The storage of a Blackview BV5500 has always been a problem, for many years smartphones were not systematically equipped with a large enough internal storage volume or an SD slot to increase the capacity of the latter. However, in recent years, the volume problem has been solved, now people are starting to look at the RAM component, this other type of memory is almost as important as the internal memory of your smartphone. We will precisely in this guide, help you if you have questions on this topic.

In this guide you will see how to check the RAM memory of its Blackview BV5500? For this, we will first explain to you what is the interest of the RAM of your smartphone, then, how to find out the RAM of your Blackview BV5500 , and, finally, if it is possible to increase the volume of RAM memory on your smartphone.
