Hi all
Wondering if there is an actual noticeable difference in day to day usage between the two models? I know the bench test show marginal performance improvements for the 32GB over the 16GB model but would this be seen in every day use?
Reason I ask is that I may be swapping a 16GB model for a 32GB model but this comes with it's downsides so wondering if it's even worth it....
Forgot to say that I do know that the 32GB model also has the 3GB RAM
Thanks

i would say yes.
i have a 2gb one and my oncle a 3gb ram. my home screen always refresh when i exit a app.
and his apps open some how faster (cause they are in cache of the ram) so i would say yes. its better even in every day usage. opening apps. and switching
Hmmmm that's good to hear then. Well I have the 2gb model right now and have the 3gb one coming tomorrow... It's coming from Hong Kong though so slightly worried it will be fake!
It doesn't matter in everyday use at all...

Cheers, have seen that video before but still didn't help me . It won't cost me anything extra swapping to the 32GB model but it is a HK model so I'm a bit warey about it breaking or being fake etc.
It matters mate... Extra 1gb makes the difference aside from the additional storage...

This is interesting to know.. How exactly this 1gb makes the difference in everyday use?
Have you heard that anybody raised an issue with shortage of RAM while using G3 with KitKat or Lollipop in normal conditions?
3gb is snappier than than 2gb variant... Based on my own experience... As is without tweaks... ?
Don't no about 16gb but my 32gb 3gb ramz the dog
My 16 gb version is snappy as hell, it depends on the user too and how you tweak it.
I traded my 3gb Note 3 for the 2gb G3....I kinda regret it now because my Note 3 was nice and snappy but with the G3 I notice quite a lot of lag

Amount of RAM does not have anything with lag that you have on G3. 3GB version also have that lag sometimes.

I have a highly debloated 3gb version, with normal running i have about 500MB free ram but this can drop down to 400MB. If you only have a 2GB phone, it would be 500MB short of ram, even more on a stock rom, meaning apps get stopped to make room for new app to start up. Extra ram means more file data is stored in cache. My phone never lags
Notice that there are 3 models available now for Honor 6x, 3G+32G, 4G+32G and 4G+64G, which one will you go?
By the way, detail phone specs here, but in Chinese:

I am using a 3gb and don't notice any difference to my mate 9 with 4gb

3gb is large enough to for everyday use nothing would max it out
4GB RAM with 64GB ROM is Perfect
4GB + 64 GB is no doubt better in multitasking and more storage but I did not see huge difference in 3GB and 4GB model apart from RAM. 3 GB is not bad at all either and multitasking is smooth in 3 GB model.
Just ordered a 3Gb, storage is expandable so 32Gb will not be a problem.
If it would have been having Separate SIM slot like 5X, then 32GB will be my pick.
Since that is not the case over here, I will go for 64 GB variant.
I don't need the second SIM, is in my Nexus....

I'll get the 3gb version for my father
Seems that 64gb variant is exclusive for China.
Is 4GB RAM more better than 3GB Ram?

Not much...there are hardly any difference in RAM part..if you are concerned about stotage then thats your personal choice but 3GB for android is more than enough for high end gaming, multitasking or anything. I am on 3GB model and always have more than 1 GB free even if playing alphalt 8 or other games

Think so as it seems it was not launched in US also during CES..correct if anyone have got the 4GB model in US or other regions.
Which should I buy 4gb version or 6gb version?
Depends on your needs. If you're not a "power user", 4gb ram will just be fine. Personally I'd go for 6gb RAM version, as it doesn't hurt to have more RAM (dunno about price difference though) and it's sort of "future-proof".
4Gb ram is enough for a normal user and also for a medium level gamer, but if you a hard gamer and you also use multiwindow feature a lot then you shout go for 6Gb ram verrient.
hi. The 6GB model exists only CN and EN language. Is it possible to install global rom on the 6GB model in the future? The Global rom for 6GB going to be created ????
It's also available in India so no worries about Global ROM
4gb cause the price difference in the 4/64 and 6/64 gb is to big to get 6gb ram and not get 128gb internal.
even the 3/32 is good enough and 20€cheaper but for 20€ i dont mind to get double internal and 4gb ram. just to be like nice
Hi,
Any news about the model with 6GB of RAM?
I want to know the final over price compared with the 4GB version; and the expected release date.
Regards.
I bought 6gb version from Amazon.in but not yet shipped. Shipping starts from 7th March this is what they have provided the update. Also this is not 128GB version. It comes with 6GB RAM and 64GB ROM. They would have proivded 128Gb instead of 64GB since M30 higher version comes with 128GB and lesser price i.e.,18k

