The storage of an OPPO A74 has continually been a problem, for many years mobile phones have not systematically been equipped with a large enough 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 look into the subject of RAM, this other kind of memory is almost as important as the internal memory of your phone. We are going precisely in this article, to help you in the event that you have questions on this subject.

In this article you will see how to check the RAM memory of your OPPO A74? To do this, we will first explain to you what the RAM of your phone is used for, then, how to know the RAM of your OPPO A74 , and, to conclude, whether it is possible to increase the volume of RAM memory on your phone.

What is the RAM used for on an OPPO A74?

We therefore start this guide by showing you quickly what is RAM and what is it for on an OPPO A74. This nomanclature actually comes from the English "Random Access Memory", it will allow store data that the processor needs for a short period of time. Among other things, it will allow you to run several applications at the same time, it is therefore the one that will store all the essential data in memory to keep applications running in the background. In the event that you play greedy games that require a lot of resources and calculation on the processor side, it is the RAM that will take over and allow the processor to have all the data available.

A large amount of RAM memory will therefore be important to have high performance on your OPPO A74. However, 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 is therefore necessary to find the right compromise between processor power and 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 OPPO A74?

We now move on to the verification part, which probably interests you the most, and, in this context, we will now show you how to know everything about the RAM of your OPPO A74. To do this, first, we will explain how to know the amount of RAM installed on your phone, then, how to know where you are with its use.

How to check the amount of RAM installed on your OPPO A74?

We therefore start with the procedure to find out the amount of RAM equipped on your OPPO A74. As you will therefore have realized, the higher the volume of RAM, the more the processor will be able to carry out tasks, let others run in the background of the task without suffering latency or slowdown. There are two ways to access this data:

  • Simply from the "Settings" of your OPPO A74
    • Go to the "Settings" of your phone
    • Locate the menu "Device maintenance" or "Device Optimization", depending on the Android version installed on your OPPO A74 this may vary, however this is the menu in which you can monitor the consumption of the various critical points of your phone (battery, RAM, storage… )
    • Now that you are in this menu, you will need to locate the "Memory" indicator and observe the maximum volume displayed, this is the amount of RAM equipped on your OPPO A74
  • Passing by CPU-Z
    • Download and install CPU-Z , a small application that will allow you to retrieve a lot of data on your phone
    • Launch the application
    • Go to the top tab "Device"
    • You will get the amount of RAM installed on your OPPO A74 in the section "Total RAM"

How to control the use of the RAM of his OPPO A74?

To find out the RAM usage of your OPPO A74 and to know in the event that it saturates or in the event that you still have the margin, there are also two possibilities which are almost the same as those which we have just discovered just before. This is a test that can be rewarding to understand why your OPPO A74 makes you feel latency. Let's go:

  • By going through the configurations of your phone
    • Go to the "Settings" of your 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 find out the amount of RAM available on your OPPO A74, as well as a percentage to make it easier for you to interpret it

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 OPPO A74 to free up space and improve your performance.

Is it possible to increase the amount of RAM memory on an OPPO A74?

In the event that you notice 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 OPPO A74 ? Alas on Smartphone 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 telephone.
