Having no problem in multi tasking. No lag or any thing.. Using multiple apps without any problem..

I have 4GB variant and ~2.25GB is free most of the time which is handling all the tasks.

Hey there...
I wonder if that's still true. My wife also has the 4gb variant, and even with 2gb of free ram, if she opens the camera app and takes a picture, EMUI (8/9) will kill the previous app (usually games). Apparently, the camera app eats about 1gb of ram.

Thats mostly due to battery management rather than memory managemen try to set manual battery management for those gaming apps .

It's already in manual mode (see attached). Even if it were due to power management, the phone was never idle or the screen shutdown. Nor even Greenify would act that fast. It must be ram management.
Any more suggestions?

I have never had any issues with my 4GB model on the Honor 10.

4GB RAM is it enough?

Hello! I am thinking about changing my poor old Oneplus One for this beast. But I am worried about the RAM quantity. At this moment I have 3GB RAM and I don't know if 4 will be enough.
Isn't TouchWiz 4GB = 3GB AOSP debloated?

Of course it is enough + you won't keep your phone for more than 2-3 years. TouchWiz got better, but not perfect. My phone still has ~1.5 GB of Ram left. My notebook has 4 GB Ram with fast SSD, don't see any slowdowns on Win 10 Pro.
With the poor ram management 2.5 GB is enough because at no point it uses more than that on our phones. I have apps refreshing when I come back but only half of ram is being used.
in my opinion, 4gb is not enough..... For that kind of high-end phone, samsung should have put 6Go at least into it. I'm talking about ram managment which is pretty bad in android and when you take a look at speedtests (even if this is not reflecting real daily uses) you can see than phone with 6go of ram are able to keep many apps in memory way better than the s8. When you start to run heavy apps or games, the built-in memory killer kills a lots of background app and then when you need to switch back into an other recent app, the phone almost reload it :'( That's frustrating
4GB Ram is enough. More RAM means more apps running in background which means more battery consumption. So 4GB looks a good balance here atleast for S8 which has only 3000 mah battery.
i don't think so excuse me. Of course, more ram maybe means more battery consumption but i prefer that and kill apps runing in background manually to keep battery life rather than the os kills things that i still need :/
When you have 4gb then 4gb isnt enough, when you have 6gb then 6gb isn't enough... its never enough.
4GB is enough for most any smartphone. I also have a OnePlus 3 with 6GB ram and while it can keep more programs running in the background, it never totally accesses the entire 6GB ram. Read this XDA article on RAM: https://www.xda-developers.com/the-ram-conundrum-do-we-really-need-6gb-ram-on-android/
4 is enough, and please after buying it do not ask about why just a little of it is free! The ram is for holding services and apps in background so cpu should not work again to bring them up, if it's filled do not be sad, it's natural.

Why should you want to keep many apps in memory? The S8 loads them so quick anyway.
Who needs in real day use to keep in memory 5-6 games plus 6-7 apps ? That's what they are doing in speed test , but in every day use it's not need for 6-8 GB ram in this moment. In my opinion for the manufacturer it's simpler to put more ram in a phone instead a better over all optimization.

On boor around 3.7/3.8 GB is free and then after using few apps it goes down to 2.2-2.5 Gb free and haven't noticed any lag for anything I throw at it except Facebook app which I strongly believe is application issue and not phone. May be not optimised for EMUI 8 or Oreo amd sucks always. Same issue on any EMUI phone with Facebook
The v10 once again continues the Huawei/honor tradition of implementing swap via zram.
I had 3 GB free RAM and yet it set aside a swap space of 2240 MB and was using 400 MB of it - for no reason.
I wrote the first swap-killing mod for the stock rooted EMUI for the honor US launch and will be providing the same for the new phone.
Lag spikes hit everywhere and we know from experience that goes away when swap is turned off.
You have 6 GB RAM and Android has its own app caching service that works a treat.
Eventually you will run out of RAM on anything.
It's pointless to live with lag spikes just so that synthetic claims about having 2 GB more virtual memory can be made.
I have the 6GB RAM model of the Honor View 10 and it handles multitasking very well.

RAM Management is too good in Redmi Note 7 pro, I have 6GB RAM Variant there is no lag. And keeps every apps in background, It loads the app without reloading it.
Using the 4GB version, I see the RAM usage constantly is @ min 2GB even without any Apps, when few apps are loaded it is down to only 1GB free space, is this normal?
just for basic knowledge, i want to know what is the Ram type of RN7 Pro?? is it LPDDR4??

Yup! What else it can be ?
Good multitasking with 6GB variant.

Ram management is good, not that much good but a little good one. Only 1 gigs of ram is free for other tasks
Having not really good experience with RAM i guess, when i listening to a bible app, it doin force close after locking the screen for a time.

Me too.
4gigs ram version here, and around 1gb free ram available most of the time.
Now I'm really curious about you guys who get the 6 gigs version. Do you get 3gb free ram?

Knowing that, now I'm thinking to sell my 4gb R3Pro and upgrade to the 6gb version.
Or waiting for Realme X, hoping it will be released in my country.

The default is 10min Then it kills the apps after locking screen...but you can disable it and continue reading XDA forum
anyway... YouTube video reviews shows... it quite good at multitasking (4gb ram version )
I don't know if this happens to people or not, sometimes my redmi 9 when I open youtube in picture in picture mode, sometimes suddenly even though the ram is still empty likes to close itself, as well as when I listen to music with apple music, when I close the application for while playing eg twitter, suddenly the application closes and the music stops. it bothers me sometimes
multitasking is terrible on the 3/32 version. As soon as you close an app and open another one it kills it from the ram, so when you open it again it reloads. It does hthis despite usually having 700mb free. At idle it typically has 1.3gb unused ram. I am using it without memory extension (which can add an extra 0.5gb of virtual ram), as I've found memory extension to make the phone slower, and turning it on does not improve anything at all. I'm using MIUI Global 12.5.5 (Stock), no debloat or anything.
