I have a S22 phone and like everyone knows it has a horrible battery. I ve read a post saying that there s no use in having RAM plus activated. What exactly are the pros and cons of deactivating it and if it improves the battery?

    I turned the RAM Plus on on my Tab S7 FE because it’s a bit laggy (I think the 4GB of RAM may be the reason) and I’ve seen an improvement. Do you think it’s only my perception? I also have read that it damages the storage, so should I turn it off?

      For devices below 6gb of ram, RAM Plus should help.

      At 4GB your device would go into swapping, and that is even more computationally expensive than RAM Plus.

        Thanks. I don’t think the Tab S7 FE us a lower end device, that’s why I can’t comprehend its 4GB of RAM gif

          S7> 865 5G+ chipset 8 GB RAM, S7 FE> 778G chipset 4GB RAM

          S7 FE is definitely a lower end device.

          Sure there’s also the A series that’s lower, but it doesn’t change the fact that the FE series of devices are considered lower end devices provided as copium for those who cannot afford the high end ones.

            I get your point, but the S7 FE is a midrange tablet. Using your logic, every Samsung phone would be a lower end device if it’s not the S23 Ultra.

              Mid-range IS a lower range. It’s not the lowest end, but any device in the range is still a lower-end device.

              After all, there IS only 1 flagship in a fleet of ships. The S series used to be called a flagship series, but nowadays, everyone knows that the Ultra and the other S series phones have a feature disparity. Can one call the S series flagship phones when they don’t have all the bells and whistles, surely not.
