The storage of a Motorola Moto G42 has often been a concern, for many years smartphones have not always been equipped with a sufficient amount of internal storage or an SD slot to improve 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 essential as the internal memory of your smartphone. In this article, we are going to help you in the event that you have questions on this subject.
In this guide you will learn how to check the RAM memory of its Motorola Moto G42? To do this, we will first explain to you what the RAM of your smartphone is for, then, how to know the RAM of your Motorola Moto G42 , and, to conclude, whether it is possible to increase the volume of RAM memory on your smartphone.
How useful is the RAM on a Motorola Moto G42?
We start this article by showing you quickly what is and what is the RAM for on a Motorola Moto G42. This acronym actually comes from the English "Random Access Memory", it will allow store data that the processor needs for a short period of time. In particular, it will give you the possibility of running different applications simultaneously, it is therefore the one that will store all the essential data in memory to keep applications in the background. If you 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 large amount of RAM memory will therefore be essential to have high performance on your Motorola Moto G42. 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 compromise between processor power and amount of RAM. This year, the most powerful Phones are equipped with 8 to 10 GB of RAM which is more important than many PCs!
How to know the RAM of your Motorola Moto G42?
We now move on to the verification part, which surely interests you the most, and, for this, we will now present to you how to know everything about the RAM of your Motorola Moto G42. To do this, first of all, we will explain 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 Motorola Moto G42?
We therefore start with the process to find out the amount of RAM equipped on your Motorola Moto G42. As you will have understood, the higher the volume of RAM, the more the processor will be able to perform tasks, let others run in the background without noticing any latency or slowdown. There are two solutions to access this data:
- Quite simply from the “Settings” of your Motorola Moto G42
- Go to the "Settings" of your smartphone
- Find the menu "Device maintenance" or "Device optimization", depending on the Android version installed on your Motorola Moto G42, this may vary, but 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 identify the "Memory" indicator and see the maximum volume displayed, this is the amount of RAM your Motorola Moto G42 is equipped with
- Thanks to CPU-Z
- Download and install CPU-Z , a small application that offers the possibility of consulting a large quantity of details on your smartphone
- Open the application
- Go to the top tab "Device"
- You will find the amount of RAM installed on your Motorola Moto G42 in the section "Total RAM"
How to check the RAM usage of your Motorola Moto G42?
To find out the RAM usage of your Motorola Moto G42 and know in the event that it saturates or in the event that you still have some margin, there are also two options which are almost identical to those we have just seen in the previous part. This is a test that can be rewarding to understand why your Motorola Moto G42 makes you feel latency. 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 see the amount of RAM available on your Motorola Moto G42, as well as a percentage to make it easier for you to interpret
If you realize that you have very little RAM available without necessarily having many applications that work, it is surely necessary close background applications that saturate it. You can also clear the cache of your Motorola Moto G42 to free up space and improve your performance.
Is it possible to increase the amount of RAM memory on a Motorola Moto G42?
If you notice that your RAM is often full, it is totally legitimate to ask yourself if you can increase the amount of RAM on your Motorola Moto G42 ? Unfortunately on Phone this opportunity is impossible… You will therefore have to better manage your uses, close the applications which you do not use, or switch to a more powerful smartphone.
