Storage of an LG K40S has always been a problem, for many years mobile phones have not always been equipped with a sufficient amount of internal storage or an SD slot to increase the capacity of the latter. . However, for some time now the volume problem has been solved, now people are starting to look into the subject of RAM, this other type of memory is almost as important as the internal memory of your mobile phone. We are going to help you today if you ever have any questions on this subject.

Today you will find out how to check the RAM memory of its LG K40S? For this, we will first teach you what is the interest of the RAM of your mobile phone, then, how to know the RAM of your LG K40S , and, to conclude, if it is conceivable to increase the volume of RAM memory on your mobile phone.

What is the point of RAM on an LG K40S?

So we start this tutorial by showing you quickly what is and what is the RAM on an LG K40S. This nomanclature actually comes from the English “Random Access Memory”, it will allow you to store the data that the processor needs in the short term. It will in particular give you the possibility of running different 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 calculation on the side of the processor, it is the RAM that will take over and allow the processor to have all the files available.

A high amount of RAM memory will therefore be essential to have high performance on your LG K40S. 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. It will therefore be necessary to find the right pair of processor power / amount of RAM. At the moment, high-end cellphones are equipped with 8-10 GB of RAM which is huge!

How to know the RAM of your LG K40S?

We now move on to the verification part, which probably interests you the most, and to do this, we will now show you how to find out everything about the RAM of your LG K40S. To do this, first of all, we will teach you how to know the amount of RAM present on your mobile phone, then, how to know where you are with its use.

How to check the amount of RAM installed on your LG K40S?

We therefore start with the procedure to find out the amount of RAM equipped on your LG K40S. You will therefore have assimilated it, the higher the RAM volume, the more the processor will be able to perform tasks, letting others run at the bottom of the task without suffering from latency or slowing down. There are two alternatives to access this data:

  • Quite simply from the “Settings” of your LG K40S
    • Go to the "Settings" of your mobile phone
    • Find the menu "Device maintenance" or “Device optimization”, depending on the Android version installed on your LG K40S, this may be significantly different, but this is the menu in which you can observe the consumption of the various critical points of your mobile phone (battery, RAM , storage… )
    • Once in this menu, you will need to identify the “Memory” indicator and observe the maximum volume displayed, this is the amount of RAM with which your LG K40S is equipped.
  • Passing by CPU-Z
    • Download and install CPU-Z , small application that will allow you to have a lot of data on your phone
    • Open the application
    • Go to the section "Device"
    • You will find the amount of RAM installed on your LG K40S in the section "Total RAM"

How to check the RAM usage of LG K40S?

For find out the RAM usage of your LG K40S and to know if it ever saturates or if you ever still have the margin, there are also two methods which are almost identical to those which we have just presented to you just before. This is a test which can be interesting to understand the reason why your LG K40S makes you feel latencies. Let's go:

  • Through the configurations of your mobile phone
    • Go to the "Settings" of your mobile phone
    • In the "Device maintenance" menu, locate the "Memory" indicator
    • You will have a ratio as well as a progress bar that gives you the amount of memory used
  • Thanks to CPU-Z
    • Open CPU-Z
    • Go to the tab "Device"
    • In "Available RAM" you will see the amount of RAM available on your LG K40S, as well as a percentage to simplify interpretation

In the event that you notice that you have very little RAM available without necessarily having a lot of applications running, you should probably close background applications that saturate it. You can also clear the cache of your LG K40S to free up space and improve your performance.

Is it possible to increase the amount of RAM memory on an LG K40S?

In the event that you realize that your RAM is often full, it is quite legitimate to ask yourself if you can increase the amount of RAM on your LG K40S ? 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 mobile phone.
