As soon as it goes on sale and as always when a new device is launched, the iPhone 7 was put to the test in different types of tests. In one of these tests we could see how the greater amount of RAM in the Galaxy S 7 does not translate into better performance, but at that time we also recognized that the comparison was not entirely fair. What seems more fair is to check if the 3G RAM iPhone 7 Plus they are noticeable with respect to the 2GB of his younger brother.
This test has been made by the YouTube channel PhoneBuff and, as usual, they have carried out a speed test in which both devices will have to make two turns of a "circuit" in which they will have to open a certain number of applications, the same in each terminal. If we take into account that both devices share a processor and operating system, do you think the extra gigabyte of RAM of the 5.5-inch model will be noticed? You have the answer in the following video.
Test tests the 3GB of RAM of the iPhone 7 Plus
As you can see, in the first round the result is almost traced, winning the iPhone 7 Plus by only 33 hundredths. If we take into account the human factor, we can say that it is a tie. The things already change in the second round, when you have to open the applications that are in the background. It is then when it is noticed that the 2GB of RAM of the iPhone 7 are not the same as the 3GB of RAM of the iPhone 7 Plus and the second finishes 10 seconds before the first.
At first, analysts such as Ming Chi Kuo said that the iPhone 7 Plus would have 3G of RAM because it would need that extra gig to manage the information collected by the advanced camera, but I can't help but think that Apple has wanted to give that extra performance to its largest iPhone to invite us to buy the most expensive iPhone. And it is that, until the iPhone 6s, the 5.5-inch iPhone had a slightly lower performance than the 4.7-inch model, so the Plus model was only superior to the normal model due to its optical image stabilizer (OIS) and its battery . Are you surprised by these results?
