The storage of a HUAWEI P20 Lite has always been a concern, for many years smartphones have not always been equipped with a large enough internal storage or an SD slot to improve the capacity of the latter. However, for some time, the problem of volume has been resolved, now people are starting to look at the subject of RAM, this other type of memory is almost as important as the internal memory of your phone. In this article, we are going to help you in the event that you have questions on this topic.

In this article, you will find out how to check the RAM memory of its HUAWEI P20 Lite? To do this, we will first explain to you what is the use of your phone's RAM, then, how to know the RAM of your HUAWEI P20 Lite , and, finally, whether it is possible to increase the volume of RAM memory on your phone.

What is the RAM memory for on a HUAWEI P20 Lite?

We therefore start this tutorial by showing you briefly what is and what is the use of the RAM on a HUAWEI P20 Lite. This acronym actually comes from the English "Random Access Memory", it offers the possibility of store data that the processor needs in the short term. It will in particular give you the possibility of running several applications at the same time, it is this which will therefore keep in memory all the essential data 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 high amount of RAM memory will therefore be essential to have decent performance on your HUAWEI P20 Lite. However, 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. You have to find the right pair of processor power / amount of RAM. At the moment, the most powerful phones are equipped with 8 to 10 GB of RAM which is huge!

How to know the RAM of your HUAWEI P20 Lite?

We now move on to the verification part, which certainly interests you the most, and, for that, we will now present to you how to find out everything about the RAM of your HUAWEI P20 Lite. To do this, to begin with, we will explain how to know the amount of RAM installed on your phone, then, how to know where you are with its use.

    • Now that you are in this menu, you should identify the “Memory” indicator and observe the maximum volume displayed, this is the amount of RAM with which your HUAWEI P20 Lite is equipped.
  • By using CPU-Z
    • Download and install CPU-Z , small application that allows you to have a large amount of information on your phone
    • Launch the application
    • Go to the section "Device"
    • You will get the amount of RAM installed on your HUAWEI P20 Lite in the section "Total RAM"

How to check the RAM usage of its HUAWEI P20 Lite?

To know the RAM usage of your HUAWEI P20 Lite and know in the event that it saturates or in the event that you still have room, there are also two possibilities which are almost the same as those we have just presented to you beforehand.

  • By going through the configurations of your phone
    • Go to the "Settings" of your phone
    • 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 HUAWEI P20 Lite, as well as a percentage to make it easier for you to interpret

In the event that you realize that you have very little RAM available without necessarily having a lot of active applications, it is certainly necessary close background applications that saturate it. You can also clear the cache of your HUAWEI P20 Lite to free up space and improve your performance.

Is it possible to increase the amount of RAM memory on a HUAWEI P20 Lite?

In the event that you identify that your RAM is regularly full, it is totally legitimate to ask yourself if you can increase the amount of RAM on your HUAWEI P20 Lite ? However on Smartphone this operation is impossible… You will consequently have to better manage your uses, close the applications which you do not use, or switch to a more powerful phone.
