Is there any noticeable performance difference between the 8gb and 12gb models?

No. And 12gb is not future proof unless u want to keep ur phone for more than 3-4 years. 6gb right now is more than enought. Note 9 keeps open more than 20 apps/games with 6gb. For resale value 12gb my get u more.

The Honor 9 comes with two different options for RAM. You can get either 4GB or 6GB. During the launch event, Honor showed a video speed test where the 6GB RAM Honor 9 smoked the Galaxy S8.
In this video, you can see it's about on par with the OnePlus 5.

So which version will you be getting?
The 4GB one, it is already a bit expensive in Europe (at least in comparison to China) and I don't think I need the extra 2 GB anyway
I'd like to take the 6 GB version. But in Europe only the 4 GB version is available. And I don't think buying it in China just to get those 2 extra GB is worthy, since you'll have to pay more after customs and you're probably losing warranty.
Any thoughts about that? Are you buying official store EU or from China importers?
Thanks
See no mention of this.
Have they backpedaled on max RAM?

yes less than on the s20 ultra unfortunately 12gb only.
they say things have been so optimized on the note and faster internal storage 12 is enough.
the note is supposed to be THE sammy flagship yet its less so in the ram dept (and a few others) than the S20 ultra.
not good
UFS? Is 3.1 so they say 16GB is not needed
I've hit 12GB RAM on my S20 Ultra in use. It will use more ram if it has it just like a 128GB Windows 10 box will be using close to 10GB idle.
And the fact the screen is still 60Hz at QHD.
Doesn't seem to be much of an upgrade to me.
Perhaps if they were giving me $750 trade in, maybe, just maybe but I think this may be a pass which makes it the first time I didn't get a Note.
Waiting for S30 leaks now!
I feel it is downgrade more than upgrade
Weird how some regions it’s 8GB of ram. 12GB here.
Is ram that big of a deal? Isn’t 8GB enough?
In germany we get the exynos one... Baddest cpu ever...

How much ram do you have in Germany ?
Exynos 12gb/256gb for Europe or 12gb/512gb with support dual sim
Think we have the 8gb ram Version... But battery life is **** with the exynos also throttling so much. We have hot weather in germany now and my friends s20+ is running hot without gaming... He tried factory reset and swapping the device nothing helps.
Are you sure you're not looking at the regular Note 20? The Note 20 Ultra in the US and Europe shows 12 GB RAM.
Yes , it is note 20 ultrs
LTE models of Note 20 Ultra comes with 8gb ram only , it is available in regions that don't sell 5g models like Egypt
Where have you seen the Note 20 Ultra with only 8Gb RAM? I think you have misread this somewhere!
Only the Regular Note 20 has 8Gb.
Would be interesting if you could show a link to what you've found.
EDIT: Ah you are in Egypt. That still sucks, I hope you get it cheaper though?

Samsung sell it in Egypt for about 1320 $ 256 8gb ram
This really irritates me. Bad enough that it’s not snapdragon. But knocking off 4gb too. And no 5G. Yet the same price
E9825 12/256 to SD865+ 12/256 is just fine for me lol
Honestly if I had the Note 10 + I would not be upgrading. Its just not enough of a leap in my opinion. Especially so with the hampered device in your area.

Yeah, if you look on Samsung's site at the Spec Sheet, the Ultra 5G models have 12GB, but Ultra LTE Models only have 8GB. Not sure why, but it's there on their site. Well, ONLY the Ultra 5G models have 12GB, the rest are stuck at 8.
Thankfully, I'm getting a 12GB version.

I played with the N20 Ultra and I can't see a reason to upgrade. Even the 120hz comes on when it wants and you cant use the highest resolution with the 120hz. I will wait until next year when they get the bugs out. And whatever you do.. DON'T BUY THE NOTE 20. Doesn't make sense to spend $1000 on 1080 screen with no SD card..just a waste.
not sure if this is the right forum.... i am considering the note 10+ 5g.... i am currently looking at the 976u and the 976b variants.....i understand the u variant is not rootable (locked bootloader) and the b version is rootable... also are the wireless channels the same, or would i lose something in using the european version in the US......any help or advice anyone can give would be appreciated....TIA

thank you... i will post in that forum
I'd get the 512 gb 12 gb of ram 4G Snapdragon variant if you don't want to root.
The 5G speed gains aren't that great and the battery life will take a hit. Average 20% speed increase is what I've seen reported.
I have the former and it's a great phone.
You can get a Lexar V30 512 gb SD card for about $75. Get the Buds+ or Buds Pro.
You now have a dual drive 1 tb handheld PC...

Hi there, i'm planning in buy the early bid of the poco x3 pro, but i can't decide what memory cut should i take. i plan to keep it with the stock firmware for at least a year, then jump on custom rom.
In your opinion wich version will have the higher support? should i really mind the 2gb of ram difference?
I think support will be the same, at least I never heard a ROM mentioning the RAM and memory size requirements for the same model (other specs). If you plan to create a lot of videos and edit them with Apps I would go for 8/256. The 256 Gb are UFS 3.1 which is a lot faster then 2.1 which other devices in this price range have and I have seen none with 8/256 so cheap as this device. Snapdragon 860 + 8/256 GB for me are the top specs at this price.
the 2gb of ram do really make some difference? i do not need the extra space, i just want a device "future proof", i have used my moto g5 plus for nearly 4 years, and i'm going to change it just because the battery and the usb plug are quite dead (changed already both)
I can tell you that no noticeable spee difference, but will prevent app reloading in the background. I went for the lower version and everything seems fine.
@surcof :
Save the few bucks for the 2 GB of RAM when you're not a heavy multitasker or use very memory intensive applications on your phone. 6 GB are pretty enough for Android in 2021 and surely for the 4 next years of use.
The 128 GB ROM are definately not worth the higher price because of the hybrid Slot of the device. For 50 € you can buy a fast highend SD-Card with more memory.
