Are you curious about the RAM capacity of your iPhone? Here you will find the complete list with the RAM capacity of each iPhone model, from the oldest devices to the latest models.
Have you ever wondered how much RAM Apple has included in iPhone devices over the years or how much memory your current iPhone has? Although the company does not publicly disclose this information, details about the memory emerge when devices are dissected and from other sources, such as Apple's supply chain.
Apple does not highlight or publish details about the RAM capacity of the iPhone for various reasons. One of the most significant reasons is that the performance of iPhones surpasses the competition, such as Android phones, even with a smaller amount of RAM. The secret lies in the fact that Apple produces both the hardware and software, precisely tuning its devices to operate as efficiently and powerfully as possible. iOS is the operating system dedicated to iPhone devices, while Android is found on devices from multiple smartphone manufacturers.
In essence, Apple focuses on the capabilities of iPhone devices rather than the technical specifications that power them. A concrete example was in 2019 when the iPhone 11 Pro Max, with 4 GB of RAM, outperformed the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ in a speed test, despite the latter having 12 GB of RAM. The tight integration between iPhone hardware and iOS compensated for a memory difference of over 8 GB. This is precisely why the iPhone's RAM capacity does not appear in technical specifications.
