The storage of a Google Pixel 6 pro has always been a problem, for many years the phones were not systematically equipped with a sufficient 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 take an interest in the RAM component, this other kind of memory is almost as essential as the internal memory of your smartphone. We are going precisely in this guide, to help you if you have any questions on this subject.
In this guide, you will discover how to check the RAM memory of your Google Pixel 6 pro? To do this, we will first teach you what is the interest of the RAM of your smartphone, then, how to know the RAM of your Google Pixel 6 pro , and, finally, whether it is possible to increase the volume of RAM memory on your smartphone.
What is the point of RAM on a Google Pixel 6 pro?
We start this guide by showing you briefly what is and what is the RAM for on a Google Pixel 6 pro. This acronym actually comes from the English "Random Access Memory", it offers the possibility of store the data that the processor needs in the short term. In particular, it will allow you to run different applications at the same time, so it will store all the data necessary to keep applications in the background. If you ever play greedy games that require a lot of resources and calculations on the processor side, it is the RAM that will take over and allow the processor to have all the files at your fingertips.
A high amount of RAM memory will therefore be important to have high performance on your Google Pixel 6 pro. Nevertheless, it's a bit like everything, after a certain volume your processor will not be powerful enough to exploit it and you will therefore have unused memory. It will therefore be necessary to find the right ratio processor power / amount of RAM. At the moment, high-end smartphones have 8 to 10 GB of RAM, which is more than many PCs!
How to know the RAM of your Google Pixel 6 pro?
We now move on to the control part, which probably interests you the most, and, to do this, we will now reveal to you how to know everything about the RAM of your Google Pixel 6 pro. To do this, first of all, we will teach you how to know the amount of RAM installed on your smartphone, then, how to know where you are with its use.
How to check the amount of RAM installed on your Google Pixel 6 pro?
We therefore start with the technique to find out the amount of RAM integrated in your Google Pixel 6 pro. You will therefore have assimilated it, the greater the volume of RAM, the more the processor will be able to carry out tasks, let others run in the background without noticing any latency or slowdown. There are two alternatives to access this data:
- Directly from the "Settings" of your Google Pixel 6 pro
- Go to the "Settings" of your smartphone
- Locate the menu "Device maintenance" or "Device optimization", depending on the Android version installed on your Google Pixel 6 pro, this may change, but this is the menu in which you will be able to monitor the consumption of the various critical points of your smartphone (battery, RAM, storage, etc.)
- Now that you are in this menu, you will need to identify the "Memory" indicator and see the maximum volume displayed, this is the amount of RAM with which your Google Pixel 6 pro is equipped.
- Using CPU-Z
- Download and install CPU-Z , a small application that will allow you to retrieve a large amount of information on your smartphone
- Open the application
- Go to the top tab "Device"
- You will get the amount of RAM installed on your Google Pixel 6 pro in the section "Total RAM"
How to control the use of the RAM of your Google Pixel 6 pro?
To find out the RAM usage of your Google Pixel 6 pro and to know if it saturates or if you still have room, there are also two options which are almost identical to those which we have just discovered just before. This is a test that can be rewarding to understand the reason why your Google Pixel 6 pro makes you feel latencies. Let's go:
- Through the configurations of your smartphone
- Go to the "Settings" of your smartphone
- In the "Device maintenance" menu, identify the "Memory" indicator
- You will have a ratio as well as a progress bar that gives you the amount of memory used
- With CPU-Z
- Open CPU-Z
- Go to the tab "Device"
- In "Available RAM" you will see the amount of RAM available on your Google Pixel 6 pro, as well as a percentage to make it easier for you to interpret
If you ever realize that you have very little RAM available without necessarily having a lot of open applications, it is probably necessary close background applications that saturate it. You can also empty the cache of your Google Pixel 6 pro to free up space and improve your performance.
Is it possible to increase the amount of RAM memory on a Google Pixel 6 pro?
If you ever find that your RAM is often full, it makes a lot of sense to ask yourself if you can increase the amount of RAM on your Google Pixel 6 pro ? Unfortunately on Smartphones this opportunity is impossible… You will therefore have to better manage your uses, close applications that you do not use, or switch to a more powerful smartphone.
