Its always around 300mb in 4.2.1
Can you guys please tell me if this is normal or not? (Virus?)

I think 4.2.2 allocates more memory to the GPU, so it looks pretty normal to me.

same problem here, device heats up without doing much. It was not like this before.
I'm running 4.2.2, 2 users profiles

We know the allocation of ram is lower due to the GFX now getting more, thats a known fact.
The issue is that the use of ram in 4.2.2 is whack!
Device is getting hotter and slower the longer its on. Mine was baking just playing videos in the browser.
Run "OS Monitor" and see whats going on?

Performance difference 4GB <-> 6GB?

Hi guys,
Any idea if there is a significant performance difference between the 4GB and 6GB version? Do you think the 6GB version is worth the 50€ difference?
Best regards,
Sascha

Performance wise there is no difference only how much apps you can run in the background is limited by the amount of RAM.
Personal I bought the 6gb version only because the phone is cheap as hell and more ram can't hurt

thats what i get with the 6 gb ram..!!

i noticed when you run lots of apps ( keep them open), the 6g ram can maintain the speed better. which means you dont need to close apps. i sometimes see that if i open many files including multiple media on line video file, i can use as much as 4.5g of ram. but most time, i use about 3.5 g ram. so definitely a 6g is a better choice over 4g especially for the long term, as many apps a simply getting bigger and bigger.

Abnormal Android OS and Android System Battery consumption?

Hello guys, I've been using a 6P for about 3 weeks now, coming from a Nexus 4 with CM13.
I've been getting somewhat between 3,5h to 4,5h of SoT, but everytime I check the Battery graph, the Android System and Android OS consumption seems pretty high. On my old Nexus 4, these two never got over 6%, and I didn't found many reports of those 2 proccesses taking that much bettery.
I don't really know what it can be, and I feel that I should be getting a better battery life if I didn't have this problem.
Running Stock and Unrooted on 7.1.1. Anyone got this problem before?

Thanks!

That SOT sounds about right for this phone, unfortunately. Especially if you are on stock and don't use a custom kernel with battery easy profile.

There are thousands of report of people complaining that they are in the top list but that doesn't matter, what counts is your overall drain. Which is very dependent on the apps you use, your baseband station, and your usage. 4.5h is a good average for this phone.

A few tweaks/enhancements included again, I see!

I haven't noticed much of a difference with the update.
Haven't really dug into it that much.
Face unlock still sucks, and the fingerprint reader only seems to like one of the 4 fingerprints I have registered.
So yeah... not much different.

Yep, I feel ya on that...samsung is always non-specific as to what the device enhancements are (if any) when included with the security patch!

Samsung is very non-specific about their enhancements when it piggyback's with the current security patch as you know. I hope it pertains to battery draw, device lagging, for starters, but we can't be certain what they included? All-In, with the sec. patch, the update weighs-in at only 243mb
so I don't think the enhancements were too significant.

Battery Life: (Android 10 SP Aug 2021)

Hey Guys!
I used to get close to 7.50hrs of SOT when the phone was on Android 9 with Nokia 6.1 Plus but now it's close to 5.50hrs in Android 10 despite Battery Saver Optimization (Recently I replaced the Battery, Original Of Course).
Do you guys get the same result?

Again, it depends on the mode of using, but of course I doubt you have bought a battery in excellent condition even if it is the original one.
You can try some battery hardware or software analyzer to check the real capacity.

I bought the original same like before no issues on that. You can compare it yourself.
