Huawei honor 8 RAM - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Every honor 8 reviews says that HONOR 8 has ,4GB dedicated ram.
I've installed like four programms that shows up, i have only 3GB RAM.
On some ASUS (My friends phone) He has 4gb rams and in these programms it shows 4gb for him.
What could be that problem? What should i do to fix that RAM?
Thanks!

No every review don't state every Honor 8 has 4GB of ram. The standard ram is 4GB and 3GB is on selected models..
Edit...typo

There is a model with 3 gigs of RAM which is like 30 to 50 bucks cheaper. I have seen it only as gold color.

Can you go to you device settings and scroll to the bottom to
ABOUT and tell us what it's state your Ram is please?
And you were not sold a 3GB ram device marked up as 4GB?

If you talking about free ram is 3gb of 4gb.
Emui uses 1gb of ram

System shows 2,3gb of ram free.
But cpu-z shows 1,3gb of ram free.
So, some games start lagging really hard and screen brightness gets lowered by itself.

How much ram? Exynos vs Snapdragon.

Hi,
I know that s7 with exynos shows ~3.5 GB RAM(all). Disk info, cpu-z, aida etc.
What about s7 with snapdragon(g930)?
Can anybody show screenshots from these apks?
Thanks.

I'm not sure why you need a screenshot.
Both devices have 4GB of hardware RAM.
RAM available at runtime will be dependent entirely on the user, carrier bloat, and ROM (stock / custom)

In official specs only.
I'm not asking for free/used, asking for all ram.
Check yourself - disk info - google play store.
4Giga=4*10^9; 4*10^9:1024=3906,250MB but 4GB=4098MB.
Screen from s7 with exynos(3,562GB):
Around 500MB is reserved for the System AFAIK so that is why there might be less than 4GB in that program.

Its for gpu memory too, people seem to forget that the ram is shared with the gpu too.

I is worth to pay more for 8GB ram version ?

I don't care about internal storage memory, but does 8GB RAM instead of 6GB will give a noticeable difference ?

Storage speed.

Hi, what is difference of storage speeds between 128gb and 256gb model?
How big difference is between ufs2.1 and 3.1 on POCO? ?

This the same ufs 3.1 on each variant.
The difference is on ram, lpddr4x on 6/128 and lpddr5x on 8/256 variant.
K30 pro has ufs3.0 option

Ok thanks, great news.
Can you really see the difference od LPDDR5?
Here are my AndroBench results on 8/256 DDR5. Perhaps someone with 6/128 DDR4 can post theirs to compare?

Interesting! Not a lot in it, apart from your SQLite results are a lot better, which doesn't make any sense.

Because first time i wanted to buy the 8gb version and the difference is about 100 euro...
And there is no difference

OK, I've rebooted and run the test again. The SQLite results are much closer now. But yes no real difference. There is an advantage with more ram (more apps in memory) and more storage as there's no SD slot, but performance-wise they're almost the same.

Can you retest after reboot please ? To compare with the same operating mode as the other user, I find it pretty crazy that the 6/128 is better (and happy because I have it ?)

Strange, more efficient on some and less good elsewhere, in any case it shows that we should not regret having taken the cheaper model !
Great phone, good results
As you can see, in Aida results, my 6/128 go have lpddr5x!

Maybe, because I flashed xiaomi.eu rom's! Sometimes new rom changes name of your phone.
On aosp rom my last phone (k20 pro) change for pixel

This is an error from Aida64!
Ram is lpddr4x

LoL?
I think lpddr4x and lpddr5 is same
Maybe this is not only about Ram capacity, but also about Ram management by the Kernel - firmware. I think Miui Ram management can be better.

Storages are basically the same models, but is there real difference in the RAMs? Can we test both of them in some app. ?

Is 6GB of RAM enough for 4K video editing on MIUI?

Hi guys,
I sold my Zenfone 6 (6GB of RAM) and want to buy Poco F2 Pro. Is 6GB of RAM enough for MIUI?
Zenfone 6 was ok with 6GB of ram but their ROM is much more closer to stock Android.
I could buy version with 8GB of RAM for 55 euros extra. What do you think?
Thank you very much!

I game a lot and multitask....i ha e yet to experience any issue with 6gh...but if i could come back i would buy the 8gb..just for the sake to have more...in real life you will not need it... But for future...8gb will be safe. Depends how long time you wanna keep it...6-12months? 6gb will defo do.

Thank you. Yes I Had Zenfone 6 for 8 months, before that I had XZ2 for 12 months so i am probably shortening the period The thing is I used to edit 4K edit video on Zenfone 6 in VLLO app and it worked just so so. So im a bit afraid 6gb would not have to be enough with next version of MIUI or VLLO app.
Even 4 GB is fine. I don't get why smartphones need so much RAM since most people don't use them for heavy multitasking

Oh now I understand. I can't really answer that question. I would say the more you have, the better. But I 'd rather use a PC for video editting.

Look .... You will have no issues with 6gb and 865.... But again.. if you have spare 55e spend it on 8gb ram...
I repeat... If i could turn back i would buy 8gb... 55e is nothing...and then yku have piece of mind that you have the best possible option...and 128gb is not enough.. 8gb 256 is way to go for 55e....if you can afford it
@Evzzza
Hey
6GB is LPDDR4X RAM
8GB is LPDDR5
antutu 568976 and 589986 respectively
But please guys, consider keeping your phones longer... your kids will thank you later! (and you could even get a PC and a screen with your saved money, cause editing 4k vidz on a 6,6" 1080p screen... )
Cheers!
RAM doesn't affect performance.
Be 100℅ sure of that. Android ram management is absolutely not like windows OS for example.
On android the os targets the ram needs at what u're doin' actually unlike windows which provides full ressources to all the programs u're running to.
The SoC is the mandatory key. And damn u'll got a 865 !! Even with 4gb of ram 4k editing could be possible no doubts :laugh:
Whatever variant u pick u'll never run out
Please, it's NOT the same type of RAM.
It should affect performance (not in a HUGE way indeed), hence the different benchmark score.
("The SoC" 865, you probably mean the CPU?)

i don't even know why i'm responding, but hey...
why would you think i wanna FOOL you, BRO?
the cpu is part of the soc, SO is the ram... even on wikipedia you might get that concept....
the benchmarks are from Antutu, as quoted... get both phones and run your owns if you fancy it
plus, as you know, it is NOT the same type of memory.
AGAIN, the difference is certainly imperceptible, but there IS one.
Does it worth the extra bucks? THAT would be the question... @Evzzza keep in mind you double the storage as well
@kkosnuss, if we follow you, all things being equal, an android system with 2GB of RAM and the same config with 12GB of RAM will deliver the same performances?
...get yourself a break ^^

And yep I got both pocos at home in their respectives configurations. I've been lazy in doin' benchmarks. One 8/256 is running stock the other 6/128 crdroid

Question 8GB=LPDDR5 6GB=LPDDR4X?

Hi, has anyone bought the 6GB variant of the Edge S? Can you please confirm if it's DDR5 or DDR4? HwInfo shows LPDDR4X in my 6GB.
If so, is my RAM 2/3 the speed of the 8GB version?
Thanks

the 6gb version is class 4? I did not know, I have the 8gb of ram, to see if someone else confirms, thanks for the information unless it may be an error in the HW info application
I also suspect it's read out wrong, as Motorola adamantly say it's DDR5 all the way. If you can please run CPU X or Device Info HW on your 8GB device and let me know if it shows the same error, I will be very grateful for you for clearing up my doubts. Thanks!
Motorola Edge S 8gb RAM is showing LPDDR5
Thank you so much!