Thank you!
And which price has the 6GB/64GB compared with the 4GB/64GB in India?
Rs. 22,990
I bought the 6GB/64GB A50 today at the Samsung Cafe store today. Was informed that the 128GB variant won't be launching in India anytime soon.
Hi,
I feel Samsung is joking with us:
- In India you can purchase 4G+64 and 6G+64.
- In Philippines they accept pre-orders only of 6G+128.
- In Europe only the 4G+128 is published.
The 4GB of RAM version is a pure joke! Only the 6GB of RAM version has enough memory to run smoothly.
So, why in some markets (like Europe) the 6GB version ins't available?

Pixel 3 and 3xl too have 4gb ram. But, do they slow down? No, because it depends on optimization and ram management. 3gb is sufficient for now.
Hi,
Sorry for people that thinks 4GB of RAM isn't a joke!
Please, take note about this:
- My previous 2018 & 2017 mid-range smartphones have 4GB of RAM, so it's time to go forward.
- All flagships of 2019 have 6, 8 or more RAM, so 6GB isn't much memory.
- Android Q & R will expect to have 4GB of minimum RAM, so for the two next upgrades 4GB will be the minimum.
- From 2019 the stock memory range is entry-level-->4GB, mid-range-->6GB, premium-->8GB.
Please, take note that this model is for 2019-2020, so the 4GB it's a cut-down version. And the problem is: In Europe (perhaps in other areas too) only the version with 4GB will be avaiable. And this in fact is a joke!

No it's a common misconception that future phone will need more RAM , I am using a 4 yr old device with just 1.5 GB Ram and I can Play PUBG Mobile (It's at least playable, because it's a SD400 Series processor). 4 GB RAM is enough for a smartphone
My phone has Android pie (Bootleggers ROM) and it works Perfectly fine with 1.5 GB ram.
Pixel and iPhone have only 4GB RAM but still they are flagships, due to their software optimizations.
DONT EXPECT YOUR PHONE TO BE FASTER IF IT HAS MORE RAM, IT ALL DEPENDS UPON THE PROCESSOR
I have malaysian version with XME firmware and 6GB ram with 128 GB storage. Anyone knows if they are going to send new update for this version because I am stuck on february patch while others have moved on to april update.

I am using it. I bought it for 25.5K TK.
Hi,
As Samsung doesn't like to sold the 6GB version of the A50 in EUROPE, I'll purchase the A70... that has ONLY 6GB of RAM in EUROPE (and 8GB in India).
WHY THIS?
I just downloaded AIDA and my S20 is showing 14Gb Ram only, does anyone has the same issue?

1.8 gb of that 16 is reserved

Every phone has a certain amount of RAM reserved for the OS and etc.
You never get the full % of the amount of RAM they say the phone has.
hmmmm actually you just need to get used to the marketing speak that manufacturers use to cheat consumers.
In computer speak, 1 GB = 1024MB, or 1,073,741,824 Bytes
In marketing Speak, 1 GB =1000 "MB" or 1,000,000,000 "bytes"
Your phone's OS talks in computer speak, hence 16,000,000,000 bytes = 14.9 GB
the "RAM reserved by OS" is just a con. The OS reserves only about 500mb to 1gb of ram.
The phone manufacturers got "worried" about people questioning them, and starting faking display in their in system apps showing 16,000,000,000 bytes as 16GB so that non IT people won't be making any noise. However, if you use a proper app, you'll see only 14.9 GB.
Perfectly normal.
There is indeed 16GB physical ram installed.
Isn't it the same with SD and micro SD cards?like I have a 1 TB. micro SD card but as soon as you pop it in to the phone it registers 0.93 gb.
