The storage of a Vivo Y76 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 improve the capacity of the latter. However, for some time the volume problem has been solved, now people are starting to pay attention to the RAM component, this other type of memory is almost as important as the internal memory of your smartphone. In this article, we are going to help you if you have any questions on this subject.

In this guide, you will discover how to check the RAM memory of your Vivo Y76? To do this, we will first explain to you what is the interest of the RAM of your smartphone, then, how to know the RAM of your Vivo Y76 , and, finally, if it is conceivable to increase the volume of RAM memory on your smartphone.

What is the point of RAM on a Vivo Y76?

We start this tutorial by briefly explaining to you what is and what is the purpose of the RAM on a Vivo Y76. This term actually comes from the English "Random Access Memory", it will allow you to store data that the processor needs for a short period of time. For example, it will give you the possibility of running several applications simultaneously, it is therefore the one that will keep in memory all the data necessary to keep applications running in the background. If you ever 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 data available.

A high amount of RAM memory will therefore be important to have high performance on your Vivo Y76. However, it's a bit like everything, after a certain volume your processor will not be powerful enough to exploit it and you will suddenly have unused memory. It will therefore be necessary to find the right compromise between processor power and amount of RAM. At the moment, high-end smartphones have 8 to 10 GB of RAM, which is more than many PCs!

How to know the RAM of your Vivo Y76?

We now move on to the verification part, which probably interests you the most, and, for that, we are now going to show you how to know everything about the RAM of your Vivo Y76. To do this, first of all, we will explain to 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 Vivo Y76?

So we start with the process to find out the amount of RAM equipped on your Vivo Y76. As you will 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 feeling latency or slowing down. There are two ways to access this data:

  • Simply from the "Settings" of your Vivo Y76
    • Go to the "Settings" of your smartphone
    • Find the menu "Device maintenance" or "Device optimization", depending on the Android version installed on your Vivo Y76 this may change, however this is the menu in which you can monitor the consumption of the various critical points of your smartphone (battery, RAM, storage… )
    • Once in this menu, you will need to locate the "Memory" indicator and see the maximum volume displayed, this is the amount of RAM equipped on your Vivo Y76
  • Passing by CPU-Z
    • Download and install CPU-Z , small application that offers the possibility of having a lot of details on your phone
    • Launch the application
    • Go to the top tab "Device"
    • You will find the amount of RAM installed on your Vivo Y76 in the section "Total RAM"

How to control the use of the RAM of your Vivo Y76?

To know the RAM usage of your Vivo Y76 and to know if it saturates or if you still have some headroom, there are also two possibilities which are almost identical to those we have just seen in the previous part. This is a test that can be interesting to understand why your Vivo Y76 makes you feel latencies. Let's go:

  • Through the configurations of your smartphone
    • 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 Vivo Y76, as well as a percentage to simplify your interpretation

If you ever notice that you have very little RAM available without necessarily having a lot of active applications, it is probably necessary close background applications that saturate it. You can also clear the cache of your Vivo Y76 to free up space and improve your performance.

Is it possible to increase the amount of RAM memory on a Vivo Y76?

If you ever notice that your RAM is often full, it makes perfect sense to ask yourself if it is possible to increase the amount of RAM on your Vivo Y76 ? However, on a phone, this operation is impossible... You will therefore have to better manage your uses, close the applications you are not using, or switch to a more powerful smartphone.
