How does ram plus actually work??

[ijsiskekboi]

I am very confused abt ram plus as some say it uses internal storage while others say it uses a technology to zip more data in the ram and dont use internal storage.

I myself keep it on cuz my devices have 4gb ram and i see some help from ram plus.

Same for my phone having 3gb ram but in that ram plus is on 4gb so how does it work?

It's useless

Your Hardware ram is the actual ram which is lot faster then software ram from RAMPLUS

i get tht but some say ramplus doesnt use internal storage instead it almost zips data so more ram is free

It does use internal storage which is reserved 8gb and can't be used except ramplus

If you try to switch ram plus 2 4 6 or 8gb still your internal storage size will remain same because 8gb already taken and reserved for ramplus

In my opinion if storage is less then UFS 3.1 then ramplus should be turned off because slower read/write it will make device slower and consume more battery

Devices like ufs 2.1/2.2 or Emmc storage it's a big no no for ramplus

Trust me even if you turn Ramplus off it won't make any difference in multi tasking in fact you will get better battery life and longer life span for your internal storage because no unnecessary read/write from ramplus
