite this, the new Bluetooth version aims to help Bluetooth do a lot of the things that Wi-Fi was better at.

Excessive mobile use can cause mental problems like depression and lack of concentration

A new research suggests excessive use of mobile phones can hinder sleep, trigger fatigue and stress and cause mental problems like depression and lack of concentration. At the recent annual meeting of the U.S. Associated Professional Sleep Societies (APSS), Dr. Gaby Badre from Sahlgren's Academy in Gothenburg, Sweden said teenagers who use their phones excessively are more prone to stress and fatigue. The study focused on 21 healthy people between 14 and 20 years of age with regular work or study hours and without sleep problems. The subjects were divided into two groups. Compared to the control group, who made less than five calls and/or sent five text messages a day, the experimental group made more than 15 calls and/or sent 15 text messages a day. And the latter suffered from increased restlessness, had more careless lifestyles, consumed more stimulating beverages, and reported difficulty falling asleep, disrupted sleep, and more susceptibility to stress and fatigue. Only one-third of them ate breakfast, compared with most in the control group.

Brain wave scan of children with high mobile use showed a similar sleep cycle pattern to that of a depression patient. Conversely, depressive and impulsive children tended to rely more on mobile phones. Experts say those who are at risk to becoming an addict are nervous without a phone, always tinker with it and are at ease only after making a call or texting someone. Doctors also note that texting can be more harmful than phone calls to mental health and sleep levels. Prof. Ha ji-hyun, of the Department of Psychiatry at Konkuk University Medical Center says, "A call is simultaneous communication, but an SMS is not. You can get nervous while waiting for the response."

Sony Ericsson CyberShot S001 8.1MP camera phone

It’s a real beauty of a camera phone. The Sony Ericsson CyberShot S001 features an 8.1 megapixel autofocus EXMOR CMOS sensor with LED flash, Smile Shutter and Face Recognition technology, Image Stabilization and auto exposure/white balance alongside sensitivity of up to ISO 1600.

Some other features of the CDMA/GSM slider handset include a 3.3″ OLED display with 854 x 480 resolution, Bluetooth connectivity, Integrated GPS, and 1Seg TV tuner. You can get it from KDDI in Japan in our choice of black, gold, green and pink this March.
No word on price yet, but we’re guessing it will be reasonable. It’s a real shame that those outside of Japan won’t be able to lay their hands the Sony Ericsson CyberShot S001 at retail stores.

Samsung Omnia

The Samsung Omnia has plenty of features and includes some interesting Samsung-developed enhancements. It does fall short when it comes to full finger input and the fact that the stylus is attached outside the body of the phone is also a little disappointing.

Since the launch of the iPhone, almost every other cellphone manufacturer has been trying to duplicate Apple’s success by giving their customers a product that works or looks similar to their ‘fruity’ competitor.

The Omnia is Samsung’s take on the booming touchscreen phone market, and while it is able to pull it off, there are still a few things that I’d like to see changed.

From a design point of view, the Omnia is a sexy device with a large 3.2-inch touch-sensitive display. Its specifications are not bad either and it features a 624MHz Marvell PXA312 processor with 128MB RAM and a 256MB ROM.

Impressively, the Omnia has an 8GB or 16GB flash drive for storage, depending on the model you opt for. While you can expand the memory further using a MicroSD card, you have to unfortunately remove the battery to access the memory card slot. An external memory slot would have been preferred, but with a minimum of 8GB, we don’t foresee this to be too big an issue.

The Samsung Omnia is powered by Windows Mobile 6.1, and we were pleased to see that they had developed a slightly modified version of the user interface to make it a lot easier to navigate the phone using finger gestures.

A stylus is included in the box, but the only way to attach it to the phone is via a mini-lanyard. After the first day of use, it became irritating and we reverted back to using finger taps to use the phone.

While Samsung had made an effort to make this an easy process, the problem is still largely the operating system, which was not really designed for finger input only. Many parts of the operating system require a stylus to effectively navigate it.

While this is not Samsung’s fault, this is a trend we have spotted on all Windows Mobile devices that take on the Apple iPhone market.

Impressively, the Omnia also sports a 5-megapixel camera and LED flash. While there is no optical zoom, the image quality is still rather impressive and for candid shots, it will certainly not disappoint.

Much like other devices in this market space, the Omnia puts up a good fight when it comes to multimedia playback. Samsung has even developed its own media player for this phone.

Their software, unlike Windows Media Player, is optimised for finger input and the audio and video quality was impressive to say the least.

Over the week or so that we used this device, we continually had mixed feelings about it. It does what it claims to do effortlessly, but the ‘external’ stylus and spotty finger input capabilities on some parts of the operating system left us a little disappointed.

While Samsung users or anyone wanting a touchscreen device will be happy with what the Omnia has to offer, slightly more advanced users might shy away from this device.
