Storage of an Honor 5C has continually been a problem, for many years cell phones have not necessarily been equipped with a large enough internal storage volume or an SD slot to improve the capacity of the latter. Despite everything, 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. In this guide, we are going to help you if you ever have questions on this topic.
In this guide you will see how to check the RAM memory of its Honor 5C? In this context, we will first show you what the RAM of your smartphone is used for, then, how to know the RAM of your Honor 5C , and, finally, whether it is possible to increase the volume of RAM memory on your smartphone.
What is the advantage of RAM on an Honor 5C?
We therefore start this tutorial by briefly explaining to you what is and what is the use of RAM on an Honor 5C. This acronym actually comes from the English "Random Access Memory", it will allow store data that the processor needs in the short term. It will for example allow you to run several applications at the same time, it is this which will therefore keep in memory all the data necessary to keep applications in the background. In the event that you play greedy games which require a lot of resources and computation on the side of the processor, it is the RAM that will take over and allow the processor to have all the files at hand.
A significant amount of RAM memory will therefore be essential to have high performance on your Honor 5C. Despite everything, it's a bit like everything, after a certain volume your processor will not be powerful enough to use it and you will therefore have unused memory. We will therefore have to find the right processor power / amount of RAM ratio. At the moment, the most powerful cell phones are equipped with 8-10 GB of RAM which is more important than many PCs!
How to know the RAM of your Honor 5C?
We will now move on to the control part, which probably interests you the most, and to do this, we will now present to you how to find out everything about the RAM of your Honor 5C. In this context, first of all, we will show 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 Honor 5C?
We therefore start with the process to find out the amount of RAM equipped on your Honor 5C. As a result, you will have assimilated it, the greater the volume of RAM, the more the processor will be able to perform tasks, letting others run in the background of the task without noticing any latency or slowing down. There are two solutions to access this data:
- Directly from the “Settings” of your Honor 5C
- Go to the "Settings" of your smartphone
- Locate the menu "Device maintenance" or “Device optimization”, depending on the Android version installed on your Honor 5C, this may be significantly different, however this is the menu in which you will be able to analyze the consumption of the various critical points of your smartphone (battery, RAM , storage… )
- Once in this menu, you will have to locate the “Memory” indicator and observe the maximum volume displayed, this is the amount of RAM with which your Honor 5C is equipped.
- Using CPU-Z
- Download and install CPU-Z , a small application that will allow you to have a large amount of details on your smartphone
- Launch the application
- Go to the top tab "Device"
- You will find the amount of RAM installed on your Honor 5C in the section "Total RAM"
How to control the RAM usage of your Honor 5C?
To know the RAM usage of your Honor 5C and to know if it ever saturates or if you ever still have the margin, there are also two possibilities which are almost the same as those which we have just presented to you in the previous part. This is a test which can be interesting to understand why your Honor 5C makes you feel latencies. Let's go:
- Going through your smartphone settings
- 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 find out the amount of RAM available on your Honor 5C, as well as a percentage to make it easier for you to interpret it.
In the event that you realize that you have very little RAM available without necessarily having many applications that work, it is probably necessary close background applications that saturate it. You can also clear the cache of your Honor 5C to free up space and improve your performance.
Is it possible to increase the amount of RAM memory on an Honor 5C?
In the event that you realize that your RAM is often full, it is absolutely legitimate to ask yourself if it is possible to increase the amount of RAM on your Honor 5C ? Unfortunately on Phone this operation is impossible… It will therefore be necessary to better manage your uses, close the applications that you do not use, or switch to a more powerful smartphone.
