Just want to know everyone's opinion on this feature in 2026. What is the pros and cons of this feature on a flagship model. I currently have the Ultra but this thread can be educational for all S25 models.
I see no cons; If you are a heavy user, all the extra generated data that can't find room in the low RAM scenario goes to so called "Swap" file. Like in the windows, pagefile or Linux swap file (the swap data is actually stored on its own partition) Android is based on Linux. So lets call this swap or Pagingfile. I only see pros. The lower the actually installed RAM the more sense it makes to use RAM Plus. I have 16 and use RAM plus.
It depends on how many of and how RAM intense apps are opened at the same time. Even at 12GB of physical RAM, I see no point in RAM Plus unless one is multitasking on such a high level like gaming then using facebook, Instagram etc. Just note that using RAM Plus (swap file/ZRAM) and actually being RAM intensive in uses like in gaming etc, can tax the CPU a little more as it has to use some computational power, as the virtual RAM is slower in the input/output exchange when any excess memory is needed to be pulled from physical storage (flash drive) where RAM Plus resides as allocated, not the RAM itself.
@CharlsonDaHo There are no cons to offering the option. I doubt that most people have any need to ever tweak the setting, but to have it available can be useful to some.
